What 5 Questions Would You Like Answered?

"Who buys the drinks?"

Hello Ally. Thanks.

"I'm confused. What precisely do you think she was doing? I read back through the thread and you state here that she clearly wasn't returning home but you don't think she was soliciting either. So what was she doing? Taking a pleasure stroll?"

In spite of her story about going home she proceeded at once to Mitre sq.

To understand that action, I think one must first understand her other actions on Saturday afternoon. She was supposed to be headed to Bermondsey. Clearly, she did not go there. Instead, penniless, she got drunk. Who bought her drinks?

What is your favourite story here? Happy to dialogue.

Cheers.

Well that's par for the course you contradicting anything I say you just cant help it can you ?

So now in 5 mins he even had time to rifle her pockets come on get real.

How do you exactly know what type of dress or pockets any of the victims had in their clothes in any event.

And besides the killer stabbed Eddowes and cut her from the waistband twice downwards and once across.

Take your blinkers off !

As long as you keep stating ill informed opinion then yeah, I will contradict you.

5 minutes is ample time.

I know common Victorian period attire for that area. Ive done my research.

I suggest you do.

Thanks John
Out of the three only Mckenzie IMHO is possible as a ripper victim. And even if she was, he might have been interrupted by the cop before he took it.

True, Abby.

I just didn`t want the open minded to think we were sheltering in our Canonical Bunker ;-)

Hi Neil

Looks as if you were not wholly convinced.
God knows why.

Cheers

I think a few more people than God knows.

Hi Abby



Mylett and McKenzie both had money, and I`m sure Coles had some nearby her body.

Hi Abby

. None of the victims were found with any money.

Why must everything in ripper world be made so complicated. None of the victims were found with any money. The killer took it and/or took it back.

Yeesh

Hi Lynn

"And besides the killer stabbed Eddowes and cut her from the waistband twice downwards and once across."

Don't forget that there was one cut going upwards.

Do you mean one cut going up from the waistband ?

Hello David. Thanks.

"How could she buy food and drink without money, please?
If she was hungry and thirsty, she had to find some quickly."

Precisely. And that is why she should have returned home to John at once. She did not.

Cheers.

Why make an easy answer simple, when you can make a simple answer difficult but then again thats Ripperolgy.

Ponders some cockamamie idea she once heard regarding Eddowes' apron piece and how it came to be deposited where it was found.

Chuckles, with irony.

torn

Hello Jon. Thanks.

Yes, it was torn in two places. I presumed that the string had been cut since it was detached. But I suppose the police could have merely removed it by untying.

Best not to presume. Thanks.

trinkets

Hello Mike. Thanks.

"Surely if he thought they had value he would try to cash in on that."

Not necessarily. Please to recall that my lad kept worthless trinkets in a paper and claimed they were "worth no end of money." Yet he never pawned them.

Cheers.

goin' home

Hello David. Thanks.

"How could she buy food and drink without money, please?
If she was hungry and thirsty, she had to find some quickly."

Precisely. And that is why she should have returned home to John at once. She did not.

Hi Lynn

But we DO have the inquest statement. And her pocket had been cut by someone and her belongings searched.

Doesn`t the inquest statement just say her pocket was torn?
