May 11, 1961 - Donald Piper

The confirmed cases span four years and two crime scenes, but investigators have long believed the full scope of Piper's violence extended further — four additional killings remain unresolved, with him as a suspect. His crimes targeted women in hotel settings across the Des Moines area, a pattern that points to deliberate method rather than circumstance.
