List of murdered American children

This is a list of murdered American children that details notable murders among thousands of cases of subjects who were or are believed to have been under the age of 18 upon their deaths. Cases listed are stated to be unsolved or solved. This list is inclusive only of subjects who have an existing article on the English-language Wikipedia.
