That's really good. Welcome to the last podcast on the left everyone. I am Ben Sterrett at the face of Marcus Parks
Hello, uh, New York Times best-selling author
Oh
We did it we beat Glenn Beck we did no one said it wasn't possible
We said sure we can we beat his bulk by an ass
We got Henry Zabrowski who you know this episode man, everyone's like why is he working on the Yorkshire accent?
Is that right? You can't even say you're
Is it Yorkshire? It's Yorkshire. It's Yorkshire. Yorkshire. I've got a bit of a salamander down in my pocket
Isn't it enough? Isn't it nice? I ha I think it goes from Mrs. Doubtfire
To chimney sweep and I have no control
Anywhere in the middle of it. Did you take like the pedophiles
Linguistic class like what are these sentences you you're talking about a bicycle and then you have a salamander in your pocket
I've got a salamander in my pocket. Do you want to pay a nickel to take a look at it? That's your penis, sir
Yes
There goes the crime there shites the crime
Right so today's episode this will be a two-parter, but the first part of the Yorkshire
Ripper
No, not Yorkshire. It's Yorkshire. We won a war so I don't have to say this, right?
Yorkshire the Yorkshire
Peter Sutcliffe aka the Yorkshire Ripper was an English serial killer who murdered 13 women and tried to murder seven others
mostly in West Yorkshire between 1975 and
1980 but why do I imagine Yorkshire as a place where like like Hobbiton like it's got little houses and people make their own milk bread and
People like they Tom that they told me culpits with a bit of a swagger
I don't know what that means. You know, I mean like I assume it's a lot of people like fishing with with sticks with just pieces of rope on them
Yeah, I sort of have a Disney fantasy when I hear Yorkshire. It's kind of nice
I mean, I I'm not picturing like the best food, but I'm picturing a lot of it in the windows
We've driven through it. Oh, yeah
This is very a pastoral it's a beautiful
Area of England outside of the cities the cities themselves though
Not quite so beautiful very urban a lot of grit very industrial cool. Is it just because they ran out of magic?
Well for the most part Sutcliffe's victims were casual sex workers in true form
It wasn't Intel Sutcliffe killed someone outside of the sex work business that the investigation went from a tabloid
Screamer to one of the biggest manhunts England ever saw
When you say casual sex worker, I just picture them all dressed like Best Buy employees
Just like it's like it's a nice casual khaki with a nice not-too-flashy red top
We are seeing the rise of the casual sex worker with only fans. That's what it is
Peter's method of murder was multiple hammer blows to the head
Followed by the mutilation of the victim's body and while he was not quite as intricate as saucy Jack
These mutilations were still brutal enough to earn the ripper label. I'd say that his MO was one of the more
idiosyncratic
Types of killing styles. Yeah of any serial killer that I have read about in the past where besides
Richard Chase who is just he was just the fucking the Ralph Lauren of
Putting a baby in a blender. He really came up with a dream. I don't know how he Steve Jobs that let's say
Are you describing Richard Chase as idiosyncratic? I would say that, right?
Yeah, very particular
Well, so this is kind of interesting so he would bludgeon them with a hammer. Yeah, just not exactly taking a scalpel
No, but then he would do the dismemberment
So is he sort of like is that sort of like a hodgepodge of different styles for lack of a better term of killing?
Well, we'll definitely get in the Peter Sutcliffe's MO and exactly what it means
Oh further linking him to Jack the Ripper was Sutcliffe's habit of arranging the dead bodies of his victims to achieve
Maximum revulsion on the part of those who found them as if finding a dead body wasn't bad enough
He would put a New England Patriots jersey on them
Kissel, sports are cancelled, right?
You are need to talk about in very specific other terms. It's like he was wearing a
Oh
Comic-Con is also cancelled. Let's go fuck. We have nothing. Well, you know it's not cancelled. Dune
Start reading soon. Yeah, it's like wearing a Harkonnen family shroud. Ah, of course a natural reference. We all get
But despite the extra time spent with each body
It still took UK police five years to catch Peter Sutcliffe
Owing mostly to the fact that the Yorkshire Ripper case is quite possibly the most bungled serial killer investigation of all time
Worse than the hot dog squad much worse
The hot dog squad at least like they were trying they did. Okay
The hot dog squad wasn't as bad as all that hot dog squad
Of course being the people who investigated the BTK mortar murder that was a failure of the people up top
The Yorkshire Ripper case was a failure all the way through. They named themselves after ballpark condiments
Truly was from the balls up. They really it's just
In a fun stiff upper lip way. They cocked this up so hard. It might as well have been fucking
Meghan Markle
Well speaking of names just to give you an idea speaking of names
No, seriously, this is this absolutely works speaking of names just to give you an idea of what the investigators thought even of themselves
One of the task forces assigned to stop the murders call themselves the special
homicide
investigation team which in acronym form was known as the shit squad they call themselves the shit squad and
Because you know they're all their big thing was we ain't coming to work
If we ain't gonna bucket of beans waiting for us
So they were chock full of beans, but not chock full of police training
Hey Larry, we're gonna get out of this bank, man. I think the shit squad is coming
I think they're gonna be on to us. We got to get out of here quick. Hey there cornstable Aresin
Stop fought so audibly. Oh
So he made his drink live a ball
Forgot me cork
No, your cork is attached to your foot. No, I'm talking about the coke that goes and soared me, but
You made coke
New York Times best-selling author
Technically all three of us
Amazing
Peter Sutcliffe himself was interviewed no less than nine times over the course of the five-year-long investigation
But for a number of reasons we'll get into Sutcliffe was not taken seriously as a suspect until he was caught
red-handed
Partly that's because Peter Sutcliffe was nothing special at least at first glance as far as the police were concerned
Sutcliffe just really loved paying for sex
But was otherwise just another unhappily married working-class Yorkshireman
But we found out he felt the exact opposite about paying for sex. He actually didn't like it at all. Oh
What do you mean? Oh, that's sad when people do things they don't like. No, that's why he did what he did kissle
No, it's not a disappointing thing. It's not a little bit looked at a picture of Peter Sutcliffe
I have seen him. Yes, his hair alone should have attracted any woman that he wanted
Who who else could possibly turn themselves into an Italian Gumby?
He looks like if Danny Zuko played a racerhead
Women should have been flocking to him just to see how crispy the square was on the top of his head
I don't think it was about that. It was about the experience. He didn't want to feel like he was cheating on his wife
He thought pain was better than having an affair. You're the opposite. You're completely incorrect. Yeah
You're completely incorrect. You are. I don't know. The truth is opposite opposite. It is opposite
What does that even mean anymore? What does that even mean anymore? Nowadays? I see people are eating pizza from the crust
First which I thought was pretty crazy. That fucking idea started with Pizza Hut
We've never been the same ever since you mean to tell we're gonna break some of the few precious worlds
We have as a fucking society. Let's continue. I'm sorry. I agree
But underneath Peter Sutcliffe was one of the most calculating savage murderers in UK history a
Pitiful beast who killed 13 women merely because it made him feel better about himself
Or to put it in Yorkshire terms. He was a rete manky book
Right. He just got us cancelled. I don't know where we're cancelled, but somewhere. We just got cancelled
I tell you what you got it right now
It's a hard time to go into the hospital for real for rete manky Burke
I'm saying if you're showing signs for rete manky Burke right now
Call the hotline
1-800-FUCK-TOE because it means you're your toes become horny. I don't know man
That explains all the holes in my shoes
Perhaps what's most interesting about Peter Sutcliffe though is that his story from how he chose his victims to his method of murder
To how he arranged the corpses
suggests that maybe the infamous Jack the Ripper of 1888
Was just some guy
There was no conspiracies. There's no fucking Freemasons. No, nothing
It could be that Jack the Ripper was just some dude because Peter Sutcliffe was just some dude
Or would you say that way the same way as the character that that fucking pig with the talking spider was just some pig
Yeah, exactly. It actually had a talking spider for a friend who could write that's charlotte's web
Yeah, oh, yeah
Well Jack the Ripper was you know my in my contention that he was three some guys
And then would he it's with the worst thing is that I can't believe that the way that Peter Sutcliffe was eventually was discovered was actually just the cream of
Just some guy, which is a very
Very delicate Asian dish, but I can't believe that that's New York Times best-selling writing right there
Honestly, these are evergreen episodes that will live forever, but isolation has ruined us
Before we get into the story, let's acknowledge our sources
Today we have wicked beyond belief by Michael Bilton and somebody's husband somebody's son by Gordon Byrne
For all the investigation and nasty details go to wicked beyond belief
But if you're more interested in the story of Peter Sutcliffe himself and if you really want to go full Yorkshire
Your best bet is somebody's husband somebody's son
Also, if you really want to go full Yorkshire you rent a hotel room and you watch a sheep fuck your wife
We fought a war for that
So without further ado, let's get into the story of Peter Sutcliffe aka the Yorkshire Ripper so much cooler than Peter Sutcliffe
Unfortunately, it's one of the one of the better pseudo killer nicknames in history. Yeah, absolutely
Peter was born to John and Kathleen Sutcliffe on June 2nd
1946 in Bingley which according to Yorkshire Manille who helps us out with a lot of research
Bingley is a town within the city of Bradford
They gave you a short sum up of Bradford in the industrial revolution Bradford was known as the wool capital of the world
Absolutely
fascinated I
Did not know that
So it's also the capital of the world for itchy thighs
Haha, that is a funny joke. You've told here at this pub
Did you know that right over there? They used to make the wall?
Wow
You're my very best friend
And I'm gonna have gay sex with you tonight
That's a whole different kind of wool will be rubbing. It's our butthole
Yes by the 70s though when Peter Sutcliffe was active Bradford was and still is known for urban grit combined with a strange
countryside influence
Essentially from what I've been told Yorkshire where Bradford is located Yorkshire is pretty much the Texas of England
Okay, from what I'm looking at
I'm looking at Google pictures of West Yorkshire and it looks lovely
It looks really lovely. You've got little castles there where I guess they're their king lives their Duke must live there
And then I see another kind of castle looking thing and I gets their archduke must live there and this must be the prince's
Quarters, which is actually right next to a Jersey Mike's
Okay, now there really isn't a whole lot said about Peter Sutcliffe's mother in either of the books we read
But Peter's siblings describe John Sutcliffe as a terrifying man with a hair-trigger temper who doled out beatings when he got drunk
But he was also known for being great at both football and cricket. He was a local actor
He loved ballroom dancing and he was a soloist in the Bingley male voice choir
While also having a healthy appetite for pig entrails
He loved pig entrails. That's the main thing that this is the first thing that they said about his personality and somebody's husband
Somebody's son where they're like it's a trotters
Wiggles he eats the gumballs. He eats the crick-a-nicks and you're like, what's the crick-a-nicks and it's like that's the tip of the bowl
Great eats all that. That's
Great, that's the first thing you hear about somebody which I get because I'm a trade person
Yeah, but if it's the first thing you hear is that is my buddy Dave. He fucking loves organ meat
Like cool cool. Yeah, the things you eat should never be a personality trait. Oh, no
That's a little he also played them in the Yorkshire men's choir
He also played that he did the creepy door noises for the Halloween albums each year
How much do you owe FSU for their theater program again? I I think I still owe the money
Now John was a healthy man all his life
Until his son Peter was born when Peter was born John started wasting away
Almost as if the new baby was feeding upon his life force in just eight months
John Sutcliffe went from almost 200 pounds to just a little over 130 and Peter wasn't John's first child either
But if baby Peter was sucking away his father's life energy the infant wasn't showing it
Peter I mean baby Peter was not sucking away his father's life energy
That is not I mean the children do not have the ability to do that. Maybe his dad was more tired. I
Some people there's some people that are super happy with raising their kids and those people are
Gwyneth Paltrow with a team. Yeah, the team of people. She's like I love just having so much time at home with my kids right now
And then she never sees no she's stretching her vagina in the background with her fucking
You know with some guys she met from Thailand
She's wearing a face mask and the kids are being watched by a good group of women from Guatemala. Oh, very possible very possible
Well, Peter was always a weak and weedy child with baffling habits
Always blankly scooting around the house on his ass with one leg sticking out front and the other dragon behind
He's playing semi truck
Look how he was on my balls when I do my friction splits. You're draining my life force Peter
Was so weak that his father bought him a pair of reinforced leather boots
So Peter could walk without breaking his own ankles. I had to go to the children's kink store
And when Peter did walk he'd usually do it while clutching his mother's skirt
I don't like standing up. I like my new wrinkles being on the ground
I don't like going to school and I don't like
Going to keep me cool
Oh look me mommy
Just cut to his father putting his own name on a bullet put it in
One day one day little bullet
Well because of this weakness when Peter was eventually sent to school
He was mercilessly mocked for his skinny underdeveloped legs. Me mom says it's me magic shoes
But Peter didn't react to the mocking at all and was so passive that none of his teachers
Nor any of his priests could put a face to the name
After Peter Sutcliffe was arrested as the Yorkshire Ripper. I guess if you're going to be a serial killer
It's not a bad trait to not be remembered at all. It's not like he was trying to be the prime minister or whatever
They have in Yorkshire, but I mean if you're going to be a serial killer
Being being invisible ain't that bad? It ain't yeah
Although you might think that Peter would be a gigantic disappointment to his footballer father
John actually believed his son to be extremely bright
Despite Peter's grades being only average
This belief actually showed John's intelligence because John reasoned that Peter must be bright
Because he spent all his time in the library. Yeah, she was gonna be reading all day
He's reading that's what nerds know. He's got skinny likes. There's gotta go there with his books and he hangs out with his books
But you can do a lot of things in the library. Yeah, that's the thing
I'm wondering like was he just taking two wooden blocks and jamming them up to his ears. You're like, it's like headphones
It's like no, no, just sitting there and staring in the distance. That's all he would do
You just went to the library so we wouldn't have to go outside. I don't like going outside
I like the pleasure of the books, but I don't like reading them. I like
Look Ned and I don't like my library record because I don't love things. It is square
And according to his sister sometimes he just sit in the kitchen and just stare off into space for hours
Without moving or getting restless. I
Mean, it's not easy draining your father's life force. You have to focus on doing it
You just think that he would be getting bigger and stronger each month
He went draining a life force out of his father, but it was just he was just wasting all that energy
God knows what he was doing. Yeah, well at home his particular fortress of solitude was the bathroom
Where he'd shut himself away for hours on end, but he wasn't doing what most boys do when they lock themselves in the bathroom all afternoon
Oh, yeah, writing my manifesto. I'm gonna take over the school
See his brother Mick got curious as to what Peter was doing in the bathroom day and night
Oh, tell me he put a camera in there. That'll be great. That's a real curious brother
He'd secretly watch him through the window
Who is crazy here? Who is crazy all Peter's office at this point?
All Peter's doing is hanging out in the library to not get bullied and trying to go to the bathroom to avoid his family
And his brother is peeping like it's the movie porkies. I
Just I don't want to know. I don't know Jackie lived with me for a year
Can you mad like this like recently the idea of do that like
You just see pants cool around her ankles and then just a pounds of bush
I'm sorry Jackie. I'm just I
I just want to I just want to laugh
Well, surprisingly Peter was doing nothing more sinister than spending hours
meticulously shaping his own hair cutting the strands
Millimeters at a time this little kid was born with a full-on
Mr. Cotter like pile of
Of of droops that is the only way I can really put his hair cut he came out looking like he had stuck his finger in a fucking
Outlet his hair stood straight up and he has a kid he ever understood like this is my thing
And so he clip it and clip it and clip it and clip it excessively to it became this very strange shape
If you look at it, if you look up Peter Sutcliffe, I think that's to me
You know you see him looking like a Greek landlord vampire
Yeah, honestly immediately and he was like that since he was a kid
He's been walking around like that since he was fucking nine years old. He's got big-haired confidence. Mm-hmm not 15
Peter began his first of many English blue-collar jobs when he gained employment as an apprentice fitter at an engineering works in Bingley
All anyone at the job remembered though was that Peter was just some weird dickhead
Who usually wore the look of a frightened animal? Wait a second? Is this some kind of pipe?
Is that a pipe that you got there?
I don't like the shape
I don't like the shape
What is that? Is that a-
It's a- a shovel. Oh!
I don't like it
I don't like the shape of it and I don't like- I don't like anything. I don't like water either. I'm-
Oh, oh, oh, oh, are you ghost?
He's like Jason Voorhees and I am not gonna say it here and come to the defense of Peter Sutcliffe
Um, but you're about to now. What I'm saying is all so far everyone's like he wasn't noticeable
What do you want him to- it's a pipe fitting job
Do you want him to show up with a little twirly hat on and just be like hey guys time to make the jokes?
It's like no do your freaking job
You're gonna find out why he just didn't exactly fit in. Yeah. All right
But by 18 Peter began to come out of a shell when he discovered what should have been his first and only penis replacement
Peter
What?
Peter became obsessed with motorbikes and cars and he doled on to this obsession for the rest of his life
He's one of those guys that somehow even though he doesn't make any money
He's always got like a cool car like a quote-unquote cool car. He's got like a step-dead car
It's kind of got like my car where women don't notice you
But other ugly dudes give you winks and like give you high fives and thumbs up as you drive along the street as you listen to
Howard Stern just like going 75 miles per hour in a 30
Where he is he is like that where I'm certain that if death leopard
Could have gotten to him and if I think that maybe he would have found a whole new a whole new lease on life
Yeah, okay. So he's a cool guy. He's cool. He's a cool step dad. He's got the trans am nude as he gets older
He reminds me very much of
Buck and I'm here to fuck
Kill Bell. Yeah
So in 1964 Peter briefly moved out of the industrial sector and got hired at Bingley Cemetery as a grave digger
So fast immediately into a serial killer profession. Yeah, yeah
Now possessing just the slightest bit of confidence Peter for the first time made a strong impression on the people around him
Although the impression was almost
universally bad
One co-worker named Billy Moore recalled one day early in Peter's tenure at the graveyard
Peter was digging a grave near a wall the cemetery shared with a local grammar school. Hmm. That's a
Horrifying place for a school. That's how England is man. I went to a lot of cemeteries out in England
There's they just plop them down in the middle of fucking any old place always remember kids
You're gonna work until you end up in one of these
I
Would be hard to focus on the studies when you realize it's all for nothing. Yes, you're just dead
Now I think Peter was either replacing one body with another are stacking coffins in the same plot
But it's hard to tell from the transcription of Billy Moore's account because Yorkshire slang is fucking impossible to decipher
Let me just give you an example. Okay of Yorkshire slang. All right. I'll try to figure it out a
But I got me were wrong about where's chuddy faffing with some push on so I says just say I'm up and skip down
In a pub for a snake lifter, but he just lets a catty guffin puts wood
Oh, so all gop is cackin feddle the gayness cafe. I
Don't need any decaf
I'll just take a regular coffee. No, I have no idea what that was. I you know what though if you have about seven Guinness's
You automatically understand what that is. That's what Kissel and I sounded like in Dublin
That's very true
But at any rate Billy Moore said that Peter was trying to find the coffin lid already in the grave with his shovel
It involves a lot of that noise
But he discovered that the top of the coffin had fallen in
Billy heard a yelp from across the graveyard and ran to find Peter standing there with the skull on his spade
Shaking look at this crazy meatball. I found
It's art when Shakespeare does it in the park, but all of a sudden I'm a grave robber who has like a skull in my hand
Not an actor. I think he could have been a thespian
From what Billy said though, nobody really knew for sure what Peter was ever thinking. They just knew they didn't like him
He said Peter's face almost never dropped a sneer of superiority
He always had this fucking little half-smile that infuriated everyone. Yeah, I dig graves. I also dig motorbikes
Yeah, you're a pretty cool guy, huh? That's pretty cool. Yeah, that's what I saw. Yeah, I'm pretty good boy
Yeah, yeah, you know they used to make a lot of wool around here
No, really. Yeah, right here right here. Yeah, they made like a lot of wool a lot of wool
You know where that comes from that is all I think I do know where that comes
Comes from sheep sheep
Yeah, yep pretty cool guy really all
We're best friends now
Well Peter was also disliked because of his modesty see most grave diggers
They just pissed right on the headstones
But the dainty Peter Sutcliffe would always run off to the bushes when he needed to relieve because that's very polite to do
Because why are they pissing on the headstones? They're literally like there you go stinking. He's better than us
They can ease over some corner king of society. We pissed right here with it with the dead are interned
It just piss all over these very expensive tubes out just all over the bodies just laughing at each other
So I'm starting to think that maybe the problem is the society that's here that he's around
He wasn't desecrating the tombstones, so they're like he's a little strange. What are you talking about?
I will say they didn't go on to kill 13
prostitutes
That's true. That's true. That's good point
But the only person who was friendly with Peter was old Eddie Bishop
But that ended after Peter whacked him on the head with a mallet as Eddie was boarden up the coffin
And it's funny that same sort of thing also happened with John Wayne Gacy
One day he John Wayne Gacy was with one of his employees in his garage and just hit him in the fucking head with a hammer
So this was super impulsive very impulsive. He's just and then he laughed it off like it was a joke
He did this like bit where he was like
What if I hit you on the head with one of these and then he's just like well Peter stop it
It's an exam and then he says like what and then just hit him a little too hard. Yeah for it to be a joke
Yeah, I feel you all right. Yeah, and then he had this fucking
awful laugh
And the problem is that I can't go into Israel keys territory, but he definitely had like one of those
And he loved he loved to laugh he loved to laugh he did oh they said it was high-pitched and he would only laugh through his nose
Oh my goodness like the nasa next man. Yeah
But this wasn't Peter's only job in the death industry. He split his time between the graveyard and the local morgue
Where he'd boost loot off bodies and offer the jewelry to his sister
And when she recalled that the thought of where the jewelry came from he'd give that same annoying nasal laugh
You don't like
Because that's what they used to talk about he used to say being like all these all these fucking idiots going to the store getting their fucking jewelry
Well, go right here. It's it's a fucking easiest job in the world
They're right there. They didn't leave a jewelry on the fat fucking dead fingers
And he's like right saying this to his friends very casually getting again
just how how how fucking lucky he was that he had this endless supply of free jewelry and
You know mostly they they shook it off with the loft because it was a working-class society
So, I mean against I think people do they they would take things with a gallows
Sense of humor. I mean the only other conversation the only other topic of conversation as well
So you're telling me this guy's coming in here with some new bling and you got it off a corpse
Yeah, I'm here to hear the story. I want to listen to that tale because if I hear about whoa one more fucking time
That is what you that is why you are true
You are a bar patron to your soul where your job is to collect all of these various stories
That's how you explain this to whatever it is that your future wife
When you have to explain why you're drinking every night, which I do all time. I say I'm a I'm an anthropologist
I just collect stories
Now Peter kept both jobs until 1967
But he was not fired for stealing jewelry off corpses or for attacking his fellow workers instead
He was thrown off the job because it couldn't show up on time
But he said you know me that that's his whole thing
He's like almost one of those guys that just doesn't show up on time and he acted like that was like normal
But that was like a thing that it did some people just are and in Los Angeles you see it a lot
But I don't see it a lot in working-class England in his defense. It was corpses that he dealt with
Where are they going? Yeah, what are we doing here?
You got to meet up with the other gravediggers. What am I doing?
I'm waiting around for 30 minutes for Peter. The first 30 minutes is just them taking dumps on tombstones
He's expected to do that alone
I don't hold another subculture
I don't need to know about if you're shitting in graves is a two-man job because you have to have a lookout for these fucking
Narks you're gonna explain that somebody's putting a couple of dookies in the fishbowl
I think it's a three-man job because you do need someone to be like that was a good plop
Good pop and then that's always the guy who's holding your hands
Your toes dug into the side soil where the wall of the grave and he's holding your hand
So you could really get the shit down in there and pop out. Why do you guys have to hold somebody's hands?
Well, we lost Steve three years ago
He was taking a massive liquid shit in the grave. He fell in and we never got him back
Now since this was 1967 in the UK free love was definitely on the table for someone who was even moderately good-looking
I don't know why that's so disgusting the idea of UK free love just does not like I don't think of hate and Ashbury
I don't think of like roses or petals in your hair. They were hip man. You've seen Austin Powers. Come on
Yeah, yeah, some of their their teeth look like parallelograms and some of them smelled like old sacks of beans
But they have the same spirit and we came from them. So yeah, that's true and by 1960s British standards like Peter Sutcliffe was
Moderately good-looking. He's fine
One of the one of his the people that he injured
One of his attempted victims said a thing about Peter Sutcliffe where it's like he's got them big rooms
Come here eyes. He's handsome and he knows it and then you look at him and you're like
Really?
Yeah, well, it's cuz also I remembered the one story that he had is that he had a leather jacket that he wouldn't take off
Yeah, that no matter what the temperature was he had this leather jacket, which everyone said made him look like that like they're like
He's a rather he's a regular old Bobby Driscoll. I don't I don't know that reference
Oh, well, then I here's another one. He's a regular old root, but don't have it
I
Don't understand
Well Peter was good friends with a guy named Keith Sugden
Okay, and Peter practically lived at the apartment shared by Keith and his girlfriend
One day though Keith said a girl who lived in the building threw herself across their breakfast table
Naked and offered herself as Peter's breakfast
1967 UK free love right there. That is disgusted
Well, what do you mean? What's he supposed to get a full English?
What do you do? I know that it cheesy-ass strip business man's strip clubs. They'll do the sushi
Mm-hmm, but what are you gonna do fucking beans and toast on the bitches nipples?
What are you going to do? What are you eating?
European food off of a woman on a table is so disgusting sounding an offer for sex Ben
I didn't mean oh she didn't want it was
I
She wants to have sex with him she wanted it no breakfast as in like offer yourself is like
Jaina is yes. Yeah, no. Yeah, you fucking moron
Isn't he still hungry for breakfast
She's not fucking like putting the tomato in her fucking asshole
She put herself on the table that's where food goes
No, no, no, it was it was sex. It was sex, but Peter ain't gonna make you not hungry
But Peter instead of taking her up on the offer or even just politely declining
He said nothing and only stared at the girl with disgust and something that looked a hell of a lot like hatred
Cuz her butt cheeks is in the beans. You would you are you have become the prude. I would love
A couple of bunches cover this is strange you becoming you become quite prudish
We're at let's just say we're at a beautiful steak house
We're ready
We're like oh can't wait to eat steak and all of a sudden a waitress comes and flails herself on the table and says
Oh, I'm the food now. It's like no, you're not well. I know that I get food
I know eventually I will receive food if I wasn't married. I would be like
Coming as a part of the thing or is this extra?
I don't know breakfast is a very important meal. That's all I'm saying
Now this girl had possibly tapped into what can be described as an almost
Pathological shyness and of course there's nothing wrong with being shy
But when Peter shyness was confronted he responded with an inner rage that would eventually manifest as something terrible
Now he could always say hi to a girl
But as soon as the conversation progressed past that Peter would turn silent and his face would go red and
Eventually the girl would just walk away
Despite this though Peter Sutcliffe still peacocked his appearance. Yeah, he did
He wears some
Outfits yeah, it is capital O outfits with this man every day
I know for a fact I've lost women because I talked
So maybe this is a good technique. Just say hello and shut the fuck up. You just shut up
You let them shut up. It's the idea right let them speak you pepper a couple of questions
They speak his thing was I think came from a lack of a understanding of women that slowly but
Surely turn into hatred of women very very fast because for some reason he could not bridge the gap
He would attach himself. I think a lot of people know this
I might like I I've seen this type of relationship a lot in my life of
You know like you got a single dude guy that has attached himself to another couple
Where he's sort of living vicariously through this couple. He's kind of I'm not gonna say it's not like it's not full cuck
Right, it's not that type of thing
but he's kind of living vicariously through this other couple and does not understand how to do it himself and
Begins also view anything else besides some weird
Some idea of what a this a normal relationship supposed to look at mixed with now the burgeoning free love scene
Which he cannot handle right so instead of him being able to figure out what is it about me?
That's bringing out these feelings. Why why why am I could he is?
reverting completely into total I call it like a Frankenstein rage I
Mean mostly because of the hair so there's a difference between being quiet and listening. He was not listening
No, no, I don't know quiet probably trying to figure out how to how to talk
Yeah, well concerning his outfits Peter Sutcliffe loved black suits with off-white
Drain pipe pants paired with Cuban heel boots and
Immaculately styled hair. Oh, yeah, I can't forget that hair man. That thing is dripping
Product, but he also wouldn't wash though. So he would wreak his pee himself
He was a very dirty man
But his clothes were immaculate for some reason and it's wild those big old pants big big big old pants
Kind of a kind of a man of the times though, right?
So what a man of the times but he was like one of those guys that like those dudes that don't wash their asshole because they think it's gay
Mm-hmm. Got you. I don't know any of those dudes, but yeah
My favorite moments of the day
Yeah, yeah, it's like me saying hello to myself. I use lupus as well. It's quite pleasant
It is it is a it is wow
I didn't think about that, but it really is saying hello to yourself first thing in the morning
It is and then but that's why you but you have to have a separate luffa
New York Times best-selling authors talk about wiping their assholes with luffas
Yeah, cuz sometimes there's little ornaments left on the luffa that you want to spread to the rest of your hairs
interesting
But just because Peter Sutcliffe's hair was immaculately styled does not mean that it looked good
One acquaintance who found Peter to be an all-around unsettling person said that his hair looked
Strangely square shaped like a dense black hedge
To make him even more unsettling and this also kind of goes into his silent act
Peter would constantly tongue the eighth inch wide gap in his front teeth and
His bulbous bloodshot near black eyes would constantly dart around the room looking at everything
except your face
That became a very
To a point where it almost helped catch him it became it's such a part of who he is that it's it's so
Specific where his eyes would just dart around because it seems like in a way
He could not fucking tell you a straight fact if you if you wanted to like he was such like kind of like
a pathological liar
Mixed with like constantly hiding his true self at all times never being able to be real to be able to connect
It seems like he might be on the spectrum. He may have some kind of I mean cuz he's
I don't know. I think he's just if you mean in spectrum of assholes
Peter also kept an immaculately styled beard
Often trimming the soul patch area and his chin into two
Triangles that made it look like he was wearing a couple of hairy vaginas touching bottom tip to bottom tip on his face at all times
The way I would use the one out the word I would use for his facial hair was ambitious
Because it showed a man of a certain discretion that he felt that he needed to create a ravine in his flavor safer
But I guess would hold old beer. I guess
Now Peter wasn't necessarily an outcast
Surprisingly, but he did do the type of shit that gave people pause
One night he was at the pub wasted lost in a weird trance when suddenly he grabbed a glass and smashed it on the table
Sending shards of glass flying across the fucking room. No need to do that
Yeah, so in true British form someone walked over and poured a pint on his head
It's the general British action for you're being a dickhead sure
But Peter didn't react in any way whatsoever
Instead he most likely went over to the jukebox and put on the spider in the fly by the Rolling Stones
Which he sometimes played
Several times in a row. He was one of those guys
I don't guys had those in college a friend that would like do something really outlandish and stupid to get attention
Right, then act like he didn't do anything, right?
So then he walks over and he basically does the the fucking from dirty work where he's like street fat in
Man, and then you would just go and put it on the fucking jukebox and then just dance alone
Right jukebox listening to his favorite song over and over and over again
Which I guess you just don't get punched for at this point when they when you grow up with somebody
Kind of seems like a Fonzie character in happy days if the score was by John Carpenter
There's something like I you I can see the black jacket. Yeah, I can see that he's trying
He's trying to do he's trying to be the guy. Yeah smash
Yeah, but the thing is that he's not the guy no no the loser
No, because when you are desperately searching to be the guy you eventually I think that's the frustration of it can sometimes allow
A bad shit to get in there. Yes. Yes. This is what happens when a serial killer tries to be the guy
Yeah, it's just not working the spotter in the flies. It's a fine Rolling Stones song. It's not one of the best
It's no start me up. I mean, it's the B side to satisfaction. It's okay, but it is not the problem here Marcus
Now, although Peter was of course the worst of the sucklifts. He wasn't the only one in the family with a violent streak
Put it on my tombstone
This brother mech was arrested for assault robbery and grievous bodily harm
Damn grievous bodily harm. It's a UK criminal code that essentially translates out to
Beating the fuck out of somebody as hard as you possibly can
It's the closest you can get to beating someone up without killing them. Cool
But it happens so much in England that they have a
Classification for it assault is pretty much getting into a fight grievous bodily harm is beating someone with the intent to almost kill them
It's like what the little brother did in a Christmas story when he finally got that fucking asshole
Although they did do bad to the redheaded people my people they did make us to be bullies
Well, even though the redhead deserved it when you are mean and have braces. That's what you get. You get a smash in the face
Now while Peter was quote the one who'd half choke on a boiled sweet watching his father perform, Oklahoma in quote
Oh, you better not call me that again
Nick was a big robust
Hard lad and he was taller than Peter despite being younger and the contrast and masculinity
Was certainly not lost on Peter Sutcliffe. He became kind of focused on Mick
Mick became his the view of what these fucking these super uber heterosexual man is
Okay, so I think in a way kind of like with Richard Ramirez had he had a family member that he kind of formulated of the picture of masculinity
The young boy, right? This is how you're supposed to be. She was to take no shit
You know, it's like slap people in the face and and you know like be the guy, right, right?
And not all serial killers are all about masculinity, but Peter Sutcliffe was definitely about masculinity. Okay
But it was Peter's sister Anne who had what might have been more of an influence on Peter Sutcliffe as a killer
Although that influence was undoubtedly
indirect
See in 1966 and married a man named Trevor Stuckey and moved to a town called Morkham
Yes, Morkham
We have some of the best goop
We have I tell you what I'm really sad. We moved to Morkham from Lescom
Yeah, yeah, I'm drowning in it. I am drowning. New York times. Best selling authors there Morkham
You get it if you think about semen
What was important about this concerning Peter was that Morkham was the home of a low-rent Madam Tussauds style wax museum
Called Louie Tussauds wax works. He named him after his fucking little person cousin
Little Louie, he likes wax too
This doesn't seem to be made of wax. Is this a is this a cum Brad Pitt?
You know what they say more come mo mo come mo problems
Yeah, and Louie Tussauds was known until it's closing in 2014. Oh as the world's worst wax work
I would honestly I kind of wish I could have gone. I wish I could have gone, too
Who did he have like what were the celebs of the time?
I mean, that's the things that they did have I mean up until 2014
I you can check out online the way it looked like all the like they had Prince Harry
They had all the big British celebrities. I remember they had Billy that was like their big one was they got the new Billy Connally in
Okay, all right, that's stars
But as Gordon Byrne put it all the heads were much too large for the bodies
Making them look as if they had an unpleasant stunting disease. They really do. I'm looking at these right now
Gordon Ramsay looks like he's on crystal fucking meth. This is the scariest wax museum
I have ever seen they oh my god. They made it off Hitler black
Straight up. He's like tan
No, that's a thing they made Prince William ugly and they made Mr. Bean handsome. I'm not saying they're wrong
Whoever back in the 60s the owner soon found that what got the public in the door was not Joseph Stalin in a ladies coat or
Princess Margaret in a shitty wig both of which were exhibits at the fucking wax museum
I would have loved to take edibles and walk around this wax museum
I love it. Dude tonight take some edibles with take some edibles wait until they kick in and then look up Louis two soads wax
You're really gonna love this some of these are very interesting
They got they get the Guardian did a whole thing on the world's wax museum and pictures. They follow my god
Well what they found was what got the public in the door was blood and guts cool
Louis two soads had a chamber of horrors displaying Britain's most famous murderers and chicken wire cages
Killers like dr. Crippen
hanged for dismembering his wife or
Reginald Christie the Halifax necrophile
Yeah, you fucking puts a bookmark in a corpse and I mean his fucking dick. That's crazy
But even though there were plenty of graphic scenes like murder in the bath Jack the Ripper and my favorite wax museum horror piece
The blood hook that's classic when it comes to wax museum. What's the blood? What is the blood hook?
The blood hook is either a woman or a man can be either one. I've seen both
Just with a hook through their torso and they're hanging from the ceiling on a big fucking hook
Yeah, most chamber of horrors and wax museums have them. Yeah, I've seen good ones. I've seen bad ones
That's why you had those hooks for the fucking wedding pictures, which I haven't even seen Marcus
I haven't seen the wedding pictures yet. I'm sending out the wedding pictures next week. Fuck. Yeah. All right
Now I've said it now. I've got to do it now. You know, it's not like you don't have a little bit more time anyway
I have it's the same amount. I had the exact same amount of time as I did before okay
Well, what attractive Peter Sutcliffe the most to Louis II soads was the museum of anatomy
Over the years Sutcliffe would return to the two small dusty rooms tucked into the back of Louis II soads
Again and again where the proprietors displayed an exhibition of Victorian wax works
Meant to educate the lower classes on the dangers of brazen iniquity
I mean, I don't think the lower classes need any sort of training on STD
They're the ones who have them in your tire at the time
Well at the time because British every everywhere you go is as fucking school in British
And everything has to be some kind of proper set of etiquette and everything all these fucking rules
So they created their validation of being like it's educating them. That's why we can do all of these depictions of tits and
Vaginas and guts and all that stuff in real life. They were just giving the people exactly what they wanted, right?
All right, right, right. Well these wax works similar to what can now be found at the house of wax bar and sought a Brooklyn Alamo
The draft house. Yes, it's a lot like that a little shocking not gonna lie when you walk in there
You're like, I'm surprised like I'll have the chicken fingers and then you look up and you're like there's a fetus coming out of that
Woman's fake vagina
Makes me hungry very bizarre
Well in the first room at Louis II soads the different stages of pregnancy were shown through a series of nine
Headless legless female torso's got to heads in the legs fucking honestly. You're so distracting from I like just the torso
They really were just what?
This is just it's made to fuck up the human brain kind of is yeah
But what truly drew Peter Sutcliffe's attention was the second room in there
Peter found dozens of models of sexual organs in various stages of venereal disease
Puss-ridden vaginas and penises and gray clouds of pubic hair appearing as so much of
yesterday's half-eaten sausage
I
Can see you getting erect as you write that sentence
But I tell you what you bake those up you bake those into a fine cake, right? You have a puss-ridden vagina
Uh-huh puss though a nice coconut cream
You've got the vaginomy with a nice like some kind of what are those?
You know, it's like a velvet cake a red velvet cake. Oh, well now that is that is very tasty. Yeah, that's good
The diseased scrotums were shown in cross-section and one particularly graphic display
Showed the hand of a doctor reaching into an oozing vagina to grab a fetus covered in green scabs and
Running sores and then they had a thought bubble on the doctor and it said another day another dollar
dollar I actually it was very interesting what an interesting because in the name of I'll never forget the name of that display
the birth of baron trump I
Love that beautiful beautiful. It's like the birth of Jesus Christ himself
Well speaking of Jesus at the center of the display was a bust of a woman inspired by pictures of the Virgin Mary
Suckling the baby Jesus
But in this case the bust nipples were discolored and encrusted with scabs and the breast was covered in burning sores and
hives
It sounds like she wasn't a virgin Mary. I don't know what happened there
I didn't know way to depict the Virgin Mary that ain't right now Peter Sutcliffe paid close attention to these displays
And when he later contracted VD multiple times from various ladies of the night, okay?
Did he show up with a fucking monocle?
What do you mean? Like how was he taking all of this in?
Yeah, yeah, that won't that gonna do that wasn't gonna do that one. Yeah, it's just you use it as homework
Yeah, just the janitor here. Oh, mr. Suckliffe. I gotta turn the lights off once again time for you to go home
He'd go again and again and again and again. He loved it there. It was his favorite place on earth. Hey, buddy
How about you go out? Give me them up. Yeah, you want to be the janitor here? You just got fired. Oh, I just got all right, but
The thing was is that when Peter started contracting VD. It seemed like he felt almost proud for knowing
Exactly what he'd contracted one time. He called up his friend Keith Sugden
He hadn't talked to Keith in two years
Mm-hmm, but he wanted to specifically show Keith his diseased penis because Peter's bell end had gone all white and flaky
That's what I'm saying. He's he's the John Carpenter Fonsi. He's like look how much pussy. I'm getting it. Look at all go
Yeah, look at that. I'm making my own palma John
Ain't that fun. Ain't that nice
Yeah, I guess it is good that he realized that he had a venereal disease
Yeah, and Sugden just said like you need to go to the hospital. Yeah, yeah
But surprisingly Peter Sutcliffe's obsession with waxworks depicting the worst of Victorian VD
Did not prevent him from eventually finding a wife. No technically. That's our fan base
Yes, I mean there is a fantastic book called the sick rose if you guys want to see some really cool like Victorian
Like medical drawings that really goes into VD like really fucking deep
Yeah, if you guys want to see some really cool stuff, and then you guys could maybe come over to my place
On the podcast, but I don't know if I want to go into your home
Because you seem to be you said you're not you haven't gone to the store for two weeks, but you have all this fresh parmesan
This reminds me when Marcus and I went to the fucking the was that in medical? What was the museum we went to in Edinburgh?
Uh the museum we went with Neil Neil took us. I think it's the Museum of Medical Oddities or not nothing
It was much
Classier than the mother let me look it up
It was super classy
But if you guys want to check out a cool book right now the sick rose disease in the art of medical illustration by Barnett Richard is a wonderful thing to
Read oh, yes, we went to the
Surgeons Hall Museum Surgeons where we went and it was just jars and jars and jars and jars are fucked up pussies
You know I love it if I guess that you really loved it. I got sick
Does it smell like formaldehyde like the Mutter Museum because I went in there hungover after our show in Philly and that is it
No, it doesn't smell like formaldehyde. Okay afterwards. I went out had a meat pie with Neil. It was great
Yeah, guys, my mom said I could have four friends over tonight, but I told her that oh, I don't know
I have to and I'll have to make some hard decisions because I so many people want to come Marcus
We're gonna go home and just watch them just normal comedies
We're gonna watch the don't involve penis is falling apart with disease. All right, buddy. It's been great though. Thanks for the education
Thank you for the edutainment. Oh, yeah, didn't have a lot of friends. There's not a lot of people in Texas
I'm like 28 million
But anyway Peter Sutcliffe got married. Oh, he did. Well, he found a wife. Yes
Okay, although Sonya Zerma was not by anyone's definition a prize catch. Oh, I saw pictures of her
I actually thought she was surprisingly cute from her description cute. Yes, but with a horrible personality
He's riddled with VD shy to the point of haughtiness and
Eternally unamused by the common rabble Sonya responded to Peter Sutcliffe's shitty attitude toward life almost immediately and the short lumpy
Afro Czechoslovakian fell in love. That's what it takes
You have your shittiness has to align with the other person shittiness
So he met him the way it seemed to really go down is that he had one of his standard like they met up
He silently stared at the table and she just sat next to him and then afterwards because she was just supposed to like
She went with like a girlfriend of a friend of his to like hook them up together
And they're all like well, this was a fucking disaster and then afterwards. She's like, I think I like him
I mean, you know, if you can get your VD to line up with another person's VD, then you lock and then you're married forever
Well from what the rest of the Sutcliffe family said Sonya would do nothing all day
But literally twiddle her thumbs in silence and when she finally did speak she did so in a high strong whisper
That was usually an order to get her a cup of tea. I
Can't name the person that I know that does this
There is a there is a type of person that I just can't stand. It's it could maybe it's cuz I'm so loud
Yeah, how my family is loud and so when people do the thing where they go like
Like they are specifically like low-talking in a way that seems to be a comment on
How loud I am, you know, maybe it's one of those strange ironies were to cut
Above the loud Italian Zabrowski family, you actually have to go underneath to penetrate the ear
No, we don't trust those people those people are telling their whispering fucking secrets
When Peter's sister Maureen had a baby Sonya and Peter paid a visit and while Peter was reportedly good enough with the infant
He was a pretty standard uncle Sonya dropped it to the ground the moment the baby started crying touchdown
Well, so she was not a mother. No, she was definitely not a mother
But you at the very least like plenty of people who aren't parents don't instinctively drop a baby the moment it starts crying
I mean, no, I mean sometimes you toss it. I think you well, you can't shake
And from what Mick Sutcliffe said Sonya quote looked like a fucking horse
But that seems to be a brother thing
That seems to be a brother because the brother because Mick used to fucking just pick at Peter
I don't like this big guy so far. He's just got a quiet girlfriend
He's a quiet guy who has a strange fascination with VD including his own
But for the most part, it's just it seems like these are it seems like this is the match for him
Well, it's gonna blossom and I think that's very similar. We talk. Well, I get a lot of Brutus vibes
from
from Sutcliffe so the wife
The in his arrangement creating the veneer of a normal family man will allow the other side of him
Develop further like in a strange way. There's something about creating this kind of an umbrella of
Quote-quote looks like look, I'm normal. I got a wife. I do a machine
I would never be able to do all these other things and his right brother was looking to destroy whatever it is that he had
Because he didn't want him to feel good about a single thing that happened to him and also Peter Sutcliffe then
antagonistically chose Sonya
because everybody was so down on her and talking about how she was gross and mean and
Stuck up and bad and they didn't like hanging out with her and he's just like well
I double like a because right he is an antagonistic personality as well
So just a very immature version of love and just like an immature version of like what what he thought reality should be
Oh, yeah, and she and she didn't even really seem to like him that much
But Sonya also never really liked anyone except her sister
Because when Peter told a story, you know the way he told it
He was one of those guys that like he can't stop laughing at his own jokes like he cracks himself up so much
That he just never stops laughing. He would turn a five-minute story into a 20-minute ordeal
Yeah, you're trying to get a bit. Wait, you gotta hear this before you go. Yeah, buddy. Listen. I'm thinking about how you're gonna be what I say in this thing
What happened with Cinderella finally got to the ball
Oh
What happened when Cinderella you remember? Yeah, she went to the ball and she's on she went to the ball
What happened when Cinderella
Finally got to the ball. She saw the prince, but then it turned to be me. No listen
I didn't love it. She gagged
That would take 20 minutes
Worth it. Actually pretty good punchline overall pretty good punchline overall better than the world conversation
We were having earlier, but the only thing that would make him stop was a scold and a glare from Sonya
She hated it. It's love. I guess that's the beats a yin and yang, baby
Then it was discovered in 1972 that Sonya was also schizophrenic in addition to being a wildly unpleasant person
But this should kind of came out of nowhere
Yeah, like they kind of had this kind of wishy-washy thing and she was me
She was very paranoid and distrustful of people to begin with but then
Her something clicked inside of her which I guess it does emerge quite a bit in your mid 20s. Yeah
Mm-hmm. She started bursting into violent fits of rage convinced that she was the second coming of Christ complete with
Stigmata, really? Yeah, huh when Peter would visit her in the hospital
She thought he was an airplane and would screech shrill demands for quote a bigger teddy bear
Wait, she thought he was an airplane totally fucking lost him. I went off went way off the deep end
Is that even normal? She thought he was a fucking airplane. What did he walk in with it?
Did he make an airplane noise when he walked in?
He didn't help because when he saw her at the hospital, he'd go time to open up the hangar
It's ridiculous
But strangely Peter stuck by Sonya every step of the way showing
Extraordinary patients in care although this was probably as Henry said him laying the groundwork for a quote-unquote
Normal life
Okay, but even though it seems like Sonya was not the type of woman who could hook two men at once
She still stepped out on Peter in 1969. I go and I found myself a bus to fuck
That is just another man
That year Mick saw Sonya riding around in a sports car with a mysterious
Italian man, and of course Mick mercilessly made fun of his brother for it. He's a chef
His name is Boyardee
Here's what he is a brilliant man in his mustache and tickles me down the stairs
Wow, I feel like if I was gonna be a fake name I would Ricardo Marbaro
That's actually pretty good, I like that yeah, it's kind of cool
What about it? Yeah, what about like Ricardo Marbaro, Jr. I like that you come from a long family
I don't like my dad. I don't like my dad
Aren't you a junior Thomas Henry Thomas? I am Henry Thomas the Browsky, Jr. Yes
Well since Sonya was having her own affair Peter decided to respond in kind
Although as we know he did not have the social skills necessary to just go pick up a woman in the bar
Mm-hmm. Oh, I see where this is going. Yep instead Sutcliffe decided to visit the girl
Soliciting on LUM in Manningham lanes
Which was the popular spot in Bradford when it came to a paid sexual encounter
Now if you want to go down and find one of the largest sex workers in all of Yorkshire, you're gonna want to check out LUM
Yeah, it's a street that sounds like
Come on down to LUM. He's only one. One woman left. And ask me to call me LUM woman
I love you LUM woman. And I'm five hundred pounds, please
Four pounds, four hundred pounds a tug and suck
That's great. I love all the ladies at LUM. They've got great breasts, butts and flam
Unfortunately though this visit would have dire consequences
And they showed if shit was just legal if sex work was legal. I think that this is the way to go about it
I don't know how you could navigate this within your own relationship parameters
But it's actually better if you know, I mean, this is bad to say this
But if you're gonna step outside it'd be better to have it with a professional
So all of a sudden that person doesn't have a bunch of evidence that you're cheating on them destroy your whole life
Did you feel the psychic vice grip on your testicles as you were saying that sentence from your wife? I'm
Happily married
Say it five times in the mirror
I'm incredibly happily married and my balls are empty. Thanks to my beautiful wife
All right, we don't need to know about all that
One night Peter drove to Manningham Lane and picked up a woman after confirming what business she was about
Oh, so you're not in the shrimp sales, huh? I thought this might have been a shrimp exchange. Never mind
But as Peter said he couldn't do it after realizing quote what a course and vulgar person she was
All right, so he also has is this the beginning of seeing them as lesser and seeing them as like oh, yeah
Like okay, he's going down that he's going kind of Gary Ridgway. He is in my mind
Incredibly
Tracted to sex workers in general. Yeah, and what you were saying before where it's like he is
Sexually engaged which is a which is a function of this of this relationship of the paying for it
Yeah, or the I thought he was right and he sees his women of the night
They view of them he views them as just totally available and that they should be so lucky to get to sleep with him
But these kind of views they get into his car. He starts have the reality of it come in as she begins to say
This costs money. This is what we're gonna do. She begins the negotiations right and that's gonna switch turns on in his brain of
Like he had some magical
Shit-fucked nerd idea that she was gonna come in the car
And I guess like blow him for free thinking that all of this was gonna be like some kind like she would look at his hair
I'd be like I'll cow want to see if the curtains match the drapes
And then like see if she opens up his fucking pants and see if his bush is fucking two feet high
Right, but that's not how it goes
Now it's interesting a lot of people like it's the equivalent of saying you read playboy for the articles
Yeah, it's the same thing to be like I go to sex workers for the conversation
I don't even look at that though, but you got to pay him you
You still yes, you still have to pay. Well, he thought it was gonna be this grand romantic encounter
And it ended up being a very
Mechanical type of transaction
Even so he still made it back to her place and got to the point where the unnamed woman was naked
She said it was a fiver for sex, but all Peter had on him was a ten pound note
She claimed to not have change. I mean you're fucking. What do you think?
She's nude. Do you think she has one of those coin bells?
No, yes, she doesn't have fucking change. Pull my finger and a couple of coins pop out. That's incredible
And that's gonna cost you ten. I mean to do my old five a bit. You're gonna have to give me ten
Just a little I they're never gonna have change
Can you break this hundred
They can't they're gonna keep that hundred
So she got dressed and went to the garage across the street while Peter waited in his car
But suddenly two men appeared from the garage and started banging on Peter's roof
Tell them the fuck off the scam was in
So Peter sped away humiliated and outraged more because he wasn't able to get back at Sonya for her
Daliants with the Italian man them for losing the fiver to a wily lady of the night
So he just went back like her umf like all yeah, oh my goodness
Well, then also, you know fully blue ball did all experiences and he doesn't understand because he's a fucking chit-head
Right that yes this yeah, he got scammed, but also, you know, he didn't do it, right? Yeah
Adding to this humiliation was the fact that Peter had left his new industrial job early that night to have this experience
And because of his negligence
Several of his co-workers almost died because Peter wasn't there to do his job
Hmm. It was like a why it was a big ol fuck up. Yeah, and so he did everything bad
He's not a bright human being. He was a very you know, you know, yeah, what we've said, of course
Then a few days later Peter saw the woman who'd stiffed him and so he asked for his money back
I mean, I think the problem was she didn't stiff him
Instead of giving him the money back
She started telling everyone on the street about how the boy wanted a refund and the whole goddamn neighborhood
Had a good laugh at Peter's expense because it's ridiculous. It's stupid
I mean, but it's humiliation on top of humiliation on top of humiliation and at every point it is his fault
It's not he's blaming everybody else for it. It's not a kinko's. She didn't print the paper wrong
It's a sex worker. You're not gonna get a refund. She tried to fuck you
She would have still fucked you despite your head despite what your fucking dick smells like
She would have still had sex with you, but he didn't want to deal with it because it came down
It came down to these kind of Robert Hansen ask a little
But baby freakouts where because these are not that big of humiliations either
No, you fucked up on your own job, and then you fucked up
Dealing with a sex worker and so you are entirely at fault, but of course he Elliot Rogers it
So it's just everybody else. I can see I can see myself at the bar with the buddy as he walks in be like
I demand a refund and we'll just be like
Hey, Teresa that guy's trying to get some money off you. Huh? You fuck him up. Yeah. That's like, yeah
I fucked him up
That guy's one of the dumbest people I've ever seen in my life. Oh, I mean weird to meet someone
He's like, oh, you want a refund? No, no, don't worry about it. Let me just shit all that come out
Scraping up
Thank you. Thank you very much for giving me my babies make and then his fucking cock would eat up the same and like
It was a dog eat a bunch of farmers farmers dog
Incredible well made it
Artisanal meals for your dog. It's food so good your children will want to eat it because you're not taking care of them
Well Peter did what men of his ilk often do he turned the humiliation and anger
He felt toward one woman into hatred for all women who did sex work
Hmm, although his first violent act towards a woman would be focused on the perpetrator of his first humiliation
Not too long after the incident on the street
Peter was parked in his car with his friend Trevor birds all eating fish and chips after a night out at the pub
Mmm, just smell that car
Chips in 1968 or 70 70 this is 69
From what Trevor said Peter was eating when suddenly his demeanor changed and he slipped out of the car
10 minutes later Peter returned out of breath and told birds all to drive away as fast as he could
Once they were away Peter said he saw the woman who'd scammed him
So we followed her and hit her in the head with a piece of brick stuffed into a sock
So Peter Sutcliffe actually talked about this move quite often because he would yet is like at this point
He'd built a little bit of a group of boys that kind of sort of put up with and listened and sort of laughed at his stories
Because he used to tell them all the time. I fuck them all the time
I fuck these girls all the time and they never make me pay which was never true like right
I mean never did that once but and then he also brought up several times like you never need you ever need a quick old
Wacky mop you go in there and you fucking put it up and you take your
You get a sock and you put it in your pocket and you can put up a rock and put it in things
So he was obsessed with this little weapon
Yeah, okay, so he was a bit of a man about town in his own weird world in his own wheel weird world
Yes, and the woman was rattled but relatively unscathed
Considering what Peter would work his way up to and she'd written down the registration on birds all's car as the two men had driven away
Eventually, the assault was traced to Peter and the cops gave him a stern talking to oh
My god stern speaking with that's very embarrassing because think about how embarrassing a stern talking to a police officer is versus all of Yorkshire going
You just imagining them all laughing at you again
But nothing more happened they just gave him a stern stern talking to don't do it again
He beat a woman with a brick and a sock. Yeah, and it's a stern talking to that's a stern talking. Yeah
Maybe a little bit more heightened than that because we're seeing the very beginnings of how they view the sex worker
And how they right the serious of the how serious those crimes are towards them. Yes, absolutely
Later that year Peter had another run-in with the police when he was found crouching in the garden in the middle of the night
Clutching a hammer, and of course he was charged with the very interesting crime of just not gardening
It's not that I'm not guardian in but I'm thinking about flowers
That work
Force gone
Yeah time for another stern talking to
I'm going to get to detective ventura over here to speak to you with his butt
New York Times best-selling authors
Well three years after that it's thought that Peter Sutcliffe may have attempted his first murder
Although Peter himself never fessed up to it
So we have a three years after the first assault of the sex worker. Yeah, that's a pretty long
He was just stewing this happens
It's it's different for every serial killer, but Peter Sutcliffe is it's pretty common where the
They give themselves allowances and they just slowly work their way up to the murder very few of the people that we've covered like start
Straight up with like big fucking horrible murder Peter
So if it's those guys one of those guys that just like it's just little by little by little well Ed Kemper
Yeah, where you slow you're you're visualizing what you're going to do again and again and again
You sit and you think about it each time you do it you start maybe fleshing out your own fantasy more and more
Maybe you start going talking more the girls on the street because they said they had a reputation they knew him
So he was around already so he would come and he would chat up everybody and get in the world
And he started kind of feeling like and maybe he had a little bit of good feelings a little bit where they started kind of like talking
When the buddy all been the back of his head he knew each one of them was going to not give him change and he
did not like it
So he slowly it would flesh out and then all it takes is the one step forward the physicalized the fantasy
Well in 1972 a 19 year old typist in Westgate said she was followed after she left the pub one night
Once she was in a secluded area a stranger grabbed her from behind punched her in the back of the head and pushed her into a
Wall but before things went from bad to worse the attacker was chased away by a guard from a nearby prison
This wasn't necessarily Peter's mo but the woman said that when Peter Sutcliffe was caught
She was absolutely sure he was her attacker
Although at the time all she could say was that the assailant looked like cat Stevens
Well, if anybody was more specific looking than Peter Sutcliffe besides mr. Potato head
I don't know how he I don't know how he committed these crimes for as long as he did
Yeah, I just feel bad for cat Stevens
I mean he's gonna use to be in this man. He couldn't travel after 9-eleven
He's not cat Steve is anymore
He's like dog. He's like dog Billy now you set Islam. Oh, yeah, yeah, definitely not dog Billy
Because I'm pretty sure he would be allowed
Well with welcome arms after 9-eleven if his name was dog Billy
The two years later Peter may have escalated once more that year a 28 year old woman named Gloria Wood
Was hit in the head with a hammer by a man who had a similar cat Stevens look
Then in 1975 a 14 year old in
Silsden said that she was attacked by a man who called himself Tony Jenis
And when he rained blows on her head and face with a heavy object
He made a grunting sound similar to that of famous tennis player Jimmy Connors
I looked up some Jimmy Connors, and it is a lot of the tennis noises are weird man
Mr. Connors, I don't know if it's illegal what you're doing, but your opponent has said you're
Distracting him with sounds of orgasm. Do you please grunt like a man? Are you right? You're right. I'll grunt like a man
Like how men grunt. Yeah, of course
Now these aren't confirmed Peter Sutcliffe cases as the cat Stevens look was apparently pretty popular in the UK in the early 70s
Just we can stop maligning cat Stevens
There's plenty of people cats I mean cats did the cat Stevens look was just the cat Stevens look bearded bush big bushy beard
Yeah, but with the soft spot for his father
He wasn't there. He was always working cuz I know
What is confirmed however is that Peter Sutcliffe's criminal MO was established in 1975
Now by 1975 Peter Sutcliffe had already been married to Sonya Zerma for a year
And the two of them were living under the roof of Sonya's parents
But neither the family nor Sonya would ever suspect that Peter was the infamous Yorkshire Ripper
Oh
That summer Peter attacked two women named Anna Rogulski and olive smelt with Anna
Peter followed her for days running off every time she noticed the man with the quote racing eyes and dainty hands
Some of us are just we just look like that
Damn so he wasn't even I guess he wasn't really good at this sneaking
No, well, you'll see he grows he grows because it because it becomes more and more attractive to him
But on July 4th 1975 Peter took his first real step into serial killing
Smashing Anna's head three times with a ball peen hammer before he lifted her skirt and began slashing at her stomach
He was just about to plunge the knife into her flesh for the killing blow when a man down the street
Called out asking what was happening
Peter ran but strangely the man who called out didn't check on the woman lying on the ground
Rather Anna wasn't discovered for another hour and doctors worked on her in surgery for half a day
To remove all the splinters of bone from her brain
She survived but had no memory of what had happened
Damn five weeks later Peter tried again with all of smelt his first sex worker victim of many
That night Peter and Trevor Birdsall were again out drinking this time in Halifax
But as they were on their way back to Bradford Peter suddenly got out of the car
This seems to be one of his first triggering mechanisms where I think that in my mind
I mean this is totally fiction, but I imagine
Peter and Trevor are hanging out and so Cliff is running his mouth as always and he is talking himself up
About all the how he loves to fuck
Every single thing that he does you know like how the women love him and how no one will respect him because he go
Basically, this is his he's acting like the guy and then that night
He I think in a weird way. It almost starts us of a way to like show off for his friends. Yeah, right?
Well, Peter had spotted a woman turning down an alleyway
So he slipped out of the car somehow carrying a hammer and a hacksaw without Birdsall seeing it
And these friends seem a little bit like blinders on yeah, dude. Come on
And so Sutcliffe followed all of smelt into the darkness
And after mumbling some pleasantries about the weather Sutcliffe struck her twice in the back of the head with the hammer
Before dragging the hacksaw blade across the small of her back
Olive's life was only saved by approaching headlights and when Peter got back to the car
He said nothing to Trevor and Birdsall saw the news of the attack the next day
He knew that Peter Sutcliffe had done it. Oh, he did know he knew but he said we knew he said nothing
He said out of loyalty to his friend. I
Mean, this is where the loyalty. I love my boy. I love my boys. I love my boys
But this is where the loyalty I think would stop for me
I know I mean you can talk to him in prison, but you gotta put him out man
I'll support during the trial and mean like I should have stopped you
But I also would be like you know like any step too far
My only thing is that if you call like one of you murder somebody, you know the protocol
I just need an explanation that I can apply to my own brain sure sure
So I can help you hide a body if I have to she said she said that Dune was for fat nerds
And I I said no, no, where's the body? Yeah, let me see her. Oh, I'm not gonna know that it's not
Excusable it has to be something like that was my corn that she ate. Oh
So he is like getting validation not just from the cops you give him a stern talking to yeah
But from his friends who are like, oh, this is again another reminder of how sex workers have been demeaned through time
Mm-hmm why we need to have it up and in the daylight legalize it
Absolutely lies it but because Birdsall said nothing Peter Sutcliffe was successful in murder for the first of 13 times on
October 29th 1975
That night Peter picked up Wilma McCann in the city of Leeds as she staggered home from a night of drinking
She got in his car and asked if he wanted some business and he replied that he did
So they drove to a field and parked they talked for a minute, but her tone suddenly changed pretty much saying
Let's get on with it. Yeah, if we're doing this, let's do this
Yeah
Now Peter said when he couldn't get aroused immediately
McCann called him useless and said she didn't have all fucking day
Which of course brought Peters rage to the forefront. You got one job
Utility the penis is utility tool
I thought you were horny enough to fuck me and you just saw me on the side of the street
So like I got to get back to my rags and then this is the UK
So she's got to go and make her she got a knit rags and she's got to go and buff the floor of a castle
There's so many jobs for a night time person then
Peter suggested that maybe they'd have better luck trying it out on the grass so McCann
Exasperatedly complied and got out of the car while her back was turned Peter grabbed his hammer from his back seat
By the time he got to the spot McCann had chosen. She'd already started undoing her pants saying let's get this over with
Peter said don't worry. I will and struck her hard in the head with the hammer twice
She fell flat on her back and made a loud
Horrible gurgling noise in her arm began to move up and down voluntarily from the blow to the head
So Sutcliffe walked back to the car grabbed a knife and stabbed her over and over again in a blind panic
Making certain that Wilma McCann would never tell a soul what he'd done
Now we know that he is a process and product killers
He is a process killer. Mm-hmm. So his what he would do is this one. I think you could see that he panicked and
Stabbed her and stabbed her and stabbed her but obviously he was getting something out of it as well
And they said they probably you can imagine the sexual act
Was him stabbing her and stabbing her and he probably they said most times he would then masturbate over the corpse
Oh, he did that stuff to get it out. That's how he would finally finish it, right? That's how but the end
but then it would be like
Out of a system, right? Then he'd be gone and that's and that's the difference
Four months later in January Peter Sutcliffe came across Emily Jackson
Jackson was also in sex work and Sutcliffe claimed that it was the smell of her cheap perfume
That made him decide to commit murder that night. She's not wearing the good stuff for a john
She's not gonna waste the good stuff on your fucking ass and didn't you are you know, of course like I
I hate these types of dudes because you could have just had sex. Yeah
Sutcliffe picked her up at about 7 p.m
Parked behind some derelict industrial buildings in the city center and pretended his car was broken down
He asked her if she could help him pop the hood and as she looked at the engine with a cigarette lighter
Sutcliffe struck her twice in the back of the head with his hammer
He then dragged the body into a trash filled yard and stabbed Jackson
52 times with a Phillips head screwdriver
Before picking up a piece of wood which he thrust between her legs as a strange and pathetic gesture of disgust for Jackson's lifestyle
Now this is where he hones in and discovers what he really likes
He likes the multiple very because what do you know when somebody's been stabbed?
More than once this is a rage crime
Is somebody who's doing this again and again because this takes some fucking it takes some energy
Yeah, it's exactly the same
He immediately adopted an mo which is
It's it became very ritualistic because the first time he killed with a hammer used a hammer
The hammer was accidental and then it became an immediate almost kind of
Like this is this is what I do like I adopt the these things. These are my tools and I'm not certain why
I really don't know why he chose the hand. I think he just chose the hammer in particular
It's a it is definitely an instrument of rage
It works like like when when you are hitting someone in the head with a hammer like that that is a like that takes
A lot of rage to fucking do that. I guess it also kind of hides in plain sight people have hammers in their car
Yeah, it's just a hammer. That's true. It's not a big fucking butcher's knife
It's not a gun and he already works in like he works in vaguely kind of like, you know, there's hammers around
Yeah, I feel like every guy until 1994 just had a hammer because your father would just buy you a toolkit
And for some reason you had to keep it in your car
And it never I never you never opened it ever
Yeah, I only have a hammer because because for a while adult swim was giving Christmas gifts in the shapes of tools
And I literally have an adult swim hammer that it has become my hammer
Which I tried to use and it's it's more of a prop. I use my adult swim hammer all the time
It's not exactly great. It's a great hammer. It's a good hammer. It's a good useful hammer. Sure. Sure
Well after the murder
Sutcliffe returned to his in-laws house without a drop of blood on his clothes
Filled with a sense of satisfaction and justification for what he believed he'd accomplished
Now Sonia spent Wednesday and Saturday nights working at a nursing home with her mother
And they never returned until the next morning which gave Peter ample time to prowl the streets of Bradford
Two nights a week looking for another victim
And she'd come home and see him sleep in the 4 p.m. And she's like he works so hard
Thinking that he was been working all night and that's why he's tired. Right
His next was Marcella Claxton attack just a few months after Emily Jackson, but Claxton survived
The problem was that Claxton had an IQ
Around 50 and the police did not believe her when she reported the crime
But still her survival spooked Peter enough where he didn't try again until the following year in February of 1977
He picked up Irene Richardson and drove her to almost the same spot where he'd killed Wilma McCann
And strangely Gordon Byrne the author of somebody's husband somebody's son
Made sure to point out that this spot was only a short distance from the home of infamous pedophile
Jimmy Savile
Yeah, he's just out there watching jerking off having a great time say his house's christmas theme 24
Hours a day 365 a week. So that was probably also very creepy. That was probably creepy for peter suckliffe
Honestly, that is disgusting. Jimmy Savile. Would we ever cover him? Maybe his my goal is to cover him
But it's gonna be a couple of juicy ones. It's nasty. It's difficult. Yeah
But in any case once they arrived at their destination
Irene got out of the car to urinate
As she was crouched so you're gonna want to use that tombstone over there
I have seen so many people take peas on that tombstone
As she was crouched suckliffe took his hammer and struck her so severely that according to forensics
Suckliffe had to lever out the tool to get clear of the bone. Oh
He then slashed her throat leaving a gaping wound and tore a seven inch gash on the left side of the abdomen
Causing the intestines to spill out on the ground
Rolling her over suckliffe then arranged the corpse
He stuffed her pants and tights into her knee-high boots and draped them across the back of her thighs
And covered the spilled intestines with leaves and twigs before driving away
Leaving the corpse to be found the next morning by what else but a jogger. I thought you were gonna say jimmy savill
No, so he's getting like kind of tight us with it. He's like trying to make art. Is that is that what he's doing here?
What he's trying to do
It's it's kind of it's the same thing as jack the ripper where he's arranging the body
To to freak out whoever finds it whoever he wants because he wants to traumatize someone
Again and then traumatize them again when like the cops have to come in right with the first cuts the ravaging of the corpse
Comes from that's him getting off
To in my mind it is an instinctual
Fucking like stab stab stab full on total destruction of the corpse pause you just shoot you come
Right you all the thing this thing happened the fucking that that sort of flurry of activity clears and then it's like
All right now it's time for something completely different to take something from monty python
Well, it was with this murder that the press finally began to get involved printing sensationalistic headlines like jack the ripper murder horror
And ripper hunted and call girl murders. So he got everything that he wanted. Why is it that the media?
This is why we do a good job. You're not to pet ourselves in the back. But like we should call this guy like like
The the leaky turd killer. I don't know what to call him
But just like don't call him something that makes him seem like
Fucking jack the rippers. You know crazy demonic son. Mm-hmm. They got to sell news
They got to sell them papes because not those news boys get turned into fucking dog food for the king's rottweilers
Yeah, that's probably true
And it was also with this murder that the police began their complete and total bungling of the entire investigation
From beginning to end
See when it comes to a murder investigation, it's important to keep an open mind
Especially when it comes to serial murders
But the police in this situation seemed hell bent on narrowing their field of vision as much as possible from the very beginning
I suppose I mean I know the instinct is to find the perpetrator as soon as possible and the more you narrow it things down
The faster you're gonna find them, but they completely fucked it up
I thought you I thought you were gonna say when that comes to the cops keeping an open mind. They were fine with transgender bathrooms
But apparently that's not the case back in the day. Yeah
And when they began looking for a motive for the murders of wilma mccann
Emily jackson and iran Richardson. They chose hatred of prostitutes as the number one factor
Okay, and this was the right call. Yeah, but they used the information in all the wrong ways
In thinking about it so narrowly
They only looked at previous attacks where the victim survived
involving sex workers
And if you'll remember none of peter suckcliffe's surviving victims who had seen his face were in sex work
Which meant that the cops completely overlooked the cat stevens character who'd showed up again and again
in previous local attacks
They could have seen a pattern, but they didn't
they also
I'm gonna say straight up
weaponized their ignorance with certain like witness testimony like marcella clackston
Marcella was a little bit. They think that she might have been a bit
mentally handicapped
And so they immediately did not believe anything that she said they're like, well, you don't know what's what you're talking
Right, and then they said several things to anybody that there's something about but when you see several times
Like cat Stevens killed me and we don't even we're not even gonna talk to cat Stevens once
I don't think we need to bother cat Stevens. He is busy singing to a group of kids in portland
He is that killing a bunch of sex workers in the uk
Well marcella she was also taken out of the pile because she hadn't been attacked with a knife
Even though she had been attacked with the hammer
And as far because as far as the cops were concerned if a knife wasn't involved it wasn't a Yorkshire ripper case
Yeah, it's a little that's a little narrow. Yeah, you know, the only thing was to be fair
They had very little knowledge about the idea of serial murder and the idea of escalation
And so they were just trying again. They were just aren't wrapped this shit up being like we just need to get this whole thing
He's trying to kill prostitutes who got again and they because they are just fucking
I don't know man. It's like a Yorkshire. I don't know if I can
And they ran out of puddings
Yeah, yeah
Well, it was around this time that peter got a job as a truck driver working for an engineering transport firm called t and w h Clark
There his co-workers found him odd because he kept all his truck pornography neat and tidy
Instead of plastering the walls of his truck cabin with centerfolds like everyone else did that's why they thought he was weird
I mean, yeah, they thought he was being like some fancy assholes
I just feel like this is not just an indictment on soocliff the whole town
So we got most people are like me he's got a weird he doesn't take a shit on graves at all
And then this guy's like he doesn't even come on the paper on the walls
He keeps it in the little thing called a magazine
You're supposed to be coming on the paper because then you can cramble it up and you can come right and then praying
But he uh, but he was so ex-happy to become a truck driver because the whole thing was that look at how big my truck is
Yeah, like he loved cars so much that finally he's a part of this. He has this 250 pound 250,000 pound
Like the money worth
Fucking 18 wheeler and he just thought it's for all it put it in a vagina a bit
You know, he just loves his big old truck
There was a time where being a trucker was the coolest job you could have over the top
Yeah, we got a great big convoy. Absolutely. We got a convoy across the usa
Yeah, we know
But meanwhile sex workers and leads were starting to work in pairs with some leaving the area altogether for nearby
Manchester or down south to london
Tina ackerson. However took no such precautions
On april 23rd 1977 she was drunk banging on the roofs of cars and shouting fuck off when people drive away
Oh, she's having fun. Yeah, she's looking for business. Okay. Yeah
Now as Tina was banging on car roofs. She came across the vehicle of Peter Sutcliffe and they soon ended up back at her apartment
She got on the bed and Peter hit her four times with a hammer knocking her to the floor
He then pulled her back up to the bed and clawed her exposed torso with a hammer
Before stabbing her in the stomach and covering up as much of her blood as he could with her bed sheets
And as he was driving off he threw the hammer out of his car window
But instead of ending up in the hands of the police
The hammer was used by a local groundskeeper as a regular part of his tool set for the next three years
There is no such thing as a free lunch or free hammer. So please
But it was with Sutcliffe's next victim that he would bring the attention of the entire country to leads
On June 26th, 1977 the Yorkshire Ripper claimed a 16 year old shop clerk named Jane McDonald
Which of course is exactly why people start paying attention to it as soon as you start killing what they view as an innocent
Well that night Peter had gone to a gay bar called the dog in the pound with a couple of friends
Now what's gay about that?
But Peter had left in a huff after refusing to buy a round when it was his turn
Which when it comes to fucking going out and drinking with the british, that's fucking cardinal sen right there. Yeah, of course it is
What's wrong with this guy at 2 a.m. As he was driving home. He saw Jane walking down the street
Assuming she was a lady of the night
Sutcliffe parked his car grabbed his hammer and knife and got out following McDonald along chapel town road
Once he got close
He struck her in the head and dragged her to a nearby playground
Once they were off the road
He hit her two more times then pulled up her shirt and stabbed her in the chest and back
Stabbing one wound in particular as many as 20 times
Over and over again. This is what the knife or the screwdriver knife
He's moved on to a knife
And then what he would do is the the weirdest the thing that was highly specific to him
Where he would he would make a stab wound and then stick the knife back into the same wound and stab in multiple different directions
Inside of one wound
Making it bigger and bigger and it's nothing could be more of an of straight up
Mimicking of the sexual act than that like it's the psychology is so on top of it
We showed how not in touch. She was to his own feelings that it was like happening
Instinctually with his hands
He was literally just guided by his cock and what it would do for him
Then he took a broken bottle with the screw top still attached and embedded it in her chest
Before laying the body on its stomach and walking away
Ensuring that whoever turned it over would be faced with just one more brutal discovery
And with jay mcdonald the murder investigation went into high gear
Although as we'll see on next week's episode
The shit squad would well and truly live up to their name
Damn, all right, peter succliffe succliffe
What a man this dude is he's an interesting there's slight differences with this story
Yeah, with a previous serial killers. We've covered. No, he is a he's a real fucking piece of shit
This guy. I don't want to be I don't want to step out of school. I know I know
Um, he's a real piece of shit and then next week. We're gonna hear some more details about him that are
Yeah, I don't know how to put it. So then it's uh, uh shocking
Interesting and unique
Some of the details that we know about peter succliffe. It really makes me wonder
The sort of personal details about serial killers that
Homicide investigators have held back over the years
Because we find out and that we're gonna find out in the next episode like one of the most bizarre details
I've ever heard about a serial killer and it was something that the police held back
They just didn't tell anybody because it wasn't necessary to getting peter succliffe
Imprisoned so they held it back and really makes me wonder how many of these little facts
That we will never know. All right actually exist. Well, that'll be our next week's episode of the yorkshire ripper yorkshire yorkshire ripper
Oh my god
