Crimewatch UK June 1991

Nick Ross and Sue Cook present. Cases include the murders of Glenda Potter in Kent and Peter Rasini in London. The show also features the case of the Jo Ramsden who went missing in Dorset.

[@mariaasombrada3964]

Causing harm to the good, the kind and the defenceless is certainly a special category of a mortal sin. RIP Jo.

[@spaceytracey1237]

Took the words right out of my mouth. Hopefully in the comments someone will have knowledge of whether she was found safe and well and returned to her parents. If indeed she did come to harm, I truly hope that the scumbag who did it was found and dealt with the proper way a person so low should be dealt with.

Good Evening Crimewatchers.Good Evening RedCard 74.Thanks,As always for the upload.Time to put my feet up - it's Crimewatch time !!!! Have a good evening one and all

[@86compgeek]

Remember watching this as a kid at the time. The leg that the schoolkid saw gave me nightmares. Don't know why, but I found it very creepy lol

[@rutter1ify]

💯

[@tomgraham6071]

Exactly!! Me too. I was aged 9, trying to find excuses to come downstairs when I should have been in bed and my dad was watching, telling me not to get comfortable as I should be in bed. I saw the leg and it gave me the shivers as I lay in bed...scary.

[@SRlikethetoothpaste]

At this point it's looking increasingly like we'll never get to know who the owner of the leg was. I bet when they were sat there (33 years ago) they never thought that their right leg would be discussed on the internet all these years later. Judging by the witnesses description, plus what we know about it being a schoolboy smokers hotspot, I would be surprised if it was an errant pupil bunking off PE. The naughty lad probably didn't come forward for fear of being implicated in the murder.

Poor Jo. So sad. I’m glad her killer was caught

[@Hi-kq1vi]

Total parasite, he preyed on the most vulnerable in society & raped them. Seeing as they had the mental age of young children I don't see why he shouldn't have been treated as a paedophile by the law.

[@JC-ss7xy]

Its unsolved. He was never convicted

[@kevintraynor4508]

Is there a program of the solved case , and was the man she walked of with the killer?

[@scoot8534]

DID they ever catch the beastly cowardly bastard who took poor Jo , MONSTER

[@fraser_mr2009]

still unsolved.

[@gantzdevries5321]

They know who did it, just didn't have enough evidence to charge the sicko, he shares the same name a famous American actor, last update on him he was in Broadmoor.

[@LALakersNornIron]

There is a prime suspect. A convicted serial abductor and rapist of young women with learning disabilities/ down syndrome. He was caught two years after Jo was murdered and had started his crime series three years before in 1988. He lived only 15 miles away from Bridport and his confirmed victims were abducted in the Dorset and Weymouth areas. He would abduct them take them miles and miles away, sexually assault them and abandon them. Unfortunately they couldn't make a murder charge in relation to Jo stick.

[@mrkipling2201]

I used to work at church road market. Had a stall selling handbags about 11-12 years ago. The Peter Rossini case is very strange. No apparent motive. Although the drugs angle or the possible link to maybe handling stolen goods or buying antiques that he couldn’t check the provenance of is definitely a consideration for a motive.

[@spaceytracey1237]

Why tf did the security van follow a sole rider on a motorbike onto a lane out of the way? Doesn't make any sense imo. The van could have just turned any corner to get to a place where there was witness's who would have put the robbers right off following through. Was the driver or the man who travelled with him in on the robbery?

The Birkenhead rapist was caught - his name was Paul Spencer, and he was sentenced to seven-and-a-half years in prison in 1992. Source: Crimewatch True Crime Stories Solved, by Liz Mills.
