Washington, Nov. 30, (THAINDIAN NEWS) Serial killer Tommy Lynn Sells has officially confessed that he had committed the sexually motivated murders. He confessed that he had indeed murdered Katy Harris and slashed the throat of her friend, Krystal Surles, who had witnessed the murder. It was this incident that finally led to the capture of the murderer. Krystal Surles actually lived even though her throat was slit, and lived on to tell the story. Lynn has also confessed having killed a lot of other people.

He even gave a graphic account of the manner in which he committed the murder of Katy Harris and slashed the throat of Krystal Surles. He had crept into the room where the two 10 year old friends slept and stabbed Krystal 16 times. He then slit Katy’s throat and left her for dead.

It was way back in 1990 that Tommy Lynn Sells had committed the crimes. He confessed to a forensic psychiatrist of the University of Columbia that he had killed at least 70 people in the United States alone. He was taken to crime scene, almost ten years after he had committed the crime, and there he recounted how he had carried out the murder. He has also described some of his other murders.

For instance the one in 1985, when he was in Missouri, working as a carny. He had met a 29 year old woman called Ena Cordt, who had invited him to her house. Sells confessed that they have had sex on mutual agreement. She had been killed a few days later. She had a four year old son who had also been killed by Sells. Sells confessed to having committed his first murder at the age of 16.
