The Hunt for the Yorkshire Ripper: How Police Missed Peter Sutcliffe

For five years, Peter Sutcliffe—better known as the Yorkshire Ripper—terrorized the UK, leaving behind a trail of brutal murders and a nation living in fear. But Sutcliffe’s story didn’t begin with his first victim. His childhood was shaped by violence and humiliation, setting the stage for a man whose crimes would haunt Britain for decades. From his disturbing fascination with death to the devastating police missteps, including a hoax that derailed the investigation, this episode unravels the complex and horrifying story of Peter Sutcliffe. With 13 confirmed murders and a police investigation so massive it required reinforced floors, this case is as much about failure as it is about justice.
