Little says he met the woman in Memphis sometime between 1990 and 1997.
He says they engaged in talk of prostitution at which time he strangled her, killed her, put her in the back of his car, drove her across the bridge to the Arkansas side of the Mississippi river and put her body in the river."
Police were unaware of the murder until last year when he confessed to a Texas ranger. The now-78-year-old then turned over a picture, one 16 sketches he drew of his unidentified victims.

Hagerman says MPD detectives have been going through old records of bodies found in the Mississippi, trying to find a match.
They also hope someone recognizes the woman Little drew, and they can finally provide some kind of closure.
"I found that doing this, giving people some little bit — not closure — a little bit of what you're giving them can help," Hagerman said.
If you recognize that woman, you are asked to call the FBI at 800-634-4097.
