Hi everybody,
As this is my first post, I would like to say that I'm looking forward to discussing these cases with you. I'm not allowed to vote (yet) however my choice would be James Maybrick.
Greetings,

Addy,
Welcome to the boards!
I cannot vote on this thread as I have no thought on the matter. I would have liked to have seen "Don't know", or "A.N.Other" as an alternative.
I leave this subject to those who know more than I about it.
best wishes

Phil,
I had considered putting that, but someone had to write it. I should have just put and unknown writer. I truly think Anne and Micheal had a hand in it. I think Mike Barrett wrote the manuscript on his Word Processor, since he lacked the basic grammer and spelling skills and had his wife Anne write it. As she had written her book on Florence Maybrick after the fact, it showed she DID have the necissary skills to forge the Diary. However I am lost at how they managed to fool all the scientific tests on the diary.

It must be Dan Brown.
Or Gorguloff.
The final chapter has obviously been written in Patmos.

No one knows who they think wrote the "diary"? Come on now. Vote.

Firstly, I know of nobody connected with the diary saga called Gerald [sic] Kane or Micheal [sic] Barret [sic].
Secondly, what I do know is that nine (sorry, eight) extremely dim posters have voted so far.
I sincerely trust that none of them are among the 600+ who borrowed Ripper Diary - The Inside Story last year from a sample of British libraries across the country. I think I'd lose the will to live if that were the case.
Love,
Caz

Sensible man, Phil!Originally posted by Phil Carter View Post
Ditto. I have absolutely no idea who wrote the thing.
But I do have a fair idea of who absolutely didn't.
Love,
