November 7, 1953 - Carl Eugene Watts

Carl Eugene Watts (November 7, 1953 – September 21, 2007), dubbed the Sunday Morning Slasher, was an American serial killer who murdered numerous women and girls between 1974 and 1982. Watts is suspected of being the most prolific serial killer in United States history.

Watts officially confessed to the murders of thirteen women but later claimed he had killed forty women and also implied that there were more than eighty victims in total. He would not confess outright to having committed these murders, however, because he did not want to be seen as a "mass murderer." Police consider Watts a suspect in ninety unsolved murders, and he is now suspected to have killed more than one hundred.
