List of serial rapists

A serial rapist is someone who commits multiple rapes, whether with multiple victims or a single victim repeatedly over a period of time.^[1] Some serial rapists target children.^[2]^[3]^[4] The terms sexual predator, repeat rape and multiple offending can also be used to describe the activities of those who commit a number of consecutive rapes, but remain unprosecuted when self-reported in research.^[5]

This list does not include serial killers who raped their victims then killed them; only serial rapists who non-fatally attacked their victims and raped them should be included here. This list should include serial rapists with at least three victims. Serial killers that raped at least three victims without murdering them are also included.
