Birth(+)Fact(x)Death(-) Calendar

A policeman discovered Sutcliffe hunched behind a private hedge with a hammer. He claimed that a hubcap had flown off his front wheel and that he had been looking for it. The hammer was to help secure it back into place. In October of 1969, he was fined £25 but his real reason for being out, to attack a prostitute, was not revealed.
