June 1, 1927 - András Pándy
What distinguished Pándy from many violent offenders was the sustained domestic concealment of his crimes — killings spread across four years, within his own family, in a household where he held religious authority. His victims included multiple former partners and children, and the investigation that eventually unraveled the case required cross-border cooperation between Belgian and Hungarian police years after the disappearances began. The discovery of additional unidentified remains in one of his properties suggests the full scope of his actions may never be precisely known.
From Wikipedia
András Pándy (1 June 1927 – 23 December 2013) was a Hungarian-Belgian serial killer, convicted for the murder of six family members in Brussels between 1986 and 1990.
Originally from Hungary, Pándy is believed to have killed his wife, ex-wife, two biological children, and two step-children who disappeared mysteriously, with the assistance of his daughter, Ágnes. Additionally, he started abusive incestuous relationships with Ágnes and a third step-child who survived. In 1992, Belgian and Hungarian police began investigating Pándy, which resulted in his arrest in 1997 and conviction in 2002. Furthermore, the skeletal remains of seven more unknown women and one man were found in one of his houses. A religious teacher and clergyman, he was dubbed "Father Bluebeard" by some of the Belgian press.
Pándy was serving a life sentence without parole when he died on 23 December 2013.
