The Yorkshire Ripper who is Identified as Peter Sutcliffe has been claimed dead due to Coronavirus.
According to the reports, Peter Sutcliffe died on friday morning around 1:10 am after his lungs finally collapsed.
It was stated that Sutcliffe contracted the bug on November 7 in prison. He was put in isolation and monitored closely but refused any treatment for coronavirus.
A Prison Service spokesman said: “HMP Frankland prisoner Peter Coonan (born Sutcliffe) died in hospital on 13 November.
“The Prisons and Probation Ombudsman has been informed.”
Sutcliffe had spent almost 40 years locked up in Broadmoor and prison for murdering 13 women and attempting to kill seven others between 1975 and 1980.
His five-year reign of terror in the north of England led to one of the biggest police manhunts of the 20th century.
Confessing to cops after his eventual arrest, Sutcliffe notoriously claimed he was “a beast” driven on “by a devil” inside him.
A source of his final moments told TheSun UK that: “No tears were shed.
“His death was as pitiful as the vile life he had lived.”
It is understood no formal cause of death has yet been established.
