"...Denmark says Little also claimed he murdered Air Force nurse Karen O' Donoguhe in 1966 0r 1067. And showed this painting of the victim, whose body was never found."
The video claims that Little killed this woman in 1966 or 1967, but she was reported missing in 1969, and a potential murder date of 1971 on the portrait. I wonder if this makes her his first victim, or if the program's information is wrong? Did Karen simply travel to Florida after her reported disappearance like Mary Brosley? So many questions!
I updated Karen's thread a bit. Thanks for the direction. I’m having some trouble le cleTly delineating these cases and a,am afraid I report onwrong thread. I appreciate your help.

Little was asked by “60 Minutes” where he killed the most to which he replied, “Oh that’s easy, Florida and California.”
When he was asked what city he killed the most in, he said “Miami and Los Angeles.”
“He was, in my opinion, a good looking guy,” he said. “He was very muscular. He would just woo them over and he had a nice car and he would flash them with money.”
“He worked for the Sanitation Department in Coconut Grove and at some point he was a truck driver and a boxer,” said Denmark.
Authorities say he preyed on prostitutes and drug addicts and “60 Minutes” noted that they were “women he believed the police wouldn’t work too hard to find.”
“He was an older gentleman with very light eyes and easy to speak to,” said Denmark who has corroborated two of the Miami-Dade murders that Little has confessed to.
One victim was 25-year-old
Mariam Chapman, also known as
Angela. Denmark said she suffered from mental illness and was a prostitute who frequented Liberty City’s Turf Motel.
Her body was found in a field in
May 1976 near the memorable arches off Tamiami Trail just east of Krome Avenue.
“
Angela Chapman. He strangled her and put her body in a body of water where she was located by the Everglades,” Denmark said.
Denmark said Little is also tied to the murder of 34-year-old
Mary Brosley from Boston. He said she was separated from her family and suffered from alcoholism.
Her remains were discovered in
June of 1971 in a field near northwest 107th Avenue and 162nd Street, a remote area like the Everglades.
“
Mary Brosley,” he said. “We believe he choked her to death. He said he only partially buried her because the ground floor was too hard and he would never bury someone in Florida again because the ground was too hard.”
They were not among Little’s dozens of sketches of his victims but he did tell Denmark that he recognized their photos and
Mary Brosley’s necklace. bbm
With the serial killer approaching 80 and behind bars for life and in poor health, the Miami-Dade State Attorney’s office released a memo saying it would not charge Little with
Chapman and
Brosley’s murders.
Denmark said, “It’s a no brainer to close this and bring closure to the families.”
Chapman was from Indiana. Years after her life was taken so horribly in the Everglades, Denmark has not been able to find any of her loved ones.
Brosley was from Massachusetts. Her surviving relatives chose not to comment.
I need to go find
Mary and
Angela/Mariam’s thread’s for update.
