A SUSPECTED serial killer reportedly made a sick confession about the disturbing motives that drove him to kill.
Michael Townson, 53, who is serving life in prison, is suspected of two other cold-case killings after his chilling alleged confession came to light.
Townson is currently undergoing a life sentence in a Florida prison for killing Sherri Carmanto in 2007.
He also allegedly admitted to the 1991 killing of Linda Little, according to an affidavit released on October 21, 2022.
He met the 43-year-old woman at a hotel bar 30 years ago.
In a chilling twist, Townson said was "no about it, no doubt," that Little was the woman he killed in 1991 when investigators showed him her photo, Fox News reported.

The convicted killer is also suspected of the murder of two other cold cases, the outlet said.
During an investigative interview, Townson highlighted his childhood sexual abuse as the reason he began targeting women.
He reportedly admitted that he "was sexually abused by his father and grandfather as a child and blames his mother and the other women in his life for not protecting him as a child," Daytona Police Chief Jakari Young said.
Chief Young concluded, "As a result, he developed a hatred for women."
