G'Evening Gents',
Just registered a short time ago, and wanted to introduce myself & say hi to everyone. Like most of you I assume, I have been absolutely fascinated with this case since I was a young boy. I cannot wrap my head around how brutally horrific these murders were/are, and of course the accompanying mindset/lust that drove this man. The "Double Event," as it were, is the part of the case I simply find unbelievable, and I have spent many an evening trying to logically play this out in my head, and attempt to fully grasp just how disturbed this man was.. To be "interrupted" during his first attempt at slaughtering Elizabeth Stride, and not being fully "satisfied," that he risked everything to attack yet ANOTHER woman, Catherine Eddowes, just a few short moments later in such a ridiculously reckless move, I believe speaks to, and sums up, just how depraved and "possessed" this man was - he had NO control, he HAD to do it, and therein lies the fact that there was NO logic. To have such a LUST inside that needed to be filled, regardless of the consequences, simply boggles my mind. If anyone has some great links or articles where I can read more about his "psychological/behavioral profile," I would be much obliged, as any insight as to what was going on in that head of his would be a fantastic read.
Once again all, I look forward to chatting with all of you.
-Cheers
