#157 - The Blackout Ripper: First Blood - Part One (Mabel Church, Britain)

In the second week of February 1942, six women were attacked on consequecutive days across London's West End; two were violently assaulted and four were brutally tortured and murdered. All were attributed to Gordon Frederick Cummins, who would later be dubbed 'The Blackout Ripper'. But was he a one-off spree-killer, or did this sadistic maniac have two more victims in his past?

  • Location: 225 Hampstead Road, London, England, NW1 (demolished)
  • Victims: 1 attacked (Mabel Church)
  • Culprits: 1 (Gordon Frederick Cummins?)
  • Two possible killings by Britain's least known spree killer
