October 10, 1957 - William Clyde Gibson

Gibson's convictions represent the confirmed floor of a potentially far wider pattern of violence — he sits on Indiana's death row for two sexually motivated murders while claiming responsibility for dozens more that investigators have never been able to substantiate. What the record does show is a trajectory of escalating criminality across decades, punctuated by the 2002 and 2012 killings that ultimately put him there. The unverified claims of 30 additional victims, whether true or self-aggrandizing, remain an open question that has drawn the attention of law enforcement in multiple states.

From Wikipedia

William Clyde Gibson III (born October 10, 1957) is an American serial killer and rapist who is currently on Indiana's death row for the sexually motivated murders of two women in 2002 and 2012, in addition to serving a 65-year sentence for a third murder committed in 2012. A habitual criminal noted for his increasingly violent streaks and his handlebar moustache, Gibson has claimed responsibility for upwards of 30 additional murders across multiple states, none of which have been confirmed.
