A man accused of killing his ex-wife and four other people including a South Jersey resident has revealed to authorities that he’s killed a total of 16 people.
The 47-year-old Sean Michael Lannon, who was arrested by US Marshals earlier this month after a multi-state manhunt, has agreed to New Jersey investigators that his killing spree included “11 drug dealers,” NJ.com reported.

Assistant Gloucester County Prosecutor Alec Gutierrez said in court Friday that Lannon “admitted to killing a total of 16 people.”
“Fifteen being in New Mexico and one in the state of New Jersey,” Gutierrez said, according to the news site. “It’s my understanding that the FBI is assisting New Mexico in their investigation.”
Lannon, of Grants, New Mexico, is charged in New Jersey with the death of his one-time youth mentor Michael Dabkowski, who was found beaten to death in his East Greenwich Township home on March 8.
Lannon allegedly told cops that Dabkowski sexually abused him as a child and that he went to the home to obtain sexually explicit photos of the pair.
Although he has only been charged in that killing, authorities said he is suspected in at least four others, including the death of his former wife, Jennifer Lannon, 39.

The couple, who had three children, had moved from New Jersey to New Mexico before they were divorced in 2019. Currently, there are no details about other victims that Lannon killed
