Keith Jesperson

Keith Jesperson, also known as the 'Happy Face Killer,' is a convicted serial killer who terrorized the United States in the 1990s. He has confessed to the murders of at least eight women and is currently serving a life sentence at the Oregon State Penitentiary. His chilling moniker comes from the smiley face he drew on letters he sent to the media and law enforcement, which contrasted sharply with the brutality of his crimes. Jesperson's recent mention in the news stems from his alleged connection to a victim, Suzanne Kjellenberg, whom he claims to have met at a truck stop.
