rational murderers

Hello Spyglass. Good topic for a thread.

I agree it was not a good place for a murder and that no rational murderer would select that place to do his victim.

Likewise, I don't think a rational murderer would talk loudly with his victim just before going into the back yard to kill her, as was done in Hanbury st.

Of course, no law says murderers must be rational.

Cheers.

Hi all,
Having just purchased and enjoyed the book CSI Whitechapel, the CGI crime scene pictures are fantastic. But I couldnt help noticing that the Bucks Row murder spot seems to be very well lit with the street lamp on the other side lighting up the actual spot where nichols was found. Ok, perfect for a murderer to see what he was doing but not perfect if you dont want to be seen. This seems to be in complete contrast to the spots in Hanbury Street and Mitre Sq.

Surely this would again raise the often asked question " was Nichols murdered where she was found "? As this picture shows it wasnt a good or safe place to commit murder...but a good place for a body to be seen and found.

Cheers.
