        He was in jail during the Mary Kelly murder so if one believes her to be a victim, then it rules him out. The jail report is courtesy of Wickerman.

          A violin-playing thief (not that he played it while stealing, which would be a case of "robbery with violins" ) who was known to wear an astrakhan-trimmed coat.

              Apparently of all the instruments he collected, he couldn't play any of them.

                And if you don’t believe her to be a victim, the Astrakhan coat means nothing.

                And if you don’t believe Hutch’s description was true or accurate what else is there against the poor bloke.

                There are two ways to be fooled, one is to believe what isn't true, the other is to refuse to believe that which is true.

                  Maybe he was Jewish.
