It wont be long before they catch him, all serial killers work upto a frenzy, they then make mistakes as if they want to be caught. Unless he is caught withen the next few weeks then you can expect the killing to get faster and faster.
Again, why call him a ripper, he aint ripped anyone, same as the yourshire ripper, he never cut anyone open.

Profiling not quite what hollywood would have us believe.doofer said:Some Police Psychologist has said that he'll be a white male, 20's,30's or 40's and will have been let down by a female.
Well, that sure narrows it down a bit eh?
Yes you're right!!!!!! Afterall all crimes are committted by muslims or by secret government conspiracies seeking to blame muslims!!!!!!!nealw said:what are the odds it will be a muslim and that the capture and trial will re-instigate British support of the so called 'War on Terrorism'...

Wrong, serial killers will at first kill close to home, he will start killing maybe one time, then when he gets away with it he will becime more confident.
The longer he gets away with it the fatser he will kill. the urge overtakes them, and thats when they make mistakes.

The majority of my family and frinds live in Ipswich and it's quite shocking when something like this is close to home.
I wouldn't mind but my mum called me to ask if my wife was ok, after a night out

Quite shocking really, although this did instantly make me think of a recent series on the Discovery Channel there were two episodes of "Crimes That Shook the World" that had some striking similarities to this case, although most serial killers you could say fall into this pattern. They were all prostitutes, they were found in a rural area pretty much like a 'stomping' ground for the killer, one was strangled (not heard about the rest but it is quite usual for serial killers to kill in the same way). Coincidence that these killlings have just recently started only a month or so after this series, it was quite detailed in the shortcomings of the police in foreign countries, things they missed, how the killer managed to get away with certain things, how he identified and lured his victims away from their normal 'patches' or neighbourhoods? Did these programs prove the trigger for this person to start on his path of rape/killing?
The Vienna Strangler - Jack Unterweger - In 1990, the first year after his release for killing an 18yr old prostitute by strangling her with her bra (in 1974), law enforcement in Austria found later that he killed six prostitutes mostly by strangling them with their bra's. In 1991, he was hired by an Austrian magazine to write about crime in Los Angeles, California, writing articles about prostitution and riding around town with the local police. During his time in Los Angeles, three prostitutes Shannon Exley, Irene Rodriguez, and Sherri Ann Long were beaten, sexually assaulted with tree branches, and finally strangled with their own brassieres. He was convicted and sentenced to life in prison but appealed, whilst waiting for the appeal he took his own life, so the sentence was never legally valid. The damning factor was that he used the exact same 'signature' knot on his hangmans noose as used in all the previous murders.
The Phoenix Strangler - Sipho Agmatir Thwala - South Africa's "Phoenix Strangler," Sipho Agmatir Thwala, is suspected of raping and strangling 19 victims with their underwear before burying them in shallow graves. On March 31, 1999, the Durban High Court found Thwala guilty of only 16 murders and 10 rapes, and he was sentenced to 506 years in prison.

I agree with some of the other comments oin this thread where people are automatically assuming the murderer is a man. Of course, it is highly likely that the perpetrator is a man, but the media, police and the public all seem to have made up their minds before anyone has been caught.

Which is what appears to be happening already. They are examining missing prostitute cases back until 1992 now, in both Ipswich and Norwich

Lets hope that women in the area are more cautious now.
For the person who commented that they are 'only prostitutes' what do you think the man is systematically killing prostitutes because they are prostitutes, or merely because they are an easy target?
We don't know. Now ask yourself what happens as the police start trying to canvas the area at night - the strangler may seek non-prostitute targets.
Even so, a prostitute is still a person and I am very sad that this is happening. Although it does fill me with a morbid curiosity as we have not had a serial killer in a while.
