Why were these known as the "cleft chin" murders? Did the perpetrators and/or victims all have cleft chins? Was it metaphorical? This is a glaring omission. For all I know, the answer is well-known in the UK but for a more global persepctive, this information should be included. --Icarus18:33, 23 May 2006 (UTC)Reply
Are we sure that more than one of the victims actually died? Orwell's piece (here) says: "It was almost chance that the two people concerned committed that particular murder, and it was only by good luck that they did not commit several others". He says the taxi driver was killed, but it's not explicit whether the other 2 victims died or not.... Evercat02:14, 14 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

I've read more about this murder and the film made about it featuring Kiefer Sutherland and after re-reading Orwell's essay I am 99% certain that only one victim was claimed. I am going to create a Cleft Chin Murder page and edit the information with some cited refernces and redirect Cleft Chin Murders to there.Surferwoz13:28, 14 May 2007 (UTC)Reply
The article no longer even mentions England all hint of a location or scene of a crime appears to have been removed from the article. Precisely where a crime takes place is a rather significant piece of information as it determines which legal jurisdiction investigates and prosecutes the case. Even saying London is not precise enough because are we dealing with the Metropolitan Police or the City of London Police, for example. So Where did this happen? - Cameron Dewe (talk) 11:49, 8 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
