Wearside Jack Biography

Wearside Jack is one of the most popular and richest Film who was born on January 8, 1956 in Sunderland District, United Kingdom. Wearside Jack was the name used by John Samuel Humble (8 January 1956 to the 30th of July in 2019) He was an Englishman who posed as The Yorkshire Ripper in the form of a fake audio recording as well as a series of letters over the years 1978-1979.

The prosecution argued that Humble did not call the police to admit the direct blame even when it was evident that his notes and tapes are diverting police resources from the actual Ripper. The defense counsel told court that Humble was attempting to end his life in November 1979 when he jumped off the bridge at 90 feet that crossed the River Wear and on other occasions. Instead of falling to his death, he fell onto an inflatable boat and was later rescued by the police. He spent three months in the hospital due to his injuries, and receiving mental health treatment. The defense claimed that he led for a “inadequate life”, and was motivated by guilt to drink.

A then unknown victim of Sutcliffe at the time of Humble’s first letter was Yvonne Pearson, whose body was undiscovered under a Bradford sofa at the time. This detail raised the suspicion of a Sunderland detective inspector that the Wearside Jack evidence was a hoax (as the writer of the letter made no reference to this crime) and submitted a report to the Northumbria police in September 1979, but was ignored. One coincidence between Harrison’s (then falsely suspected) killer and Wearside Jack was the secretion of their B-group blood cells in their saliva and semen, retrieved from her murder scene and from the gum of one of the letters, a quality shared by only 6% of men. It was this which was taken as definitive proof the Yorkshire Ripper was the same man as had sent the letters and the tape.

Peter Sutcliffe, who committed the murders, was interviewed and released nine times over five years. Four of these occasions followed the police decision to search for the man heard on the tape. Each time he was rejected as a suspect because he did not have a North-East accent. In July 1979, Sutcliffe was interviewed by two Detective Constables who became suspicious. One of the officers, Detective Constable Andrew Laptew, in his report wrote that there was good evidence he was the killer, but the document was downgraded because of Sutcliffe’s Yorkshire accent and the lack of a match with the hoaxer’s handwriting.

In the span of a year , from March 1978 until the end in June 1979 Humble delivered three letters in which he claimed to be Yorkshire’s Ripper. The letters were addressed to Sunderland Two of them were addressed to the Assistant Chief Constable George Oldfield, a member of the West Yorkshire Police who was responsible for the Ripper investigation, and the third addressed to Daily Mirror.

Humble was driven by, according to Gregg after Humble’s conviction by a desire for fame and a resentment of the police, and a fascination with Humble’s involvement with the Jack the Ripper Whitechapel murders in the late 19th century of London. The resentment for the police dates back to 1975, when he was incarcerated for assaulting an off duty police official (for which he spent for three months inside a juvenile offenders’ institution) in addition to the earlier conviction was for theft and burglary in 1973. Humble’s obsession with the Whitechapel murders was a factor in his writing for the hoax letter with some paragraphs were adapted from 18th-century letters written by the previous serial killer.

The tape recording tape concluded with a track of the 1978 single “Thank You for Being a Friend” by Andrew Gold. George Oldfield and other senior officers were informed by FBI that the producer of the tape was an outright hoaxer. It was US experts in the field of profiling Robert Ressler indicated, in his book written with his co-authors, Whoever Fights Monsters, that he had contacted the police to inform them of the incident right away after hearing the tape.

However, before Sutcliffe was arrested, Humble twice phoned the police anonymously to indicate they had been hoaxed because he felt guilty for misleading the investigation, but they were discounted. One call to Sunderland police on 14 September 1979, was 12 days after Barbara Leach was killed, the first of Sutcliffe’s victims to be murdered after Humble’s hoax influenced the police investigation. The call, which was brief, was recorded, but hundreds of hoax calls were received by the police. It also became known that his neighbours had been interviewed by police searching for Wearside Jack, but he had not. Humble was then living a mile from Castletown, where the Yorkshire Ripper was mistakenly thought to be living because of Humble’s tape.

As a result of this cold case review, DNA from envelopes sent by Humble as part of the hoax were matched in the United Kingdom National DNA Database with samples police had obtained from Humble in an unrelated incident in 2001, when he had been arrested and cautioned for being drunk and disorderly. By this time, Humble had become a chronic alcoholic. The DNA match meant that there was one in a billion chance that the culprit responsible for the hoaxes was not Humble.
