Kenneth Douglas, from the city of Hamilton, Ohio, was nabbed, charged and sentenced to 36 months in prison in 2008 after DNA from his semen was found inside the body of murder victim, 19-year-old Karen Range.
The crime only stumbled on light after Range's murderer David Steffen appealed his conviction for murder and rape. He admitted killing Range but denied defiling her.

Douglas pleaded guilty in 2012 to sleeping with 23-year-old Charlene Appling on the day she died after being strangled while half a year pregnant and having slept with another woman April Hicks.
Douglas was sentenced for an additional 36 months on all the offences.
Now he's admitted to abusing as much as 100 dead women between 1976 and 1992 while he worked the night time shift.
“I would just get on top of them and pull my pants down,” Hamilton said in a deposition to the 6th US Circuit Court of Appeals.
The extent of his crimes came to light as the families of Douglas’s victims were told they could sue his employee, Hamilton County, by the 6th US Circuit Court of Appeals.
Douglas said his behaviour was due to drug and alcohol abuse.
“If I wasn’t drinking, or hadn’t had anything to drink when I went to work, it wouldn’t happen. I would do crack and go in and I would drink and go in,” he said.
