About this episode
Between 1975 and 1980, The Yorkshire Ripper terrorized Northern England. His attacks and murders were reminiscent of Jack The Ripper, who operated in the late 1800s. Letters signed Jack The Ripper and a recording supposedly of the killer's voice only served to taunt the police. Join Mike and Morf as they discuss the crimes of Peter Sutcliffe, aka The Yorkshire Ripper. In this second and last episode on The Yorkshire Ripper, we detail Peter Sutcliffe's background and arrest. People began questioning why the police hadn't identified Sutcliffe sooner, which could have saved lives.
