Unknown Speaker 9

But since the widow wasn't important enough, no further investigation was done, and Peter was free to continue killing. Like a lot of killers, Dinsdale started off strong, but tried to tamp down his urges after the initial spree. Two and a half years went by without a fatal house fire started by Dinsdale, but eventually the desire won out.

On June 3rd, 1976, Peter, now age 16, snuck into a house where an old lady was babysitting her grandchildren. The woman had just put her infant grandson to bed upstairs when Peter doused the cupboard under the stairs with paraffin oil and set it on fire. The baby was trapped and died in the flames. Now, Peter set another fire about six months later that killed another baby.

But his most murderous fire came just three days after the murder of that second baby, when Densdale set fire to a retirement home. Peter later said that he was riding his bike around Hull while carrying a bottle of paraffin oil, looking specifically for a large house to burn.

He came across Winsley Lodge, the retirement home, where he broke a window, poured oil on the floor, set it on fire, and rode away. Eleven old men burned to death in this fire. But again, arson was not suspected. Instead, the fire was blamed on a plumber who was working with a blowtorch in the boiler room.

But for me, that's a little infantilizing, because disabled people find ways to make it work every single day. Yeah, backpack.

Now, from there, Dinsdale set fire after fire, burning a swath of murderous destruction across the Yorkshire town of Hull. The targets were chosen randomly. Anytime Peter got the tingling in his fingers and all the fires were blamed on anything but arson.
