    It is disputed of the crimes he committed but he confessed on being the Boston Strangler.

    Refer to Question #120418 (my question!)

    And no, I agree now that it will never be known if DeSalvo was the Boston Stangler, as he was murdered in prison about 1973 (if my memory is correct).

    Albert DeSalvo was considered the Boston Strangler, responsible for killing 13 women, but he was never charged. He was incarcerated for unrelated offenses when he was stabbed to death in 1973. The Strangler case was never closed. DeSalvo's confession remains the only evidence linking him to the case, and it contradicts autopsy findings.
