The ball is in your court I dont need to know the answers. As far as i am concerned Dr Biggs has made it clear that it cannot be proven that

There is a signature to the torsos
That there is evidence of homicides
That there is any connection between The Whitechapel victims and the torsos.

But that is not what we are discussing.

We are discussing whether I can put questions of my own to Biggs, without having them filtered through you.

Why are you changing the subject? Please answere the question. Itīs either "yes, of course you can" or "no, I will not let anyone share information with Biggs".

It is an easy enough thing to answer.

Dr Biggs is a very busy man and we both have a good working relationship. It would not be right to open the door for the world and his brother to keep contacting him with regards to issues that have already been covered. But in your case and that of Debras who have challenged his opinions I have been prepared to ask him clarification questions simlpy to bring these issues to a close.

I have not challenged any opinion offered by Dr Biggs. It is your interpretations of our questions and your interpretations of Dr Biggs answers that i challenge-a completely different thing.
No word on the 'vaginal wall's cartilage' from him yet?

You have the terms accept or reject.

No but my consultant gynaecologist tells me that there is no vaginal wall cartilage as such. So I hope that answers your question.

And I put the exact questions to Dr Biggs as I was asked to do. As to how you or others interpret the answers is a matter for you and them, and that interpretation either proves or disprove what you all personally believe. Obviously if what Dr Biggs says goes against a theory, then I understand it is hard to accept, and then we see other ways looked at to try to keep the theories alive by suggesting what he says is not correct.

I think you should all take note of a term he uses frequently and that is "Anything is possible" and with that term goes the balance of probabilities based on what the evidence is to prove or disprove the respective arguments tendered by those who keep crying murder and serial killer.

I have now closed the book on these torso as I feel that all that has needed to be said, has been said and there is no need to keep going over the same issues time and time again.

For the final time I will say to you the same as I said to Fisherman if there are any question you wish to put to Dr Biggs I will gladly put them to him, and post in full and un edited his replies. I have no hidden agenda with regards to these torso, and i would like no more for all to be able to agree on the same findings but that isn't going to happen

Just e mail them over to me.

Exactly! Yet when several posters told you that you weren't having any of it! It was pretty obvious to everyone except you (as usual) that the author we were discussing had misinterpreted Hebbert's observation on one of the incision descriptions, but even in the face of everyone else's valid observations, you continued to speculate that this non-existant 'incision in the vaginal wall's cartilage' showed a link to abortion or obstetric practices ...and had the gaul to tell the rest of us mere mortals that we shouldn't try and interpret any intent in wound descriptions at the same time!

This is off topic for this thread but seeing as there is some discussion on pathologists going on; I came across this the other day and thought it very interesting as this pathologist (with impressive qualifications too) is saying exactly the same as Hebbert did about observations of how a body dismembered at the joints might point to dismemberment by a butcher:

Essentials of Autopsy Practice Advances, Updates and Emerging Technologies

Chapter 4
The Dismembered Body
Guy N. Rutty and Sarah V. Hainsworth


"Anatomical Sites of Dismemberment

From the authors' experience, it is unusual for the body's limbs to be removed through the joints. Pathologists will know from experience that that to remove an arm or leg through the shoulder or hip joints is not easy. If such a case is encountered, then it is reasonable to consider that the perpetrator has a degree of knowledge of anatomy and/or butchery skills.."

Yes. Anything is possible, Trevor! Please take note because that means we should also consider murder or a series of murders or links to JTR too, which is what some choose to discuss-the murders as a series.

Dismemberment murders were, and still are rare. I have a figure from a reliable source saying there were about 3 a year in the UK between 2003 and 2014. The same is true for the LVP, rare as well. So if we are discussing probabilities-what are the odds that four female bodies aged 21-45, dismembered at the joints and dumped in and around a similar area of the Thames between 87-89 and disarticulated in a way that a modern pathologists considers to be rare, are not related?

But if you have no hidden agenda, then why would you not allow me to put my own questions to Biggs directly?

You see, once you refuse that, it makes it look VERY much as if you DO have a hidden agenda.

What you do is to reserve the right to look throught the questions, alter them at will, allow Biggs to see what you want him to see and to treat the answers from him at will - your will.

If you have no problems whatsoever with me asking the questions I want to ask in the way I want to ask them, then why not let me do it? You still have not produced anything that looks like an even remotely acceptable answer to that question.

Most interesting, Debra. Among other things, this will mean that the dismembered bodies Dr Biggs of Marriott fame have seen, were quite probably not victims who had had their limbs removed at the joints.

That alone says a lot about the validity of his input in the dismemberment issue. That is not to say that Biggs is not a trustworthy source. It is instead to say that no matter how much of an expert you are, when you are underinformed about an errand, you will not be able to make any useful assessment of it.

[Debra A]

The book edited by Guy N. Rutty looks like it contains a lot of information about dismemberment murders . The author talks about 'typical' dismemberment after homicide by removing the head, the legs through the femur(not the joints) etc and he also discusses rarer cases of dismemberment after homicide where the body has been opened up and eviscerated and also one rare case where the skin, subcutaneous tissue and muscle was removed in square and oblong segments. A picture of such a 'segment' is also included.

You should read and digest what you print as that applies to self proclaimed experts like you.

Well, there is no doubt that Guy N. Rutty is duly qualified to comment on this and so his opinion must count for something.

Undoubtedly. He also has the advantage of not having had the material prefiltered by Trevor!

I don't know if you caught my post #30 Fisherman but the picture of the section of skin (also described as a 'segment' (and of course it follows that the description flap or slip would equally fit)) is a clear, roughly square area of skin completely removed from the body-not attached by a sliver or tongue or attached to organs or formed as part of collateral damage...a completely separate portion of skin..
