William Patrick Fyfe (born February 27, 1955) is a Canadian serial killer convicted of killing five women in the Montreal area of Quebec, although he claims to have killed four others. He allegedly killed his first victim in 1979 at the age of 24.
Billy Fyfe was born in Toronto, Ontario. He was raised by an aunt and in 1958 moved from central Canada to the Parc Extension area of Montreal. He lived as a normal child, although friends did have suspicions about the boy as he grew up.[citation needed] As an adult, he worked as a handyman.
