The Whitechapel murderer must act strange to be strange, he must look bad to be bad?
I wish these Profilers would leave the silent movie caricature out of the equation.

The killer just as likely looked more like Paul Newman than Lon Chaney...

No, the Sketch was a respectable paper...this is the Mail (which you can't even use for traditional purposes, lest you rub on more than you rub off)...
 
All the best

Well, I look to me that Montague John Druitt, Michael Ostrog, Aaron Kosminski and Dr Francis J.Tumblety are all sketches.Originally posted by Cogidubnus View PostNo, the Sketch was a respectable paper...this is the Mail (which you can't even use for traditional purposes, lest you rub on more than you rub off)...

Well Ostrog might be a photo.It was Bury whodunnit. The black eyed scoundrel.
The yam yams are the men, who won't be blamed for nothing..

this reminds of a quote i once read, cant recall it word for word but it went something along the lines of "subtlety is the subterfuge of a scoundrel"...or something like that....Originally posted by Wickerman View PostThe Whitechapel murderer must act strange to be strange, he must look bad to be bad?

IMO, he worked, he mingled, he seemed like he was helping out, he was known as a local face,.....we have seen it so many times in modern cases....Jack will have been visible, just a shame we dont have any photos of crowds gathered at the murder sites because i bet any money he will have been amonst the gathered crowd....Originally posted by Wickerman View PostMany a true word spoken in jest....

Face in the Crowd
That seems entirely plausible to me, Jason, but we still wouldn't know which face in the crowd was his.Originally posted by Jason View PostIMO, he worked, he mingled, he seemed like he was helping out, he was known as a local face,.....we have seen it so many times in modern cases....Jack will have been visible, just a shame we dont have any photos of crowds gathered at the murder sites because i bet any money he will have been amonst the gathered crowd....
Regards, BridewellI won't always agree but I'll try not to be disagreeable.

Entirely agree with your 'local man', a regular face in Whitechapel. A worker, yes, not a dosser, and not living in a lodging-house.Originally posted by Jason View PostIMO, he worked, he mingled, he seemed like he was helping out, he was known as a local face,.....we have seen it so many times in modern cases....Jack will have been visible, just a shame we dont have any photos of crowds gathered at the murder sites because i bet any money he will have been amonst the gathered crowd....
Thats something we don't have isn't it, for all the press coverage about these funerals, its a pity no-one thought to photograph the assemblies.

Ironic, is it not that, on the day after publication of the Leveson report, we're bewailing the lack of an intrusive press in 1888?Thats something we don't have isn't it, for all the press coverage about these funerals, its a pity no-one thought to photograph the assemblies.
