I've read on several occasions in books and even the Casebook website that some believe JtR could have killed up to 30 or more women. Even if you add up all the Whitechapel victims with the other victims known, that still doesn't add up to 30 and over. So just 'who' are the 30 women??

I have so far....

01. Emma Smith
02. Martha Tabram
03. Mary Ann Nichols
04. Annie Chapman
05. Elizabeth Stride
06. Catherine Eddowes
07. Mary Jane Kelly
08. Rose Mylett
09. Whitehall Victim
10. Alice McKenzie
11. Pinchin Street Victim
12. Frances Coles
13. Mrs Woolfe
14. Few other torso victims
15. Mary Ann Austin
16. Emily Dimmock
17. Carrie Brown
18. Kitty Ronan

So, who are the rest?? :scratchchin:

Jane Beetmore, was killed at Birtley Fell, near Gateshead, and Inspector Roots travelled up from London to see if it was a Ripper victim, but the Gateshead Police eventually got their man. There is a dissertation on casebook regarding Jane, but at the time, the Press had her down as a "possible victim of JTR"

I guess it depends on which suspect your looking at, how many did Patricia Cornwell finger as victims of Sickert?

R. Michael Gordon fingers more for George Chapman.

And even Robert D'Onston Stephenson killed his wife and chopped her up, then she magically pulled herself together and appeared in the census entries after the fact!

I had a "Let's Run Up the Body Count" thread but I think it was wiped out by the crash. There were 20 something on there, then if you think say Deeming was the Ripper you add his victims and that gets close to 30 if not over. You could also add things like Texas and Nicaragua and get even more. I don't agree of course.

It would be interesting to start a "body count" list.
