    Unless Jack the Ripper had a special kinky need for cutting hair he would have no reason for doing so. None of the victims seem to have had their hair cut by the killer.

        The hair was needed to identify the victim though.

          lock of hair

          I've often wondered how true this story, https://www.etsy.com/listing/1247053...-ripper-victim, is regarding George Payne and Edward Badham's grandson.

          The item is a reproduction, but what of the story?

            Not sure what a reproduction is supposed to prove?
            G U T

            There are two ways to be fooled, one is to believe what isn't true, the other is to refuse to believe that which is true.

              The reproduction is not the point, GUT. If the story is true, big IF, about George Payne finding the original lock of hair in Sgt. Edward Badham's belongings, then it would be significant. A reproduction is a copy of the original, as I'm sure you know.

                Yep....
                That's why I refer to her as the Millers Court victim

                  I have a horrible suspicion that the reason that he never cut her hair could be..

                  hair doesn't bleed.

                    Yes I'm sure she'd prefer being referred to as the Millers Court victim rather than her actual name.

                      This definitely rules out Kosminski.
