Picking up on New Waterloo's thoughts on BJ and armpits. We're probably in Freudian territory here but the method of suicide and the placing of the sanitary towel on Helen Puttock does seem more than coincidence.
It may explain another puzzle as to why BJ restricted his murders to women who were menstruating. Armpits are traps for human odour and it's sometimes possible to notice when a woman is on her period due to a stronger scent from her sweat. Helen Puttock was wearing a sleeveless dress when she went out dancing at the Barrowfield I think. I am assuming that BJ's views on women were very much taken from Leviticus and that he thought they should be indoors at such times, not out dancing.
