Dellmus Charles Colvin (born August 3, 1959) is an American serial killer who, during his employment as a truck driver, kidnapped and murdered at least six prostitutes in Ohio between 2000 and 2005. He was arrested after a DNA profiling exam exposed his guilt in two of the murders, and not long after he confessed to the other crimes and an earlier 1987 murder in New Jersey.[2][3] He is currently serving six life sentences at the Lebanon Correctional Institution.
