That was the Simpsons version of Jack the Ripper who we will be talking about further
down on this list.
Hey guys welcome back to most amazing top 5 im Court McGinley.
Lets jump right into our list of the Top 5 Evil People Who Were Never Caught
Starting of at our number 5 spot--Frank John and Clarence- If you’re familiar with stories
from Alcatraz prison then these names probably ring a bell.
Frank Morris- John Anglin- and Clarence Anglin were prisoners at San Fransiscos Alcatraz
Maximum Security prison.
This prison was home to some of the most dangerous criminals- and it was said to be impossible
to escape.
Well believe it or not these men managed to break free.
Morris along with the Anglin brothers plotted their daring escape for years before they
actually carried out their plan on June 11th 1962.
They crawled through air vents to reach the prisons roof and then they shimmied down a
large smoke stack- then once they were on the ground they ran to the shore line and
never looked back.
What happened to the men beyond this point is a mystery.
The guards of the prison like to say that the men drowned in the swirling currents of
the San Fransisco Bay before they were able to reach freedom.
A manhunt was sent into place but the bodies were never found.
On Top of that FBI investigations did conclude that even though the water was cold and the
currents were strong it was theoretically possible for one or more of the inmates to
make it to land.
Since the escape family members of the inmates have claimed to have received phone calls
and Christmas cards from these men on the run.
Very much implying that they are alive.
In 2018 the FBI confirmed that the existence of a letter allegedly written by escapee John
Anglin had forced them to re-open the investigation into the case.
The letter was received by the San Francisco Police Department in 2013.
The start of the letter says my name is John Anglin.
I escaped from Alcatraz in June 1962 with my brother Clarence and Frank Morris.
Im 83 years old and in bad shape.
I have cancer.
Yes we all made it that night but barely.
The letter goes on to say how Frank died in 2008 and Clarence died 3 years later in 2011.
In at number 4--The Honolulu Strangler- The Honolulu Strangler- who is also known as the
Honolulu Rapist was Hawaiis first known serial killer.
He killed 5 women between 1985 and 1986.
To this day the killer has not been identified.
As the killings went on the police established a 27 person taskforce with help from the FBI.
There was one person in particular who police believed was responsible for this act but
with no witnesses willing to come forward the police were forced to let him go.
At number 3--The Doodler- The Doodler is an unidentified serial Killer believed to be
responsible for 14 murders and 3 assaults between January 1974 to September 1975.
His attacks took place in San Francisco and his victims were always men in the gay community.
He would meet his victims at nightclubs or in other gay friendly hotspots in the city.
Three of his victims survived.
But since helping the investigation would out them to the public they chose not to testify
against a suspect in court.
But they did give a detailed description of the killer to the police- and this is the
composite sketch they came up with.
This killers name- the doodler- was given to him because he had a habit of sketching
his victims prior to killing them.
Something that also linked the killings was his consistent method he used where he would
stab the victims in the front and the back of their bodies.
Even though so many years have passed this case is currently still open and ongoing in
the San Francisco Police Department.
In at number 2-- Jack the ripper- Over a century ago London’s most notorious serial killer
roamed the East end.
His main prey were prostitutes and he killed at least 5 women that we know of.
This neighbourhood set into panic as these bodies were found within a 3 month period
of each other in 1888 all with in a mile of each other.
News papers listed these killings as barbaric and too horrible to even describe.
But basically- All of the victims had their throats slashed- and most of them had their
stomachs slit and organs ripped out before the body was dumped on the street.
His motive is still unknown.
The FBI took a special interest in the case in 1988 at the request of a movie production
company.
Even with everyone in law enforcement looking into this case the police were never able
to put a face to the killer.
The FBI noted that had we had the current technologies we have today back then- then
it would’ve been possible to catch this person.
One really key fact about this killer is the notes he left behind.
The National Archives obtained letters exchanged between different law enforcement bosses in
1888 when all of these murders first happened.
The killer sent these letters to the London Metropolitan Police Service to taunt them-
and suggested that more murders were coming.
Over the years many people have speculated the identity of Jack the ripper- but no one
was ever prosecuted.
So it looks like he took the secret to his grave.
This makes him one of Englands most famous unsolved mysteries- and one of the worlds
most infamous criminals.
There was only one person to ever come close to naming the cuprite and that was author
Russell Edwards- who in 2014 claimed he could prove the identity of jack the ripper based
on DNA from a shawl that belonged to one of the female victims.
The DNA points to Aaron Kosminkski who was a polish immigrant- and actually one of the
prime suspects of the gruesome murders- but again to this day nothing has ben verified.
At number 1 -- The Zodiac killer- The Zodiac killer had a total of 5 confirmed murders.
But its expected that he killed an additional 20-28 people- and wounded 2 others.
All of these murders took place in the San Fransisco Bay area between the late 1960s
and early 1970s.
This killers identity is still unknown to this day.
All of these killings- and yet no one has been charged for them.
Once the murders began the killer started to taunt the police- and the local paper-the
San Fransisco chronical by sending them a total of 4 letters.
They all contained these encrypted messages which were pretty much impossible to crack.
Out of all of these messages only one has ever been deciphered.
And while these letters were taunting they did contain a number of leads.
In fact for a while a man named Arthur lee Alan was the name on the top of the suspect
list.
However handwriting experts were unable to match his handwriting to the sypher or various
letters.
Over the years people have come forward claiming to know the killers true identity but so far
nothing has been proven through the court.
So this man just got away with these killings and then disappeared into the night.
