    Well I can tell you one thing for certain, removing a head, using only a knife, requires a degree of skill. No knife, no matter how sharp it is, will cut through bone, you have to find a joint, and even then it is very difficult. For the first two years of my working life I was apprenticed in a Butchers, old style, in an open air market in Liverpool. I think that trying to take off the head became a part of his ritual....maybe that failure resulted in the damage to Kate & Marys faces.

    Sox,

    I once believed that Jack tried to remove the head.

    I no longer believe so for if he wanted to decapitate them he would have.

    He only cut once, no sawing action.

Let the world without go as it may; let kingdoms rise and fall, so long as he has the wherewithal to pay his bills, he is, for the time being, the very monarch of all he surveys. The arm chair in his throne; the poker his sceptre, and the little parlour of some twelve feet square, his undisputed empire. "

    • separation

      Hello Corey. You see, you are presupposing something. Who is "it"? Jack?

      The Fenians/Socialists are involved, to my mind ONLY in C3-C5. That's why I insist on separating canonicals. It's entirely possible that some crazed sex killer (since you like that scenario) killed Polly and Annie. Plenty of suspects. Choose whomever you like. He was caught and put away. SY would likely not even know that they had gotten him. They might still think a killer is on the loose.

      But this says NOTHING about C3-C5, which is a whole, different game.

      • Hi Lynn,

        Chapman and Kelly were ripped up in the same distinctive manner.

          Hello DVV. Thanks.

          At the end of the day, I think you will be pleased at my point of view, for I think there is a good bit of evidence that places Fleming as the killer of C5 and possibly C4.

          Have faith.

There is nothing in the post mortem to suggest she was strangled & if we believe Schwartz then her earlier assailant could have 'tried to pull the woman into the street' by her scarf no?
            I cant believe I have to address a counter argument that could have been prevented by reading Inquest transcripts....as I suggested in the first place...

            From Blackwell...."The deceased had round her neck a check silk scarf, the bow of which was turned to the left and pulled very tight. In the neck there was a long incision which exactly corresponded with the lower border of the scarf. The border was slightly frayed, as if by a sharp knife. The incision in the neck commenced on the left side, 2 inches below the angle of the jaw, and almost in a direct line with it, nearly severing the vessels on that side, cutting the windpipe completely in two, and terminating on the opposite side 1 inch below the angle of the right jaw, but without severing the vessels on that side."

            and Blackwell again...

            "I formed the opinion that the murderer probably caught hold of the silk scarf, which was tight and knotted, and pulled the deceased backwards, cutting her throat in that way. The throat might have been cut as she was falling, or when she was on the ground. The blood would have spurted about if the act had been committed while she was standing up. "

            By putting 1 and 2 together you should see that by grabbing a scarf and twisting it from behind the killer "chokes" the victim, its not rocket science.

            You can add that Phillips also saw no similarity with the skill and knowledge he observed in the first 2 murders.

            There is no debate...she was grabbed by her scarf, it was twisted....which closes her airway....just like "choking".

            Best regards

            • Mike,

              Sorry, but in the inquest I dont see where it actualy says she was choked, your arguements are based on your opinions. Just because a scarf was tight doesnt mean she was choked first.

              again, good try.

                Hi Lynn,

                stop teasing.
                Can't wait longer.
                Can't believe C4 and C5 have been killed by the same hand.
                That will be a revelation - let alone the possible implication of bad man Joe.

                    Hello DVV. No teasing. Fleming could have been just the man to have done such a job. (Notice I say, job.)

                    Of course, the sources must be referenced, etc. Slow and steady . . . as they say.

                      Put a scarf around your neck and have someone twist it tightly from behind you and pull on it....if youre not choking at that point you win your argument.

                        Hi Corey,

                        Phil has wisely opened a thread who imo should be (partly) Fleming-related ("The signatures...a reason ?").

                        • I may choke but not to death, The scarf was pulled, though how tight is never said so we cannot say she was sufficated.

                            • doctors' testimony

                              Hi everyone,

                              Someone early in this thread suggested that it might not need to be started but it took on wings anyway, didn't it?

                              I will not direct quote here because the testimony is easy to find but it might be noted that Phillips and Blackwell initially had different theories on how Liz was overpowered- Blackwell believing that her scarf was grabbed and Phillips thought her shoulders were grabbed - so take your pick. Just like we are today, they seemed to be confused about the cachous.

                              I don't believe either Dr. implyed that she was choked- at least like the previous 3 victims- but if it was used to pull her back she probably was unable to scream . I think Phillips thought that the scarf may have been pulled after she was on the ground to gain access to the throat. Either way she probably was unable to breath or cry out. They both agreed that it was the cut, not asphixiation, that caused death.

                              The problem with Liz's case is we have conflicting testimonies of witnesses as far as who she was seen with, timings, and method of attack- which unsolved cases usually have. Anyone can pick what they want, discard others and come to their own conclusions.

                              One thing to consider is that she had a little mud on the right side of her jacket and alot on the left and it was matted in her hair. As I've stated before. I think not being intoxicated as the other canonicals were may have meant that she proved to be a handful for her murderer( whoever he was).

                              Best Wishes,
                              Hunter
                              Best Wishes,

                                "They both agreed that it was the cut, not asph[y]xiation, that caused death."

                                I think everyone agrees to this. You cannot kill by strangling with a 2 second procedure. Of course, her air would be shut off for a second or two.
