Sunny, I was rash in my comments to you. What plagues Ripperology, in my opinion, is the reluctance to use real data and then explore the unknown with it. I think almost everyone here knows that the basic principle of a single serial killer of five has been unprovable. Almost nothing in these cases is actual verified empirical evidence, particularly when it comes to the witnesses. But the legend, or the mythology, persists. We cant prove it, but the contemporary police thought this or that, or this press clipping answers that question with integrity and finality, so we must start with using all the data. Well, we havent moved far past that point and still use some witness claims.. that cannot be validated.. as foundation material. There are no real, trustworthy foundations yet.
George Hutchinson is someone we still cannot identify finally in any records searched for and discovered by those who toil in those fields, bless em. When the best of these researchers have not claimed to have found him, we must wonder whether his story to us is fiction or fact. I cite his time delay as good evidence that his true objective when talking to Abberline that Monday night is not obvious, or clear, but we can say it was not because he wanted to aid the police searching for her brutal murderer. He would have some forward that night, or the next day. Knowing that his supposed clues have time limits on their real value to the case.
She died early Friday morning and he came in on Monday evening. With a story that, if true, it was a huge opportunity to get a sense of her killer, by dress, by manner, and by association. The description, the details are incredible. But even if he did see Astrakan with Mary he had to know that by Monday night that man could be anywhere. Literally. So, What hope might that bring to the investigators? What value did it have after some days simmering on the stove? I submit that his alleged friendly manner with Mary.. alluding to a friendly or acquaintance-like rapport with her, is not why he came in. I think that there is no evidence that might exclude his claiming the role of Sarah Lewis's Wideawake Hat Man as his goal. If that is the real reason he comes in, then why would he do so? As I said, Warrens last official signing was that Pardon for Accomplices on Saturday afternoon. They had never before entertained that idea seriously. Wideawake Hat man gave them that suggestion. And George changed the veneer of that man with his assuming that role at that location on that night. He was now a friend looking out for a friend, just to be sure she was safe, you know.
Maybe now you can see why I run with ideas some times, Im not held back by people like George, or Israel, or Joseph Lawende, or Mrs Long, or Carrie Maxwell, or listen to the contradictory comments from the insiders of the cases, the men running the show. You have to have clean data or its gigo.
Remember, our pal Abberline of Penetrating Gaze, London, also claimed Chapmans story just "dovetailed" for him, after he was executed. He says then that Chapman was the Ripper. Then others say they got him and locked him away, or that they never knew anything tangible, or that it was a conspiracy..a hot potato...
People say lots of things for lots of different reasons. Sorry for the long wind of the truth.
