Jack the Ripper allegedly murdered 5 women within the city & east end of London between 31 August 1888 and 9th November 1888. He was suspected of killing another 13 women up until 1891. Although never caught, there have been many conspiracy theories from Royalty, A butcher and A surgeon as to who carried out these atrocities. He has yet to be captured....Sleep tight!

The name 'Jack the Ripper' has become the most infamous in the annals of murder. Yet, the amazing fact is that his identity remains unproven today. In the years 1888-1891 the name was regarded with terror by the residents of London's East End, and was known the world over. So shrouded in myth and mystery is this story that the facts are hard to identify at this remove in time. And it was the officers of Scotland Yard to whom the task of apprehending the fearsome killer was entrusted.

They may have failed, but they failed honourably, having made every effort and inquiry in their power to free London of the unknown terror.

Over the years the mystery has deepened to the degree that the truth is almost totally obscured. Innumerable press stories, pamphlets, books, plays, films, and even musicals have dramatised and distorted the facts to such a degree that the fiction is publicly accepted more than the reality.

I sure hope this will help you!!!!!!!

Who committed the Whitechapel Murders in 1888? Nobody knows for sure. It was first thought that it was one of the Queens surgeons as the brutal murders showed signs of medical experience and that doctor was known to visit prostitutes in the area. However, all the facts point to an American quack Dr. Francis Tumblety, as he called himself, who lived in the vicinity but fled back to America . The papers in America showed that the American police suspected him and Scotland Yard officers actually went to America to interview the suspect but he had been released. Once the murders stopped, the investigations continued but nobody was ever charged.

look in the Times newspaper website archive - there was an article about a year ago about descendants finding the original Detectives note book or diary where he recorded it was a polish immigrant that had been caugght for another crime which is why the murders stopped and had been locked away as he was criminally insane - he died in jail - the Detectives notes in his book were printed in the article with a sketch of the suspect

There have been many guesses and theories but no one actually knows for sure. There is unlikely to be a solution to this enigma.

nobody knows for certain but it is suspected that it was a member of the royal family if I'm not mistaken and that's why the case was handled so poorly
