[@Offical_RemyKWNicholls]

I know someone who, whilst visiting a family member at Broadmoor, was fortunate to meet (and even geg a picture with) him, this was mid to late 2019. By this time, Sutcliffe had suprisingly reformed, but the reason why is simply tragic when you think about it.: He remembered who he was (that he was Peter Sutcliffe) He knew where he was, but couldn't remember why he was there. You could talk to him about the Ripper, and a memorable reply was, "Ah yes, I remember police interviewing me about the murders he comitted..... Did they actually ever catch him in the end?" He remembered The Ripper But didn't remember that he WAS The Ripper. A family member of his said it was like his whole time as the Ripper had been "ripped" (no pun intended) from his memory and replaced by that of one of the original suspects.

@@sam0318 Agreed! People complaining about that documentary saying it focused on the victims and not the killer only reveal themselves to be the creeps they clearly are. Also, the police were incredibly incompetent and so it is right to highlight that as well and the way certain members of society were spoken about by the police and media was disgraceful.

[@elizabethc18]

@@sam0318 The reason for the intense focus on the killer is an attempt to explain the psychology behind their motives and if their upbringing/life in general had any effect or they were just psycho to begin with. Ed Kemper had a severely manipulative and emotionally abusive mother, who undoubtedly fueled his hatred for women. There are lots of serial killers who have reported that certain incidents in their lives inspired them to kill. Not saying abuse justifies murder in any way, it’s just that most people are into true crime because they want to know exactly what made these people do what they did.

[@MultipleSquids]

@@The9ninebar well yeah that’s why it took the police so long to find the killer because they had prejudice against women who went out and called them prostitutes even though there was no evidence for a lot of them actually being prostitutes so they was looking for a man who killed prostitutes and not just women, clearly stated that in the documentary if you actually watched it.

Another aspect of this case was complete lack of record sharing and archaic record keeping by both the Greater Manchester Police and their counterparts in West Yorkshire. Both were brand new forces at the time and it can only be assumed that their reluctance to share info or jointly investigate was as a result of people wanting to make names for themselves within these forces. I worked with a lad from Wearside who had moved to Bolton, 12 miles north of Manchester, at the time. He was interviewed 6 times, ruined his marriage and left him very bitter. Sad tale in which even allowing for the simpler time regarding investigative tools and techniques... Nobody comes out with much credit other than the " switched on" South Yorks officers in Sheffield.

[@noelogara]

Sutcliffe was a copycat killer. He did all the assaults which were mostly sexually motivated. His first murder was in Manchester, Jean Jordan, he battered her thirteen times on the head then pulled her into a double hedge where she lay hidden. He stole her handbag which police report says had fifteen pounds in it. Nine days later he was in his new home and having a house warming party with family and friends. He took his parents home and then drove back to Manchester and pulled Jean's body from the hedge and mutilated it. Five days later he returned again and threw her handbag there with a new fiver. It was issued AFTER the murder. This brought the police to his door. His family were questioned about the alibi. His brother Carl found his blood stained trousers hidden in his pad. Also the handbag. He told his other brother that Peter was the ripper. But he never told the police. He went on to get rich selling BS stories to the tabloids and documentary makers.

[@danieljob3184]

Today the Yorkshire Ripper case is used in DI exams to demonstrate just how easy it is to let prejudice colour the facts of a case.

[@noelogara]

The fact was sutcliffe was O blood group and the ripper was known to be B. That's why he was eliminated 9 times.

[@Tom_Samad]

God bless those two dogs! 😊 And those Sheffield police officers! 👍

[@uidsea]

As an American, it's very interesting to hear more about geography of England and the UK. I'd love to hear about more Europeans.

[@bgggsht]

That's as close to a Jimmy Savile episode as we got so far ;)

[@SomeoneJr]

the "last podcast on the left" series on sutcliffe is very good if you want more into, it really shows just how inept the police were in trying to find him.

[@JohnnyDogs1978]

This case is such a mess. There's an English documentary from the early 2000s that covers so much that I didn't know, and this was before they caught the fake latter and tape maker. The crappy filing system which helped him got away with it for years longer than he should have. I can't remember the name of the documentary but it's on KZbin and goes over an hour. Best doco on this kind of topic, just the facts mam, just the facts.

[@OffGridInvestor]

Wait til you hear about the Wimbledon kidnapping /murder. Just as bungled.

[@noelogara]

Here's why it's a mess. Sutcliffe was a copycat killer. He did all the assaults which were mostly sexually motivated. His first murder was in Manchester, Jean Jordan, he battered her thirteen times on the head then pulled her into a double hedge where she lay hidden. He stole her handbag which police report says had fifteen pounds in it. Nine days later he was in his new home and having a house warming party with family and friends. He took his parents home and then drove back to Manchester and pulled Jean's body from the hedge and mutilated it. Five days later he returned again and threw her handbag there with a new fiver. It was issued AFTER the murder. This brought the police to his door. His family were questioned about the alibi. His brother Carl found his blood stained trousers hidden in his pad. Also the handbag. He told his other brother that Peter was the ripper. But he never told the police. He went on to get rich selling BS stories to the tabloids and documentary makers.

[@eldridgedavis]

I absolutely love this channel ☺️😛🙂🙃

[@thefrecklepuny]

Three of Sutcliffe's victims were sadly found not too far from me right here in Leeds. Namely Wilma McCann, Irene Richardson and Jayne McDonald. McDonald was in fact a friend of my eldest sister. According to my sister, McDonald's boyfreind at the time was arrested and questioned over her murder. Clearly innocent of course.

[@mattdavies3754]

The most interesting serial killer to me the whole investigation was crazy, plus I worked 2 mins from where he was finally caught in Sheffield!

[@pogchampyugoslavia122]

Simon is disappointed how much we like the dark videos

[@daviddonohue7365]

Simon I love your podcast bro it’s awesome...keep pumping out the content🤙🏽👊🏽

[@hannamakela6989]

The police after Jayne MacDonald's body found: "Oh no, the killer killed the wrong woman because she was out AT night! Before he had targeted women OF the night!" The misogyny is really...misogynous.

[@noelogara]

They never say that Jayne was murdered just opposite a singing pub, The Hayfield, that was frequented by pimps and prostitutes. The ripper was attempting to entice one but they were working in pairs because of him.

[@daydreamsandnightmares9843]

As always your videos are so good!

[@pulepebane5679]

I can't believe it only took 7 minutes for someone to dislike this video.

[@kelerews]

maybe yorkshire boogertwatt had some friends.

[@eldridgedavis]

John Humble's ghost probably lol

[@cuttwice3905]

Envy of the Peter or a relative of one of the victims, no doubt.

[@soloskirmisherrts5043]

It usually happens a lot quicker if you're above a million subs. Probably they're from edge lords who look up to serial killers like this guy and Bundy. I've been in a discussion with one of them on this very video, it boggles my mind how some people can have some delusions and idolise these worthless pieces of trash.

[@evanroberts2771]

I can't believe it either. I'd have done it in 5. This should be on the Casual Criminalist channel, not biographics. It literally waited to the last 2 minutes to tell us anything about the man himself. And it was obviously rushed onto any available channel because a few days previously another popular channel featured a doco on him.

I live like 2 miles away from Morley, I knew this story was close to home but didn't realise it was THIS close. My grandfather was one of the officers trying to hunt down the ripper and my uncle was friends with his brother. Mental.

@@noelogara thanks

[@TihetrisWeathersby]

The thing that finally took him down was Covid

[@countmalin70]

Some good from it at least!!

[@Amelia-vk4jt]

Honestly don't know how I missed that, had to have been in the news

[@thegunslinger1363]

Good riddance.

[@kelerews]

what is not to believe? It's not like the government would wait 40 years to put down a serial killer and blame a disease. they would just kill him and say he hung himself in the first month

[@cadetkidkilla]

More than likely just another death that was miss attributed to Covid.

[@jmas893]

Hey.. Is the song at the opening Depeche Mode's "It's No Good" Just wondering.

[@MultipleSquids]

Honestly how much do you have to suck at your job to interview the murderer 9 times and have no suspicions of him even though he fit the description of the killer to a T.

[@waynecornwell3998]

I just watched your documentary on this on Netflix. One saying comes to me when it comes about the police. Even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while. That was the competence of the police investigating this case

[@jleisner1974]

this case was the frame of an 'Endeavour' episode, if memory serves

[@nannyfairy]

Thank you Sarah. Do you have anymore please ?

[@jamessutcliffe846]

Promise we're not related

[@MrOwl-mw3fb]

Thank you for another video.

[@Remmes]

The police really failed on this one, all the prejudice, and not believing the survives..

[@LaylaSpellwind]

At the start of this video, I was like... why are you recommending casual criminalist on Casual Criminalist? Then realised I was on a different Simon Channel again.

[@fwef7445]

truly incompetent police work, so many life's could have been saved if they weren't so inept

[@noelogara]

Sutcliffe's confessions seems to have squared the circle. 9 times eliminated.

[@anarchyantz1564]

Surprised you didnt do this on the Casual Criminalist

[@nicobyrne2774]

Simon this was my neighbor! Bradford was in the same grip as son of Sam ! I’m from Heaton Bradford and it was terrifying even as a young boy ! He got stabbed in eye with a blunt instrument so karma came ! Sonya would not have sex with him she was Alpha female and he was small in every way so vented his Anger on vulnerable girls.

Yeah and I live on the moon
