Another nail in the Lechmere coffin?

[Sam Flynn]

Thanks, Hill. Don't worry, I used to be under the same impression myself.

Oh OK thanks Sam. Its amazing how just one word can change somethings meaning, thought or idea so drastically. Just without the word "new" changes the perspective. I always imagined it was a new bonnet she had aquired somehow after watching some of the doccumentries etc.

[Sam Flynn]

Re Polly's bonnet, the word "new" seems to have crept into the mythos over the years. Contemporary accounts only have her saying "see what a jolly bonnet I've got now". It could have been borrowed, found or stolen. It could have been second-hand. It might even have been a bonnet Polly already owned but which she hadn't been seen wearing before, or hadn't worn often.

However the bonnet came into her possession, it evidently wasn't "brand new" - indeed, it was described as battered and rusty in some newspaper reports.

Just out of curiosity, is there any way of finding out as to where Polly Nicholls got her bonnet? I was just wondering how she was able to afford a new bonnet. What if...just maybe, Jack the ripper bought her the bonnet. This would have allowed Jack to gain some level of trust as well as her affections. Maybe enough trust for her to agree to meet up with him again later near Bucks Row say? He may have also asked her to keep it a secret. If Lichmere was the killer he would have had to arrange for a meet up time with her that suited him and with his walk to work.

So he could have left earlier for work on this occasion in order to fit this in. Upon meeting up with Polly outside of Bucks Row( Bucks Row was apparently dangerous and notorious for attacks so cant imagine her wondering down there on her own) he then walked back into Bucks Row with her and killed her.

Also, Lichmere and Paul had never ever met before Nichols murder, even though their routes to work join up through Bucks row. How come? These men would have regularly been using the same route to get to work. If Lichmere had left for work every day at the same kind of time as he said he did when finding Nichols, you would think he would have bumped into Paul at least once or twice before this incident. So if Lechmere's times are to be believed, his and Paul's time's seperate them by amount a minute or so. So for example one of the mornings to work Lechmere gets cramp in his leg, or trips up, or forgets something and has to pop back for it etc this would have delayed his journey a minute or so thus making his time almost equal to that of Paul's.

However if his normal and regular time of leaving for work was slightly later, it would make sense as to why he's never met Paul before.

?

That really is so funny.

Posts making medical claims.
No evidence provided to back the suggestion made, refuse to address the issue when its raised and think anyone believes any of it.

I would like to add another nail in Lechmere's coffin, but this time it will be the heaviest!

If the bleeding evidence shows that the killing must have happened in about 3-7 minutes, I am afraid, this period is too much for me!

Does that mean if it's 3-7 minutes until Neil arrives it devalues the case?
Or does it mean you do not accept it?


If the later, there is a need to give a fact based alternative arrival time for Neil arriving

It needs to explain how he misses seeing and being seen by either Carman and including the speed we know the Police walked at.

You must also allow for the cut to the throat, and or abdomen, the encounter between the Carmen and their examination of Nichols.


It's that simple

He says he detected what he thought was like the movement of breathing, not escaping air. The body could have been slightly moving for reasons other than breathing, particularly given that Nichols was being touched by the men who found her, and her clothing was in the process of being rearranged.

Again and like always in the case of Lechmere, there are only those desperate trials to find another explanations to the damn mess anti-Lechmerians are in.

Good points.

I have the breathing evidence!!!

In the inquest, Robert Paul said:




This phrase alone incriminates Lechmere!

Since the Endotracheal of the victim was recently severed, and still there was a trace of air movement because of the altered pressure in her chest. that means she couldn't have been killed more than a couple of minutes before!

Interesting statements what is this breathing evidence.?
Just repeating a sound bite does not make a case,

What is the medical information or professional medical opinion you are basing this few minutes on? You must have such to make the point you suggest viable.
If it is just guess it is worthless.

Altered pressure? A cut trachaea is not the same as a puncture to the lung, i assume you realise that ?

Still, carry on with posting this way it convinces no one.
I will continue to respond to posts that suggest ideas with no supporting data or post which are factually inaccurate.

The clothes were disarranged, and I helped to pull them down. Before I did so I detected a slight movement as of breathing, but very faint

Hi Fisherman,

When its complete it will feel confident to say a few things as probabilities.

At present they are only possibilities.

Yes I agree with Payne-James more or less.

Its certainly premature to post any firm conclusions at present.

Steve

I realize that. You just take your time. IŽll be ready whenever you are.

[Elamarna]

I donŽt think Jason Payne-James nourished any particular "wish" to have Lechmere placed at the murder site at the relevant time for having been the killer - I think his experience told him that this was the likeliest scenario.

He also allowed for another solution, since the truth does not always follow medical advice.

So basically what you are saying here is the same as Payne-James said: Lechmere is a logical fit, but it may have been somebody else - who would then be less logical but still viable.

IŽll be interested to see what you come up with.

These hint that Lechmere is certainly in the area of the killing within a timescale that allows him to be considered as a candidate for the killer; he MAY not however be quite as close some wish to think.
