The cross/lechmere theory - a newbie's thoughts

[Geddy2112]

No, I didn't say Paul cannot be Jack the Ripper.

Then I'm not sure what you are saying then unless you mean Paul is less suspicious than Cross...

[The Baron]

You stated 'Did you spotted Paul alone near a freshly killed woman?!' in relation to Paul can't be JtR because he was not spotted near a freshly killed woman. I used the Peter Sutcliffe example to point out that not all killers are spotted next to a freshly killed victims.

What has Sutcliffe to do with a comparison between Cross the ripper vs Paul the ripper ?!

Was Peter Sutcliffe spotted alone near a freshly killed woman? One example, no doubt 100s of others.

Imagine a guy killing in the morning, and then seeking out the press in the afternoon to declare he was a witness!

You mean inserting themselves into the investigation ala Ian Huntley and many other killers...

[Geddy2112]

Just a hypothesis of course.


Thoughts?

Great post, thanks. Only issue I have with that is the point Cross says he never saw/heard anyone else. However that does not rule out your theory as the Ripper might have had rubber soled shoes, the Ripper was on alert, Cross was not so the Ripper might have seen/heard Cross prior to Cross doing so vice versa. After all that is, I assume what most people who discount Cross believe what happened - maybe apart from the second visit of the Ripper.

Irrelevant.

You could at least try to raise the standard a little Baron.

[Herlock Sholmes]

People that kill their wives don't usually turn out to be serial killers

People That commit suicide don't usually turn out to be serial killers.

But certain people already support those kind of 'suspects'



The Baron

Not worth a comment.

[Herlock Sholmes]

Why should I, the Police at the time already did.

And please don't look at Kosminski.


The Baron

The police didn’t place Kosminski at the scene of any of the murder sites as you well know. And I’ll keep on mentioning Kosminski until you stop applying different criteria for different suspects. If it goes for Cross it goes for Kosminski. You MUST feel that Cross is a better suspect than Kosminski. If you don’t then what you’ve said about Cross is nonsense.

People that find bodies never turn out to be the killer.

Paul is a poor suspect but he acts more suspiciously than Cross does.

You favour Kosminski…..place him at any of the murder sites and we promise to look at him.

Paul the ripper was almost always an attempt to undermine the Lechmere theory, I agree that the case against Paul the talkative and attention seeker is very lean.

[Herlock Sholmes]

See, you are getting it lastly, it was not that difficult was it..

Now go put Bury at any of the murder's spots and we promise to look at him for you.

If you can’t then Cross is a better suspect than Kosminski. According to you.
