June 16, 1970 - Roman Kobyzev

Kobyzev carried out killings across two separate periods of his life, with nearly two decades between his first series of murders and his last — a span during which he remained undetected and at large. The 2014 killings ultimately led to his capture, bringing a long period of criminal impunity to a close. His case is notable for the extended gap between offenses and the failure of earlier investigations to result in arrest.
