PC Harvey
Hello Dixon. Actually, it is generally conceded that Jack was close to detection in Polly's case. Indeed, there are one or two supporters of Cross = Jack, so close did their paths overlap.
My guess, however, is that jack was all but caught at Mitre Square. The murder was in progress between about 1:37 and 1:44 AM. PC Harvey claimed to have gone through Church passage between about 1:40 and 1:42 AM. Had he been able to see across the square he might have watched Jack finishing the job.
Incidentally, if Annie was killed at 5:30 then Jack WAS caught. (See truth table conditions for conditional proposition with false antecedent and false consequent.)
The best.

how close was 'jack' to being caught
was thinking of this last night and ran through the 'five' and how close was he to being 'nabbed'.Obviously i am going down the line of Liz Stride was a victim of jack for this.
(1)Never really looked like being in danger of getting caught
(2)My fav,just feel taking the chance in a back yard(with 17 living at) 29 Hanbury Street,in near daylight was a very risky one.
(3)Looks like he was disturbed,so again pretty close.
(4)Did jack lure Catherine into Mitre Square,or was he led by her,with Catherine knowing how quite and dark the Sq would be? So for me not full of risks
(5) Could well have been very dangerous,due to the fact if someone entered the room(a client fellow resident) he was caught.
So for me Annie Chapman's was pretty daring and risky on jacks part,which one would you more clued up people have as your number one.
