It was too similar, the area, and what happened to the other woman. Hope for the parents sake that there is some closure if he's convicted. |  | |  |

I suspect he's murdered a few more too. Vicky Hall was killed in 1999 and the Ipswich murders were in 2006. I wouldn't be surprised if there was more in between those dates. |  |

I remember one in circa 1983???? I remember it because murder wasn't an every day thing back then. Was it a Kathy something from Chantry? That sounds a bit blasé but it wasn't meant to be. |  |

Sounds like you mean Karen Hales who lived in Lavenham Road? It was around '93. Pretty sure it was given top Crimewatch billing. |  |

I lived on Lavenham Road at the time of this, was about 10/11 I think. remember police cars and fire engines flying up the road that evening. My dad had just got back from walking the dog, and the next day his mate told him he’d been over there dog walking too, and saw a man running across the park prior to the sirens ringing out… the bloke went to the police 3 times to tell them that, and told them the direction he ran in (by the pond) and they never got back to him. Or searched the pond for a weapon. Obviously deemed unimportant I guess. |  |

It was a real shocker at the time as murders were pretty rare round here back then. Ipswich was featured on Crimewatch not long before that as well. My vague recollection was that it was the manager of the Tesco at Copdock being issued with a ransom while his family were taken hostage. The Jason Mitchell business in Bramford (where I lived at the time) was in '94. [Post edited 24 Sep 2024 11:47]

Vaguely remember the Bramford one actually! But back to SW, of all the crime programs I’ve watched it’s certainly not beyond the realms of possibility that the prostitute murders weren’t the first time he carried out such an act |  |

Wasn't he linked to a woman who went missing from Brixton and who's body was found in a Suffolk field? |  |

There were some murders in Norfolk when he ran a pub in middle of Norwich's red light district, and he's been linked to plenty more - how much of that is true we'll sadly never know for sure |  |

I think he was even linked to the Suzy Lamplugh murder? He worked on a cruise ship at the same time as her. But i think the police have investigated that and consider it unlikely. |  |

I reckon the Ringlands murder on edge of Norwich must have been looked at. He was a pub landlord in the city at that time. A pub in the middle of the red light district. |  |

Steve Wright to face trial over Vicky Hall murder on 13:32 - Sep 24 with 2995 views | babyblue | Karen Hales didn't have much similarities to Wright's victims and the police had/have suspicions on who committed it but just a lack of evidence to take it much further. One not commented on is the disappearance of Amanda Duncan in 1993. A sex worker similar to those that Wright targeted during his spree, sadly Amanda's body has never been found. Whilst a little earlier than everything, all the similarities. As others have said, would be very surprising if there are not others but just hoping that finally, there will be some closure for Vicky's parents |  | |  |

I was trying to think of her name earlier. Seem to recall she lived out Woodbridge/Melton way? |  |

Don't forget there already was a trial for Vicky Halls murder that the police presented with the mud in the Porsche forensic evidence Maybe they'll call Bradshaw back as a witness as the original case hinged on him being in the exact same spot at the exact same time as Vicky disappeared. |  | |  |

Unfortunately for the families of the victims, in cases like this he gets linked to all unsolved murders whether there's any evidence for it or not. And it often does more harm than good to speculate wildly about such things |  | |  |
Steve Wright to face trial over Vicky Hall murder on 19:48 - Sep 24 with 2332 views | Bluespeed225 | The bloke was a temp’ at our place in about 04’. Fcukin’ scary thought that he looks to have already been involved with several unsolved murders at that time. Scary Iger still that he was so normal as to be anonymous. |  | |  |
