The Camden Ripper

Just a stone's throw north of Buckingham Palace, where the queen hangs out... down-on-their-luck sex workers get destroyed bodily. The killer is caught pretty quickly.... then odious paper-pushers allow the murderer out for day privileges over and over. Eventually a handful of women, are murdered.

This case is a look into the dead soul of the the UK, and all of its bureaucratic impotence. The crime is insane, but the departmental follow-through and mannered blame-passing is contemptible beyond belief.

Who's to blame? All of the feeble govt employees (cops, detectives, Heads of Psych wards) taking nice paychecks can tell you why it's not them; while keeping a straight-face. This case is notorious for the Cop who laughs, as he admits he declined to arrest the perp, when his son told him he's sitting near them in a library.

The camerawork on this is like a fever dream. Tolstoy's Raskolnikov wouldn't be able to keep up.
