The kidney removal of Catherine Eddowes.

[Trevor Marriott]

Hi George,

I agree that Sequeira was the least qualified doctor involved, but he was present at the post mortem, and therefore did see what had been done by the killer. Also, of course, Dr Brown was very experienced and highly regarded, and he seemed to have been perfectly satisfied that the killer had sufficient light, and did the deed as claimed.

It's not all about the light available to the killer; it's whether the killer had the anatomical knowledge to first locate the organs in the darkest part of the square in a blood-filled abdomen and then have the knowledge as to how to remove them and to remove them in the time he had available to him from what was described as the darkest part of the square.,and to remove a kidney which is probably one of the most difficult organs to locate and remove

You have to remember in today's world of anatomy, when performing surgical procedures, the doctors wear surgical gloves so that they can take hold of slippery organs these had not been invented in 1888 so another problem the killer would have encountered had been seeking to remove organs

And as we don’t know who the killer was and therefore his level of knowledge or skill how can it be claimed that the killer couldn’t have done it. If he had that level of skill and knowledge then he obviously could have done it.
