Stride Poll 2

[barnflatwyngarde]

Just voted, I am firmly of the belief it happened , and BS man was the killer, and JTR.
I have constantly commented over the years, more so recently on FB, that people don't seem to want BS man to be her killer, or her killer isn't JTR, ( because if the killer is seen in the act, and it is JTR , they would rather not follow where that inevitably leads).

So many argue that BS man killed Liz, but he wasn't JTR, or that someone else came along afterwards and killed her.

I agree Steve.

I personally think that BS man was probably the same "short stout man" seen entering Millers Court with Mary Jane Kelly.

Hi Steve,

Where do you think that leads that people don't to follow? It would mean that either James Brown was wrong about seeing Stride or that he saw her prior to the Schwartz incident, but I don't think that would be that much of a problem for most people.

Great poll.

I have now voted.

The incident didn't occur and the Ripper killed Stride.


But it was a close one.


I nearly voted for the killer having been Mortimer, who saw Stride go into the yard from her door.
Stride had flirted with her poorly husband earlier, and Mortimer just flipped. She took a kitchen knife, slipped into the alleyway, and then cut her throat. She then walked back indoors and tended to her husband (who incidentally died not long after the murder; relatively speaking)

Mortimer then makes up a **** and ball story about being on her doorstep for half an hour, a story about a couple speaking to her about them standing on the corner, hearing a policeman walk past with a measured tramp, and seeing a random man walk past with a black bag.

Don't fall for it

She was a ruthless stone cold killer.


I blame Fanny.


For pretty much everything

Im with el and lewis. I voted bs man was her killer and jtr. The final straw for me is the peaked cap, of course.

Hi great poll. I went for three, which I think is different to your last poll when I thought she wasn't a Ripper victim. Although having said that its hard to reconcile her being attacked so quickly after the first incident. It is strange that this is the murder with the most eye witnesses and we still can't decide if she was a Ripper victim. If I think about much longer will want to change vote.
