May 31, 1951 - Anthony Hardy

Hardy operated in London during the early 2000s, targeting vulnerable women whose deaths initially went undetected in part because of gaps in how authorities responded to missing persons reports in that community. The extreme manner in which he disposed of victims — dismemberment and decapitation — drew comparisons to Victorian-era crimes, lending him a press epithet that reflected both the geography and the brutality of his methods. Convicted of three murders, investigators long suspected his actual toll was considerably higher.
