The Yorkshire Ripper: Peter Sutcliffe

The Yorkshire Ripper: Peter Sutcliffe

The ICMAP boys are back and straight into the action with a brand new season premiere (or episode 7, for the benefit of those with an appreciation for all things linear). This week, and would you believe it with the previous week’s global announcements of his passing, Tom and Ben make their way through back alleys, dark streets and the red light districts of ‘Ripper Country’ - taking a deep dive into the brutal case of Peter Sutcliffe, better known as The Yorkshire Ripper.

It’s January 2nd, 1981 – the South Yorkshire City of Sheffield slowly comes to a close. Children are put to bed, workers are clocking out, friends, loved ones and even perfect strangers are toasting and cheering to the bright hopes of a New Year and all the potential it has to offer. As last orders are called, they spill out to the streets from within the pubs and clubs and wander off home without a care in the world. This is Sheffield, this is South Yorkshire, they don’t carry the worries of their neighbouring regions, they don’t fear the dreaded Yorkshire Ripper as they wander off into the night... Sergeant Robert Ring is on routine patrol with a colleague. He sees a woman in a car with a man and suspects a sex worker and client encounter. The sex worker tells Sergeant Ring that the man in her car is her boyfriend. Ring thinks he remembers her for prostitution offences. The man in the car says his name is Peter Williams. He adds that he’s desperate for the toilet. Ring allows him to go behind a nearby storage tank. The police meanwhile find the car’s license plates are false. And Peter admits that so is the name he has given. He says he’s really Peter Sutcliffe. He’s detained overnight. Police notice Sutcliffe’s physical similarity to the Ripper Profile. His blood test shows he’s blood group B, one of few the indisputable forensic details and relatively rare in the general population. Later that night, Sergeant Ring returns to the scene of the arrest where he finds that the individual didn’t empty his bladder behind the storage tank, but had instead emptied his pockets of a knife and ball-peen hammer...

So just how did Sutcliffe avoid detection/capture despite being interviewed by police nine times? What were his motivations behind his 5-year rampage? Why did a Polish Gravestone come under scrutiny? How many mistakes did the West Yorkshire Police make? And which system would you play - the ‘one M’ or the ‘three M’?

Tune in, and all will be revealed!

9/11: The September 11th Attacks

9/11: The September 11th Attacks

One of the most request cases to date… the boys explore the case of 9/11: The September 11th Attacks. On the morning of Tuesday, September 11th, 2001, America was brought to its knees. As the fading summer sun rose over New York City and its many millions of residents went about starting their day, 19 hijackers seized control of four passenger planes and systematically crashed them into each of the two most prominent World Trade Center Towers, The Pentagon, and aimed a fourth for either The Capitol Building or The White House before it’s heroic passengers forced a different outcome. Within moments, the iconic Manhattan skyline was engulfed in flames, smoke, and screams - and the world watched on in horror as the towers collapsed in a devastating cascade of destruction. Though America was broken, a nation was united in mourning the many thousands of lives that were tragically taken in the attacks, with many - including those high in power and persuasion - demanding immediate justice... And revenge.

The Anagram Killer: Peter Tobin

The Anagram Killer: Peter Tobin

During a span of almost two decades, Peter Tobin became a human embodiment of horror and hate. With a predatory instinct and pure evil in his nature, Tobin prowled the streets of England and Scotland, preying on the innocent and vulnerable. His crimes, characterised by unspeakable brutality and depravity, paint a chilling portrait of pure horror unleashed upon the country. From his early years steeped in violence and darkness to his calculated and sadistic reign as a serial killer, Tobin's legacy is one of unrelenting horror. His victims, often young women and girls, fell prey to his twisted desires, their lives extinguished in the most gruesome and merciless manner imaginable. As the authorities raced against time to stop his ever changing reign of terror, the true extent of Tobin's depravity was laid bare, leaving a scar on society that has never fully healed.This is a case we didn't expect to cover, but found it fascinating nonetheless.

The Kray Twins: The Case of Ronnie and Reggie Kray

The Kray Twins: The Case of Ronnie and Reggie Kray

Ronnie and Reggie Kray, infamous criminal twin brothers from London's East End, exploded onto the scene in the swinging 1960s - rising to infamy as larger-than-life gangsters and underworld overlords. With a lethal cocktail of charm and extreme violence, the pair carved out their empire through a trail of blood, guts, and broken bones amidst numerous turf wars. Their criminal portfolio ranged from daring armed robberies to chilling contract killings, with multiple instances of arson and extortion, making the twins feared and revered in equal measure across London's seedy streets... But it wasn't just their criminal exploits that captured the public’s imagination; it was their magnetic personalities and glamorous celebrity connections that added an irresistible (and contrasting) allure to their dark and dangerous world. The Krays lived fast, loved hard, and fought dirty, leaving behind a legacy of brutality and mayhem that continues to fascinate and terrify to this very day...Click HERE for more exclusive ICMAP content!www.icmap.co.ukFor HUNDREDS more cases (and to request your own!), visit icmap.co.uk now and sign up for free!Presented by Tom Norris & Ben CarterWritten by Ben CarterProduced by Dan J LambertEdited by Ben Bonsey Hosted on Acast.

The Monster Of Rillington Place: John “Reg” Christie

On the seemingly ordinary streets of mid-century London, with a new queen on the throne and memories of the war fading, Mr John Reginald Christie harboured a dark secret, hidden in plain sight amidst the bustling city life.
