The ashes of the Yorkshire Ripper have been dispersed into the Atlantic Ocean.
Two years after the Yorkshire Ripper passed away from covid, a buddy fulfilled one of the serial killer’s last desires by scattering his ashes on Lanzarote.
She traveled to the Canary Islands with his bones in an urn and dumped them into the Atlantic after often seeing the ripper, actual name Peter Sutcliffe, in prison.
Sutcliffe, who murdered 13 people and attempted to kill seven more, had requested that his pal disperse his ashes “somewhere warm and sunny” so that he might be in a “better and happier place,” according to The Sun.
She traveled to the Spanish island this week for a vacation, and when she arrived, she transported his ashes to a rocky cove close to the Playa de los Pocillos beach, which is a destination favorite among British vacationers.
At the age of 74, Sutcliffe passed away in November 2020 together with Covid. He had hardly even left the country when he was taken into custody in January 1981.
His unnamed buddy stated: “I made a promise to Peter that when I went on my travels, I would disperse his ashes someplace lovely and sunny.”

Two years after the Yorkshire Ripper’s death from covid, a friend fulfilled one of the serial killer’s last desires by scattering his ashes on Lanzarote.
“I know some may find it disgusting, but as far as I’m concerned, I was fulfilling a dying elderly man’s desires…
It was a beautiful moment, and when it was over, I felt like Peter was honoring it by engulfing me in a wave.
However, Emily Jackson’s son, who in 1976 at the age of 42 became Sutcliffe’s second murder victim, termed the ceremony “shocking and filthy.”
Former roofer Neil Jackson stated: “His remains should have been thrown into a sewer or sent to the neighborhood council dump.”
Between 1975 and 1980, during the course of a five-year killing spree, Sutcliffe killed 13 women and attempted to kill seven more.
Of Sutcliffe’s 13 victims, twelve.
Wilma McCann, Emily Jackson, Irene Richardson, and Patricia Atkinson are on the top row, from left to right. Jayne McDonald, Jean Jordan, Yvonne Pearson, and Helen Rytka are in the middle row. Vera Millward, Josephine Whitaker, Barbara Leach, and Jacqueline Hill are on the bottom row.
Wilma McCann, the first victim of Jack the Ripper, is seen being sought for by Yorkshire police in 1975.
He received a 20-year term in prison in 1981, and in 2010 the punishment was changed to a whole-life order.
Over the course of their five-year inquiry, police spoke with him no less than nine times.
He often utilized sex workers in Leeds and Bradford and specifically targeted them.
Police ultimately arrested Sutcliffe in Sheffield in 1981 for using fake license plates.
At that time, he admitted to the murders and said the voice of God had commanded him to carry them out.
He was 74 when he passed away from Covid in a jail in November 2020.
