Chapeltown - Red Light Area, The Gaeity


The Gaiety was situated at 88-95 Roundhay Road. This pub was built in 1972 and is now the site of the Archway centre. Closed by 1990 and demolished by 2001.
The Gaeity Bar, just out of town on the north side, had in fact been five separate public bars topped off with a futuristic double peaked concrete roof.


The Gaiety opened officially on 7th December 1972 on the site of the old Gaiety Kinema at the junction of Gathorne Terrace with Roundhay Road. It was designed by R. K. Waites of the York architects firm of Waites & Moorey, and built at a cost of £225,000. The site was divided by Gipton Beck and so the Gaiety was designed with a central archway under which the beck ran in a culvert. The two sides of the building were linked by a bridge which housed one of the 5 bars, The Vaudeville Bar. On the ground floor was The Roundhay Public Bar which could accommodate 350 to 400 people; above was The Carousel Bar with a dance floor, jukebox and a 17 metre circular bar; also on the ground floor was The Gaiety Bar and Gaiety Restaurant and above these was The Variety Room which provided live entertainment at weekends and offered room hire for private parties and weddings.
From 1990, and during this period, it had stood empty, attracting drug users and prostitutes in its derelict state.

In the summer of 1964 Sutcliffe became a grave digger at Bingley Cemetery. His wage was £7 for a forty-four-hour week.




Worked at Clark Transport



Colleagues at work nicknamed him ‘’The Ripper.’’

His wife, Sonia, had paranoid schizophrenia.
Sutcliffe was questioned nine times by the police.
It was later reported Sutcliffe was sighted over 50 times in the red light area.
Major errors of justice in the investigation, negligence, 5 million hours of police time





The arresting officers on duty when Sutcliffe was finally caught.

(Note the Masonic handshake)


This hoax story (the false confessions with the audio recording) is said to have cost the case £1million and three innocent lives.

It turns out that the Hoaxer who had misdirected police was actually a retired police officer who had a grudge against George Oldfield, his reasons for the false letters were to settle the score against Oldfield whom he hated.






Sutcliffe cost taxpayers at least £11million while he was locked up for 39 years but many of his victims' families did not receive a penny in compensation.

I've been reading Noel O'Gara's book 'The Real Yorkshire Ripper.' We've also been corresponding. I discovered this book on your informative channel, thank you!
- At least two men were involved: Peter Sutcliffe, the patsy and Bill Tracey, the informant. It is likely Jimmy Savile was involved.
- I now firmly believe Savile was both a procurer of minors and an informant working for Brit intel.
- It is my belief Tracey was an informant for Brit Intel during the height of the Troubles. On pp 134, O'Gara writes how Tracey made frequent trips to NI, especially a market town called Jonseboro.
- It is possible Tracey was a double agent. The police in both Eire and England were very hands-off with him.
- Tracey spent time in many prisons (category A) and had varied short-term jobs.
- He clearly targeted O'Gara as part of a cover. They met at a furniture auction house in Cara, Eire. Later he worked at a meat processing plant, also in Eire.
MIND CONTROL
O'Gara writes how Peter Sutcliffe was overwhelmed by the Ripper's brutal murders. He became involved in a tit-for-tat situation. Sutcliffe murdered his victims (four that we know of) with a stone in a sock (news to me). Tracey was the one who used the hammer.
O'Gara is forensic in the list of dates and locations of both Sutcliffe and Tracey.
1. I believe Sutcliffe and Tracey knew each other and it's not a far stretch to think Tracey and Savile knew one another.
2. Tape recordings - O'Gara states Tracey purchased a tape recorder in Jonesboro. I have a feeling the tapes Tracey sent as 'The Ripper' to the police were possibly mind control triggers for Sutcliffe. The recordings were widely circulated in the press.
3. 'The Ripper' also sent three letters to the police. These also received wide circulation.
It's not a far stretch to think these contained trigger words/messages for Sutcliffe.
Peter Sutcliffe was always known to be quiet and gentle. His wife was diagnosed schizophrenic. She spent time in hospital. I believe it is possible that Sutcliffe received some sort of 'treatment.'
It is my argument that Bill Tracey was a hitman/serial murderer. That's why he allowed to get away with these hideous murderers. He is apparently a 'free man' as I write.
NOTE: one week after O'Gara went to the English police to present his evidence against Tracey, Tracey himself was involved in a head-on collision with a lorry. It was in Eire. Tracey ended up spending time in three different hospitals, one in Dublin. The third was a mental hospital. He allegedly had a broken leg...
Further investigation
1. I'm nearly finished reading Noel's book
2. As Mae Brussell always said, compare dates and events. I want to see what also occurred in and around Bradford, Leeds, Manchester and other Northern English cities eg IRA activities.
3. The police admitted there were two people involved.
4. Several victims described a stocky, bearded Irishman. That is Bill Tracey.
5. There are many other victims. I want to see if there were any drug/gang/IRA-related murders within this area or where Tracey visited.
6. Want to learn about the mental hospitals where Tracey and Mrs Sutcliffe stayed? Why was Tracey sent to a mental hospital?
7. Who was Superintendent Dick Holland?
Was Peter Sutcliffe being programmed to kill? Was Tracey being programmed to kill? He seems to be a nasty piece of work.
The timeframe is 1975-81. Same period as similar crimes committed dans les Etats Unis n'est ce pas?
Introduce the IRA angle.
Billy Tracey was likely a double agent/informant. Both the English police and Garda were hands-off; he broke laws and physically assaulted the Garda.
Noel O'Gara states Tracey was an informant for the Garda. He witnessed an event himself.
An incident when Tracey was 9 yr old indicates serious sexual trauma.
Tracey would go into a trance and he stated in the mornings he felt bad after having killed a victim. He did some gruesome things to the women.
He managed to get two other men to check into the Portlaoise mental hospital, where he had spent time. V Jonestown. What occurred in that hospital?
His house was described as being like a chemist. Again v Jonestown.
It's possible his wife was also an informant. She had been a sex worker. Their combined links reach the Kray gang, Christine Keeler, Mandy Rice-Davis, Dr Stephen Ward and Profumo himself!!!
Peter Sutcliffe and his wife need further investigation.
MK Ultra experiments occurred in London...
Tracey and Jimmy Savile share nearly the same MO. They may have set up Sutcliffe to take the proverbial fall.
I argue they both worked for British Intel. Savile as an informant and procurer for blackmail eg foreign 'dignitaries', etc.
Tracey was some sort of IRA informant and hitman. Have you read Tom O'Neill's 'Chaos' about Charles Manson? It's beginning to feel like that.
FYI: Billy Tracey nor West Yorkshire, Manchester or other police forces have sued Noel O'Gara.

dang - it never occurred to me that false/hoax/compulsive confessors may be agents or part of a coverup. 😮
