So let's get this straight: McKenzie might not be a Ripper victim, and that’s your silver bullet? That’s your glorious counter?
Alright, let's play this poor argument. Alice McKenzie isn't a "provable" Ripper victim. Cool. Guess who else isn't? Ellen Bury!
Not a single soul on Earth is calling her one of the canonical five. Not even in the Bury advocating circles.
So if lack of official Ripper status disqualifies McKenzie’s killer… then congratulations, you’ve just obliterated your own boy. Bury's out. Your logic did it. Not me. I’m just here to sweep the ashes.
So congratulations, you’ve just torpedoed your own suspect with the same logic you tried to fire at mine.
But here’s where it gets delicious:
Murry, McKenzie’s killer, still blows Bury off the map:
He murdered in Whitechapel, where the Ripper acted.
He killed a stranger, not a spouse.
He walked into the night, never caught, never seen again.
And now! He has the one thing Bury never will: credibility as a true Ripper candidate.
Bury? He killed his wife at home, freaked out, and turned himself in like a guilty schoolboy.
So when we strip away all the weak arguments, here’s what we’re left with:
Murry is an actual unknown predator, moving like a ghost in the same streets the Ripper haunted, unseen, uncaught, and unprovable, just like the real Ripper.
Bury is a known man who snapped once, got caught immediately, and has no link to any victim that matters.
Murry still breathes suspicion. Bury chokes on his own mediocrity.
He doesn’t deserve to stand near Murry. He barely deserves a mention.
