A New England serial killer has been unmasked — but he doesn’t appear to be connected to rampant rumors in the region sparked by the discovery of over a dozen lifeless bodies.

Kevin Lino, 38, was charged in August for the murder of two Massachusetts homeless men in 2012 and 2014 while he was already serving time for the murders of two others across the US.

“Mr. Lino is a serial killer,” said Middlesex County DA Marian Ryan, whose office brought the latest charges after new evidence came to light.

“The Department of Justice defines a serial killer as someone who has taken the life of two individuals in separate situations,” Ryan told Boston 25 News . “In this case we have already convictions in two. We’ve now brought charges in two more.”
