Michael Patrick Ihde (October 11, 1958 – October 9, 2005) was an American murderer, rapist, and possible serial killer who was convicted of raping and murdering at least two women in the states of California and Washington between 1984 and 1986. Sentenced to death in the former, he died on death row in 2005.
Ever since his incarceration, it has been speculated that Ihde was responsible for additional murders that occurred in the San Francisco Bay Area, and most prominently has been suggested as an alternative suspect in the death of Bibi Lee.
