Trevor

No, not quite.  :teddyr: :teddyr:

DNA tests have shown that the Ripper was one Aaron Kosminski, a Polish immigrant in England. I remember seeing the documentary The Secret Identity of Jack The Ripper in 1988 which also proposed him as the killer.

I have always thought the Ripper was a member of royalty or someone high up in the government.

I dunno. It seems more like a way to promote the new book this is based on than truly convincing evidence. Someone a decade ago claimed to have DNA evidence for Jack the Ripper's identity, finding a completely different person than this result.

Your name is Walter Sickert?

Yeah whenever something's being used to promote a book I always have to wonder how much is science and how much is marketing.  The origins of the shawl will need to be thoroughly scrutinized and the DNA evidence verified.  A very interesting theory if proven true though.

The Walter Sickert Book was utter foolishness.   It was all circumstantial.

I agree, the Albert Edward theory was my favorite. But knowing about realty its probably some random nut, like this Polish cat.

I always assumed it was Dr. Giggles. Oh well.

Hmmn ... maybe Jack The Ripper was a woman?
Hold onto your dreams ....

Could be. Women weren't normally allowed into the world of medical knowledge, but given the fact the victims were mostly hookers, if could be that a knowledgeable woman could have waged a war against sin. Given the body parts removed, is it possible the killer was righting some transgressions?

QuoteHe says the infamous killer is Aaron Kosminski, a Jewish émigré from Poland, who worked as a barber.

There we go blaming the Jews again. I wonder how long before it comes out that this guy is a member of the new Nazi party or some similiar group.
This is my awesome signature.  Jealous?

Trevor is a woman . . .?! In the guise of a woman disguised as a man . . .?! Well, has anybody ever seen our Trevor and Joan Collins in the same room together? I don't think so.

Frankly, when it comes to the real ripper, I don't know jack.
