Thriller - Part 2: Alison's Story

In the opening episode of this series Thriller arc, we were introduced to two individuals who from the middle of 1982 onwards, carried out an appalling catalogue of sexual assaults in the North London area. The attacks gained in proficiency and frequency, then at least one of the men branched out and began attacking women alone - as well as in tandem with his partner.

And finally, for whatever reason, sexual assault just wasn't enough - a step further was wanted, or needed. So with just two days of 1985 remaining, the line from rapist to killer was crossed by each.

The episode contains details and descriptions of crimes and events, involving crimes of a sexual nature, that some listeners may find disturbing and/or upsetting, so discretion is advised whilst listening.
