Brian has written an engaging account of going to RipperCon in Baltimore. Here's a sample:

Baltimore, Baseball and Boogeymen: My trip to RipperCon, Jack the Ripper–True Crime Conference, April 8–10
By Brian Young

“Oh really… A Jack the Ripper conference….how…..interesting.” Those were last words said to me by the woman sitting next to me on the plane the entire way to Baltimore. But I didn’t mind. I was excited to be on my way from Buffalo, New York, to my very first Ripper conference! Besides, I was used to that reaction, as I’m sure we all are, when our interest in Jack the Ripper comes up.

For those of you who may think RipperCon would be nothing more than “all you ever needed to know about Jack but were afraid to ask” I’m here to set the record straight. Sure you will get your fix of the Ripper, but there was much more to it than that.…

Watch for Brian Young's entire report on RipperCon upcoming in the June issue of the Whitechapel Journal!

P.S...with regard to the Michael Hawley talk....gotta love the shout out to Tonawanda that Mike gave....always nice to have your birth town mentioned in a lecture, especially when it's so small it's almost invisible....for those who may not know, Tonawanda is where the Erie canal ends....not Buffalo like in the song....quaint little city on the Erie Canal and the mighty Niagara River...should really post some pictures of the end of the canal...maybe next time I am there I will take some.

Hello Jonathan...

As someone who was at the conference I would also like to thank you for the Bang-Up job you are doing....the sound is amazing (also a HUGE thanks to Robert Anderson for recording everything!!!)...

It's great to re-listen to these talks, to really take in more info...especially the Saturday talks as my brain still may have been swimming in Vodka Gimlets from Friday night (yes Chris..Robert, Rob, Mike, Martin, et al...you know what I mean ��)....only wish you could have been there Jonathan, you would have had a blast!! As would all of you reading this I'm sure.

Hi Jonathan,

many thanks for all the great work in getting these talks online for those of us who were unable to be there.

And a general thanks for all the podcasts

Steve

Hi Jonathan

As co-organizer of RipperCon I also want to mention again how much we appreciate your fine work on bringing our talks to a wider public. Also in regard to Mike's talk, I was amazed at the clarity of the sound. Impressive. Keep up the good work!

Cheers

Chris

There were 10 talks and 3 panel discussions at Baltimore which ALL deserve to be heard and promoted, which is why there is a one week gap between each talk. You are entitled to your opinion (that everything other than the LISK talk puts you to sleep, and you may be dead before you hear the only talk you are interested in) but truthfully such unappreciative comments do not encourage me to rush out and release the LISK talk only so it pleases RockySullivan.

Next up will be the Suspect Panel Discussion with Martin Fido, Robert Anderson and Michael Hawley.

Stay Tuned,

JM

It was joke, it's only been 2 or 3 weeks. Yes I've been waiting for the LISK talk to be posted in hopes that might shed new light on a case that is very dark. I probably don't need to hold my breath but all the same I am just in case there is one little missing piece of the puzzle in there somewhere
