Serial murder suspect admits to more killing, toll rises to 8

ANSAN, South Korea, Feb. 17 (Yonhap) -- Prosecutors said Tuesday a serial murder
suspect who admitted to killing seven women over the past two years has confessed
to murdering another woman.
The 38-year-old suspect, identified as Kang Ho-sun, admitted to killing seven
victims, including five reported missing between December 2006 and January 2007.
He confessed to the crimes after his initial arrest last month on charges of
kidnapping and murdering a female university student.
The Suwon District Prosecutors' Office said investigators are in the process of
exhuming the corpse of a woman believed to be the eighth victim, murdered in
September 2006.
