Originally posted by Batman View PostAh, but the stab wounds were the cause of death because of bleeding. So that is why we hear about the stab wounds but what we don't hear so much about is that her head had also sustained impact damageand it appears someone also attacked her private partsShe was also posed sexuallyand had her clothes ripped open not unlike EddowesThe victimology is there also.I think also we should assume she was strangled given her tongue is still popping out even in her morgue photo.The cause of death was given as stabbing and blood loss at her inquest, but there was much more that happened to her which was held back least they offend sensitive ears.Of course after Nichols and when Chapman appeared, they realized they shouldn't be holding things back like this because...... they were connected all along.Kind regards, Sam Flynn

In one of the records on Nichols there is the suggestion she was punched out to explain the bruising on her lower face. They all had trauma similar to this on their faces. It is likely this came about with the force of his hands around their necks in his initial thrust and when he pushed them down. I think Chapman has a thumb grip print on her chin or neck.
What this Tabram to Kelly shows is the evolution of violent blows followed by manual strangulation and stabbing.... to violent throws, neck severing and eviscerations, IMO. He was obviously learning that violent blows and manual strangulation wasn't quick enough. Which as pointed out may have been learned from Emma Smith surviving her attack and such learning applied to Tabram etc.,
It wouldn't surprise me if JtR turned out to be the son of a well-known Lodging house owner.Bona fide canonical and then some.

We might wonder the same about Tabram. Perhaps we should be looking for a murder victim who died from 38 stab-wounds, before that 37 (and so on).
You may, of course, be correct and Tabram was not a JtR victim. But so many coincidences are a stretch.

Originally posted by etenguy View PostThere is evidence that serial killers need more and more stimulus to obtain their satisfaction and hence escalation and change to MO is not unusual. The change in attack following the Tabram murder (assuming the same killer) could easily stem from this. Coupled with all the other similarities between the Tabram and C5 murders, I find it much more difficult to dismiss the possibility that Tabram was a JtR victim than you do.

I also learned again that Mary Anne Poll Connolly knew both Emma Smith and Tabram. Which concerns our hot zone.
Both of these from Wescott's book and he suggests that Connolly made up her story based on reading a journalists mistake and that he suspects she may have also been coerced to make up her story by someone protecting interests in Lodging houses... and possibly the culprit.
That there was much more police corruption than many would care to admit in the historical records of H division... especially H division apparently in 1888.
That a combination of those problems with Whitechapel's wall of silence and lies allowed JtR to get away with it.
It seems magistrates were looking for reasons to close these places down and Smith may have been attacked in one or by someone associated with them, so was forced to lie, maybe.
Anyway, I know Sam responded to this already elsewhere but I want to ask this here...
It concerns the Hot Zone and the victims.
Mary Ann Connelly (Pearly Poll), Irish origin, was giving evidence that she had seen the soldier who was with Martha Tabram the night she was murdered. Connelly may also not be trustworthy and it appears she may have told a whole load of lies. She has a few things going for her and lots against. Here are some points mixed up.
- Her story seems to be fabricated based on misreading a journalists article on the murdered woman (Tabram).
- Her timing conflicts with another witness.
- No one saw her to corroborate her account.
- However a PC Barrett did see two soldiers and spoke to one.
- No one could place Connelly elsewhere.
Could Jack the Ripper have been someone who is trying to locate Mary Ann Connelly? That he doesn't know what she looks like, that he believes she can associate him with both crimes (Connelly knew Smith and Tabram) and he is trying to find her to kill her?

Stride also knew Tabram and maybe the others. I have to read more on that.

Originally posted by Sam Flynn View PostNot playing the clown, just pointing out that blunt head trauma is rather common in cases of murder, or manslaughter for that matter. Although, oddly enough, it isn't a feature of the unequivocal Ripper murders.
In the specific case of Tabram, she was killed on some stone stairs, so it's likely that her killer took advantage of this and banged her head against them, rather than hitting her deliberately with a blunt instrument. It's also possible that her head was damaged as a by-product of falling or being thrown to the floor. We cannot necessarily read this as a signature on her killer's behalf.

Originally posted by Sam Flynn View PostTabram's killer didn't target her private parts, which escaped relatively unscathed. Instead, he targeted the throat, chest and upper abdomen... raining down with vicious stabs. Indeed, whilst Tabram's throat was stabbed NINE times (a huge amount, given the size of the target), it was not cut. There were seventeen stab wounds to the chest (again a huge amount), whereas none of the Ripper victims suffered any stabs to the chest, or any significant stab-wounds elsewhere, for that matter. What happened to Tabram shows a very different "signature" to what we see barely three weeks later with Nichols and her canonical successors.
Nichols had two small stab wounds to her private parts - but the overall attack was directed to other areas.
That does not make all that much of a difference to me. The killer in both cases showed an interest in the private parts and used a knife on them on both occasions. That carries a lot of interest in any serious investigation.

Originally posted by John G View PostThanks Christer.
The earlier Torso crimes might be linked to the latter dismemberment cases, or not. I think it can be argued both ways. However, this is obviously not the thread for an in depth discussion of the dismemberment cases, although I'm still planning a detailed post on the subject (I know I've been saying that since Easter, although I have completed quite a bit of research, so not something I'd forgotten!)
What I would say is that there's no way a single killer removed the uterus from the Whitehall victim, then with Tabram he transforms into a frenzied stabber, before sort of returning to plan A with Nichols or Chapman. That's not an evolution of a crime signature, just random chaos!
In fact, if that's what happened maybe George Chapman was JtR!
And I would not say "no way" in either case.

And she did later marry a violent, mentally unstable man whose family lived very close to Berner Street for decades. A man who led a vagrant lifestyle around Spitalfields and St Geo E and who, as a wood carver no doubt carried sharp implements around with him. Oh, and a large stick with which he liked to whack people who annoyed him.
