The Yorkshire Ripper killed a further 22 women and one MAN, according to explosive new evidence.

One of the “new” victims was a famous Playboy bunny girl.

Peter Sutcliffe was only ever convicted of 13 murders.

But now a former police officer and an investigative journalist have written a book which insists this figure is just the tip of the iceberg.

The Yorkshire Ripper killed a further 22 women and one MAN, according to explosive new evidence.

One of the “new” victims was a famous Playboy bunny girl.

Peter Sutcliffe was only ever convicted of 13 murders.

But now a former police officer and an investigative journalist have written a book which insists this figure is just the tip of the iceberg.

They claim the cover-up has betrayed the forgotten victims.

The authors said: “Disturbingly, the truth has remained hidden thanks to an extraordinary cover-up which has obscured the incompetence of West Yorkshire Police, who missed repeated chances to bring him to justice - Sutcliffe was interviewed and dismissed as a suspect nine times.

“The force compounded its bungling by resisting attempts of other forces to question Sutcliffe over similar unsolved murders in their areas.

“They even failed to properly reinvestigate cold cases on their own patch.”

Eve Stratford was found dead in the bedroom of her east London flat back in March 1975.

Her hands were tied behind her back with a stocking and a belt and her blue nightie had been ripped open.

At the time the case was front page news in the Daily Mirror. Eve was a ‘bunny girl’ hostess at the famous Park Lane’s Playboy Club and had even posed naked in the magazine Mayfair.
