The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children has distributed a new facial rendering of the "Swimsuit Boy," the last unidentified victim of "Candy Man" killer Dean Corll.
Between 1970 and 1973, Corll killed at least 28 teenagers and young men in Houston and Pasadena, ranging in age from 13 to 20. Each was raped and underwent sadistic abuse on the killer's "torture board" before they were strangled or shot with a .22-caliber pistol. The unidentified boy was found wearing a striped pair of Catalina brand swim trunks with an attached belt, pictured.

Henley – eligible for parole in October 2025 at 70 years old – shot Corll dead on Aug. 8, 1973. Fearing for his own life, he allegedly screamed, "I can't go on any longer! I can't have you kill all my friends!" before pulling the trigger, Texas Monthly reported.
