the prostitute killing serial killers?

The Times Online wrote:
Prostitutes were tonight warned to stay off the streets of Ipswich as police continued to hunt the killer of three sex workers and said they were concerned about two others who are missing.

The discovery of a third body was made yesterday less than ten miles from where the bodies of Gemma Adams, 25 and Tania Nicol, 19, were found last week. All three women worked as prostitutes in the town’s red-light district.

Today the police announced that a fifth prostitute had been reported missing by her family. Annette Nicholls, 29, was last seen about a week ago on either December 3 or 4.


Another wanna-be Jack-the-Ripper? Seems like every time I read about a string of killings in England, the victims are prostitutes. Is there something about the prostitutes in England that makes you Brits snap?







Maybe the killer just refuses to wear a condom and is quicker with his knife than the prostitutes are?

It's not just a British phenomenon. If you ever read anything about the Green River Killer or any number of other American serial killers, you'll find they often went after prostitutes.

I suspect it's because prostitutes are easy to lure to a secluded place, and unlikely to have anyone who is going to miss them, making them the perfect target.

And because they're an abomination in the eyes of the Lord and they shall be smitten down by righteous vengeance as shall come unto pass to all who defile the very word of. . .

Yeah that too

Maybe they were charging more than $1.20 and upset the killer in question over the outrageous price?

I know. I have degrees in Criminal Justice and Behavioral Science/Psychology. I have studied a lot of serial killers in the past. I just wanted to make a Jack-the-Ripper reference. Plus I need to make an average of 5.5 posts a day to reach 1k before the end of the year. Smiley: grin

The three murdered prostitutes have been named as "Snap", "Crackle" and "Pop"

This may be the work of a cereal killer!

Thank you. I'll be here all week. Try the veal.

Update: Following police concerns about 2 other missing girls, 2 more bodies have been found

OK I didn't get enough sleep last night. I misread that as "2 more bodhis have been found." Scared me for a minute there.

Two more found.

I seem to remember that there were 8 different cereals in the Kellogs variety pack. You reckon that he's aiming for a full set?

Glad to see you Brits take care of your serial prostitute killers.

A fair comment from a country where gun crime is unknown and serial killers unheard of!

Just be careful when you're working your corner.

How very rude of you Bloodwolfex. That was undeserved.

Not that I want to get all political about this story, but...

I will.

This cereal killer would never had been so prolific had prostitution been legal and regulated. The only reason why it is taking so long to solve the case, and why the killer can get away with it, is because these girls are alone on dark street corners and are afraid to talk to the police.

This is a crazy situation. Prostitution exists in every single country in the world, and has existed for as long as mankind has.

Making prostistution legal, having those girls work in brothels instead of street corners, having them health-checked and registered, all of this would make it much harder for psychos to commit these acts.

It's disgraceful, counter-productive and hypocritical to keep prostitution illegal.

If anything good can come out of this horrible story, apart from cereal jokes, it has to be make prostitution legal.

I think it's that the implication that there might be straight men in England enrages most sons of St George.
