Mirroring Jack The Ripper, Sutcliffe’s victims were all women, and many of them were found in ‘Red Light District’ areas. He was sentenced to 20 consecutive life sentences in prison, and died in 2020. With a total of 22 kills, Peter Sutcliffe is the UK’s 2nd most prolific serial killer and is also known most commonly as the Yorkshire Ripper. The majority of his victims were older, widowed women. Once the death certificate was signed, Shipman would edit the victims medical records to make it look like they had been unwell leading up to their ‘untimely’ deaths. He was based in Manchester, and would administer lethal doses of diamorphine to his victims. He was a GP who killed a total of 218 people from 1975 – 1998 – causing a huge scandal amongst the medical community and the general public. The worst UK serial killer is widely agreed to be Harold Shipman. However, the killers that have targeted the UK public have been particularly gruesome. Compared to other countries, the UK has not had an abundance of serial killers.
