The answer is very simple; he wants the apron halves to be matched together, later - after the half he takes is used to 'sign' the chalked message.
Taking half the apron has no other necessary purpose.
Can you really see Jack waiting until he is in the streets to wipe his hands properly?
Also, any bag would do for the innards - such as a used paper bag, that had contained grapes from Matthew Packer's fruit and veg shop
What if the woman doesn't conveniently have an apron? Surely Jack goes out prepared?
There is over an hour before the apron section will be discovered, and I dont believe any real reason why the killer might not have had someplace in the east end to dump the kidney in spirits. Yes, I think the Lusk sample was from Kate.
Its not inconceivable that by 2am the adjacent streets in that part of the East End were abuzz with the news. He could have heard of it pretty easily I feel.
He goes into where he dumps the organ, cleans up a bit, takes a piece of chalk and the dirtied section of apron with him and heads out to one of the highest concentration of immigrant Jews in the area, the Model Homes off Goulston. I think he is a killer, at least of Kate, but also someone interested in propaganda. Likely Anti-Semitic. That political angle seems to me to take him out of a simple madman wandering the streets, to someone cognizant of the anti immigrant climate in England and in particular that part of it and wanting to take a side in the issue. To vocalize it. Spread the word, as it were.
Also, are you saying this man is definitely not Jewish?
My point for that tangent is that I believe the placement of the apron and the writing combined suggest someone politically motivated, and anarchistic. To incite rebellion, chaos, retribution with the GSG was dangerous. Not just some local Jew hater...the message would have been much clearer if it was...Blame the Jews, for example.
Answer; because you've already decided 'it was the bouncer what done it!'
