On June 7, 1972, 14-year-old Judith Roberts left home on her bicycle and never returned. Her body was discovered later that evening, sparking a murder investigation that would grip the nation.
In the years that followed, the case took an unexpected turn, leading to a controversial conviction and, decades later, a shocking reversal that left more questions than answers.
To this day, the identity of Judith’s killer remains a mystery. Some have even speculated that Peter Sutcliffe may have been involved, though her murder was never included among his known victims.
