June 12, 1939 - Bobby Jack Fowler
Fowler operated across two countries over more than two decades, evading serious consequences until a 1995 attack in Oregon led to his first conviction — by which point investigators suspected him of far more. The gap between his lone confirmed sentence and the breadth of activity attributed to him is what places him squarely in the record here.
