Cousin Mark joins us to unravel the disturbing case of Peter Sutcliffe, known as the Yorkshire Ripper, a British serial killer who terrorized northern England in the 1970s.

• Born in 1946 with a difficult start as a premature baby with a stutter
• Father's abuse toward his mother created a foundation for his hatred of women
• Motorcycle accident resulted in traumatic brain injury before his crimes began
• Claimed to hear voices from gravestones while working as a gravedigger
• First killed in 1975, developing a pattern of hammer attacks and stabbings
• Targeted primarily prostitutes but eventually attacked other women
• Evaded capture despite being interviewed nine times during the investigation
• Left evidence including size 7 footprints at multiple crime scenes
• Escalated to extreme post-mortem mutilation in some cases
• Investigation became so massive the police station needed structural reinforcement to hold all the paperwork

Join us for part two where we'll continue exploring this chilling case and how Sutcliffe was finally caught.
