GTA 5 has many myths and legends, including the legend of the killer behind the Infinity Murders. Merle Abrahams is known to GTA 5 players as the serial killer who killed eight people and buried them somewhere in San Andreas.

The interesting part about Merle Abrahams is that he has not appeared in the game even once. His existence is known to GTA 5 players only because he is mentioned many times throughout the game. Very little is known about his background.

He is better known as the Infinity Killer due to his obsession with the number 8 and the infinity symbol. He was of the opinion that the number 8 is just infinity turned towards the side. This psychotic phase of his led him to kill eight male joggers and hence they were collectively referred to as the "Infinity Murders". The bodies of these persons were never found, and are believed to be buried at different places in San Andreas.

The police did catch Merle Abrahams, but he never admitted that he was the murderer, although he did confess his attraction towards the number 8. He died in jail in 2004, awaiting his trial for the murders.
