The name's Bond

[Abby Normal]

I would suspect that someone of bonds stature would not have to take the risk of killing and mutilating out on the streets.

An interesting side note - a very well known American company who featured heavily in the bursting of the housing market bubble which threw the American economy into a deep recession is using a rather unique legal defense in the course of litigation. They are attempting to argue that an opinion, by definition, can't really be said to be wrong. It is, as stated, simply an opinion. We'll have to see how that plays out.

c.d.

They are both right and wrong.

You can only be sued over an opinion when you are being paid for it.

I expect they'll go down in a screaming heap, if that's the entirety of the defence,as they were being paid for the opinions they were giving out

It could simply be that as a doctor Bond took offense at any suggestion that the Ripper could be a fellow doctor. Therefore he would have been reluctant to assign any medical skills to what the killer did.

If this is the case then it appears he also took offence at the suggestion that a butcher could be the culprit, ruling them above suspiciion, considering the primitive hacking displayed on the bodies of the victims.

Whatever happened to looking for the proverbial "second opinion"?

And as most medical opinions are simply that "opinions" naturally not all are right.

[Rosella]

Bond was also a 'real doctor', just as Phillips and Brown were. If he was never suspected of being Jack, and it's clear he wasn't, why would he need an alibi?

[Wickerman]

So if one Dr disagrees wth other doctors, he is either right or a liar?

Is that really your suggestion?

He estimates Kelly's TOD to muddy the waters and create doubt,another lie dressed as opinion

Sorry,that should be to create an alibi

[Robert St Devil]

I cant seem to follow the logic: since Bond disagreed with the other doctors, that makes him the Ripper, what?

I mean, i see what you're doing, tying him to the murders thru his profile, but is there anything beyond profile that ties him to the murders (for you)?

In 3 separate cases Bond contradicts the other doctors,how do you account for that?When he says the man didn't have the skills of a butcher,it is a blatant lie,dressed as an opinion.We have the testimony of two real doctors,Phillips and Brown who are telling us the killer had anatomical knowledge,so he was at least a butcher.That is the truth.Why do you believe this man over the other doctors?You are thinking what he wants you to think,that the culprit was one of the herd.If you are taken in by this,he becomes one in a cast of thousands.If you believe Brown and Phillips,the field is narrowed down considerably,and the police can focus their inquiries,therefore he isn't ruled out completely.

The whole case comes down to this question,do you believe Bond or do you believe all the other doctors.That is up to you.

How old was Hitler in 1888?

Apparently being conceived, according to Alan Moore in "From Hell"-- possibly one of his little historical liberties, perhaps. In any case, I think Adolf Hitler may be one historical personage who WASN'T Jack the Ripper!

Hello elmore77.

You do realize you are claiming that it was a common site for many to see Dr Bond out street walking with prostitutes in the middle of the night, right? That he would be accustomed to taking unfortunate girls 'round corners, walk Elizabeth Stride up and down Berner street for an hour, and run the risk of having to return to the scene of MJKs murder only hours after he was possibly witnessed 'there'...
