Where the Hell does this photograph cone from?

Could be Kate, but I think it's a mock up, ever seen it before.

It's certainly possible. The inside of the face, where the exposed skull should be, has a vaguely metallic sheen.

It's really good if it is a mock-up, though.

Here's a thread on another forum citing this photo together with the authentic victim photographs. A cursory reverse image search shows that it's definitely a 'known quantity', as it were, with quite a few sites referencing it as Mary Jane Kelly. Unfortunately, none of those sites are reputable Ripper sites.

Seems strange that it's anti Semitic but uses a word like "goy"

I did a Google image search for "Kosminski", and found this, of all things:



Though it's probably old-hat to most of the experienced Ripperologists here, I've never seen it before. Is it authentic? Evidently it's elsewhere on the Internet, but not on the Casebook.

A warning: the blog it's linked to is virulently anti-Semitic. Here's a taste:

Ghastly shochetim surgical cut on the “goy” cattle beast body of one of the Jew Kosminsky’s hapless victims, used to facilitate examination of the internal organs of the deceased, just as the internal organs of animals offered to Jehovah God were separated by the priests in Israel in ancient times.

Read at your own risk.
