Maybe the victims werent chosen because they were menstruating but they were killed because of it. Imagine that the killer charmed these women and thinking he was on a promise of sex, walked these ladies home, probably after a kiss and cuddle, then being turned down to go any further because these women were menstruating or discovering they were, he flew into a murderous rage feeling duped or led on. I think there will be more victims that were either raped or maybe even consented and never saw his evil side as he got what he wanted from them and the victims felt they couldnt come forward due to attitudes toward victims in that era.

[@VioletJoy]

Interesting thought.

[@potato_rae]

That's what I was thinking! No way he'd know that before his awful acts.

[@sarahstout5677]

This is my personal theory as well; it's called survivorship bias. Because we only focus on victims that meet a particular criteria - women on their period - we don't look at anything else. What if Bible John's intention was to rape, but when he came upon a menstruating women (who are "unclean"), he murdered them instead? We aren't paying attention to other victims because we're only focused on murdered ones, and because of that, other potential witnesses were never identified.

[@feelthejoy]

That is generally the thought behind this unifying factor. To suggest otherwise means people aren’t paying attention to the research that has been done on this case.

[@mirandagoldstine8548]

Yeah. But unfortunately it might have been a remnant of medieval belief that women who had intercourse while menstruating were impure and tainted. And these dance halls might have implied they wanted to hook up hence why they went out. I think that’s in part what drove Bible John to commit those horrendous crimes.

The police made quite a few significant mistakes by dismissing potentially key avenues of inquiry and by getting tunnel vision in their focus on just one theory with regards to suspects. That said, they are human like the rest of us and they make mistakes. The sad part is that whoever killed those three women got away with murder.

[@VioletJoy]

That's actually not accurate. I looked into the case online and found that there was a massive investigation, much of which was not shared in this video for some reason. They didn't get tunnel vision at all. They were allowing the evidence to lead them, but there just wasn't much to go on. Evidently, at first, they didn't think 2 of the cases were necessarily connected for a few reasons, one being that they were 18 months apart. Anyway, here is some info I discovered: Over 100 investigators were assigned to the case full-time 16 undercover male and female detectives went to the ballroom twice a week Over 450 hairdressers in the area were shown the sketch Over 50,000 witness statements were taken Over 5,000 potential suspects were questioned in the first year alone

The reason why the police gave so much prominence to the clues of the bite marks, was that these had proved vital in catching the murder of a girl named Peacock, who was murdered in the Lanarkshire town of Biggar in 1967. Forgotten Scotland has covered this case on KZbin.

This guy could still be alive you know he would be quite old now but its scary to think that this guy has been walking around free for decades without anyone realising of the crimes that he commited and he likely has more victims that we don't know about serial killers don't usually stop killing unless they're physically incapable of doing so and the fact that these murders happened well over 50 years ago gave him more than enough time to go on another killing spree at some point

[@mirandagoldstine8548]

Yeah. I have a theory on why he was so hyper focused on menstruating women. I think Bible John was brought up in a strict, fundamentalist household that stated that women who were on their periods were unclean. You see Judaism actually has a reference to menstrual blood by stating that they (women) are tainted during their periods and in the past the Church specified that women should not have intercourse while menstruating. In fact after a women’s menstrual cycle ends the woman was expected to take a ritual bath to purify herself in order to wash away the impurity. At least that’s what I recall from what I learned via reading certain Jewish texts and books on Medieval history. I’m trying not to let a bias form because of my knowledge but that’s been my theory on what drove Bible John to commit his crimes. If anyone has any theories of their own I would be interested to read them. Whatever the case may be this person was clearly not stable mentally and he took mothers away from their children. Hopefully he is rotting away in Helheim where he belongs.

I'm always curious why so many are quick to chastise detectives. There was a MASSIVE investigation. It's not always easy, and we're only hearing a short summary of what happened. Imagine if we had to sort through every detail as it came in without knowing a single thing. Just in case you haven't looked into the case, here are some details I found: Over 100 investigators were assigned to the case full time 16 undercover male and female detectives went to the ballroom twice a week Over 450 hairdressers in the area were shown the sketch Over 50,000 witness statements were taken Over 5,000 potential suspects were questioned in the first year alone

[@thechaz83]

If John thought the Barrowland Ballroom was such a bad place wtf was he doing there??

At least that’s my theory based on reading about ancient Judaism and Medieval history.

You should listen to Pat Brown. It's not 'victim blaming' to encourage young people, both men and women, to be careful. Read 'killing for sport'. The reality is, there are predators out there and we all need to take care not to elevate our risk. Before I leave the house I evaluate risk, and rather than having a go at the media it would be better to encourage all young people to do the same. For example, don't take taxis home with strangers. It's basic safety advice, and blaming the media will not help a single person be safer in the future. Be more responsible in your analysis.

From what I could find online, within hours of finding her sister's body, police released a sketch according to Jean's description, even later improving it using new technology. 🤔 Jean was brought in 300 times to view potential suspects in a lineup. Although bouncers gave a different description and said hers was not accurate, her description was the one used. I saw direct quotes from police reports, none of which shamed the women or indicated that they deserved it. Saying things like they "were known to be promiscuous" is a fair note to keep in mind. It could possibly show one reason why they were chosen, especially considering the perpetrator acted holier than thou.

Tobin just seems too convenient. It's like pinning the Green River murders on Ted Bundy b/c he was originally from the Seattle area. My guess, due to the mention of rather white-collar/intelligencia attributes, is that he might have been a visiting scholar at Glasgow University. He was someone who'd been in the city long enough to learn the lay of the land but was only there for a finite amount of time. It's heartbreaking to hear the the physical evidence was improperly stored. That happens more often than it should.

We only heard of the stories where a woman who wasn't on her best behaviour, in any way at all, was partially at fault. Knowing better now, it just goes to show how the men in charge are so committed to the idea that women are property to be done with as they wish, that if the woman wasn't a saint, that was a reasonable defence to a rape.

I've heard Prof. David Wilson talk about his theory that Peter Tobin may be Bible John & David Wilson makes a convincing argument in the documentary I watched (I wish I could remember the name of it, it may be one of the "Born to Kill" programmes, but I'm not 100% sure). The difficulty with bite marks is that unless they're cross-matched at the time, it's almost impossible to say whether they belong to a particular person or not decades later, as teeth shift over time & with wear. I wouldn't feel comfortable ruling out Prof. David Wilson's theory based on teeth marks.

[@NickPenlee]

Is Helen Puttock's sister Jean still alive I wonder. She described "John" to police and said he looked similar to a previous sketch of the possible killer.

The total of victims of his crimes will probably never be known for sure. In the 1980s Tobin lived in Eastbourne, well-known from the White Cliffs and Beachy Head. He lived there under an assumed name and worked as a handyman for the local church, just like he later did in Glasgow when he raped and murdered Veronica Kluk, the Polish student. As you might know he was convicted to a whole-life tariff for that crime and send to HMP Edinburgh, where he died in October 2022. In 1980 Jessie Earl, a 22 year old woman from Eastbourne, disappeared mysteriously. In 1989 her skeletal remains were found in the undergrowth of bushes on Beachy Head. Her wrists were tied to each other with a bra.....The year before, 1988, Louise Kay, an 18 year old woman from Eastbourne vanished without a trace. She had a habit of sleeping in her car on one of the parking lots at Beachy Head. Kay and her car have never been seen since. Before his murder spree Tobin worked as a car salesman and had connections with scrapyards.....It is possible Kay is buried in Brighton where Tobin had property. The police knew that but for unknown reasons a dig in the garden never materialised....A bit odd, because Police did some digging in Margate, where they found the remains of Vicky Hamilton and Dinah McNicol. Tobin was already convicted for these crimes, as you might know. For the Eastbourne crimes Tobin was never charged by the Crown Prosecution Service for lack of hard evidence.

I totally agree with you. I personally think he was from a fundamentalist Christian household which clung onto the archaic belief once espoused by the Catholic Church that a menstruating woman was impure and she needed to sequester herself away from men not her husband. Thus he probably saw the women who went to those dance halls as “living in sin” and probably felt like he had direct “judgement” upon them for their actions. Of course that may be biased based on my knowledge of old Jewish traditions and Medieval history. Who honestly knows with this case. It would be interesting to know how religious Peter Tobin’s household was when he was growing up because if he was Bible John it would be a catalyst for why he committed those crimes. Not that he is forgiven of his crimes of course. I personally think Bible John is suffering in the afterlife, either rotting away in Helheim or else reincarnated as a measly bug. I honestly don’t know which fate is more fitting for a miserable piece of a human like him.

Maybe it's just a coincidence that all his victims were menstruating. If not, I wonder how "Bible John" knew this. But, I probably don't want to know the answer!

[@louisecoupland]

Earl Street Glasgow. You really have not done this well

[@gabe-po9yi]

I wonder if Tobin had reddish-brown hair and slightly overlapping front teeth at the time. If not for the moral judgment by police at the time, I believe the predator would’ve been caught.

[@ohguy1991]

That's crazy, I had an aunt named Jemima!

[@suzannehaigh4281]

A lot of things about this case are vey suspicious, very suspicious ?

[@eadweard.]

Like the murders?

[@agostinodublino1387]

how are the front teeth of Tobin?!

[@jimmyavpi]

Isnt Angus Snclair and his brother in law the main suspects in these murders?

[@caitlinbures4802]

I’m sorry but the opening? “She didn’t notice anyone was there” oh yeah she was dead?!?!

[@rruth82]

I was puzzled a bit by that part too but hey its free content and they put a lot of work into their videos I'm sure

For sure by now bible john was already dead.he was now in hell reading bible 😅😅😅

[@feelthejoy]

There was DNA that was tested against Tobin that exonerated him in these crimes. He died of cancer following a stroke several years after the attack by another inmate. This is a pretty big mistake on your part. Love your videos and your narration but you’re really damaging your credibility with misinformation like this.

My Uncle was called John Whyte 😮

I knew a Bible Billy who had a pet goat.

You post too frequently to be accurate

[@deborahsteele7582]

I think they had an idea who bible John was but didn't seem to care about the victims because these was independent women this guy was probably known for domestic violence so he had probably been at least been known by the police for his weird behavior and possibly known by preachers or certain churches doing confession I mean he probably had a job were he moved around allot and it wouldn't be unusual to have committed these crimes other places or similar maybe his family was known as a church going family he probably lived in the next or somewhere nearby or somewhere in the middle maybe a loner but not to much because he seemed to be comfortable in crowds and didn't make people feel threatened or anoid about talking about the bible this man wouldn't stop committing these crimes or similar crimes like domestic violence even if he went to church some of his deamesner would be notice at least time to time somebody new bible John he might of been married at the time or a girl friend I believe other people had came in saying they new this man or know of this man he was nice looking but not hasom just enough but average look so would fit in whatever area he lived or working so it would his well spoken demeaner and talking about the bible people would've had notice him

[@KABModels]

Peter Tobin. i would bet money on it.

[@eadweard.]

Not possible.

[@KABModels]

@@eadweard. ive read the various theories, none of which hold too much weight except the DNA not matching, but all that proves is it wasnt him who sexually assaulted the victim on which the DNA was found.

[@eadweard.]

@@KABModels Well we don't need to prove it _wasn't_ Tobin. Rather proponents of the Tobin theory need to prove it was.

[@VioletJoy]

The bite marks didn't match, and there was evidence of him being in England at the time, which is where he lived.

Some very senior detectives seem very convinced _otherwise_ and for a variety of reasons.

Not 5am. Midnight. Big difference.

I think the best thing to do if a family member disappears is to just wait a few days and see if they show up. If they don’t just assume they ran away and get on with your life.
