I'm surprised John Christie wasn't on this list. He was a notorious serial killer in west London and was played by Richard Attenborough in the film 10 Rillington Place. The murders took place around the corner from where my dad lived. He and his sister watched the police removing the bodies from his house.
@Nicky L My nan saw the guy that was wrongly hanged frequently in the local shops and said that he wouldn't have hurt a fly. Christie on the other hand, she always felt uneasy whenever she saw him.
My mates mum used to live in the area of Christie and walked past his house every day to school.She said she probably walked past the house while he doing his thing
Unfortunately I live in Bradford where both the Yorkshire Ripper and the Crossbow killer were residents at the time they were active, indeed a workmate lived in the same block of flats as the Crossbow killer and when the police were hunting the Ripper, I was helping to run a Scout troop in the part of the city where the working girls(prostitutes) based themselves and so the police officers were patrolling in the area and some of the boys were taking the numbers of any car that passed near our building, in the hope of getting their hands on some of the reward that was offered for “information leading to an arrest “.
J the rip never formally identified, loads of rumours, one including Prince Albert Victor, eldest son of Edward 7 and older brother of George 5, was heir to throne but died before his dad and of course ol' George took it, along with his wife lol
A 'baby farm' was a problem in in 19th century . B4 birth control women had unwanted children and left them at a 'baby farm' for a fee. The fee couldn't cover the costs of raising children tho 🥺 In 18th century Thomas Corum used his own money to build a Foundling hospital and school. Part of it's wall still in london. Other older option in Europe was to leave your baby with a nunnery or monastery. They has money to raise children and they would have a life there. Foundling wheels or doors outside christian buildings meant mother's could leave babies safely but anonymously
Denis Neilson killed a lad I knew Steven Sinclair his name was he came from Edinburgh he disappeared one night and we never heard from him again . Until we saw the news and his name and photo came up as one of his victims . He was his last Victim .
As has been said, it's surprised the moors murderers aren't on the list. Ian Brady and Myra Hindley murdered several children in the 1960s and buried them on a remote area of moorland (hence their nickname). The mother of Keith Bennett, one if their victims, spent the rest of her life desperately trying to get them to reveal where they buried her son but Brady led police on several wild goose chases (probably just to get a day out) and he was never found. The poor woman went to her grave never knowing where her son's body lay and unable to give him a proper funeral. I don't believe in the death penalty but I might have bern persuaded to make an exception for the likes of Brady and Hindley. Both died in prison so at least they didn't get to taste freedom again.
Brady used to go on "trips" to the moors to find his victims, always under heavy armed guard to prevent escape - now I'll preface this with allegedly but at least once it was discussed in certain circles of shooting him during a "escape attempt" vile creature who is now burning in hell.
i think if someone has done something as awful as kill several children then they dont really deserve to live, why should they get to live after stopping children having their life
@@theaces3697 check out the case of Lucy letby which us still ongoing I'm the uk, she was a maternity nurse and she is being charged with 9 of murder and 8 counts of attempted murder all babies so fucking sad string her up💯🤬😭
I'm not sure what year they were caught, the death penalty was scrapped in the mid\late 60s so it might not have been a option, also the possibility they were nutted off so no death pen in that case. They tape recorded their victims so no denying what they did I can only assume it wasn't something the judge could give.
There's a fantastic drama about Dennis Nielsen, the guy who murdered many young men for sexual gratification. It's called 'Des' and stars David Tennant (Dr Who) as Dennis Nielsen and he is mesmerising in the role. He was a truly vile man and David Tennant occupied his being with chilling accuracy. It is on 'Sundance' streaming service in the U.S.
i'm a fan of david tennant cassanova,dr who,the omens,broadchurch and staged all brillant! he is a great actor but so nice in person i wondered if he could play such an evil messed up guy and would seeing him play des stop me from wanting to watch him again?the answers are yes he can do a brill job and yes i have know prob watching him now i've seen it!phew!
Imagine my surprise when he first made it big, watching the to thinking I remember him in several plays at Dundee rep theatre when he was much younger when we used to go to the theatre several times a year with school. Wish theatre tickets were as cheap as we used to get for block school bookings, hardly ever go now
Also, David Tennant wouldn't play Dennis Neilson until Neilson was dead since he liked to boast and brag in prison and that would have given him such a big head, especially since David is Scottish like Neilson
It’s crazy how he embodied both personalities of the twins. My partners grandparents knew the twins back in the 60s. We watched the movie with his nan and she told us so many things that were wrong and right with the facts of it. Was very cool to have the perspective of someone that knew them. She often says she doesn’t need or like watching these type of movies because she lived that time and didn’t need to see the ‘Hollywood’ version of events
@@Terminator0713 I agree and didn’t watch legend for 5 years because of it but the cinematography is awesome and Tom hardy did well. But the krays themselves had input into the original film and that means it has to be better - the only thing that was wrong is that their mother NEVER swore, so legends portrayal of her is more realistic. But still definitely agree :)
@@ajandrianjafymusic oh my gosh the questions I’d have! My mum met reg in the 90s and she’s been obsessed my entire life (34 years) even I was pointing out things that were wrong but overall the film is excellent and the cinematography is mind blowing. My Nan isn’t the brightest spark (no dementia or anything) and has no idea who the krays are. Like really? Anyway I digress. You were very lucky to have learned the facts and I’m jealous lol
Yes the exclusion of the Brady and Hindley surprised me. my late husband worked for the Department of work and pensions as it is now known and so did Dennie Neilson. neilson was on a Trade Union committe that my husband was trying to bash out a deal with and they were at the same meeting table for several times. My husband said he wasn't surprised when the truth came out as he always found him odd and a bit creepy.
There were plenty more "baby farmers" to chose from too. In fact you could do a top 10 just on female killers of children. Then you have the most dangerous serial killer in custody: Joanna Dennehy.
My brother saw Doc Shipman once when his own GP wasn’t available. He wasn’t killed but said it was the most creepiest appointment he ever had. When it came out that Doc Shipman had killed, my brother went as white as a sheet, the only thing he could say was « I told you there was something not right with that guy....he was so creepy » and he had seen him way before he got caught. But I guess the creepiness really stayed with him to recognize him straight away on the news.
Please don't big-up Stephen Griffiths, or buy into his story of cannibalism, that only feeds his desire for notoriety. He adopted at his first court hearing the "Crossbow Cannibal" name, knowing it would splash on the front pages of the tabloids. I nursed Stephen in 1992 when he was referred for psychiatric assessment, but after 2-3 weeks he was shipped back to HMP Wakefield, the forensic psychiatrists having found him to be a narcissistic psychopath, a judgement we all agreed with. He already hero-worshipped serial murderers, especially the more sadistic ones, having a voracious appetite for anything written about them. And even back then I heard him saying killing someone "must be the ultimate thrill". However, outside of his own self-agrandising words (as he saw it), there has never been any evidence of cannibalism. Some remains of two victims were found in the River Aire, forensically very degraded by their immersion and the time elapsed, but there were most certainly not any body parts in his fridge. On a separate note, the horses pulling my wife's hearse were to have been Bonny and Clyde, but they were unavailble, so we got Ronnie and Reggie: I don't know what that says about funeral directors...
@@Spiklething Indeed, that might ordinarily be a justified concern but, owing to his subsequent offending behaviour, all such details entered to public domain through the court hearings.
The Yorkshire Police recently apologised to the families of the early victims. They’d labelled them as prostitutes simply because they were women who went out drinking without a husband. While some were prostitutes, most of the YR’s victims were not. He simply targeted women walking alone at night. The Police’s focus on prostitution meant that many survivors of his attacks were not connected to the case because they didn’t fit the erroneous ‘victim profile’ the Police were working with. His later claim that he was killing prostitutes because God told him to was a ploy to have himself declared mentally unfit and sent to hospital rather than jail. The whole YR case was rife with ‘old white geezer syndrome’ - they dismissed the victims as prostitutes, they neglected to use computer databases to collate information, and they took uncorroborated ‘evidence’ which was later found to be faked as fact over actual scientific evidence and witness statements. He’d been interviewed by several different investigators, and his name had been put forward as a suspect dozens of times, but no one followed up on it. I was just chance he got caught when he did - it certainly wasn’t Police work.
I watched an interview with one of the victims son, he said he didn't think about what she was, she was his mum, and a good mum at that, oh that made me cry.
Agree totally, I was one of 150 officers designated as part pf of " The Ripper Squad " For some reason, the Chief Constable of West Yorkshire police put his most senior officer in charge. His name was George Oldfield then aged 52 and die to retire in two years. For the previous six years, he was in charge of minor admin duties ie in charge of purchasing things like uniform or vehicles. He had one years training as a detective, mainly dealing with home breaking and fraudulent use of credit cards etc. This guy, literally, could not detect shit on his shoe. Very few victims were working ladies of the night, but George wanted headline news to highlight public awareness. Sutcliffe was 'invited ' for interview no less than seven times, once by myself. In my defence by then the hover, was particularly rampant and because Sutcliffe didn't have a measured gap in his teeth or the blood type taken by forensic experts from saliver on the letters, he was released as clean . He really was a lucky B@st@rd. We estimated his total victims was over 70, major assaults plus 25 murder victims.
I read a book recently that stated a similar thing about Jack The Ripper's victims as well. Due to the angle of the 'killing blow', some believe that a few of his victims were sleeping homeless women rather than prostitutes.
The Yorkshire Ripper ain’t alive anymore. He died an agonising COVID related death. Dennis Nilsson was recently portrayed by David Tennant in the TV series ‘Des’.
Always remember the day my dad was interviewed in the "ripper" case as we lived in sunderland and when the tapes arrived the police interviewed truck drivers who had or been to Leeds with the job. My dad at the time had a beard and dark hair very much like the ripper. It was a very very strange time to be alive and as a kid it was talked about so much!
simular to my old man but he worked in leeds at the time he looked like sutcliffe with a teesside accent(most people would call him a mackem or a geordie who werent from the north east), he got interviewed, even my wife whos into true crime when she saw a pic off my dad first thing she said was why u got a photo off peter sutcliffe
@@asylumgamingcartel6137 my dad was the same but his brother was spitting dabs of Sutcliffe and even now still has the same beard and creeps me out a bit lol. Me and my brother used to sit on the wall next to the command center the police had just so we would be on Tele the next day on the news. Always remember the CID officers name he was called Bull! It was definitely a strange time for sure.
My Dad was interviewed too. He was in Preston in Lancashire though, were there had been a copycat killing initially linked to Sutcliffe. He too had black hair and a beard 😑
@@ianprince1698 no they had tapes sent in from "Wearside Jack" so the focus ended up in Sunderland. He was later found and convicted of sending in the tapes.
I love lists like this as I'm a true crime buff, but this list kind of freaked me out as I have shirt tail connections to 3 of them and seeing them on the same list makes me feel kind of unlucky! (Harold Shipman worked for a time at our local hospital and is believed to have victims here, a friend (never a sex worker) went on a couple of dates with Peter Sutcliffe, the Yorkshire Ripper, and a friend's mum was married to a man that ran with the Kray brothers. When I met her she was in her 70s and very petite - 5 foot, if that, and looked like a bit of a breeze could take her out. I didn't know of her former mob connections until I watched her run off a bike gang that was demanding protection money from a club we just happened to be in. She may have left that life decades before, but you did not want to be on the wrong side of her because she could go from sweet lil old dear to having balls of steel and a sprinkling of absolutely unhinged in a blink. It still tickles me remembering it - it was unreal to see.
I was talking to someone online a couple of years back about something & her dad had worked with\for Fred West in the building trade, he went to their house once or twice apparently Free was "nice" but Rose was very rude. He couldn't have know what was in the cellar but was physically sick when the news broke. In the last year they've searched a place where West worked laying a floor as they though there might be more victims.
My grandma knew the Sutcliffe family! My mum used to go round their family house as a child (about 6) and she played with one of the girls that was there. She told me Peter actually seemed nice whenever he was round there and that the girl took her into one of the rooms to show her a wardrobe covered with a black sheet!!Inside was a load of masks and stuff but being young, she was scared of saying anything. Peter once gave her a badge with a black lynx on it and she threw it away once she heard what he did 😳 She later found out that he was actually out killing a woman on her birthday one year. Creepy
Thanks. The thought of that man ever being released made me feel sick. If he refused treatment for Covid he must have known he would never be released from prison. THANK YOU THE COVID VIRUS.
Jack the Ripper was never identified. There have been many theories and suggestions about who he might have been, but after this long I think we just have to accept that we'll never know for sure. Every now and then people come forward with 'evidence' that 'proves' that someone was Jack, but it all ends up being circumstancial or requires huge assumptions.
@@spareumbrella8477 the issue is as so much time has passed and stories told within families have been diluted down the generations we will never 100% know who he was and as horrible as it is I don’t really want to know. His legend horrific as it is, is why he is so revered.
I believe it was George Hutchinson. Hutchinson was Mary Kelly's boyfriend who was an extremely jealous man and used to read her about the killings. They broke up about 2 weeks before her murder. Her door key also disappeared around the same time. There was a witness outside on the night of her murder who saw her go into her rooms with a gentleman. Guess who that witness was?that's right,her exboyfriend George Hutchinson,and her front door was locked when the police turned up
One thing that is certain is that he didn't go around in a cape and top hat like Alice Cooper. The murders took place in 1888, not1828, and anyone looking like that would have been spotted a mile away.
Here's another nurse for you from my local hospital, Stepping Hill, Stockport. A nurse has been convicted of murdering two patients and poisoning 20 others at a Greater Manchester hospital. Victorino Chua killed Tracey Arden, 44, and Derek Weaver, 83, at Stepping Hill Hospital in Stockport by injecting insulin into saline bags and ampoules. These were then unwittingly used by other hospital nurses on Chua's victims, who were mostly elderly. The father of two, 49, who was cleared of a third murder charge, left one patient with a serious brain injury.
My little Irish Aunt was working in a cafe in my hometown of Cheltenham in the early 90's. Fred West was a regular customer and even offered me Aunt a lift home when my uncle was late to pick her up. She rejected the offer as she said he always gave her creeps. Couple of years after, Fred and Rose were arrested.
Another great video jt, one of the most shocking and saddest cases in the UK for me is the killing of James bulger you should check it out, warning its an emotional one 😭a case that is ongoing at the minute is the case of Lucy letby a maternity nurse in the UK charged with 9 counts of murder and 8 counts of attempted murder all babies and nobody is talking about this absolutely disgusting 🤬 random fact about Rose West and myra Hindley is that they hooked up together in prison
Every few years someone publishes a new book claiming to have identified Jack the Ripper, usually claiming he was someone famous. It’s almost always met with loads of publicity then quickly disproven.
This list seems a little off too me no mention of Mayra Hindly and Ian Brady ( aka the moores murders), or Mary Bell and child who killed a child. But then there are so many veil pepole it must be hard to narrow the list.
Interesting (or useless) fact for you JT, the Kray twins have also be portrayed by the Kemp Brothers from the band Spandau Ballet, and it was a pretty good film for it's time.
I saw a tv interview of people who knew the Kray twins and they all said the media blew out of proportion the things they done except going in a bar and shooting George Cornell
JT, if you want to come to England then I would HIGHLY recommend watching Only Fools and Horses and Faulty Tower's and doing reaction videos as there so many side splitting laughs. English humour at is finest!
Baby farming was a weird time. During the 1800's a law known as the Bastardy clause was enacted which absolved parental responsibility of fathers to their bastard children (In a effort to restore virtue and female morality, eheh) . This did not decrease the instances of illigitimate children as they thought it would. Instead, the mothers were unable to raise their children while working and with the scale of the issue baby farming became popular. Sometimes this would be as in the video - a one off payment, other times it would be weekly payments etc with the 'nanny' looking after many children at a time. Anyhow, it was taken advantage of, many simply starved to death or were neglected in other ways and at it's height there were daily front tabloid spreads of dead babies being left in the street. This caused the law to be reformed and is the bases of many of our child support laws today. "Reform of the Bastardy Laws paralleled the fight for the protection of infant life, and in 1872 they were amended to make the putative father equally liable for the support of the illegitimate child until the age of 16, and it enabled the poor law boards to aid mothers in obtaining support for their children. This law served as the basis of dealing with the financial management of illegitimate children until 1957"
Fun fact about Jack the Ripper. Back when he’d murdered maybe 2/3 women, Inspector Abberline of Scotland Yard considered using blood hounds to track jack. When the newspapers got wind of the plan they ridiculed him and Scotland Yard and he was told not to use the dogs by his commanding officers. This would’ve been one of the first times dogs would be used in an official investigation and more than likely would’ve led to jacks arrest. But now we will never know what would’ve happened and who Jack the Ripper actually was for certain.
As a side note to the Krays , my uncle was quite heavily involved with them in the early to mid Sixties. Now, he was a tough man, but he said they were a couple of seriously nasty men.
@@DTAGAFFA Whether you are taking the pi$$..wrongly..I don't know, but my uncle actually was involved with them and was born in Bethnal Green. He can be seen in a number of photos that have the twins in. If you choose not to believe me, I don't actually care tbh.
I had to study fred and Rose West in my psychology classes. There was another one who would breed with and then kill his daughters/wives . When the kids grew to be adults he would continue the cycle. So many sick and disgusting men and women. 😢. Xx
She killed 400 babies! Think how many offspring those babies would have grown up to have and how many people who would have been descendents of those babies would have been alive today if not for that woman!

The UK has a higher rate of violent crime than the US. UK citizens understand if guns were readily available the murder rate as the result of guns would be absolutely ridiculous, so the UK’s populace backs the heavily restricted system we have now.
Shipman - they stopped counting mid 250 victims as they could not go back far enough due to the records being destroyed, but it estimated that he killed at least 400+ as all the victims had the same modus operandi on the death certificate and the victims relations. There is a special place in hell for Shipmen..~Trooper
Many moons ago when I was in hospital, my aunt and I went for a wander down to the WRVS shop. We passed a bloke who smiled brightly at us and I smiled right on back, said "Hello!", waved etc etc. My aunt had this quirk where her eyes would bug clean out of her head when something wasn't right. Anyway, we reached the shop, and my aunt was like "Are you out of your bloody mind? That was Charles Bronson, you idiot!" To be fair, I was 11 and heavily drugged LOL
Just seen your subscribers number now and I have been watching you since it was in single digits. Much love from the UK 🇬🇧 keep the content coming 👍🏻👍🏻
Not to downplay the obvious seriousness of any of these monsters but purely to lighten the mood a little bit, I remember many years ago going into a gents' toilet somewhere and there being as sign that read, " Please flush twice....it's a long way to the kitchen. " By the way, JT, they made a drama out of Harold Shipman's murder spree and he was portrayed by James Bolam who was more famous for appearing as Terry Collier in the British comedies 'The Likely Lads' and 'Whatever Happened To The Likely Lads?' during the 1960's and 1970's. They also made another television drama out of the Wests called ''Appropriate Adult' where Fred West was portrayed by Dominic West ( no relation to either of those monsters ) and Monica Dolan portrayed his wife Rose. Three other monsters that were omitted from this list were the Moors Murderers, Ian Brady and Myra Hindley, as well as John Christie who was more familiarly known as Reg Christie to his family and friends and who murdered at least 8 women in the 1940's and 1950's. While both Hindley and Brady died in prison Christie was hanged in July 1953 for his crimes.
There was a rhyme for Mary Cotton, can’t remember it all but it started Mary Anne Cotton She is dead and rotten The rest I cannot remember but no doubt you can find out .
My dad went to college in Manchester around the time the Yorkshire ripper was about and he got interviewed by the police because there was a body found in the area where my dad lived at the time. He was at the pub the night it happened and the police apparently already knew where he had been before interviewing him and were just ruling him out. Strange to think my dad could have been or was so close to the Yorkshire ripper whilst he was in the act of killing someone
They tried to blame the murders of two swansea women on him too, they were thinking he might have killed further afield, many years later they discovered it was a man whom worked in the top rank nightclub called Joseph Kippen, weirdly he looked simular to Peter Sutcliffe
Fun fact about Harold Shipman - all of his murders over several decades were logged in a single year which obviously made the UK murder rate spike a huge amount as he killed more people than everyone else combined. Sadly this spike coincided with the UK's ban on handguns, so nefarious parties in the USA quote this increase in murder rate and attribute it to the handgun ban, rather than the actual facts. Therefore not only is he responsible for hundreds of deaths directly, the way his figures were used the lie to the American public and argue against gun safety probably killed a few more as well.
JT I'm so jealous of your snow, and it's proper snow with that half crunchy half squeaky sound when you walk on it. After too many year in London with only the occasional wet slushy snow, I was hoping for some snow this weekend in Hertfordshire after 5 days of frost, but no, the temperature is set to rise to 9°C tomorrow (I don't know what thst is in °F) my friends have been posting pictures of snow on Facebook all day. My Finnish and Swedish friends are up to their necks in it even my Wales People cousin has snow. Enjoy it x
My grandfather was questioned by police during Peter Sutcliffe's reign of terror. At the time they thought he could be from their area and they investigated anyone who fit the physical description and it just so happened at the time my grandad looked alot like him, same height same build etc. Obviously it wasn't him but imagine my surprise when years later my grandma told me about the night the police came round to interview my grandad and establish an alibi. Mad story
@@beeduo my grandad lived in Sunderland and for a while they thought the killer was there too if remember correctly, my grandma was asked to leave while they questioned him. He told her after that she had nothing to worry about but he didn't have a solid alibi for everything but luckily he wasn't the only one who was questioned its interesting to hear from someone else who also had similar history.
@uutthyu wait are you trying to say my grandad was spotted in his car in the red light district 3 or more times and that's why he was really questioned
as a scotsman i had to subscribe when you said how powerful was the toilet, and i had the same reaction, to you speaking as when you found out the plumber actually found the bones in the pipes haha, this is gonna be a fun channel. keep it up dude :)
This narrator clearly knows nothing about the *Yorkshire Ripper.* Everywhere he lived was in *Bradford,* and *Bradford* alone. He never lived in *Leeds.* Also *He did not confess, when he got pulled over for having a false number plate.*
I thought that too, the police were suspicious that he might’ve ditched something when he got out of the car so returned to the scene and recovered the knife, hammer and rope the ripper was known to use as murder weapons.
@@punkoid76 Interviewed 10+ times without a confession, yet this narrator thinks he confessed straight away after being caught with a false number plate. I never watch Top 10 channels anymore, but on the rare occasions I watched this one, the other narrator in this video also annoyed me with his misinformation, shouting, screechy voice and mispronunciations. There's one from him in this video that immediately comes to mind, which is him pronouncing *Griffiths* as *Griffins.*
That snow you got is nothing, I work with clearing snow from parking lots and roads and so on and over christmas, i.e christmas eve, christmas day and the day after that i worked a total of 32 hours, we got almost 50 cm (about 19.6 inches) of snow here over christmas, next year i want what you got, no snow at all for christmas xD
Bible John Camden Ripper Stockwell Strangler Hammersmith Nude Killer Beverley Alitt Ian Huntly and Maxine Carr Manchester Pusher Just a few that I remember .
We certainly know how to grow a gruesome criminal over here...but some times they're too close for comfort. When I was 15 the Yorkshire Ripper was "at large" and I clearly remember cancelling evenings out with friends, especially when it was foggy. One of his kills was less than 2 miles from where I lived
i remember back in 79, a group of us from school were at an out of the way pub, we were all underage. p olice came in, they said dont worry about your age we just want you all to listen to this (the ripper tape) The follwing year I was at Dewsbury court hurling abuse at him as he was marched into custody. then 10yrs later I moved house and my next door neighbour had been the clerk of the court the same time at the magistrates court

Peter Sutcliffe & Stephen Griffiths. Both from my home town of Bradford, West Yorkshire. Funny story about Griffiths - I used to work with a guy who lived in the same block of flats as him and he told me that after passing Griffiths on the stairs, his friend remaked to him that "That guy looks like a serial killer" But I would just like to point out that Bradford isn't that bad a place.
Our ITV Television network often makes excellent drama serials about real life murder cases, their series about Mary Cotton and the one about Neilson (starring the brilliant former Dr Who, David Tennant) are particularly good.
Mary Ann Cotton was from the same place (hetton-Le-Hole in County Durham) as my wife, my wife has threatend to murder me shitloads of times over the years, usually when I come home drunk on a Saturday night. Do you think my wife and Mary Ann Cotton are related? 🤔😱
Because of Shipman protocol in UK health care changed . I work in a Nursing Home and although all of our patients are end of life care , if a patient dies and has not been seen by a doctor in the previous two weeks it's classed as a sudden death and we have to call the police . During the Pandemic it was not easy to get a Doctor visit ( our patients are very elderly and frail with multiple health issues ) . Although we had several deaths none necessitated calling the Police as we had at least the option of a video call .
Similarly, a body can only be taken for cremation if 2 doctors (currently 1 since covid hit) have signed forms called part 4 and part 5 (the latter of which has been dropped for the time being) which involve an inspection of the deceased to rule out anything suspicious. This too was a change made because of Shipman.
I'm only at number 5 but I doubt the story I'm thinking of will be there as it was only one murder. About 10 mins from is a house where one the most horrific murders was committed by a teenager, he went to school with my bf and will never get out of prison due to him always being a danger to the public, he murdered a sweet old lady called mabel leyshon you should read up about it, it was a very dark murder and is probably one of the most inconceivable crimes ever committed. There was also suspected satanic rituals performed due to a) the way she was discovered and b) the way an alter and other body parts were discovered. Check it out
How could you miss out Ian Brady and Myra Hindley?
He didn't. The top ten channel did.
That surprised me also, should of been top 3 easy.
I'm surprised John Christie wasn't on this list. He was a notorious serial killer in west London and was played by Richard Attenborough in the film 10 Rillington Place.
The murders took place around the corner from where my dad lived. He and his sister watched the police removing the bodies from his house.
@Nicky L My nan saw the guy that was wrongly hanged frequently in the local shops and said that he wouldn't have hurt a fly. Christie on the other hand, she always felt uneasy whenever she saw him.
my grandad got arrested and was questioned for hrs, he was the image of john christie
My mates mum used to live in the area of Christie and walked past his house every day to school.She said she probably walked past the house while he doing his thing
Good film
The beast of Worcester is the worst UK killer I've heard of and he's out free recently
Unfortunately I live in Bradford where both the Yorkshire Ripper and the Crossbow killer were residents at the time they were active, indeed a workmate lived in the same block of flats as the Crossbow killer and when the police were hunting the Ripper, I was helping to run a Scout troop in the part of the city where the working girls(prostitutes) based themselves and so the police officers were patrolling in the area and some of the boys were taking the numbers of any car that passed near our building, in the hope of getting their hands on some of the reward that was offered for “information leading to an arrest “.
Wow, I live next door to one of the abandoned block of flats where the ripper murdered someone.
As an Englishman I find it more disturbing that you wear a hat indoors then the criminals that you're talking about
J the rip never formally identified, loads of rumours, one including Prince Albert Victor, eldest son of Edward 7 and older brother of George 5, was heir to throne but died before his dad and of course ol' George took it, along with his wife lol
Grim why are they so fascinating
Wait did I miss the moors murders on here?? If it wasn’t included then WHY?!
Can you react to Bobby Cummins he was a British gangster and has a amazing back story you will love it
A 'baby farm' was a problem in in 19th century . B4 birth control women had unwanted children and left them at a 'baby farm' for a fee. The fee couldn't cover the costs of raising children tho 🥺
In 18th century Thomas Corum used his own money to build a Foundling hospital and school. Part of it's wall still in london.
Other older option in Europe was to leave your baby with a nunnery or monastery. They has money to raise children and they would have a life there. Foundling wheels or doors outside christian buildings meant mother's could leave babies safely but anonymously
Sutcliffe died in either 2020 or 2021.
Denis Neilson killed a lad I knew Steven Sinclair his name was he came from Edinburgh he disappeared one night and we never heard from him again . Until we saw the news and his name and photo came up as one of his victims . He was his last Victim .
As has been said, it's surprised the moors murderers aren't on the list. Ian Brady and Myra Hindley murdered several children in the 1960s and buried them on a remote area of moorland (hence their nickname). The mother of Keith Bennett, one if their victims, spent the rest of her life desperately trying to get them to reveal where they buried her son but Brady led police on several wild goose chases (probably just to get a day out) and he was never found. The poor woman went to her grave never knowing where her son's body lay and unable to give him a proper funeral. I don't believe in the death penalty but I might have bern persuaded to make an exception for the likes of Brady and Hindley. Both died in prison so at least they didn't get to taste freedom again.
Brady used to go on "trips" to the moors to find his victims, always under heavy armed guard to prevent escape - now I'll preface this with allegedly but at least once it was discussed in certain circles of shooting him during a "escape attempt" vile creature who is now burning in hell.
i think if someone has done something as awful as kill several children then they dont really deserve to live, why should they get to live after stopping children having their life
Freedom lol they needed hanging
@@theaces3697 check out the case of Lucy letby which us still ongoing I'm the uk, she was a maternity nurse and she is being charged with 9 of murder and 8 counts of attempted murder all babies so fucking sad string her up💯🤬😭
I'm not sure what year they were caught, the death penalty was scrapped in the mid\late 60s so it might not have been a option, also the possibility they were nutted off so no death pen in that case. They tape recorded their victims so no denying what they did
I can only assume it wasn't something the judge could give.
they forgot Tony Blair
well said
And Nigel farage
There's a fantastic drama about Dennis Nielsen, the guy who murdered many young men for sexual gratification. It's called 'Des' and stars David Tennant (Dr Who) as Dennis Nielsen and he is mesmerising in the role. He was a truly vile man and David Tennant occupied his being with chilling accuracy.
It is on 'Sundance' streaming service in the U.S.
i'm a fan of david tennant cassanova,dr who,the omens,broadchurch and staged all brillant!
he is a great actor but so nice in person i wondered if he could play such an evil messed up guy and would seeing him play des stop me from wanting to watch him again?the answers are yes he can do a brill job and yes i have know prob watching him now i've seen it!phew!
Imagine my surprise when he first made it big, watching the to thinking I remember him in several plays at Dundee rep theatre when he was much younger when we used to go to the theatre several times a year with school. Wish theatre tickets were as cheap as we used to get for block school bookings, hardly ever go now
I watched Des recently and David Tennant played the part so well. Dennis Neilsen was certainly a strange man! Chilling is a good word to descibe him.
Also, David Tennant wouldn't play Dennis Neilson until Neilson was dead since he liked to boast and brag in prison and that would have given him such a big head, especially since David is Scottish like Neilson
there's a book based on the story called "stone cold" of which I had to read in school
If you haven’t watched the film legend with Tom hardy playing both main characters you should it is amazing.
I was just about to say the same thing
It’s crazy how he embodied both personalities of the twins. My partners grandparents knew the twins back in the 60s. We watched the movie with his nan and she told us so many things that were wrong and right with the facts of it. Was very cool to have the perspective of someone that knew them. She often says she doesn’t need or like watching these type of movies because she lived that time and didn’t need to see the ‘Hollywood’ version of events
"The Krays" is far better.
@@Terminator0713 I agree and didn’t watch legend for 5 years because of it but the cinematography is awesome and Tom hardy did well. But the krays themselves had input into the original film and that means it has to be better - the only thing that was wrong is that their mother NEVER swore, so legends portrayal of her is more realistic. But still definitely agree :)
@@ajandrianjafymusic oh my gosh the questions I’d have! My mum met reg in the 90s and she’s been obsessed my entire life (34 years) even I was pointing out things that were wrong but overall the film is excellent and the cinematography is mind blowing. My Nan isn’t the brightest spark (no dementia or anything) and has no idea who the krays are. Like really? Anyway I digress. You were very lucky to have learned the facts and I’m jealous lol
Yes the exclusion of the Brady and Hindley surprised me. my late husband worked for the Department of work and pensions as it is now known and so did Dennie Neilson. neilson was on a Trade Union committe that my husband was trying to bash out a deal with and they were at the same meeting table for several times. My husband said he wasn't surprised when the truth came out as he always found him odd and a bit creepy.
There were plenty more "baby farmers" to chose from too. In fact you could do a top 10 just on female killers of children. Then you have the most dangerous serial killer in custody: Joanna Dennehy.
My brother saw Doc Shipman once when his own GP wasn’t available. He wasn’t killed but said it was the most creepiest appointment he ever had. When it came out that Doc Shipman had killed, my brother went as white as a sheet, the only thing he could say was « I told you there was something not right with that guy....he was so creepy » and he had seen him way before he got caught. But I guess the creepiness really stayed with him to recognize him straight away on the news.
Please don't big-up Stephen Griffiths, or buy into his story of cannibalism, that only feeds his desire for notoriety. He adopted at his first court hearing the "Crossbow Cannibal" name, knowing it would splash on the front pages of the tabloids.
I nursed Stephen in 1992 when he was referred for psychiatric assessment, but after 2-3 weeks he was shipped back to HMP Wakefield, the forensic psychiatrists having found him to be a narcissistic psychopath, a judgement we all agreed with. He already hero-worshipped serial murderers, especially the more sadistic ones, having a voracious appetite for anything written about them. And even back then I heard him saying killing someone "must be the ultimate thrill".
However, outside of his own self-agrandising words (as he saw it), there has never been any evidence of cannibalism. Some remains of two victims were found in the River Aire, forensically very degraded by their immersion and the time elapsed, but there were most certainly not any body parts in his fridge.
On a separate note, the horses pulling my wife's hearse were to have been Bonny and Clyde, but they were unavailble, so we got Ronnie and Reggie: I don't know what that says about funeral directors...
You nursed him? Just a bit concerned about patient confidentiality here if that is true.
@@Spiklething Indeed, that might ordinarily be a justified concern but, owing to his subsequent offending behaviour, all such details entered to public domain through the court hearings.
"How powerful is that damn toilet?!" Made me laugh....
6:48 which is no longer true as Peter died from covid in prison in late 2020
The Yorkshire Police recently apologised to the families of the early victims. They’d labelled them as prostitutes simply because they were women who went out drinking without a husband. While some were prostitutes, most of the YR’s victims were not. He simply targeted women walking alone at night. The Police’s focus on prostitution meant that many survivors of his attacks were not connected to the case because they didn’t fit the erroneous ‘victim profile’ the Police were working with. His later claim that he was killing prostitutes because God told him to was a ploy to have himself declared mentally unfit and sent to hospital rather than jail. The whole YR case was rife with ‘old white geezer syndrome’ - they dismissed the victims as prostitutes, they neglected to use computer databases to collate information, and they took uncorroborated ‘evidence’ which was later found to be faked as fact over actual scientific evidence and witness statements. He’d been interviewed by several different investigators, and his name had been put forward as a suspect dozens of times, but no one followed up on it. I was just chance he got caught when he did - it certainly wasn’t Police work.
I watched an interview with one of the victims son, he said he didn't think about what she was, she was his mum, and a good mum at that, oh that made me cry.
Agree totally, I was one of 150 officers designated as part pf of " The Ripper Squad "
For some reason, the Chief Constable of West Yorkshire police put his most senior officer in charge. His name was George Oldfield then aged 52 and die to retire in two years.
For the previous six years, he was in charge of minor admin duties ie in charge of purchasing things like uniform or vehicles.
He had one years training as a detective, mainly dealing with home breaking and fraudulent use of credit cards etc.
This guy, literally, could not detect shit on his shoe.
Very few victims were working ladies of the night, but George wanted headline news to highlight public awareness.
Sutcliffe was 'invited ' for interview no less than seven times, once by myself.
In my defence by then the hover, was particularly rampant and because Sutcliffe didn't have a measured gap in his teeth or the blood type taken by forensic experts from saliver on the letters, he was released as clean .
He really was a lucky B@st@rd.
We estimated his total victims was over 70, major assaults plus 25 murder victims.
I read a book recently that stated a similar thing about Jack The Ripper's victims as well. Due to the angle of the 'killing blow', some believe that a few of his victims were sleeping homeless women rather than prostitutes.
They had to reinforce the top floor of Milgarth station as the paperwork on the Ripper was so heavy.
@@susangarvey9415 i live in yorkshire and the same city that the yorkshire ripper lived in, i met the first victims son a few years ago
The Yorkshire Ripper ain’t alive anymore. He died an agonising COVID related death. Dennis Nilsson was recently portrayed by David Tennant in the TV series ‘Des’.
Always remember the day my dad was interviewed in the "ripper" case as we lived in sunderland and when the tapes arrived the police interviewed truck drivers who had or been to Leeds with the job. My dad at the time had a beard and dark hair very much like the ripper. It was a very very strange time to be alive and as a kid it was talked about so much!
simular to my old man but he worked in leeds at the time he looked like sutcliffe with a teesside accent(most people would call him a mackem or a geordie who werent from the north east), he got interviewed, even my wife whos into true crime when she saw a pic off my dad first thing she said was why u got a photo off peter sutcliffe
@@asylumgamingcartel6137 my dad was the same but his brother was spitting dabs of Sutcliffe and even now still has the same beard and creeps me out a bit lol. Me and my brother used to sit on the wall next to the command center the police had just so we would be on Tele the next day on the news. Always remember the CID officers name he was called Bull! It was definitely a strange time for sure.
My Dad was interviewed too. He was in Preston in Lancashire though, were there had been a copycat killing initially linked to Sutcliffe. He too had black hair and a beard 😑
I think this is the case where the police had a false confession and waisted years of work following dead-end leads
@@ianprince1698 no they had tapes sent in from "Wearside Jack" so the focus ended up in Sunderland. He was later found and convicted of sending in the tapes.
I love lists like this as I'm a true crime buff, but this list kind of freaked me out as I have shirt tail connections to 3 of them and seeing them on the same list makes me feel kind of unlucky! (Harold Shipman worked for a time at our local hospital and is believed to have victims here, a friend (never a sex worker) went on a couple of dates with Peter Sutcliffe, the Yorkshire Ripper, and a friend's mum was married to a man that ran with the Kray brothers. When I met her she was in her 70s and very petite - 5 foot, if that, and looked like a bit of a breeze could take her out. I didn't know of her former mob connections until I watched her run off a bike gang that was demanding protection money from a club we just happened to be in. She may have left that life decades before, but you did not want to be on the wrong side of her because she could go from sweet lil old dear to having balls of steel and a sprinkling of absolutely unhinged in a blink. It still tickles me remembering it - it was unreal to see.
I was talking to someone online a couple of years back about something & her dad had worked with\for Fred West in the building trade, he went to their house once or twice apparently Free was "nice" but Rose was very rude. He couldn't have know what was in the cellar but was physically sick when the news broke. In the last year they've searched a place where West worked laying a floor as they though there might be more victims.
My grandma knew the Sutcliffe family! My mum used to go round their family house as a child (about 6) and she played with one of the girls that was there. She told me Peter actually seemed nice whenever he was round there and that the girl took her into one of the rooms to show her a wardrobe covered with a black sheet!!Inside was a load of masks and stuff but being young, she was scared of saying anything. Peter once gave her a badge with a black lynx on it and she threw it away once she heard what he did 😳 She later found out that he was actually out killing a woman on her birthday one year. Creepy
Peter Sutcliffe, the Yorkshire Ripper, died in 2020 at the age of 74. Video is out of date.
Indeed... Died of covid after refusing treatment.
Thanks. The thought of that man ever being released made me feel sick. If he refused treatment for Covid he must have known he would never be released from prison.
THANK YOU THE COVID VIRUS.
Jack the Ripper was never identified. There have been many theories and suggestions about who he might have been, but after this long I think we just have to accept that we'll never know for sure. Every now and then people come forward with 'evidence' that 'proves' that someone was Jack, but it all ends up being circumstancial or requires huge assumptions.
I can't help but feel like if he was going to be identified, it would've happened by now.
@@spareumbrella8477 the issue is as so much time has passed and stories told within families have been diluted down the generations we will never 100% know who he was and as horrible as it is I don’t really want to know. His legend horrific as it is, is why he is so revered.
I believe it was George Hutchinson. Hutchinson was Mary Kelly's boyfriend who was an extremely jealous man and used to read her about the killings. They broke up about 2 weeks before her murder. Her door key also disappeared around the same time. There was a witness outside on the night of her murder who saw her go into her rooms with a gentleman. Guess who that witness was?that's right,her exboyfriend George Hutchinson,and her front door was locked when the police turned up
I heard he changed his name to Saville and had a son called Jimmy.
One thing that is certain is that he didn't go around in a cape and top hat like Alice Cooper. The murders took place in 1888, not1828, and anyone looking like that would have been spotted a mile away.
Here's another nurse for you from my local hospital, Stepping Hill, Stockport. A nurse has been convicted of murdering two patients and poisoning 20 others at a Greater Manchester hospital.
Victorino Chua killed Tracey Arden, 44, and Derek Weaver, 83, at Stepping Hill Hospital in Stockport by injecting insulin into saline bags and ampoules.
These were then unwittingly used by other hospital nurses on Chua's victims, who were mostly elderly.
The father of two, 49, who was cleared of a third murder charge, left one patient with a serious brain injury.
My little Irish Aunt was working in a cafe in my hometown of Cheltenham in the early 90's. Fred West was a regular customer and even offered me Aunt a lift home when my uncle was late to pick her up. She rejected the offer as she said he always gave her creeps. Couple of years after, Fred and Rose were arrested.
I'm glad she was creeped out by him. That was a lucky escape.
Crazy how her intuition saved her

Every few years someone publishes a new book claiming to have identified Jack the Ripper, usually claiming he was someone famous. It’s almost always met with loads of publicity then quickly disproven.
The man in red speaks English like someone who has it as a second language. He said ‘the Yorkshire part of Leeds and Bradford’. Which means nothing.
He couldn’t pronounce ‘Thames’ either! 🙈
Where was sir Tony blair?
Copied Stirling Moss
This list seems a little off too me no mention of Mayra Hindly and Ian Brady ( aka the moores murders), or Mary Bell and child who killed a child. But then there are so many veil pepole it must be hard to narrow the list.
My late dad grew up in the same street ad Mary Bell, although at a different time. The whole road has since bern demolished.
@@stevearmstrong9213 Understandable, that kind of history sticks in the mind.
As well as Hindley and Brady, I'm astounded that Jimmy Savile didn't make the list. Also, Joanna Dennehy.
Interesting (or useless) fact for you JT, the Kray twins have also be portrayed by the Kemp Brothers from the band Spandau Ballet, and it was a pretty good film for it's time.
Love the movie!!
very inaccurate too
Still like it more than the overrated Legend.
Yep, prefer it to legend, which was garbage and with a garbage "actor"
I saw a tv interview of people who knew the Kray twins and they all said the media blew out of proportion the things they done except going in a bar and shooting George Cornell
JT, if you want to come to England then I would HIGHLY recommend watching Only Fools and Horses and Faulty Tower's and doing reaction videos as there so many side splitting laughs. English humour at is finest!

Baby farming was a weird time. During the 1800's a law known as the Bastardy clause was enacted which absolved parental responsibility of fathers to their bastard children (In a effort to restore virtue and female morality, eheh) . This did not decrease the instances of illigitimate children as they thought it would. Instead, the mothers were unable to raise their children while working and with the scale of the issue baby farming became popular. Sometimes this would be as in the video - a one off payment, other times it would be weekly payments etc with the 'nanny' looking after many children at a time. Anyhow, it was taken advantage of, many simply starved to death or were neglected in other ways and at it's height there were daily front tabloid spreads of dead babies being left in the street. This caused the law to be reformed and is the bases of many of our child support laws today.
"Reform of the Bastardy Laws paralleled the fight for the protection of infant life, and in 1872 they were amended to make the putative father equally liable for the support of the illegitimate child until the age of 16, and it enabled the poor law boards to aid mothers in obtaining support for their children. This law served as the basis of dealing with the financial management of illegitimate children until 1957"
Fun fact about Jack the Ripper.
Back when he’d murdered maybe 2/3 women, Inspector Abberline of Scotland Yard considered using blood hounds to track jack.
When the newspapers got wind of the plan they ridiculed him and Scotland Yard and he was told not to use the dogs by his commanding officers.
This would’ve been one of the first times dogs would be used in an official investigation and more than likely would’ve led to jacks arrest.
But now we will never know what would’ve happened and who Jack the Ripper actually was for certain.
So the media have always been arseholes and thought they were better
@@mattjwardmusic88 in a word.. yes
Just gonna say the Krays actually weren't that bad. They were gangsters, yeah, but they protected their community and only killed other gangsters
I knew about most of those in this video but am surprised by some inclusions that I hadn't heard of.
Shipman's final tally ( after a public inquiry) was believed to be in excess of 500,more than just about all famous serial killers combined.
As a side note to the Krays , my uncle was quite heavily involved with them in the early to mid Sixties. Now, he was a tough man, but he said they were a couple of seriously nasty men.
@@DTAGAFFA Whether you are taking the pi$$..wrongly..I don't know, but my uncle actually was involved with them and was born in Bethnal Green. He can be seen in a number of photos that have the twins in. If you choose not to believe me, I don't actually care tbh.

This clip missed off Robert Maudsley. The only man Charles Bronson admitted he was intimidated by
The UK has a higher rate of violent crime than the US. UK citizens understand if guns were readily available the murder rate as the result of guns would be absolutely ridiculous, so the UK’s populace backs the heavily restricted system we have now.
After well over 100 years no one will ever know who Jack The Ripper was, people keep claiming to know, but they don't.
I think it was a woman who was jack the ripper
Shipman - they stopped counting mid 250 victims as they could not go back far enough due to the records being destroyed, but it estimated that he killed at least 400+ as all the victims had the same modus operandi on the death certificate and the victims relations. There is a special place in hell for Shipmen..~Trooper
If Jack the Ripper is on the list then why isn't Scottish serial killer Bible John who stalked the Dance halls of the Barralands in Glasgow

Not to downplay the obvious seriousness of any of these monsters but purely to lighten the mood a little bit, I remember many years ago going into a gents' toilet somewhere and there being as sign that read, " Please flush twice....it's a long way to the kitchen. "
By the way, JT, they made a drama out of Harold Shipman's murder spree and he was portrayed by James Bolam who was more famous for appearing as Terry Collier in the British comedies 'The Likely Lads' and 'Whatever Happened To The Likely Lads?' during the 1960's and 1970's. They also made another television drama out of the Wests called ''Appropriate Adult' where Fred West was portrayed by Dominic West ( no relation to either of those monsters ) and Monica Dolan portrayed his wife Rose.
Three other monsters that were omitted from this list were the Moors Murderers, Ian Brady and Myra Hindley, as well as John Christie who was more familiarly known as Reg Christie to his family and friends and who murdered at least 8 women in the 1940's and 1950's. While both Hindley and Brady died in prison Christie was hanged in July 1953 for his crimes.
There was a rhyme for Mary Cotton, can’t remember it all but it started

The commentary was far too flippant. These were horrendous crimes.
You need to stop interrupting so much. Love your videos but the interrupting can be annoying
My dad went to college in Manchester around the time the Yorkshire ripper was about and he got interviewed by the police because there was a body found in the area where my dad lived at the time. He was at the pub the night it happened and the police apparently already knew where he had been before interviewing him and were just ruling him out. Strange to think my dad could have been or was so close to the Yorkshire ripper whilst he was in the act of killing someone
They tried to blame the murders of two swansea women on him too, they were thinking he might have killed further afield, many years later they discovered it was a man whom worked in the top rank nightclub called Joseph Kippen, weirdly he looked simular to Peter Sutcliffe
Fun fact about Harold Shipman - all of his murders over several decades were logged in a single year which obviously made the UK murder rate spike a huge amount as he killed more people than everyone else combined. Sadly this spike coincided with the UK's ban on handguns, so nefarious parties in the USA quote this increase in murder rate and attribute it to the handgun ban, rather than the actual facts. Therefore not only is he responsible for hundreds of deaths directly, the way his figures were used the lie to the American public and argue against gun safety probably killed a few more as well.
I feel like the woman who killed 400 baby’s should av been num 1.
Harold Shipman saved the country a fortune is state pension.
Surprised Joanna Denehey ain't on here or Ian Brady and Myra Hindley either
Surprised Mary Bell wasn't on that list. She only killed two but her first murder was committed when she was 10 years old.

Also *He did not confess, when he got pulled over for having a false number plate.*
I thought that too, the police were suspicious that he might’ve ditched something when he got out of the car so returned to the scene and recovered the knife, hammer and rope the ripper was known to use as murder weapons.
@@punkoid76 Interviewed 10+ times without a confession, yet this narrator thinks he confessed straight away after being caught with a false number plate.
I never watch Top 10 channels anymore, but on the rare occasions I watched this one, the other narrator in this video also annoyed me with his misinformation, shouting, screechy voice and mispronunciations.
There's one from him in this video that immediately comes to mind, which is him pronouncing *Griffiths* as *Griffins.*
@@danielgardecki1046 I agree, just popped up on my homepage for some reason.
Surprised to not see Thompson and Venables on this list.
How the fuck was Saville not on this list?
That snow you got is nothing, I work with clearing snow from parking lots and roads and so on and over christmas, i.e christmas eve, christmas day and the day after that i worked a total of 32 hours, we got almost 50 cm (about 19.6 inches) of snow here over christmas, next year i want what you got, no snow at all for christmas xD
Go on then. I subscribed, after watching for months. It's the right thing to do.

We certainly know how to grow a gruesome criminal over here...but some times they're too close for comfort.
When I was 15 the Yorkshire Ripper was "at large" and I clearly remember cancelling evenings out with friends, especially when it was foggy. One of his kills was less than 2 miles from where I lived
i remember back in 79, a group of us from school were at an out of the way pub, we were all underage. p olice came in, they said dont worry about your age we just want you all to listen to this (the ripper tape) The follwing year I was at Dewsbury court hurling abuse at him as he was marched into custody. then 10yrs later I moved house and my next door neighbour had been the clerk of the court the same time at the magistrates court
@@eyecatcher1509 So the tape you listened to wasn't even real then. Look up John Samuel Humble "Wearside Jack"
@@jkasaunder228 dead right, but at the time it was real enough wasnt it....the funny thing it was played on a portable cassette player haha can u imagine
@@eyecatcher1509 Surprisingly the police in the UK still use cassettes as they are one of the most secure methods of storing data.
Thanks for sharing your experience though. It's a crazy world for sure
Don't know about a crazy world...I know it was a very scary one back then..
Peter Sutcliffe & Stephen Griffiths. Both from my home town of Bradford, West Yorkshire. Funny story about Griffiths - I used to work with a guy who lived in the same block of flats as him and he told me that after passing Griffiths on the stairs, his friend remaked to him that "That guy looks like a serial killer"
But I would just like to point out that Bradford isn't that bad a place.
Our ITV Television network often makes excellent drama serials about real life murder cases, their series about Mary Cotton and the one about Neilson (starring the brilliant former Dr Who, David Tennant) are particularly good.
Harold Shipman was one of my friends doctors when he was a kid. He'd been there family doctor for years 😮😮
Mary Ann Cotton was from the same place (hetton-Le-Hole in County Durham) as my wife, my wife has threatend to murder me shitloads of times over the years, usually when I come home drunk on a Saturday night. Do you think my wife and Mary Ann Cotton are related? 🤔😱
If you can get hold of a copy of the 1990 film The Krays starring Gary & Martin Kemp it is worth a watch
Moors murderers were horrible too
The fact that most if not all Shipman's victims were elderly helped him get away with it for so long.
Because of Shipman protocol in UK health care changed . I work in a Nursing Home and although all of our patients are end of life care , if a patient dies and has not been seen by a doctor in the previous two weeks it's classed as a sudden death and we have to call the police . During the Pandemic it was not easy to get a Doctor visit ( our patients are very elderly and frail with multiple health issues ) . Although we had several deaths none necessitated calling the Police as we had at least the option of a video call .
Similarly, a body can only be taken for cremation if 2 doctors (currently 1 since covid hit) have signed forms called part 4 and part 5 (the latter of which has been dropped for the time being) which involve an inspection of the deceased to rule out anything suspicious.
This too was a change made because of Shipman.
I'm only at number 5 but I doubt the story I'm thinking of will be there as it was only one murder. About 10 mins from is a house where one the most horrific murders was committed by a teenager, he went to school with my bf and will never get out of prison due to him always being a danger to the public, he murdered a sweet old lady called mabel leyshon you should read up about it, it was a very dark murder and is probably one of the most inconceivable crimes ever committed. There was also suspected satanic rituals performed due to a) the way she was discovered and b) the way an alter and other body parts were discovered. Check it out
