Before:
In
the 1800s, the district of Whitechapel was a crime ridden quarter where 76,000
people lived in poverty, majority of them immigrants. The district was known
for being the worst slums with the worse overcrowding and highest death rates
in England, and it didn’t help that the jobs offered little payment. Women
during this time period could hardly get jobs and the jobs they could get
hardly paid them enough for a bed at night, and so, many of them turned to
prostitution. While men relied on assault and robbery to survive. With crime
and prostitution, violent attacks against women were common place in the East
End.

With
only five murders truly credited to him, he is still the most infamous serial
killer in the world. Named Leather Apron or Whitechapel murderer, he ultimately
is known as Jack the Ripper. The reason
for his fame doesn’t revolve solely around his mysterious identity but how he committed
his crimes. He surgically mutilated and disemboweled his victims with a
precision most would only assume a doctor could perform; meaning he had a
relationship with a scalpel for some time period. Like many criminals in
Eastend, his victims were prostitutes, all of which had their throats slit,
were disemboweled and their entrails removed.

His
first victim was Mary Anne. Mary Anne was an alcoholic whose nickname on the
street was Pretty Polly. Her murder was so newly gruesome that a police surgeon
stated, “Only a mad man could have done this.” Her body was discovered by 2
workmen not far from the London Hospital. Her throat had been cut, she was stabbed
multiple times in the stomach and her abdomen had been cut open.

Found on 29 Hanbury Street, her body was found alongside
a few of her possessions, her entrails still steaming from the fresh kill. Her
throat was slit, she was disemboweled, her intestines thrown over her shoulder
with her uterus removed and missing. They never did find the missing organ.

released from jail for public drunkenness, she was attacked in Mitre Square. Like
the others her throat was cut, abdomen sliced open, intestines over her
shoulder and her uterus and left kidney were removed. But something new was
done as well, her face had been mutilated, her ears were cut off and triangular
cuts, much like a circus clown, were in her eyes. Nearby on the wall, a message
was left, “The jewes (sic) are not men to be blamed for nothing.”

Letters from the Killer
After
Jack the Rippers second murder many letters were sent to the police and the
newspapers, all claiming to be from the killer himself. Though most were
regarded as pranks and others even false creations by the press themselves to
help publize the killer for their own personal gain. Only three ultimately made
it into history as possible letters from the famed killer, even though they are
still under speculation.

Dear Boss
“Dear Boss, Dear Boss
I keep
hearing the police have caught me but they won’t fix me just yet. I have
laughed when they look so clever and talk about being on the right
track. That joke about Leather Apron gave me real fits. I am down on whores and
shant quit ripping them till I do get buckled. Grand work the last job was. I
gave the lady no time to squeal. How can they catch me now. I love my work and
want to start again. You will soon hear of me with my funny little games. I
saved some of the proper red stuff in a ginger beer bottle over the last
job to write with but it went thick like glue and I cant use it. Red ink is fit
enough I hope. Ha. Ha. The next job I do I shall clip the ladys ears off and
send to the police officers just for jolly wouldn’t you. Keep this letter back
till I do a bit more work, then give it out straight. My knife’s so nice and
sharp I want to get to work right away if I get a chance. Good Luck. Yours
truly
Jack the
Ripper.
Don’t mind
me giving the trade name
PS wasn’t
good enough to post this before I got all the red ink off my hands curse it. No
luck yet. They say I’m a doctor now. Ha ha.”
The
letter was written with red ink with bad punctuations and spelling. It was
September 27, 1888, when the letter arrived at the Central News Agency in
London. It was initially thought as a hoax until Catherine Eddowes body was
found with her ear partially clipped off.

Regardless
of the promising clipped ear in the letter and the actual clipped ear of Jack’s
victim after the letter was sent, the letter is still believed to be a hoax and
many think it was all just a coincidence. The reason for this thought was that
Catherine’s ear had seemed too been nipped during the attack and looked more
like an accident than intentional. But what made this letter famous was how it
was signed. Below all the terrible punctuation, the letter was written from a
“Jack the Ripper” and thus, the name spread and now the killer is famously
known as Jack.

To

Received
on October 1, 1888. The postcard is a little hard to understand with the poorly
written text and the street talk but it mentions two of Jack’s victims that
were killed very close to one another. Elizabeth and Catherine were both killed
on September 30th, and part of Catherine’s ear was clipped.

The
letter was postmarked more than 24 hours after the killings took place, and
long enough after for the details on the killings to already have spread to the
public. This postcard is also believed to have been written by the same
journalist as the “Dear Boss” letter. Further proving it to be more of a hoax
than a letter from the real Jack.

However
here is an interesting fact though, the “Dear Boss” letter and the “Saucy

the Postcard is still missing.

along with the letter was a box with half a kidney. The officers in charge of
the case went to a kidney specialist to see if the kidney was truly one of the
victim’s. Though not 100% sure, the kidney specialist believed it was NOT one
of the victims’ kidneys. Like the other letters before this one, the letter and
the kidney has gone missing and the images we see of the letter today is just a
photograph taken of the letter before the loss.

Where’s Jackie:
There
is a list of hundreds of suspects of whom could be Jack the Ripper, some going
as high up as Prince Albert Victor, who had sustainable alibis on the nights of
the victims’ murders – he wasn’t in London at the time – and some as far as
H.H. Holmes himself, the infamous Chicago murderer. Some claiming that the year
1888, no one knew where Holmes was, and so he could have possibly been Jack the
Ripper - though his way of killing is
significantly different with a wide
range of type of victim. There are a few
on the list of suspects that stick out better than any others and I could go on
for hours talking about each person and why – but I will try to make it short
and simple for the sake of this video.

Tumblety was an Irish-born American who traveled back and forth from America to
Europe doing his trades which was an “Indian Herb” Doctor. At the time of the
murders Tumblety was doing his practice in London and apparently was staying in
a housing unit in Whitechapel during the murders. He was arrested in 1888 for
unrelated gross acts but he was let go. Almost immediately after the police
wanted to arrest him once again for the connection to the murders but he had
fled to France.

had trouble with the laws in both America and England due to his trade and also
his homosexual tendencies (which in England at the time was illegal) but he
didn’t fit the witness descriptions of the Ripper. It didn’t help that when he
fled the murders also stopped. He was seen as a good suspect due to his career
in medicine that may have required some learning in anatomy and even some
believe that the handwriting analysis that was done matched Tumblety to Jack

3: Aaron Kosminski
Probably the most known to be
the suspect was Aaron Kosminski. Aaron was a Jewish Polish emigrant who lived
in England for majority of his life. He worked as a hairdresser in the East End
of London in the Whitechapel district and was there during the time of the
murders. In 1891 he was institutionalized into an insane asylum due to being a
paranoid schizophrenic.

He was on the list of suspects from the start but
there was little evidence connecting him and some even believe that the
Kosminski could have been another person who was also a polish Jew of the same
age and even name who was a violent patient at the same asylum he was at. The
only evidence claiming to make him a true suspect was founded by author Russell
Edwards in September 2014 when he claimed to have proof of Kosminski’s guilt
with mitochondrial DNA that he got from a shawl he bought from an auction that
claimed to have been left at one of the murder scenes.

However skeptics say that his claim has never been
published or even verified by a peer-review process and his methods on finding
this evidence has been heavily criticized and for good reason. For instance, Russell
Edwards said that officer Simpson took the shawl from Catherine Eddowes crime
scene and took it home to his wife as a gift and that the DNA has been on the
shawl ever since as it has been passed down generations.

Critics claim that Officer Simpson wasn’t even at the
crime scene that night when he apparently took this shawl. Even if there was a
shawl, my question is why would you take a blood stained shawl from a dead
person and take it your wife? Especially since the crimes committed by Jack the
Ripper was seen as so disturbing that people would fear such items.

I will like to point out that
Kosminski had apparently been ill in the head since 1885, having heard auditory
hallucinations and paranoid with fear of being fed by other people, he also
refused to wash or bathe. His insanity was recorded as “Self-abuse” which could
have meant overly masturbation. His poor diet also kept him emaciated for
years; his would make him frail, thin and weak.

Being weak would make it hard to quickly disembowel
victims, even harder to catch them and hold them long enough to slice their
throat without showing extreme struggle if not even getting away. These woman
were prostitutes and knew that physical abuse might come down the line – they
would fight if need be and against a very weak male whose not all in the head
may be an easy contender for them.

I, too, have paranoid schizophrenia and doing
anything during an episode can be fuzzy and disoriented unless I hit a fit of
rage or something during the likes but never to the point of knowing where to
disembowel or how to slice. Mental disorders don’t cause people to gain
knowledge and I can’t imagine Aaron having the knowledge of where to slice,
dice and take out what was taken out of these victims. But hey, that’s just my
opinion.

My Theory:
I’m no police officer,
investigator or criminal writer like some of these theorists are, I have never
gone to college for any of those subjects either but criminals, disorders and
all other things bizarre is a very big subject that I am extremely passionate
about. So take my lack of school knowledge in mind but my also research and
diligence into the things I love.

From my years of watching and
reading about criminals I have learned that most criminals, especially
murderers and serial killers that for some reason or another they go after
particularly victims. How they kill also depends on what they are into and what
has happened in their past.

I am trying to get at is this: What if Jack the Ripper went after female,
middle aged prostitutes for a reason?
Most
killers go after victims they see a relation to or a hate for. Males who were
especially attached to their mothers or were abused or neglected by them,
usually go after female victims. Almost as if de-facing the victim and seeing
who they truly want to kill. Same thing with father figures, males may go after
other males or even instead – an entire family – in order to gain some control
over the head of the house or dismantling the family.

If
Jack went after middle aged females, maybe he had an abusive relationship with
his mother? Maybe she, too was a prostitute? Most prostitutes during those time
periods paid no mind to their children and often cared only for themselves,
drinking, gambling and the such and would yell, scream, and even hurt those closest
to them due to their own addictions.

Digging
even deeper, Jack the Ripper would almost always take out the uterus, a pure
sign of a woman’s feminity – what makes a woman a woman. Almost – dehumanizing
them. That would take a lot of hate. So much hate that I can only imagine that
the killer must have been also sexual abused as a child.

So
let’s put it all together if you’re not hearing what I am saying. A boy born
out of wedlock – most likely – to a prostitute mother who may have been
addicted to the drink, was probably abuse sexually and physically grew up with
so much hate and anger that killing animals became a hobby. Learning that he
liked dissection, he studied and went to school for anatomy, probably becoming
a doctor or something of that sort. Fulfilling the
knowledge of dissection, he finally wanted to test the waters and began killing
prostitute women that reminded him of his mother. With each kill he grew more
personal, probably seeing his mother’s face as he slaughtered each victim – and
each victim was more gruesome than the last until the very last kill – Mary
Kelly.
