John Duffy and David Mulcahy (both born 1959) are two British rapists and serial killers who together attacked numerous women at railway stations in the south of England through the 1980s. They are known as the ''Railway Rapists'' and the ''Railway Killers''. == The first attacks == In 1982, a woman (KJ) was raped by two men near Hampstead Heath station; and eighteen more were attacked over the next year. Even more occurred through 1984, and then three were raped on the same night in 1985 in Hendon. Police set up an urgent investigation to try to find the perpetrators, called ''Operation Hart''. On 29 December 1985, Alison Day, 19, was dragged off a train at Hackney Wick station by Duffy and Mulcahy and repeatedly raped. She was then strangled with a piece of string. Police further stepped up their search for the attacker who had been nicknamed by the press the "Railway Rapist". The death of Alison Day changed this name to the ''Railway Killer'', a tag reinforced by the rape and murder of 15-year-old Maartje Tamboezer in West Horsley on 17 April 1986. As well as rape and strangulation, Maartje's body was set on fire. A month later on 18 May 1986, local TV presenter Anne Locke, 29, was abducted and murdered as she alighted from a train in Brookmans Park, Hertfordshire. The name of Duffy, a martial arts instructor, was touted as a suspect among thousands of other names as he was a known sex offender, having been previously convicted of the rape of his wife. Rope found in his parents' house linked him to the second murder victim. Mulcahy was also questioned due to his close friendship with Duffy, but victims were still traumatised and unable to pick him out of an identity parade. Mulcahy was released for lack of evidence. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「John Duffy and David Mulcahy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
