Retired FBI agent and criminal profiler Candice DeLong examines the chilling case of Samuel Little, the most prolific serial killer in United States history. For nearly four decades, Little preyed on the society’s most vulnerable, evading justice as he carried out a staggering number of murders.

Candice unpacks the psychopathy and paraphilias that fueled his crimes, how he was able to kill undetected for so long, and how his confessions helped authorities close dozens of cold cases.
