Councidences

[Herlock Sholmes]

Debra Arif unintentionally gave me the idea for this one. Even though we all know that coincidences can occur and that they are often used as fuel for theories, it doesn’t mean that certain coincidences might not have been coincidences in the first place…or they might have been coincidences. So whether they are just coincidences or whether they are coincidences post your ripper-related coincidences and let everyone decide.

From Debra Arif - Fasham Venables, Cutbush's cousin had a wool warehouse at 34 Aldgate High Street. Catherine Eddowes claimed she knew who JTR was and was arrested a few doors away from these premises!.

We have suspect Thomas Hayne Cutbush incarcerated in Broadmoor and, at the time, we had Superintendent Charles Henry Cutbush who became disturbed and committed suicide. Macnaghten and others believed that these were uncle and nephew but they weren’t. There was also another Charles Cutbush who was incarcerated in an asylum in 1908..

The spot where the apron and graffito were found was the previous location of a shop at 56 Goulston Street owned by Hyman Sampson, the man who got Jacob Levy sent to prison.

Joseph Hyam Levy who, along with Lawende and Harris possibly saw the ripper with his victim, was related to ripper suspect Joseph Levy
