WASHINGTON - A 78-year-old drifter in prison in Texas has confessed to 90 murders and is being investigated as possibly the most prolific serial killer in US history.

Little, a 1.9m former boxer, was arrested at a homeless shelter in Kentucky in 2012 and extradited to California to face drug charges.
