Double Event: Fact or Fiction?

[Patrick S]

There was and yes they were. He had planned exactly this night for the double event and the reason for that was an event in his own life. All these murders were planned. He didnīt mutilate Stride because he needed to find the second victim without blood on him.

I donīt know if Lewende saw the killer.

He did write the graffito in Goulston Street and I know what he wanted to say with that. It is part of an important pattern connected to him.

If I might say so, Pierre...it certainly doesn't sound as if your research is still unfinished and that you are hoping you are wrong. Seems as if you've made up your mind, filled in the details, and grasped the master plan.

I go back and forth, but I lean toward no. Actually, I think the proximity counts against it: he couldn't have known that Eddowes would be in Mitre square, and high-tailed it there to meet her.

The question is were Stride & Eddowes victims of JTR? Not that JTR PLANNED to kill Eddowes after Stride. He could've happened upon Eddowes on his getaway from Berner St, or he might've gone prowling for another prostitute. It's not as if Whitechapel was short on ladies of the night.

He didnīt happen upon people. They happened upon him.

But he didnīt continue in Whitechapel. He went over the border into the City territory.

Says who?

Let's not split hairs.

Hello Pierre. Make mine:

No, no and no.

Difficult to say, as there are arguments both ways. I'll say maybe, or maybe not.

[SirJohnFalstaff]

Yes. Jack killed both

Not sure. If the woman was indeed Eddowes, yes. Not sure Lawende saw Eddowes.

No. The graffiti was already there.
