The Double Event
Unless I'm mistaken I am the first to chime in on the anniversary of the infamous murders of Elizabeth Stride and Catherine Eddowes which took place exactly 120 years ago tonight (about three and a half hours from now English time as I write this). Having just returned recently from a trip over there on which I visited all the Jack the Ripper sites, I took special note of how both crime scenes now have childrens' playgrounds on them to wash away some (but not all) of the unkind memories. Just thought I'd open up the forum for any and all thoughts on the Double Event on this special day. Did Jack really commit both crimes? How long did it take him to get to Mitre Square from Berner Street? (It took me 14 minutes.) And all the other assorted questions.Tags: None
