Did the Mail on Sunday finally identify who was serial killer Jack the Ripper? The paper had to publish a correction after saying a DNA test conclusively identified the serial killer as Aaron Kosminski. The Mail's July 4 article, "The Ripper's family: Pictures of Victorian respectability, brother and sister of Britain's most notorious killer," claimed "DNA evidence that proved beyond reasonable doubt" Jack the Ripper's identity was Kosminski. The DNA evidence reportedly came from a blood stain on a Jack the Ripper victim's clothing. From there someone identified as an "Expert in analysing genetic evidence from historical crime scenes" said the DNA matched Aaron Kosminski's family and the victim in question, so Jack the Ripper must be Kosminski.
