Gary Ridgway mystery solved: Here's why the Green River Killer was briefly moved to King County Jail

With 49 confirmed murders, Ridgway became the most prolific serial killer in American history. But many believe the actual number is much higher. In a 2014 interview with me, Ridgway claimed he killed as many as 85 women.
