??/??/?? - The Ripper's
last murder
Real-Life Crimes
After killing Marguerite Walls in October Peter Sutcliffe
had carried out two savage but non- fatal attacks —
on a 34-year-old doctor in Headingley and on a 16-year-old
girl in Huddersfield.
His fourth attack in a month was on Leeds student Jacqueline
Hill. The Ripper stalked his victim as she got off a
bus near the university hall of residence where she
lived. He struck as she was within 100 yards of safety,
dragging her to some waste ground where he carried out
his by now ritual mutilations.
Jacqueline's bag was found later that evening and reported
to the police, but her body was not discovered until
the next day. She was to be the last victim of Peter
Sutcliffe's murderous attacks.
