Favoured Suspect...

I suspect the unidentified man who accosted women in Bethnal Green Road, and was seen outside the Britannia Pub the night Kelly was murdered, is the most likely Ripper suspect.
Some say he had strange eyes, others say he walked with a limp.
He belongs to the middle-class like Druitt, or Neil Cream, not from the lower classes, he will not be found in a lodging house or Work house.
I accept Dr. Bond's profile of the killer.
“The murderer must have been a man of physical strength and of great coolness and daring. There is no evidence that he had an accomplice.....
The murderer in external appearance is quite likely to be a quiet inoffensive looking man probably middleaged and neatly and respectably dressed. I think he must be in the habit of wearing a cloak or overcoat or he could hardly have escaped notice in the streets if the blood on his hands or clothes were visible.
…..he would probably be solitary and eccentric in his habits, also he is most likely to be a man without regular occupation, but with some small income or pension. He is possibly living among respectable person's who have some knowledge of his character and habits and who may have grounds for suspicion that he is not quite right in his mind at times.”
