Hi .
For the record I am not suggesting that Mary Kelly was definitely targeted, only speculating , using hearsay, mixed with what is known.
There is a lot of coincidences, that suggest she may have been sought after far too many to go into here,
The truth is no one has a clue who Jack was, his motive, or his demise.
I have stuck with Casebook for many years, and covered many angles, thoroughly enjoyed it, and hope we all persevere.
Regards Richard.Last edited by richardnunweek; 09-14-2018, 02:54 PM.

"The unfortunate victim is described as being a woman about 25 years of age, 5ft 7in in height, rather stout, with blue eyes, fair complexion, and a very good head of hair."
Mrs Maxwell also calls her "somewhat stout", but Mrs Prater and an un-named source say she was "tall and slim"
Prater lived above mary, knew her well, saw the body in the room, spoke to her a lot. went to her funeral.
added to that the other descriptions of her as attractive and the photos which show not a stout or plump woman.
id go with prater.
forget about Maxwell-just another worthless "witness" that does nothing but muddy the water.Last edited by Abby Normal; 09-14-2018, 02:09 PM.

they did not have patrols,Dorset St in particular,because of the Mayor's show.She was "available".Mary was killed lying down, Phillips:"cause of death, was inflicted while the deceased was lying at the right side of the bedstead and her head and neck in the top right-hand corner. "
Harvey left,Kelly was alone Nov. 7-8 at night.
