SpeedFreak said:I know I'll get flamed for saying this, but I will anyway. On BBC News 24 a woman in Ipswich was being interviewed. She said that she used to walk home alone but would't anymore out of fear. My thought line went like this:
a) you are an 18 stone beast and I bet you don't walk
b) it would be a brave killer to want to carry your body
c) nobody in their right mind would pay to have sex with you
I know, I know, but it's still true![]()

.Same here - I was born in Ipswich and the majority of my relatives live in villages around the outskirts of the town.Admiral Huddy said:The majority of my family and frinds live in Ipswich and it's quite shocking when something like this is close to home.
What about the 9 year old daughter of the first victim?MiGSY said:Jesus, they're only prostitutes. It's not like anyone is going to be missing them except the desperate low-lives that utilise their services.

The modus operandi of the Yorkshire Ripper was that he cut their bowels open and wrapped the intestines around their necks.
This was how they knew it was him.
A5H said:The suffolkator. That's what we should call him/her.
Since there is no ripping involved.
Also, this prompted me to read crime library for ages and then read up on some Jeffrey Dahmer guy.
I clicked the pics on another site and threw up a bit in my mouth.

Agreed - what Jack the Ripper did to his victims, particularly the final one, was absolutely horrific.Slinwagh said:Er wasn't that Jack the Ripper ?

As far as I knew - happy to be proved wrong - Peter Sutcliffe either strangled or killed his victims with a blow to the head. Or is that just what the media led everyone to believe?
