Yorkshire Ripper Peter Sutcliffe ‘wants to start new life in Poland with 17-year-old pen pal’

YORKSHIRE Ripper Peter Sutcliffe wants to start new life in Poland with 17-year-old pen pal, it has been claimed.

Previously, The Sun exclusively reported that Sutcliffe was "besotted" with Polish teen Victoria, who has sent him gifts, which wardens have confiscated, while he has sent her forms to visit him at HMP Frankland, County Durham.

But now, according to the , Sutcliffe believes he can live with the 17-year-old in Poland.

A source told the paper:  “She has been writing to him and talking to him on the phone for months and they have become increasingly close. She has promised him she will be there for him when he comes to Poland.”

But Victoria's parents, who she reportedly lives with in a rural flat with her dog in Poland, are "worried" after looking into his past, it's claimed.

The source said: “Victoria has kept her parents largely in the dark about their relationship because she is terrified they will forbid it and stop her travelling to the UK.

“They knew she was writing to a man in England but they didn’t really know anything about him. They’re just a normal family but are now really worried after ­properly looking into his past.”

The source added that she had developed strong feelings for Sutcliffe, despite the age gap and "a recent tiff".
