Incomplete chronology of Samuel Little’s arrests. Source: fbi.gov
Beginning in 1961, Little begins a l=dozen years long journey and which will only end in 2014, when he will be apprehended in the state of California and 2014 finally received a life sentence.
Samuel Little was convicted and served time in prison several times, but he also managed to escape punishment as a result of parole, amnesties, and other circumstances. His total length of incarceration during his lifetime exceeds 30 years.
Chapter 2 THE FORMATION OF SAMUEL LITTLE’S PERSONALITY IN A SERIOUS KILLER
Samuel Little had no formal education and was not trained in any profession. In his youth he had various part-time jobs, including working in restaurants and bars, but in general his life was connected with the criminal world.
Little liked to spend money on alcohol, drugs, gambling, and women. He often met women in bars and on the streets and spent large sums of money on them. He was also known to be prone to theft and robbery in order to make quick money and spend it on his pleasures. In general, Little led a very irresponsible and carefree lifestyle, which may also have influenced his psychological state and behavior.
As mentioned earlier, Little has had problems with women since childhood. His dysfunctional virginity and lack of healthy relationships with women as a teenager may have been one of the key factors that motivated him to commit female homicide. It is possible that Little
had feelings of revenge against women who rejected him or didn’t care enough.

He also blamed women for his failures in life and often blamed them for his problems. These behavioral patterns likely began to form at an early age and may have been exacerbated by traumatic events in his life, such as rape in prison.
The lack of family and intimate relationships, as well as the fact that Little was deprived of his mother’s care and attention as a child, may have caused him to feel lonely and helpless. The lack of close relationships and family support may have been one of the reasons for his desire to control and kill other people.
Little was surrounded by violence and a criminal lifestyle from an early age. He witnessed violence at the hands of his father and, growing up, among his surroundings, criminals and drug addicts.
Another reason that largely shaped Little into a serial killer was his chronic alcoholism and drug addiction: All together this affected his psychological state and increased his propensity for aggression and violence.
All of this combined, formed his position in life, in which he saw violence against another person as the norm. Hence the lust for power and control over people, and Killing as a method of realizing and satisfying these needs. And women as the most defenseless and most accessible option of prey.
There has been speculation that Samuel Little may have had a sexual disorder. However, there has been no official diagnosis or confirmation of this information. In interviews Little did not admit to having any sexual disorders or abnormalities. Instead, he said that his crimes were the result of an insatiable lust for killing and controlling his victims.
Samuel Little spoke about his psychology and motivations during interviews with journalists and law enforcement officials. He described himself as sexually aroused by killing women and referred to himself as «just a hunter.
Little said that he viewed his victims as objects, not people, and that killing was a way for him to satisfy his sexual fantasies. He also said he felt no guilt for his crimes and believed they were not his fault.
The physical characteristics of Samuel Little’s victims varied according to age, gender, and race.
However, there are some common traits that can be identified in many of the victims:
– Most of the victims were women or girls.
– Many victims were careless or lived on the streets.
– Some victims had drug or alcohol problems.
– Many victims had been raped before or after the murder.
– And many of the low ones were kidnapped and/or murdered in California cities.
Only twice did Little stray from his pattern. Once he killed a transvestite guy who introduced himself by a woman’s name and wore a woman’s dress. The deception was uncovered during the communication, but Little would not give up the crime. The second «breakdown» occurred when Samuel drowned the woman rather than strangling her.

Thus, we can briefly summarize the main reasons that shaped Samuel Little into one of the most famous serial killers in America and the world, who murdered over a hundred women across the United States.
Samuel Little’s reasons for killing are multiple and complex, and not always easy to understand. However, some known factors may have influenced his actions:
First, Little had a difficult childhood of domestic violence, poverty and instability. This may have caused him to develop various mental problems and feelings of alienation, which could later develop into a desire to kill.
Second, Samuel Little displayed sadistic tendencies and an interest in violence at a young age. He masturbated by looking at violent pornographic images. This may have led Little to seek out stronger and more extreme forms of violence, which could again lead to murder.
Third, Samuel Little was an alcoholic and a drug user, which may have impaired his mental state and affected his ability to make rational decisions.
Finally, Little may have been sexually motivated, since most of his victims were women or girls. Little himself did not admit to having any sexual impairments or deviations. Instead, he said that his crimes were the result of an insatiable lust to kill and control his victims.
Samuel Little was arrested more than 100 times for various crimes, including robbery, robbery, rape, and assault on women, but he escaped punishment or received relatively light sentences. He was also investigated for murder at various times, but the charges were not supported by insufficient evidence

The first time, in 1976, a young woman told police that Little had tried to strangle her and had brutally beaten and raped her in his car before doing so. Samuel, 36, was arrested, and the complainant’s clothes and jewelry were found in his car.
True, Little spent only three months in prison because his victim appeared to the court to be an unreliable witness, a girl who had engaged in
prostitution and drug use.
Similar cases have been repeated with Little many times. And each time the jury or the court acquitted Little for the same reason: the unreliability of the victims. In 1984, in Florida, he was acquitted of the murder of Patricia Ann Mount, a young mentally retarded woman, even though Little’s hair was found on her body.
In the 1980s Little began committing serial murders of women who were often homeless, prostitutes or drug addicts. He sought out his victims in various U.S. cities, moving from place to place, and killed them by strangulation or blows to the head.
