The Whitechapel murders are a series of murders that also includes a torso murder.
Emma Elizabeth Smith, Martha Tabram, Mary Ann Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes, Mary Jane Kelly, Rose Mylett, Alice McKenzie, Frances Coles, and an unknown prostitute. We also have Ada Wilson being attacked before Smith.
That's 11 on the board.
If the Torso is accepted then that opens it up further because there are more body parts and torso's connected to that.
Smith, Tabram and Nichols where the first to be linked by the papers who also tried a link to the torso which the police denied. This connection was been looked into by investigators. Then Chapman happened. Tabram, Nichols and Chapman then got linked with Tabram being forgotten dropped by the press for a Nichols Chapman link.
By 1889 Tabram had been dropped, Mary Ann Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes and Mary Jane Kelly became the C5 as per Bond's suggestion and the murders of Rose Mylett, Alice McKenzie not connected to those murders. Same goes for 1891 with Frances Coles.
In 1987 Martin Fido wrote The Crimes, Detection and Death of Jack the Ripper in which Stride is dropped as a victim and the Goulston Street writing is not connected. This allowed Fido to propose Swanson's identified suspect as Kozminski and then someone like Kozminski called Cohen.
In 1988 the FBI wrote a profile of JtR and accepted the C5.
In 1994 Phillip Sugden wrote The Complete History of Jack the Ripper (1994). While he treated Stride as having for and against, in terms of who did it, he concluded she was and also included Martha Tabram in the C5.
In 2005 Keppel wrote a peer-reviewed forensic paper which accepts the C5 and restored Tabram to a JtR victim (yes restores, as she was connected to Nicholas at the start).
In 2011 Robert House writes Scotland Yards Prime Suspect in which he proposes that Fido's dropping of Stride and the writing is not necessary as Jews call other Jews Lipski and could have also done the graffiti. So he sees no conflict and also says its not needed to invoke Cohen.
I think the trend, through analysis of all the information since 1987 is that Stride is a ripper victim and there is no need to drop her just because someone has a Jewish suspect.
