      They reportedly interviewed MANY people dozens of times, not just Sutcliffe.
      Our family even suspected someone of being the ripper (though it certainly wasn't him) - perhaps he was just one of them??

Not knowing who it was and the police never seemed to get anywhere, obviously we know why now, they were barking up the wrong tree all along.

    17:42 A whole *life* tariff. The tariff is the amount of time someone on an indeterminate sentence (so usually life) has to wait before they have the chance to ask the parole board to release them from prison, to spend the rest of their days under intense supervision in the community. The parole board are not obliged to release those who apply if they don't think it's appropriate, and any that are released and go on to commit further offences can be returned to prison for the remainder of their lives.
