What's your profile for Jack?

[Errata]

Hi Mr Watson

There was no money found in close proximity to Chapman my freind.

Regarding Polly Nichols, as Mr Cates implies not all prostitutes demanded their money up front. Besides, who's to say Jack did not go through Polly Nichols pockets and retrieve the money he had given her?

Point of payment for prostitutes depends on what tier they are. Streetwalkers get paid up front. They have to. They have no protection if someone decides not to pay. Call girls and High price prostitutes get paid after, (cash on the nightstand) because a: its a quality assurance measure, and b: they are indoors, and have more control over the situation.

No problem. Tennessee eh! I'll bet Davy Crockett partook of a little tipple with his brekkie. HaHa

[Digalittledeeperwatson]

Ha ha

Thanks. I knew I remembered that from something. And nothing wrong with a drink in the morning. So long as you aren't going anywhere. To be fair, this is the first time I've had alcohol with breakfast since I was sixteen. And it was sans the breakfast back then.

[Observer]

Alcohol at breakfast. Oh dear.

You've probably read at some point that two polished farthings were found at the Chapman scene. This appears to have been a myth.

[Digalittledeeperwatson]

Wow.

The morning is unkind to my memory. The two beers I had with breakfast prob had nothing to do with. What the hell am I thinking of then?

Hullo Observer

Okay, but wasn't money found left in close proximity of Chapman's body? And what of Nichols?

[Observer]

Hello Colin. Thanks.

"Prostitute? Payment in advance - always."

No, not always.

But, for the sake of argument, let's suppose so. Then where is the dinero?

Cheers.

Back in Jacks pocket. This is one of the reasons he opted to rifle Kate Eddowes pocket's. In fact the very same method he employed during the assault and murder of Annie Chapman.

[lynn cates]

Och!

Hello Errata. Thanks.

"Lynn is referring to a suggestion I made that dropping coins on the ground would successfully distract Eddowes from paying attention to a kerchief about to be tightened around the throat or jaw.

Which it would be. I have no idea if that happened, but money is always a fairly powerful distraction. Even if she wasn't soliciting."

So, the suggestion is that he may have thrown away money as a distraction? In which case we can rule out Bury. Wasn't he a Scot? (heh-heh)

Cheers.

Oh

And Hullo Errata. Long-time listener. First-time caller.

[Digalittledeeperwatson]

Ha Ha!

Okay. Thought I was slippin'. Reviewed Eddowes possessions. I blame fatigue.

[Errata]

Coins? I might be daft today.

[Digalittledeeperwatson]

Sorry

Hello DLDW. Thanks.

Discussion instead of transaction? OK. But whence the coins?

Cheers.
