Hello all,
The first book that was published with a name attached to a suspect for the Whitechapel murders was self published by the author before the end of 1888. In it, the case for Vasiliev as Jack is laid out.
Seems to me that something this close in time to the actual investigations might have some valuable insights, and since to this day no-one has discovered where exactly he was, having been seen heading for London after his release from prison in France in early 1888....(for murdering prostitutes with a knife no less)....he should be considered one of the primary suspects at least.
Funny though that the memorandum defers to someone who was incarcerated at the time of the murders and someone who happened to commit suicide after Marys murder, along with the traditional drooling homeless maniac many have chosen to adopt as their own Jack. None of the three have the same pedigree for these cases like Vasiliev, in fact none of the three mentioned had any history with knives and prostitutes.
How did the first suspect become apparently non-viable within 6 months?
