Different couple,( I think). You are referring to Fred and Rosemary West, who were certainly both "in" in the killings of a number of young women, but at their home, not "stalked" as in the case of Sutcliffe.

As to the situation at the time, grew up in Wakefield in the early-mid 70's, and there was never a feeling of terror or threat, top of Westgate every Friday/Saturday, Yates', Black Horse, Rooftop Gardens etc, was awash with young people just having a good time. Maybe those few miles made the difference, who knows.

Glad he is gone, and would have been happy to pull the lever on the hangmans drop if given the chance.
