episode Undressing 'Jack The Stripper' - Part 4 cover

Description

He's the London serial killer you may never have even known existed - from the late 1950's to the mid 1960's, West London was shocked by the deaths of several sex workers, who were found stripped, strangled, and their bodies dumped unceremoniously, like pieces of rubbish. It's widely considered to be the UK's most prolific series of unsolved serial killings, claiming more victims than his similar namesake the previous century, and in a joint 8 part series between myself, and the award nominated Murder Mile podcast, myself and Mike will examine the case in full detail, sifting through misinformation, lies, rumour - and perhaps even downright corruption. The True Crime Enthusiast and Murder Mile have brought you so far the accounts of eight dead women – Elizabeth Figg, Gwyneth Rees, Hannah Tailford, Irene Lockwood, Helen Barthelemy, Mary Fleming, Margaret McGowan and Bridie O'Hara - who were found dead around the river Thames and in residential areas of the surrounding districts over a six year period from 1959 to 1965 – with police considering: Was there another Ripper on the loose? We have heard the full story of the investigation into the murders - were they even all connected? What certainly connected the latter four of these, and the possibility - was the Stripper seen - twice, and in the final part of Undressing - Jack The Stripper, i bring you a series of suspects for the crimes. I stress suspects - for only one person was ever charged with any of the linked killings - as you'll hear. Join myself on The True Crime Enthusiast for parts 1 to 4, and Mike over on Murder Mile for parts A to D, as we are Undressing - 'Jack The Stripper' The episode contains details and descriptions of crimes and events, including descriptions of a sexual nature, that some listeners may find disturbing or distressing, so discretion is advised whilst listening in.  Music used in this episode: "The Descent" by Kevin Macleod.
