If the 'Dear Boss' letter is a hoax...

[David Orsam]

Here it is. 2 January 2016, in 'An important discovery' thread:

"The Ripper Letter is using a metaphorical language. It gives the information that the killer will strike on September 30th in "the Minories" were he will kill two women. The Minories was an old parish covering both the murder sites."

There's that "metaphorical language" again. You translated it so well in the Gogmagog letter didn't you Pierre? Definitely worth another attempt at seeing things that aren't there.

The hilarious thing is that you and Steve do not understand what the killer meant.

So it is time that you understand what he was saying.

The Minories was not just a street. It was an ancient parish.

The killer knew this.

What fools the ripperologists are.

You've already mentioned this on the forum Pierre. I was well aware of what you were going to say and hilarious it indeed is.

I look forward to reading your hilarious justification of this statement.

But for now I only wanted you to understand what Steve was saying.

They did.

What killings?

To which twelve words do you refer Pierre?

As for Steve's comment, do you think he might be saying that there were no Ripper murders in the Minories?

And if you have difficulty understanding what is meant by "there were no Ripper murders in the Minories", another way of putting it is that no killings happened there.

They did.

Hi Steve,

Point accepted Jon, and it is a nice coincidence, however Ludwig is not, I feel safe to say, Pierre's man.

In addition, Pierre posted that if the police had extra police surveillance in the Miniories on the night of the double event they may have caught their killer, which is unlikely as no killings happened there that night.

So where these detectives the Jewes who will be blamed for nothing, they were in the wrong place at the wrong time even though they had been warned?

Perhaps the detectives had just been down the Minories when they were told about the murder, forcing Jack and Eddowes to try Mitre Square instead.

[Geddy2112]

Detectives Halse, Outram and Marriott (!!) were situated opposite the Minories when Eddowes was murdered in pursuant to instructions received at the Central office in Old Jewry.

[Abby Normal]

No, my point was that there was some action in the Minories.

And regarding the Minories and the Double Event, the Minories is situated just across the road from Mitre Square.

OK got it. Then I guess maybe your saying Pierres man might have written the letter and/or lived in the minories? If that's the case OK, but then I don't care who pierres man is anymore. and am actually surprised anyone else still does.

John

while there is debate about the connection if any between the two Cutbushes, Charles has always been an interesting man.

High ranking, with serious problems

indeed i have a soft spot for Thomas as an outsider suspect.



Steve

Hi Steve,

Thanks. I agree, Thomas Cutbush in my view is a reasonable suspect, and at one point he would have been one of my favourite suspects.

I did wonder, though, whether Charles Cutbush met the criteria for Pierre's suspect: senior police officer, mental health problems, possibly delusional.

[Elamarna]

Could his man be Charles Cutbush, a senior police officer, whose nephew Thomas was suspected of being the Ripper?

Interestingly, Charles Cutbush committed suicide in 1896, and was rumoured to have suffered from delusions and depression years before his suicide. See: http://casebook.org/ripper_media/boo...s.cutbush.html
