Jack and the Thames Torso Murders: A New Ripper?

[Fisherman]

If Lechmere is fingered as both the ripper and the torso killer I will not be buying the book because as I've said before Lechmere was a witness and is a terrible suspect.

Good thinking! Why wait to see how such a thing is built under? No, just decide that regardless of the evidence, it MUST be wrong if Lechmere is pointed out as the killer.

Itīs always nice to see an application of unbiased and clear thinking.

Oh do shut up wheat. This thread isnt the place for it.

Shut up yourself.

Thanks El

so I take it Eds book will be that the torso murders and ripper murders were by the same man who is lech?

Abby,

Talking to Ed recently, he says he is working on it, it may just take time I guess, which i fully understand.

Pre-ordered myself a copy. Hope it's well-researched and the next best thing to Ms Arif writing it.

That boat has sailed I think Abby.
I'm a bit dubious about the blurb to this book. I wonder if really we are going to be told about the many violent crimes , domestic and otherwise going n around a bacjdrop of the Ripper and so called torso killer and it being chalked up to media frenzy?!

Sorry for the typos but I can't find my reading glasses at the moment but using + shift I can just about cope.

hi Debs
Thanks-heres hoping that ship sails back! : )

im still wondering also if Fish and or ed stow also have one in the works?
Fish?

I think it is pretty straight forward, having read this on the AdLibris site from where I buy my books:

"With several `Thames torso' killings now attributable to his hand, `Jack' it seems was culpable in upwards of sixteen assaults - at least thirteen of them fatal. Indeed, the study highlights how this individual was amply possessed of the three `cardinals' of the murderer - means, motive and opportunity - and offers long-sought solutions to several case `conundrums' such as the Goulston Street `evidence', the enduring `Mad Doctor' theory and the Pinchin Street `cross-over'."

He makes the call, alright.

thanks Fish
it looks like from the blurb the author/s are going to lay out that they think its by the same hand as the ripper.

I guess the question is-are they going to name and individual?

does anyone know?

[Monty]

I have to say that Drew was very closely guarded about what it would propose at the recent talk?

Steve

It shall be an interesting read, and will lay out some interesting aspects of life in the Victorian era.
