Peter Sutcliffe (1946–2020), infamously known as the “Yorkshire Ripper,” was an English serial killer who murdered 13 women and attacked several others across Northern England between 1975 and 1980. Sutcliffe’s crimes sparked one of the largest manhunts in British history, creating widespread fear throughout Yorkshire and surrounding regions before his arrest in 1981. The case remains one of the most infamous serial murder investigations in the United Kingdom.
