LANDOVER, Md. - Prince George’s County police say a notorious serial killer has confessed to strangling a woman in the *area* in 1972 – a woman who has never been identified. ... Police say *Samuel* Little has a photographic memory, and told investigators exactly where he killed her.
Detective Bernie Nelson and Sergeant Greg McDonald recently flew to Texas, where they interviewed *Little* about a case they had been unable to solve for 46 years. ... Detective Nelson said it was an experience he will not soon forget.
“He described it in a way when I interviewed him – he was actually excited about the way – how he did this murder and, from what I understand, he gets excited every time he describes how he killed a female,” Nelson said. ... The veteran detective said it was an experience he will not soon forget. ... "In the 25 years that I have been in homicide I have sat across from countless killers and I can truly say that Samuel Little is a true monster,” Nelson said.
*Little* told the detectives that he met the woman at the Greyhound Bus Station at New York Avenue Northwest – the façade is still there. ... *He* told the investigators they hung out for a few days and then went for a ride up the BW Parkway to a dirt road near 197 – and that’s where he strangled her and left her in the woods. ... Little said it would have been around May of 1972. Her body was discovered by a man walking through the woods seven months later.
