The Hammersmith nude murders was a series of six murders in London, England, in 1964
and 1965. The victims, all prostitutes, were found undressed in or near the River Thames, leading
the press to nickname the killer Jack the Stripper (a reference to Jack the Ripper). Two earlier
murders, committed in 1959 and 1963, have also been linked by some investigators to the same
perpetrator. Despite intense media interest and one of the biggest manhunts in Scotland Yard's
history, the case is unsolved. All forensic evidence gathered at the time is reported to have been
destroyed or lost.
