GA. SERIAL KILLER MAY BE BEHIND MORE KILLINGS: COPS
GEORGIA cops believe serial killer Charles Lendelle Carter left behind more corpses than he has been credited with. Now serving a life sentence, the 43-year killer, was convicted of three slayings in the Atlanta-area earlier this year. But detectives are looking at Carter in two more cold case killings in the area that have his earmarks.
The killer lived with his mother at a hotel and worked as a chef at a variety of Atlanta restaurants and had been arrested 15 times between 1987 and 1997 for theft, deception, battery, aggravated assault and other offences. While being questioned in the three sex slayings, Carter admitted he killed a man in DeKalb County in the early 1990s. In November, Carter was charged with the March 16, 1992, shooting of Michael Leon Sneed, 35.
