August 27, 1948 - Peter Tobin
Tobin's crimes spanned decades and emerged only gradually, as investigations following his 2006 arrest uncovered victims dating back to 1991 — teenagers whose remains had been buried at a former residence. The pattern of violence, concealment, and geographic mobility made him difficult to identify as a serial offender for many years, and the full scope of his actions may never be known.
From Wikipedia
Peter Britton Tobin (27 August 1946 – 8 October 2022) was a Scottish serial killer and sex offender who served a whole life order for three murders committed between 1991 and 2006. Police also investigated Tobin over the deaths and disappearances of other young women and girls.
Tobin served ten years in prison for the rape, buggery and indecent assault of two girls in 1993, following which he was released in 2004. Three years later he was sentenced to life with a minimum of twenty-one years for the rape and murder of Angelika Kluk in Glasgow in 2006. The remains of two teenagers who went missing in 1991 were later found at his former home in Margate, Kent. Tobin was convicted of the murder of Vicky Hamilton in December 2008, resulting in his minimum sentence being increased to thirty years, and of the murder of Dinah McNicol in December 2009. Tobin spent his entire sentence at HM Prison Edinburgh.
Tobin was diagnosed as a psychopath by a senior psychologist following his third conviction.
