  • How Many Victims?

    Who do you believe JTR killed?

    Why?

    Any counter-arguments to your argument?

    Nichols, Chapman, Eddowes - Definitely.
    Tabram and Kelly - Probably.
    Stride - Possibly.
    McKenzie - Weak possibility.

    My estimates are based on match to the Rippers signature and timing. McKenzie would rate higher if she'd been killed on a dark night like the others.

          I think that these victims were killed by the same killer: Nichols, Chapman, Stride, Eddowes and Kelly. It's possible that he killed Tabram and McKenzie. With Tabram even more, cause of such close proximity to other murder sites.

          Btw, I don't understand why some researchers think that Kelly is not the Ripper victim. To me that's just irrational: lust killers are very rare (especially of that kind) and with Spitalfields and Whitechapel (where depsite infamy murder was not that often) to have two of that kind, in the same period of time, is almost impossible. Some think that Kelly was killed by a copycat or someone who was trying to stage it as a Ripper victim (which is, considering her destruction, even more silly). Well, to me Ripper title is even more deserving for the Kelly murderer that any others but you can clearly see similarities to Eddowes killing (mutilation of both abnominal areas and face). The only differences are coming from her being younger and killed indoors. I think it this case the Ockham razor is a good principle. The same goes for Stride.
