| Summary: | Yorkshire Ripper: This is 6 Garden Lane, Heaton, Bradford in the UK. A more innocuous sounding address it would be hard to find. But in 1977 it was inhabited by Peter Sutcliffe, a man who would become known by his far more notorious nickname, the Yorkshire Ripper. When Sutcliffe was finally caught and tried for the murders of 13 women and attempted murders of seven more, he had been terrorizing the streets of Yorkshire for five years, from 1975 to 1980. Oklahoma Bombing: The deadliest terrorist attack on us soil prior to September 11 2001 was a home grown affair. At just after 9am on Wednesday, the 19th of April 1995, a 2300-kilogram bomb made up of fertilizer and nitro-methane was detonated next to the Alfred P. Murrah federal building, a government office complex in downtown Oklahoma City. The explosives had been packed into a rented Ryder truck by ex-soldier Timothy McVeigh and his co-conspirator Terry Nichols. |
