SERIAL KILLER

Micajah “Big” Harpe, born Joshua Harper (before 1768 – August 1799), and Wiley “Little” Harpe, born William Harper (before 1770 – February 8, 1804), were murderers, highwaymen and river pirates who operated in Tennessee, Kentucky, Illinois and Mississippi in the late 18th century. They are often considered the earliest documented serial killers in the United States history.
