  1. The Forgotten Victims | Part 01

    EPISODE 1

    The Forgotten Victims | Part 01

    Laura Richards analyses and deconstructs the murders and attacks on lone women committed by Peter Sutcliffe (known as PS throughout the series) in the north east of England in the 1960s and 1970s.   This case happened before Laura started her career at New Scotland Yard. It was the very reason her unit was set up. Listen and find out why Laura believes this is one of the most misunderstood cases of our time and why we should stop referring to this serial killer as The Yorkshire R*****   Join Laura each week in the intelligence cell as she behaviourally breaks down each attack and highlights which cases she believes to be linked, why PS did what he did and how he was allowed to get away with it for so long. You won't want to miss this.   #HerNameWasWilmaMcCann #HerNameWasEmilyJackson #HerNameWasIreneRichardson #HerNameWasDebraSchlesinger #HerNameWasPatriciaAtkinson #HerNameWasJayneMcDonald #HerNameWasJeanJordan #HerNameWasYvonnePearson #HerNameWasHelenRytka #HerNameWasVeraMillward #HerNameWasJosephineWhittaker #HerNameWasBarbara Leach #HerNameWasMargeruiteWalls #HerNameWasJacquelineHill   #HerNameISAnnaRogulskyj #HerNameISOliveSmelt #HerNameISTraceyBrown #HerNameISMarcellaClaxton #HerNameISMaureenLong #HerNameISMarilynMoore #HerNamerISAnnRooney #HerNameISDrUpadyaBandara #HerNameISMoLea #HerNameISTheresaSykes   Sourced Clips https://twitter.com/i/status/1327217063010721794   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3kMhnKX9xmI   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zuxVdf46sJk Learn more about your ad choices.
