#188 - The Bearded Man - Part Two (Paddington, London, UK)

This is Part Two of Two of The Bearded Man.


At 12:45am on Saturday 14th January 1956, Ruby a local sex-worker was dropped off at this spot by her husband and pimp called Ernest. In his own words, “it was the last time I saw her alive”, as when he returned to their flat at 32 Westbourne Terrace, Ruby had been hatchetted to death in their bed.


As the police’s prime suspect, Ernest would lay the blame for her murder on a mysterious man he had neither seen, met and had only heard about from his dead wife in passing. Unable to provide a single shred of evidence that this suspect even existed, his only description was that he was ‘a bearded man’. But was this the truth, a lie, or a shaky alibi?

  • Date: Saturday 14th January 1956 at 12:45am (last seen alive)
  • Location: Flat 7, 32 Westbourne Terrace. Paddington, London, W2
  • Victims: 1 (Rosina Bolton/Pattinson, known as Ruby)
  • Culprits: 1 (Leonard Vincent Atter? Ernest Bolton?)
