Does Graffito writer = Letter Writer?

[Phil H]

Then Cornwall would surely argue that Sickert clearly wrote the GSG - as against Sickert wrote the GSG clearly, which is of course. NOT true.

Hi all,

I was going to add this to the ‘meaning of Graffito’ thread but thought I might be attacked as a thread transmogrifier. Heaven knows we don’t want that! Again, assuming the Graffito to be the work of the murderer of Eddowes, doesn’t this have a direct correlation to the letters? What this indicates is that the ripper is a writer and a taunter. If he is a writer and a taunter, don’t you think he would have also written at least one of the letters? In other words, is it intellectually consistent to believe the Graffito is the work of JTR but not any of the letters? And if he did write at least one of the letters methinks our greatest clues lie there. Commentary please…
