Who cut Eddowes Apron?

[Bridewell]

I've just noticed that, according to The Ultimate, Dc Halse went to Mitre Square in the company of Dc Marriott. Does he get an extra vote as an eye-witness?

I don't understand the rationale either, which is the purpose of this thread. I would dearly love to know what LOGICAL evidence there is, in any form, in any way to even suggest this as a viable scenario. It seems, to me anyway, to fly in the face of even basic common sense. But again, maybe there is something I am missing.

Well I voted conventionally. Don't understand what possible rationale there is to believe otherwise...

So have I. My money is on the red line going round the block before the other two amass two votes between them.

Regards, Bridewell.

I wanted to do a poll because I wanted to find out what people actually thought about the idea that someone other than Eddowes' killer cut and discarded the apron. I have left out the words "Jack the Ripper" to head-off any possibility of discussion as to whether "Jack the Ripper"existed or not, whether he killed her or not, etc. Now I realize there is a logic-impaired lunatic fringe out there who will argue anything against the common perception, just to have the thrill of bucking the crowd, but I truly wanted to know whether there was anyone rational out there who had a coherent argument for the (IMO) completely irrational idea that Eddowes herself cut and discarded the apron.

I have yet to hear a coherent rationale for this belief (and it is my opinion that it is held by only 3-4 people) but I would be interested in the debate nonetheless, if there is in fact someone out there other than the "grass is blue, sky is green" set who holds this belief.
