April 1986, the body of a 15-year-old girl has been found in woods.docxrossskuddershamus
April 1986, the body of a 15-year-old girl has been found in woods near a railway line in Surrey. She has been raped and strangled. The murder has startling similarities to another, of a young woman four months earlier near a railway line in northeast London.
At its initial stages I don't think anyone envisioned just how big it was going to be. It was only as the investigation progressed over the last two, two and one half years that the magnitude of it all unfolded.
The police were on the killer's trail, but it would take a new investigative technique to help unlock the case. Criminal profiling, a technique that would later prove controversial in the famous unsolved murder of Rachel Nickell.
In February 2001, the last piece of a jigsaw, that had tormented police for nearly 20 years, finally fell into place. David Mulcahy was found guilty at the Old Bailey of 15 counts, three of murder, the rest of rape and conspiracy to rape. He was convicted largely because of the evidence of one man, his former friend and accomplice in the rapes and murders, John Duffy. That's how the story ended.
But it began 20 years before, in 1982, with the rape of a young woman near Hampstead Heath. The victim described being attacked and raped by two men with knives. Over the next four years there were to be more such rapes.
Here is one of the gaps that was used to take the victims up onto the heath. Once onto the heath, they were then taken-- and one in particular-- something like one quarter of one mile over into the heath, through the woodland into a park, where only the attackers would have known that park was. It wasn't spontaneous onto any piece of [INAUDIBLE] ground. They had reconnoitered the area well and truly. They knew the area, and it was planned, in short, like a military operation.
All the rapes had a pattern. And to catch the rapists the police would turn to what, in Britain, was a relatively new investigative technique, criminal profiling. It was the FBI that really put criminal profiling on the map. In the 1970s, at their new Academy in Quantico, Virginia, the FBI began to use psychology to help solve crime and catch criminals. One of its pioneers was Robert Ressler.
Criminal profiling is creating a behavioral composite of a person who has committed a crime, where that person is not known. It give the age, a race, a sex, and various demographics about that individual that would portray him psychologically in such a way that it would aid the investigators in identifying a logical suspect.
Criminal profiling is the application of psychological or behavioral expertise to understand, investigate, and interrupt violent or violence-prone individuals. In the United States we use a couple of different terms for it. We call it criminal profiling, we also call it criminal investigative analysis, or crime-specific consultation. Profiling is the most common term that we use, though.
Profiling begins with information gathering. Information from the crim.

From the Case File A Mutilation Murder
The Crime
The New York City Police Department requested the assistance of the FBI after police detectives came to an apparent dead end in their investigation of the murder and mutilation of a twenty-six-year-old woman whose body was found on the roof of a Bronx public housing apartment building where she had lived with her parents. An investigative task force of twenty-six detectives and supervisors had interviewed more than 2,000 individuals, many of whom lived or worked in the apartment building. Record checks of known sex offenders in the area were of no assistance. The police had twenty-two “good” suspects but nothing conclusive.
A fifteen-year-old boy had discovered the victim’s wallet in the stairwell as he was leaving the building on his way to school. Upon returning home from school for lunch that afternoon, the boy had given the wallet to his father, who went to the victim’s apartment to return it. The victim’s mother then called the day care center where the victim worked to notify her daughter that her wallet had been found. At that time the victim’s mother was told her daughter had not shown up for work that morning. The mother, the victim’s sister, and a neighbor then proceeded to search the building and discovered the body. The body was located at 3:00 p.m.; the victim had left her apartment at approximately 6:15 a.m.
The victim was found nude. She had been beaten about the face and strangled with the strap of her purse. The cause of death was determined to be strangulation—first manual and then ligature. The victim’s jaw and nose had been broken, and several of her teeth were loose. She had sustained several other facial fractures. Her nipples had been cut off after death and placed on her chest. There were bite marks, which were determined to have occurred after death, on her thighs. Numerous contusions and lacerations were present on her body. “You can’t stop me” was written in ink on the inside of her thigh, and “Fuck you” was written on her abdomen. A necklace pendant she usually wore was missing and presumed taken by the killer. Her underpants had been placed on her head and pulled over her face. Her nylons had been removed and loosely tied around her wrists and ankles. Her earrings had been removed and placed symmetrically on each side of her head. An umbrella and writing pen had been forced into her vagina, and a hair comb had been placed in her pubic hair. Semen was recovered from the victim’s body; it appeared that the killer had stood over the victim and masturbated. Human feces were discovered on the roof landing and were covered with the victim’s clothing.
Key Crime Scene Characteristics
The crime did not appear to be planned. All the instruments used to perpetrate the crime were the victim’s (e.g., purse strap, umbrella, pen) except for the knife used to remove the victim’s nipples. This knife was probably small enough to have been routinely carried by the killer. He probab ...
ETHICS08 - Sarah's Law and the Implications of Technology Legislation
Gangs, politics and policing
1. CARYN DOLLEY
IN AN unprecedented move the
province’s top gang-buster, Major-
General Jeremy Vearey, has gone
public about a series of smear cam-
paigns against him, pointing a
finger at some of the province’s
most feared gang leaders as well as
politicians, notably Community
Safety MEC Dan Plato.
Vearey, who is provincial police
deputy commissioner for detectives,
told Weekend Argus yesterday since
he’d played a key role in having gang
boss Rashied Staggie arrested and
convicted for rape, he’d faced death
threats from gang kingpins and
smear campaigns aimed at denting
his reputation.
Vearey warned his “investiga-
tions are bringing us increasingly
close to politicians and I will go
there”.
He said the situation had intensi-
fied recently after detectives arrested
people accused of selling arms to
gangsters and began a probe into cor-
rupt crime intelligence officers.
Vearey spoke out yesterday after
several sets of documents were
leaked to media, including Weekend
Argus.
Sensationally, information in an
affidavit reportedly claims Vearey
received R2 million from Czech fugi-
tive Radovan Krejcir, who is serving
a lengthy prison sentence and whom
Vearey says he has never met or had
dealings with.
A separate document leaked to
Weekend Argus about an under-
world murder in Strand in January
alleges Vearey worked with a sus-
pected gang boss.
This affidavit was compiled at
Plato’s offices and carries a Commu-
nity Safety departmental stamp.
It relates to the murder of
Nathaniel Moses, also known as
Nigga, a leader of the Mobsters fac-
tion of the 28s gang, and claims a
high-profile alleged gang leader who
ordered Moses’s killing had told
Vearey to apply for the position of
provincial police commissioner.
The affidavit also alleges a high-
profile ANC politician received
money from this gang leader to host
a party.
Vearey said yesterday this was
yet another attempt by Plato to try to
falsely implicate him in crimes.
● In 2012 Plato compiled a
dossier on conversations he said he
(Plato) had with a businessman, Jef-
frey Franciscus, who died in a car
accident in 2011. Names of police
officers, including Vearey’s,
appeared in the dossier which
claimed Vearey had worked with
gang bosses. The dossier, circulated
to some journalists, also detailed
alleged political plots. None of this
was ever substantiated.
● In 2013, Plato provided some
journalists with a seemingly explo-
sive affidavit by an informer, Pierre
Mark Anthony Wyngaardt, from
Tafelsig. It also claimed Vearey was
linked to gangsters and alleged sen-
ior ANC members and police offi-
cers were involved in drug traffick-
ing and other crimes. But when
Weekend Argus tracked down Wyn-
gaardt he described himself as a
“prophet” who was “guided by
angels”.
The director of public prosecu-
tions declined to pursue the matter.
Plato said he had never tarnished
Vearey’s name and Vearey should
simply get on with his investiga-
tions. “I’ve got no vendetta against
him,” Plato said yesterday.
“If other sources mention (his)
name, then he must ask the sources
why... I never asked any person to
put any information in an affidavit.”
Plato said if he came across
information implicating police offi-
cers, he alerted the provincial police
commissioner in writing and
handed the information to the
Hawks, as he had done with the
information passed on to him
recently .
Plato said Vearey needed to be
careful when it came to making alle-
gations against politicians.
“He may fall flat on his own face.
I can’t help it if people give me infor-
mation.”
Vearey said yesterday: “I want to
warn the MEC: I ignored it before.
But I’m going to play this thing out,
possibly in the media now.
“I want to warn his office and his
political party. None of these mat-
ters (I’ve been investigating) had
anything to do with politics. I was
doing my job…
“If you want us to play this game
out in the media, we will, because
you forced us in that direction.
“We will go wherever investiga-
tions lead us. We are going where
the facts lead us. All of the history of
what we know about… these things
will be exposed.
“Our investigations are bringing
us increasingly close to politicians
and I will go there.”
Vearey said those running the
smear campaigns were intensifying
efforts because police were getting
closer to uncovering their crimes.
Vearey told Weekend Argus he
had over the years investigated sev-
eral top gangsters, including from
the 26s and 28s, inside and outside
prison.
About six years ago it emerged
gang leaders unhappy about these
investigations had conspired to
either kill him or discredit him. He
had confronted several gang leaders
about this.
Vearey said some gangsters mis-
takenly thought he was targeting
only their gang, while others were
under the impression he wanted
revenge for a cousin he’d witnessed
being murdered in 1979.

SOUTH Africans are vibrating with
curiosity about sex toys, according to
a study released by the Statistic Brain
Research Institute. The country came
in third globally for the highest num-
ber of Google searches for sex toys,
trailing the US and the UK.
Why the sudden interest in spicing
up the bedroom with adult novelty
products?
Sexologists and sex shop owners
cite a number of reasons for the
expanding sex toy market, including
female empowerment in the bedroom
and the availability of high-quality
sex toys, many of which can be used
by both partners.
Adult World chief executive
Arthur Kalamaris said a big con-
tributing factor to the spiking interest
was the open-mindedness of the
female population.
“The whole marketplace is chang-
ing, with 55 percent of our sex toy
sales to women. It used to be male-
dominated, like the man would go
into the store and pick out a sex toy,
but that’s completely shifted,” he said.
Other sex shop owners also said
women were becoming more com-
fortable with introducing toys into
their sex lives, taking charge of their
own pleasure.
“Sex should be fun. Lots of people
don’t know that. Some women still see
it as an obligation and that’s not how
it should be,” said Sari Cohen, owner
of Cape Town’s Allure Sensuality
Emporium.
Cohen sees customers of all ages
and from all different backgrounds.
She offers a senior discount and fre-
quently attends events and parties to
educate curious potential buyers. Her
stockroom is filled with high-quality
products that range in price from
R350 to more than R3 000.
“I love sex toys so much because
they help women learn about them-
selves and their bodies,” she said. “If
they are used with consent and
women are opening their minds to the
possibility of pleasure, that’s really
empowering and important. It means
that they are ready to love themselves
and embrace themselves.”
However, Cohen also sees women
who buy sex toys but hide them from
their partners. “It makes me sad to
