You also seem quite sure that everything happened by chance. Lets discuss Eddowes for a minute. One minute she's in police custody and the next minute she's dead.
What are the odds of a woman being released from a jail cell then abducted and killed minutes later by the ripper? A few questions arise. Judging by witness statements, there was a large police presence in that location. Several officers walked in and around Mitre square on their beat, there were at least four policemen in that location that I know of in and around the time of the body discovery including an off duty officer. Who in their right mind would choose a place crawling with police?
The question then arises did she acually get released from police custody at all. No one spoke with Eddowes after her release at 1am.
It all boils down to whether you trust the police and the statements they made because they are the only people that surround her death. That's a fact.
Why did she tell the duty officer her name was Mary Kelly?
Did she know something was wrong and tried to lie herself out of it?
Let's just run an hypothetical by you. Lets just say the ripper had a police uniform for some reason. Lets just say Eddowes is released at 1am as per the police statement. How easy would it be for the killer to entice Eddowes into any situation he required of her? How easy would that be?
How much sense would that make for all the rest of them too? Someone you trust with your life who will take your life.
In the dark, a deer stalker could quite easily be mistaken for a bobby's helmet. You'd just get the dome shape.
