The Murder of Teresa De Simone

In December 1979, 22 year old Teresa De Simone was found strangled in the back seat of her car in Southampton, England. At the same time as the Yorkshire Ripper, people in the South wondered if they had their own monster in their midst.

30 years later, the crime was front page news again, shocking everyone and subjecting police to intense scrutiny.
