  • Maybe Jack had a bolt-hole at the Travelodge?

      that's very interesting for any suspects that were staying there at the time. so goulston street is on the way directly there.

      If Long missed it the first time around, then that would make sense for someone heading straight back to the Victoria house, and dropping it there on the way.

      and if it wasn't there the first time around, the Victoria house is close enough that it would be easy to go there first, get cleaned up, drop stuff off and go out again literally around the corner to drop it..
      Interesting.
      Wasn't that where Hutchinson stayed Abby

          Indeed. Mind you, if I'd cut off the map a little higher, we'd be in very familiar territory. The lodging houses of Thrawl Street, Fashion Street, Flower & Dean Street, Brick Lane and Dorset Street were all within a three-minute walk of the Victoria Home. The Goulston Street doorway would have been a convenient stopping-off point for anyone heading to "Doss-house Central" from Mitre Square.

            Not only that, but if you draw a line between Mitre Square and the Victoria Home, it goes right through Hutchison Street....

            • Reading some of the comments here recalled an article I read describing an algorithm accomplishing, with much more complexity, what's been discussed here.

              Experts believe the Victorian serial killer Jack the Ripper lived in Flower and Dean Street in London’s notorious East End

                Heading straight for Dorset Street.

                  Possibly, but the Victoria Home and the doss-houses of Thrawl Street, Fashion Street, Flower & Dean Street and White's Row were all closer to the Goulston Street doorway than Dorset Street, and those of Brick Lane about equidistant. There were a LOT of lodging-houses crammed into that small area.

                  • White's Row,then Dorset and Thrawl being equidistant.

                    Victoria Home surely had a rule banning Rippers at that time of the morning

                      I sense a Hutchinson based conspiracy theory formulating there Joshua

                          I believe its also where Daniel Barnett stayed...and that there is a story that has Mary being seen with Daniel earlier in the week.
