June 26, 1968 - Denis Waxin
His crimes spanned fourteen years across the Lille region, targeting children across a wide age range and combining sexual violence with murder in three cases. The length of the period before his apprehension, and the number of victims involved, made his case one of the more serious of its kind in modern French criminal history.
