THE MURDERS OF JACK THE STRIPPER 1974–1965

THE MURDERS OF JACK THE STRIPPER 1964-1965

He walked the streets of London and killed prostitutes. No, he is not the famous Jack the Ripper, but probably an emule of him: he was nicknamed Jack the Stripper.

Jack the Stripper is the nickname of a serial killer responsible for the so-called "naked murders" which took place in London in the years 1964 and 1965.

The bizarre nickname was clearly given for the methodology very similar to the serial killer that had shocked London in 1888. This killer also attacked street prostitutes, killing between 6 and 8 and of which naked corpses were found around London or in the Thames. The number of victims is not precise, because two of the murders do not correspond to his modus operandi.

The confirmed victims were:

1. Hannah Tailford, 30, was found dead on February 2, 1964 at Hammersmith Bridge. She was strangled and when she was found she was missing several teeth. She except for her stockings, she was completely undressed.

2. Irene Lockwood, 26, was found dead on April 8, 1964 on the bank of the Thames, not far from where Hannah Tailford was found. Kenneth Archibald, a 57-year-old guardian, confessed to this murder nearly three weeks later, but his confession was deemed unreliable due to a discrepancy in his version of events and the finding of the victim.

3. Helen Barthelemy, 22, was found dead on April 24, 1964 in an underpass in Brentford. On the woman's body, fragments of dry paint used in the automotive industry were found. Investigators assumed that the fragments were a clue to the killer's workplace and began researching nearby factories.

4. Mary Flemming, 30, her body was found on July 14, 1964 on a sidewalk in the borough of Chiswick. Fragments of paint were discovered on her body again.

5. Frances Brown, a 21-year-old Edinburgh prostitute, was last seen alive on October 23, 1964 by her friend Kim Taylor, also a prostitute, before she was found dead on November 25. in Kensington. Taylor gave the police a description of a Ford Zephyro, the car she'd given Brown a ride that evening.

6. Bridget O'Hara, 28, of Irish descent, also known as "Bridie", was found dead behind the Heron Trading Estate in a storage shed. Again traces of paint were found.

Alleged victims

1. Elizabeth Figg, 21, was found dead on June 17, 1959, five years before her in Chiswick near the Thames. The circumstances of her death had many similarities to those of the other victims, including the position of her body and death by strangulation.

2. Gwynneth Rees, 22, was found dead in a garbage heap on November 8, 1963. Investigators assumed that Rees may have been a victim of Jack the stripper, as her body was found on the banks of the Thames, strangled. with a rope and without some teeth.

John Du Rose, the investigator in charge of the case from Scotland Yard, interrogated nearly 7,000 suspects. In a press conference he made false statements in an attempt to put pressure on the killer and force him into error: he said that the police had restricted the group of suspects to 3 people. The Stripper did not fall into the trap, but after the conference he did not kill again.

According to some writers of the time, the victims were united, in addition to their work, by the fact that they participated in orgies and pornographic films

They hypothesized that the victims knew each other and that they knew the killer: the killer could be linked to the world of pornography and, fearing being recognized, he would have killed all the witnesses that could lead to him.

Detective Du Rose's most likely suspect was a Scottish-born guardian, Mungo Ireland, who was apparently identified by an elderly lady shortly after the murder of Bridget O'Hara. The paint chips came from the firm where he worked as a gatekeeper, the Heron Trading Estate.

In 1970, Ireland went out of his way to unload his car, leaving a letter to his wife, in which he stated:

\ U0026lt; \ u0026lt; I can no longer bear it ... To help you and for the police who are looking for me, I will be in the garage. >>

The police verified that Ireland, at the time of the O'Hara murder, was in Scotland, so he could not be the Stripper.

In the book Jack of Jumps, writer David Seabrook claimed that Brian Cushway, a former cop, was also a prime suspect, but no definitive evidence was ever found that framed him.

Jimmy Evans and Martin Short in their book "The Survivor" instead claim that the killer was Tommy Butler, of the Metropolitan Police mobile squad.

In short, as for Jack the Ripper, even this killer got away with it and to date we don't have the faintest idea who he was. He is probably still alive, maybe he is a lively old man who, there, in a dark London alley, is waiting to be able to resume his hunt for prostitutes.was

The capture of brave Russian officer Rosinski

The capture of brave Russian officer Rosinski This is a shocking image and I apologize in advance for sharing it, but here’s one that truly got to me… in Belarus, 1918, after WWI had already ended, the brave Russian officer Rosinski was captured by the Bolsheviks. The Bolsheviks tortured the captain, likely to get information out of the man, which he bravely refused to give. After that, they simply continued with the torture out of some sick sense of innate cruelty. He was ‘the enemy’ and he was at their mercy, so they brutally murdered their captive. The brave captain was emasculated. And anally impaled on a tree branch. All this while still alive. Alfred Savoir, the man who published the picture and was an eye witness to the death of the brave military officer, described "M. B.", who ordered this atrocity, thus: I knew him not long ago; he was a charming teenager with an ironic wit and joker. He was rubbed with French culture, he admired the novels of Barres and he quot...

CLIFFORD HOYT: THE MAN WHO HAS SEEN HELL

CLIFFORD HOYT: THE MAN WHO HAS SEEN HELL I immediately make a premise. Many Paranormal groups report news similar to the one I am about to publish, about a certain Harry Hoyt, aged 31, who died in 1999 a few days after having an accident from which he woke up saying he saw Hell (and they put a scene from the movie “Hellraiser 2” as a photo). Well, what I found in my research is very different, although the common thread is the same. So it's up to you to decide which version is the right one (assuming one of the two is true). Let's go to the facts. The protagonist is Clifford Hoyt (not Harry: Harry Hyot is an American filmmaker to me), 31 who suffered serious injuries in a car accident due to icy asphalt in 1999, on his way home after a long day at work in Maryland. . He remained in a coma for a few hours and when he regained consciousness, he revealed to the nurse that he was looking after him that he had been sucked into a vortex that led him straight to Hell. He told of the p...

After Hiroshima and Nagasaki: Tragedy and Humiliation.

After Hiroshima and Nagasaki: Tragedy and Humiliation. U.S. and Australian brutalisation of women on the Japanese mainland. (Excerpt From Pages 66-69) All references are provided in the book itself. “There was a far darker side to the U.S. and allied occupation of Japan, one which is little mentioned in the vast majority of histories – American or otherwise. When Japan surrendered in August 1945, mass rapes by occupying forces were expected… [despite setting up of a comfort women which recruited or otherwise trafficked desperate women to brothels] such crimes were still common and several of them were extremely brutal and resulted in the deaths of the victims. Political science professor Eiji Takemae wrote regard- ing the conduct of American soldiers occupying Japan: ‘U.S. troops comported themselves like conquerors, especially in the early weeks and months of occupation. Misbehavior ranged from black-marketeering, petty theft, reckless driving and disorderly con...

During World War II, millions of people were sent to concentration camps, including women.

During World War II, millions of people were sent to concentration camps, including women. Women in concentration camps were subjected to brutal treatment and often faced more severe conditions than their male counterparts. The conditions in the camps were inhumane, and women were often subjected to forced labor, starvation, and medical experiments. Women were treated differently in concentration camps than men. They were often separated from their families, forced to perform hard labor, and subjected to sexual abuse. Women who were pregnant were also subjected to harsh conditions and medical experimentation. Many women were killed, either as part of the genocide or because they were deemed too weak to continue working. One of the most notorious concentration camps where women were held was Auschwitz-Birkenau. There, women were subjected to forced labor, starvation, and medical experimentation. Many were killed in gas chambers or through other forms of execution. The camp was designe...

Frank Discussion Of Rape And Other Atrocities Committed During War.

WARNING! PHOTO BELOW ARE NOT MET FOR THE WEAK HEART. Please note: The following subject matter is of immense importance, but could be difficult to read. There is a Frank Discussion Of Rape And Other Atrocities Committed During War. After entering a large museum in one of the world’s most ancient cities and the former capital of the Chinese empire, Nanking—or Nanjing as it’s known today—my 18-year-old daughter Sophia and I walked over a glass walkway that allowed us to look down 10 feet of earth and observe an ancient footpath. Lights highlighted the ground under the glass while the room we were in was dark. To our right hung numerous photographs on a black wall showing Japanese soldiers slaughtering Chinese citizens in December 1937 revealed by individual lights, the types one sees on art museum paintings. Dead babies, severed heads, piles of bodies on Yangtze River banks, and helpless prisoners of war were all documented there by photographs taken by the perpetrators themselve...

"Wooden Horse or Spanish Donkey"

"Wooden Horse or Spanish Donkey" The wooden horse, or Spanish donkey, was an extremely painful and gruesome medieval torture device. It was first used by the Holy Inquisition in France and then in Spain and Germany, and then migrated to the Americas, gaining prominence during the colonial period. The main design was the same wherever it was used. It was a triangular wooden box with a very sharp top end (ie where the horse's spine would be). The apparatus was constructed of wood, with planks nailed together to form a long, tapered ridge, which would serve as the horse's back. These were supported by four legs attached to a bracket, about 6 or 7 feet (1.8 to 2.1 metres) high, with wheels fitted to the bottom of the legs so that the entire device could roll across the ground. A head and tail would be attached to make the torture device look like an almost “fun” huge wooden horse. The defendant would be mounted on the horse, with ankle weights...

The Grabenpanzer

The Grabenpanzer The Grabenpanzer, or Sappenpanzer (trench armor), also called lobster armor, was a German-made steel fist used as personal body armor during the “Great War.” The Grabenpanzer consists of four pieces of articulated steel: a large chest plate and three other plates that cover the user's abdomen and groin. The different plates were connected with canvas straps. Each plate also had a thick felt block inside to silence the sound of steel plates hitting. The armor divided into separate parts allowed the user to be more flexible. The Grabenpanzer weighed between 9 and 11 kg depending on the model and was generally combined with a thick steel front plate for the user’s Stahlhelm (helmet), which added even more weight to the soldier. For this very reason, the Grabenpanzer was not produced for assault troops, but for machine gun teams and soldiers in sentimental service, operating in static positions, where they were highly exposed and unprotected against an enemy rifleman. ...

Masha Bruskina.

Masha Bruskina. Masha Bruskina was a Russian teenage female partisan. She was a 17 year old Jewish high school graduate and was the first teenage girl to be publicly hanged by the Nazis in Belorussia (Belarus), since the German invasion of Soviet Union on the 22nd of June 1941. Her execution and that of the two men hanged with her took place on the 26th of October 1941 in the city of Minsk. In the photos of her, you will see that she has blond hair, but her natural colour was dark. She dyed her hair when she started to work for the underground. Witnesses to her hanging, testified that Masha struggled hard and lost control of her bladder and bowels. After hanging for three days, she and the men were taken down and only when her body was traditionally washed before her burial by local people and members of her family, did her dark hair show up. She worked as a nurse in a military hospital and was a member of an underground cell which...

Rubin Stacey, lynched victim, hanging from a tree

Rubin Stacey, lynched victim, hanging from a tree, surrounded by onlookers, including girls, Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Rubin Stacy, 37 was a homeless tenant farmer who knocked on a white woman's door (Marion Jones) – she screamed, and he was arrested. As he was being led to jail by six deputies, a mob of about 100 overpowered them – ran their car off the road, and lynched him in sight of Marion's house, in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Marion claimed she offered him a drink of water, but he tried to assault her with a knife, which she later recanted. A photo of the lynching was sent to President F.D. Roosevelt to persuade him to support the Costigan-Wagner Act which would bring federal prosecution to any law enforcement officers who failed to exercise their responsibilities during a lynching incident. - Roosevelt refused to support the bill claiming he would lose Southern votes in the next election.
