Reminder about Henry Lee Lucas, who would just confess to any murder because he kept being provided amenities in prison for doing so.
Do we have any significant evidence that Sam Little definitely committed these murders? To be clear, Little is definitely a serial killer. I just have my doubts that he isn’t just being used as a scapegoat since HLL.
From Oxygen
The FBI confirms Samuel Little is “the most prolific serial killer in U.S. history,” and says he has been “matched to 50 cases” of the 93 murders he claims he has committed. The FBI also releases a timeline of Little’s life and crimes in hopes of identifying more of his victims.

What is the difference between confirmed kills and admitted kills?
Just because a killer confesses to killing someone, doesn’t necessarily mean they did the deed.
If a serial killer is into notoriety and self promotion they might be willing to confess to anything. The police might want to shut a bunch of cold cases and the killer will happily admit to them, whether or not they were involved.
This famously happened in the case of Henry Lee Lucas
