Leslie Burchart
Leslie Leon Burchart (August 3, 1949 – August 1, 2002) was an American serial killer who killed three homeless men and wounded a fourth in Richmond, Virginia, from 1994 to 1996. He was convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment for these crimes, but not long after, he confessed to killing four women as part of the so-called Golden Years Murders.

He later recanted his confessions and denied responsibility, and since there has been no physical evidence linking him to the murders, Burchart's involvement in the serial murders remains questionable. He died behind bars for his original convictions in 2002.

Since then, multiple suspects have emerged and one was even convicted for several of the killings, although his actual guilt is disputed.
