Blackout Ripper: The Serial Killer Of Wartime | Murder Maps | Real Crime

[@kennajaques4144]

The most accurate telling of my grandmother, Margaret's murder l've found on KZbin. However, you got one point wrong, how she was found. The neighbours didn't sound the alarm, my mother, Barbara, came home from boarding school as had been arranged for her time off. The key would normally be on a string behind the mail slot if her mother wasn't home, but the key wasn't there. My mother didn't know what to do, so she went to the neighbourhood shop, the shop owner came back with my mom. He asked the neighbours, and there was a pile of mail sitting inside the door. That's when the police were called. Otherwise very well done. You stuck mostly to the facts, thanks for that

I find it funny the way they spent so long in this episode blaming murders on guns, gun culture and "Americanization" when all along the murderer was British and did not use guns as part of the murders. As for guns, when these murders took place there were literally millions of British troops and police armed with guns becuase there was a world war on!... Not to mention in the UK countryside there are millions of shotguns and rifles owed for hunting, pest control, sports etc that were about in the 1940's and still right up to this day where shooting is common place.

You’ll be killing a good person!” They beg and plead for mercy, begging society not to make the same mistake they did. Yeah, I know, right? Ted Bundy was one of the biggest baby, and he brutally slaughtered those women. I say they owe it to society to sit up, back straight, and take your punishment like a man, (or woman). For once in life be brave, and accept what happens when you kill people.
