Maybe you never heard about them before but they are the frist serial killers ever known in the US because not many people know about them and today we gonna discover more about them
This deadly pair from 18th century America left a bloody trail across the frontier as they slaughtered men, women, and children to satisfy their bloodlust
He is widely thought of as the first documented serial killer in America, but that isn't entirely accurate. Though he is definitely among the first, the Harpe brothers came long before he did.
Born Joshua and William Harper, Micajah "Big" Harpe and Wiley "Little" Harpe killed between 39 and 50 people across Tennessee, Kentucky, and Illinois in the late 1700s.
The roaming Harpe clan spent the next 12 years in Nickajack, an American Indian village settled by Cherokee and Chickamauga Indians near present day Chatanooga. Even after the British surrendered in Yorktown in 1781, the brothers continued to lend their support to the Indians in their attacks against settlers.
Their murderous tendencies began showing later in the war when they joined a rape gang in North Carolina. This group regularly murdered, stole, and destroyed the property of Patriot colonists. They also kidnapped and raped teenage girls.
So at the end its better that we live in 2016 now and not in the 1700s
