The Diary — Old Hoax or New or Not a Hoax at All?​

[Herlock Sholmes]

Or Prosector, quoted by George in the kidney thread.

“In 1888 no-one took out kidneys from living patients. It was only done in the dissecting room or the mortuary."

[Herlock Sholmes]

Or Paul Butler in the Sarah Robertson thread.

"As far as I am aware, no-one besides the diary author had made the connection between "wife" number one, Sarah Anne Robertson and George Smith until very recently. Him and Sarah being first cousins, and who lived at the same house in the East end when James was there.“

[Lombro2]

The most telling think is what the amigos are pointing out—that it was said that Davies saw a copy of the diary of Jack the Ripper.

That can only be for one reason—he was unwilling to say he saw the real thing, because he suspected they were stealing a valuable original artifact and he was an accessory to the crime.

Plausible deniability again. Everything else is cherry-picking.

Or in the New Ideas thread someone called Scott Nelson.

“Did I say no-one else could possibly do it?”

[Herlock Sholmes]

Or Wickerman in an Alice Mackenzie thread.

“You avoided my 2nd point - the Ripper is supposed to have waited 8 months, then murdered McKenzie, but no-one else?”

[Herlock Sholmes]

Or Michael Richards in a Hutchinson thread

“He said no-one knew who the Ripper was, that only certain high ranking officials knew the truth, and a serial poisoner without any evidence linking him to any murders other than the 2 he poisoned and was being executed for, seemed to him to be the Ripper 15 years after the fact.”

[Herlock Sholmes]

Or TAB in the Election thread.

“No-one is disagreeing with this, not a single person.”

[Herlock Sholmes]

And how about……..ME. In the JFK thread in March of 2023

“and I mean no-one could have been that colossally, humongously, earth-shatteringly STUPID.“

And before you make another false accusation…in the quote above I was talking about an imagined group of people plotting to murder JFK and not a poster.

[Scott Nelson]

Don't worry, I'm probably safe. See the influence that Barrat has?
