En el otoño de 1888, el distrito de Whitechapel en el este Londres se convirtió en el escenario de uno de los grandes misterios de la historia del crimen: los asesinatos atribuidos a Jack el Destripador. Este asesino en serie, cuya identidad nunca llegó a confirmarse, trajo de cabeza durante meses a la policía londinense y su enigmática estampa se apoderó de la prensa y la cultura popular. La serie de crímenes comenzó en agosto de 1888 con el asesinato de Mary Ann Nichols. El cadáver de Nichols fue encontrado en la madrugada del 31 de agosto con un profundo corte en la garganta y múltiples heridas en el abdomen. Sólo una semana después, el 8 de septiembre, apareció el cuerpo de Annie Chapman en un patio de Hanbury Street con heridas similares. La brutalidad de estos dos crímenes y el hecho de que estuviesen separados por sólo unos días desataron el pánico en toda la ciudad. Pero no había acabado ahí. El 30 de septiembre, en lo que se conoce como el "doble evento", fueron asesinadas Elizabeth Stride y Catherine Eddowes. Stride fue encontrada en Berner Street, y Eddowes en Mitre Square, en el centro de la City de Londres. La primera sufrió sólo un corte en la garganta, mientras que la segunda fue parcialmente descuartizada. La policía sospechó que alguien apareció en la escena del crimen en Berner Street, lo que obligó al asesino a salir huyendo y buscar una nueva víctima cambiando de vecindario para que no siguiesen sus pasos. La precisión de los cortes hizo barajar a los inspectores que se trataba de alguien con conocimientos anatómicos, quizá un cirujano o un carnicero. Pero aún faltaba un crimen, acaso el peor de todos. El 9 de noviembre los restos de Mary Jane Kelly fueron encontrados en una pensión de Spitalfields. A diferencia de los anteriores, el asesinato se produjo en una estancia cerrada. Eso dio al asesino mucho más tiempo para emplearse con su víctima. Tendido sobre un camastro, el cuerpo de Kelly estaba completamente mutilado y su rostro era completamente irreconocible. Pero lo que hizo de este criminal algo realmente especial no sólo fue la brutalidad de los crímenes tras los que no se escondían los móviles habituales como el robo o la violación, sino que presuntamente dio la cara a través de una serie de cartas dirigidas a los periódicos y la policía. Fue él quien se bautizo a sí mismo como Jack el Destripador en la más célebre de estas cartas. Se la conoce por su encabezado “querido jefe” y fue recibida por la Agencia Central de Noticias el 27 de septiembre. La siguiente sería aún más macabra ya que decía estar escrita desde el mismísimo infierno. No se sabe a ciencia cierta si estas cartas eran auténticas, pero contribuyeron a la leyenda del asesino. La policía intentó sin éxito atrapar al responsable de estos crímenes durante meses, pero no lo consiguió. Se propusieron varias teorías sobre su identidad. Se habló de médicos y hasta de miembros de la realeza, pero ninguna ha sido probada de forma concluyente. El caso, por lo tanto, sigue abierto. Los crímenes de Whitechapel tuvieron un gran impacto en la sociedad victoriana. Destaparon las condiciones de pobreza y privación que se vivían en los barrios bajos de Londres. Eso trajo en los años siguientes reformas sociales y urbanísticas. Su influencia en la prensa y la literatura fue aún mayor. Con Jack el Destripador nació un género periodístico e inspiró a novelistas como Arthur Conan Doyle, que alumbró a Sherlock Holmes en la misma época en la que se produjeron estos crímenes.

The haunting tale of Jack the Ripper, join the boys as they take you back to the dark, mist-shrouded streets of Whitechapel, England, in the late 1800s. In this first installment, they set the stage for one of the most chilling and enduring mysteries in history, exploring the harsh realities of life in East London, where poverty, crime, and desperation ruled the streets. Amid the flickering glow of gas lamps and the ever-present fog, Whitechapel was a place where people struggled to survive, living in overcrowded slums and doss-houses, with danger lurking around every corner. The story unfolds against this bleak backdrop, where the Ripper's reign of terror began. The boys delve deep into the details of the five confirmed murders that sent shockwaves through the community: Mary Ann Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes, and Mary Jane Kelly. Each woman's life and brutal death are recounted with vivid detail, highlighting the terror that gripped the streets of Whitechapel. The victims, all vulnerable women, faced unimaginable horror as the Ripper struck in the dead of night, vanishing into the shadows without leaving a trace. As the gruesome murders unfolded, fear spread like wildfire, and the press sensationalized the killings, giving rise to the infamous name that would haunt history. The boys paint a vivid picture of the investigations that ensued, as well as the rising hysteria among Whitechapel's residents. Policemen patrolled the cobblestone streets, vigilantes took up arms, and citizens whispered about the monster that seemed to be watching them from the dark. Through historical records, they bring to life the gripping sense of dread and the public's desperate need for answers. The mystery of the Ripper's identity became an obsession, with countless theories swirling about who this sadistic killer could be. In this first part, you'll explore how Jack the Ripper's legacy of fear and intrigue became etched into history. The boys' storytelling invites you into a world of unsolved crime, where the figure of the Ripper still looms large over London's past, a ghostly reminder of the brutality and horror that once held Whitechapel in a deathly grip.

For the Three Ravens 2024 Halloween Special we've pulled out all the stops and are talking about the most infamous serial killer in history, Jack The Ripper!Part of the "Something Wicked" series about true crimes with folkloric twists, we start by chatting through what London was like in 1888, including the boom in crime fiction that had culminated in the creation of Sherlock Holmes, the city's 58 daily newspapers, and the horrendous wealth divide between the Victorian rich and poor.Then it's onto the Whitechapel Murders themselves, including some extremely distressing details and fringe cases, such as the grisly deaths of Martha Tabram and Emma Smith which predated the so-called 'Canonical Five' Ripper victims.We also detail the lives of the women who were slain, as well as the awful ways in which they died, discussing what Mary Ann Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes and Mary Jane Kelly had in common, the escalating nature of their killer's crimes, and how exactly the police responded to the challenges the case presented.From the 'Dear Boss' and 'From Hell' letters to the methods Scotland Yard and the Metropolitan Police used to try and catch the killer, the case's links to antisemitism and the Freemasons, to details of the lead suspects and subsequent theories of the crimes which have developed across the 20th and 21st centuries, it's a wild and horrifying ride.At almost exactly two hours long, we've done our best in this episode to do the topic justice, and no doubt it is a dark and deeply disturbing journey. But, as Haunting Season 2024 winds to a close, it's hard to imagine a much murkier true crime to chronicle as we head into the dark of winter...The Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays (Magic and Medicines about folk remedies and arcane spells, Three Ravens Bestiary about cryptids and mythical creatures, Dying Arts about endangered heritage crafts, and Something Wicked about folkloric true crime from across history) plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.With a range of exclusive content on Patreon, too, including audio ghost tours, the Three Ravens Newsletter, and monthly Three Ravens Film Club episodes about folk horror films from across the decades, why not join us around the campfire and listen in?Learn more at www.threeravenspodcast.com, join our Patreon at www.patreon.com/threeravenspodcast, and find links to our social media channels here: https://linktr.ee/threeravenspodcast Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

I welcome true crime writer, researcher and analyst Sarah Bax Horton to the show in this interview episode to discuss her new book 'Arm of Eve: Investigating the Thames Torso Killer'.Jack the Ripper is often called the world's most notorious unidentified killer, but he was not the first modern serial killer on the streets of London. Before him was another murderer who hunted from the River Thames – one arguably more sadistic and mercurial.The Thames Torso Killer has always lurked in the Ripper's shadow, despite the fact he murdered and dismembered at least four people over two years. He started to kill in 1887, over a year before the Ripper, and his last murder was in 1889, almost ten months after the death of Mary Jane Kelly, the Ripper's last victim.In Arm of Eve, Sarah conducts her own investigation and uses modern criminal profiling to come up with her own suspect – a known criminal who knew the Thames like the back of his hand.Set to be published by The History Press on October 31, 2024, you can pre-order a copy here:Arm of Eve | The History Press***This interview was recorded on October 8, 2024.Join my Patreon community at patreon.com/britishmurders for exclusive perks, including early access to ad-free episodes, bonus content, exciting giveaways, and much more!Social Media:Facebook | British Murders with Stuart BluesInstagram | @britishmurdersTikTok | @britishmurdersPrivate Facebook Group:British Murders Podcast - Discussion GroupWebsite:britishmurders.comDo you have a guest request?

Like Jack the Ripper himself, little is known about his last victim, Mary Jane Kelly. Her heavily mutilated body was found in a leased room on Dorset Street in East London on November 9, 1888. She had been living in a slum frequently occupied by prostitutes and criminals – and her murder was so gruesome, police actively tried to suppress information about it to prevent any rumors. https://allthatsinteresting.com/mary-jane-kelly credits: https://allthatsinteresting.com/podcast-credits History Uncovered is part of the Airwave Media network: www.airwavemedia.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Profitez de cette offre sur Apple Podcasts dès aujourd'hui ! Entre le 31 août et le 9 novembre 1888, le quartier de Whitechapel dans l'est de Londres, est le théâtre de cinq meurtres effroyables. Cinq femmes sont retrouvées égorgées, leurs corps atrocement mutilés. La presse n'épargne aucun détail. Jack L'Éventreur vient d'écrire sa légende en lettres de sang. Dans un récit inédit d'Au cœur de l'Histoire, Virginie Girod vous raconte cette série de meurtres qui a marqué l'ère victorienne.En 1888, cela fait déjà 50 ans que Victoria règne sur le Royaume-Uni, la première puissance de l'époque. Londres concentre les richesses, mais aussi les inégalités. C'est à Whitechapel que s'entasse toute la misère de l'empire britannique triomphant. Bien des femmes s'y prostituent au péril de leur vie.Le 31 août, Polly, une prostituée, est retrouvée morte dans le quartier. Mais ce meurtre n'est pas comme les autres. La femme est éventrée, une partie de ses entrailles sont posées sur son épaule, et son son utérus a été arraché. Le 8 septembre, le corps d'une autre femme est retrouvé. Sa gorge est tranchée au point que la tête est presque séparée du corps. Son abdomen est ouvert, et ses intestins sont déposés sur son épaule droite. Le vagin, l'utérus et une partie de la vessie ont disparu. Les deux victimes sont mères de plusieurs enfants, divorcées et sans domicile fixe.L'affaire fait les choux gras de la presse à scandale. Le Star, le tabloïd le plus populaire de l'époque, vend bientôt 300.000 exemplaires par jour. Le 27 septembre 1888, le Royaume-Uni met un nom sur le tueur. L'agence de presse londonienne Central News reçoit une lettre. Son expéditeur s'attribue les crimes commis et signe « Jack l'Éventreur ». De son côté, la police procède à des centaines d'arrestations de bouchers, d'équarrisseurs, de médecins, de chirurgiens : tout homme capable de manier adroitement un couteau. Mais les témoignages se contredisent et l'enquête piétine.Trois jours plus tard, deux nouveaux meurtres sanglants endeuillent le quartier et les habitants se révoltent contre l'impuissance de la police. Whitechapel pense avoir touché le fond de l'horreur… alors que le pire est à venir.Le 9 novembre 1888, le corps de Mary Jane Kelly, est retrouvé dans sa chambre, repeinte avec son propre sang. Elle est méconnaissable, tant le meurtrier s'est acharné sur elle. C'est la dernière victime connue de Jack L'éventreur. On n'a pas la moindre idée de la raison pour laquelle les meurtres ont cessé, et on ignore encore l'identité du tueur.Les spéculations sont aussi nombreuses qu'invraisemblables : certains avancent même qu'il s'agirait du petit-fils de la reine Victoria, le Prince Albert Victor !Thèmes abordés : Jack l'Eventreur, tueur en série, ère victorienne, cold case 'Au cœur de l'histoire' est un podcast Europe 1 Studio- Présentation : Virginie Girod - Production : Camille Bichler - Réalisation : Pierre Cazalot- Composition de la musique originale : Julien Tharaud - Rédaction et Diffusion : Nathan Laporte- Communication : Kelly Decroix- Visuel : Sidonie Mangin

El 9 de noviembre se celebra el Día Mundial de la Adopción, en homenaje a un acto legal y de amor que permite dar a niños y jóvenes huérfanos una familia y un hogar. 9 de noviembre de 1888: Jack el Destripador asesina a su quinta y última víctima, Mary Jane Kelly, en su habitación de Miller's Court, en Whitechapel (Londres). 1922.- El dramaturgo español Jacinto Benavente obtiene el Premio Nobel de Literatura. 9 de noviembre de 1938: En Alemania, ocurre la Noche de los Cristales Rotos, una serie de actos de violencia perpetrados por los nazis contra la comunidad judía en todo el Reich, en la que destruyeron las propiedades de más de 35.000 judíos. 1948.- El príncipe Juan Carlos de Borbón llega a España procedente de Portugal para iniciar su formación académica bajo la supervisión del general Francisco Franco, jefe del Estado. 9 de noviembre de 1989: Ocurre la caída del Muro de Berlín, la revuelta popular ocurrida en Berlín Oriental por la apertura de fronteras llevó a la caída del Muro y como consecuencia al final de la Guerra Fría. 9 de noviembre de 1998: En Reino Unido es abolida la pena de muerte completamente, que se mantenía en vigor solo para casos de asesinato. 9 de noviembre de 2016: El candidato republicano, Donald Trump, gana las elecciones presidenciales de Estados Unidos y se proclama 45º presidente de los EE.UU. Patrocinio del santo de cada día por gentileza de la Casa de las Imágenes, en la calle Obispo Perez Cáceres, 17 en Candelaria. Santos Alejandro, Benigno y Teodoro Hamás negocia con Israel la liberación de una decena de rehenes a cambio de una tregua humanitaria en Gaza. Más protestas en Madrid contra la amnistía de Sánchez a los separatistas catalanes. Feijóo, tras los ataques a Ferraz: "La violencia no tiene cabida en democracia y su impunidad tampoco" El presidente de Canarias: “No estamos en contra de condonar deuda a Catalunya, pero debe haber igualdad”. Fernando Clavijo (Coalición Canaria) se ha mostrado abierto a pedir que se pueda condonar deuda pública que la administración isleña mantiene con entidades financieras, ya que en su momento el Archipiélago optó por esta modalidad de préstamo porque sus calificaciones crediticias eran buenas y los tipos de interés, más bajos que los que ofrecía la administración estatal. Canarias pierde fuelle económico entre las RUP: del liderazgo en riqueza per cápita de 2015 al actual antepenúltimo lugar. El Archipiélago, sobre todo por el impacto de la covid en la actividad turística entre 2020 y 2022 y por el aumento poblacional, retrocede del puesto de honor en 2015 (78,2% del PIB per cápita de la UE) al 62% en 2021, último dato publicado. El Parlamento pide la creación de un mapa de suelo agrario disponible en Canarias. El Parlamento canario convalida la creación del administrador general de RTVC y que sea propuesto por el Gobierno de CC-PP. La oposición critica que el Gobierno de CC-PP ha hecho un “decretazo para apropiarse de la televisión”. Un día como hoy pero en 1940.- Se estrena en el Palau de la Música de Barcelona el Concierto de Aranjuez, una composición musical para guitarra y orquesta del maestro Joaquín Rodrigo. 07:30 Informativo​​ 07:50 Capote 08:30 Wladimiro Rodríguez Brito 09:05 El independentista 09:30 Andrea Larrumbide, educadora de Poema del Mar, que hablará sobre la labor del Departamento de Educación de Poema del Mar durante este año, así hacemos énfasis en la labora de educación de zoos y acuarios. 617 509 662 Este año el departamento de educación cuenta con múltiples novedades. Desde principio del curso académico hemos estado yendo a los distintos centros educativos de manera presencial, ya no solo para dar a conocer entre los jefes de estudios o cuerpos directivos las nuevas actividades educativas con las que contamos este año; si no para tener una primera toma de contacto con el alumnado de aquellos centros que nos brinden la oportunidad, e introducir en sus propias aulas temas tan importantes como la labor del acuario y el bienestar animal. También tratar de desmitificar a centros como Poema del Mar y que tanto alumnado como profesorado entiendan los tres pilares básicos de los acuarios y zoológicos modernos: la educación, la conservación y la investigación; A la vez de dar a conocer nuestro trabajo y la gran la labor de Loro Parque Fundación y sus 63 proyectos globales de conservación, abordando pequeñas soluciones con las que pueden colaborar ellos en el día a día, como cuidado de mascotas o los residuos plásticos. Esta pequeña introducción nos ayuda a que el alumnado ya tenga una base a la hora de realizar con nosotros las distintas actividades, ya sean los 4 recorridos diferentes que ofrecemos dentro del acuario, en los cuales nos adaptamos a los niveles educativos e intereses de cada grupo hablando de curiosidades animales, de las adaptaciones de los animales a sus hábitats, desmitificando a los tiburones o tratando las amenazas de los ecosistemas. Son conceptos que a su vez refuerzan los cimientos de cara a las 3 actividades que estamos llevando a cabo en la isla de Gran Canaria representando a Loro Parque Fundación. En ellas, por un lado, tratamos a fondo la contaminación plástica con el proyecto “la arena de nuestras playas”, en la que nos desplazamos hasta una de las playas a conveniencia del centro escolar y realizamos en ella una limpieza. Posteriormente estudiamos cuales son los residuos que se encuentran de forma más habitual y abordamos el tema de los micro-plásticos y su impacto en el medioambiente y la salud. Por otro lado, estamos desarrollando con secundaria y bachillerato el proyecto “En busca de los más amenazados” en el cual participarán en una actividad de ciencia ciudadana aprendiendo sobre las especies locales más amenazadas, y descubriendo cómo realizar observaciones en la naturaleza de manera respetuosa a través de la aplicación Inaturalist. Por último, también educamos en el propio centro académico sobre “Cuidado y bienestar animal” con una charla-taller, entrando en mayor profundidad en estos temas, aprendiendo sobre comportamiento animal, su manejo y la responsabilidad que supone. Por el momento las actividades están teniendo una gran aceptación entre los docentes, en gran parte debido a que nuestras actividades son perfectamente compaginables con el currículo académico, sobre todo con aquellos centros adscritos a la Red InnovAS y sirven para poner en práctica o ver primera mano todo lo tratado teóricamente en el centro escolar. Los niños por su parte se muestran muy receptivos con la educación ambiental, para ser catalizadores del cambio en sus propias comunidades, preparándose para convertirse en líderes comprometidos con un futuro más limpio. - Sección de actualidad con mucho sentido de Humor inteligente en el programa El Remate de La Diez Capital radio con el periodista socarrón y palmero, José Juan Pérez Capote, El Nº 1. - Sección de actualidad con mucho sentido de Humor inteligente en el programa El Remate de La Diez Capital radio con el periodista socarrón y palmero, José Juan Pérez Capote, El Nº 1. -Andrea Larrumbide, educadora de Poema del Mar, nos relatara la labor del Departamento de Educación de Poema del Mar durante este año.

Happy Halloween! This time we look at the life of Mary Jane Kelly, believed to be the final and most brutal of the Ripper murders. Due to the nature of the topic, this podcast is not going to be family friendly. We are also giving a trigger warning for alcoholism, prostitution, and murder and mutilation.

The scariest time of the year is here, when darkness reigns and the veil between worlds is at its thinnest. Tonight, as the moon casts an eerie glow on the world below, and the wind whispers ancient secrets, we venture into a realm where the extraordinary becomes ordinary, and the mundane fades away. But beware, dear listener, as the subject of this year's Halloween special is most definitely not the faint of heart. For tonight we embark on a spine-chilling journey through the haunting streets of Whitechapel, as we unravel the mysteries surrounding one of the most notorious figures in history: Jack the Ripper. In our quest for truth and understanding, we will walk in the footsteps of Jack the Ripper himself, peering into the shadowy corners where his victims met their untimely demise. And we'll get to know Mary Ann Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes, and Mary Jane Kelly—the five canonical victims of Jack the Ripper, each murdered in the most horrific manner imaginable. And we'll seek out the ghosts of Whitechapel. Reports of ghostly apparitions, eerie footsteps, and mysterious sounds have plagued this area of England's capital for the last 135 years. Are these spectral echoes the tormented souls of those who met their end at the hands of the Ripper? Tonight, on the scariest night of the year turn the lights down low, and join me as I guide you through the East End of London as we ask just how haunted is Jack the Ripper's Whitechapel?

La nostra storia, inizia con la sua fine. Il 9 Novembre 1888, al numero 13 di Miller's Court, viene ritrovato il corpo di Mary Jane Kelly, 25 anni. Ciò che rimane di lei giace sul letto della sua camera. Il resto, se lo è portato via colui che ha commesso quel delitto. Lo stesso uomo che nelle settimane precedenti si era reso autore di altre quattro morti, tutte caratterizzate da un particolare accanimento sui corpi dopo la morte. Una caratteristica, che l'autore battessò il proprio nome: "Jack lo Squartatore".

Hello and happy spooky season. Between August and November 1888 at least 5 women were murdered by Jack the Ripper, and whilst there are tons of books, podcasts, and documentaries focused on the identity of the killer his victims; Mary Ann Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride, Catherine Eddows, and Mary Jane Kelly who are known as the canonical five are meer footnotes. However, we think it's more important we remember the women he killed and the lives they led. So, join us for a six part mini-series that looks at each of the victims lives, with one last podcast dedicated to possible Ripper Victims. Starting us off we have Mary Ann ‘Polly' Nichols. Due to the nature of the topic, this podcast is not going to be family friendly. We are also giving a trigger warning for alcoholism, prostitution, and murder and mutilation.

Seconda parte della puntata conclusiva della terza stagione. Parliamo del mistero più grande del XIX secolo e forse non solo. Ma lo racconteremo in modo completamente diverso, senza mai citare le indagini, senza mai citare il colpevole. Tanto non sappiamo chi è. Parleremo invece delle 5 donne cui ha strappato la vita. In questo episodio Catherine Eddowes e Mary Jane Kelly.  Music by GuilhermeBernardes from Pixabay

Mary Jane Kelly has been an enigma of sorts for over a century, as well as being an exception to the rule. So much of Kelly's life is seeped in mystery, in fact we have known more about her death than we do about her life, until now... Join Katie and her special guest Melissa from the God's Favourites podcast as they discuss why they believe there's more to the Kelly case than meets the eye.

Santos Alejandro, Benigno y Teodoro. PARTE DE GUERRA: Las fuerzas de Rusia siguen los preparativos defensivos en la región de Jersón. Elecciones a mitad del mandato en EEUU. Una batalla electoral marcada por la inflación. La resistencia demócrata deja en el aire el control del Congreso en un escrutinio muy ajustado. Los republicanos están en condiciones de conquistar la Cámara por la mínima, pero el Senado se les complica al no desatarse la “ola roja” que pronosticaba Trump. El Gobierno limita las 'puertas giratorias': los altos cargos deberán esperar dos años para pasar al sector privado. El Ejecutivo fija por primera vez límites en la influencia de los 'lobbies' o grupos de presión en el sector público. Creará un registro de estos grupos de interés y determinará los trabajadores de la Administración a los que afecta la ley. Emergencias ensaya este jueves en Canarias un sistema de alertas por SMS en Valleseco y Garachico que se quiere implementar en España en enero de 2024 La Gomera es la isla más beneficiada por las inversiones autonómicas del Gobierno del pacto de las flores. Con respecto a la anterior legislatura, las transferencias de capital en la isla colombina han aumentado un 128,52%. El Ejecutivo regional justifica la “especial incidencia” en las islas verdes en los últimos presupuestos. Las cifras, extraídas de los presupuestos del Archipiélago de los últimos ocho años, sitúan a las islas verdes como los territorios más beneficiados. Después de La Gomera, El Hierro ha visto aumentada su partida de inversiones y transferencias de capital un 112,41%, seguida de La Palma (90,16%), Lanzarote (62,72%), Gran Canaria (59,41%), Fuerteventura (58,94%) y Tenerife (55,05%). En La Gomera, por ejemplo, el gasto anual durante esta última legislatura está en 2.557,57 euros per cápita, por delante de El Hierro (2.508,94 euros), La Palma (1.055,67), Fuerteventura (686,30), Lanzarote (592,27), Gran Canaria (225,56) y Tenerife (220,42). El Gobierno canario critica que la privatización del 49% de Aena le “dificulta” participar en la gestión de los aeropuertos de las islas. El consejero de Obras Públicas y Transportes, Sebastián Franquis, considera que el actual modelo, a través de los Comités de Coordinación Aeroportuario, no es el instrumento adecuado y defiende que el Ejecutivo regional pueda intervenir en el Consejo de Administración de la entidad Turismo.- Ángel Víctor Torres se reúne en la WTM con los responsables de TUI. El principal investigado por el escándalo del caso Tradex será repatriado esta semana. Está previsto que Mukesh D., detenido en Dubái tras huir de la Isla al destaparse el escándalo financiero en Santa Cruz de Tenerife, sea trasladado hasta Madrid el próximo viernes. Curbelo: “El cable eléctrico submarino entre Tenerife y La Gomera es un hito histórico y extraordinario” El presidente del Cabildo adelanta que en la Isla “no solo nos autoabastecernos de energía limpia, sino que podremos exportarla”. La Gomera necesita unos 8 MW y con la renovables que aun no estan instaladas generará 12 MW. Ósea dará a Tenerife 4 MW de los 600 que necesita diariamente. Hoy en 1940.- Se estrena en el Palau de la Música Catalana de Barcelona el Concierto de Aranjuez, una composición musical para guitarra y orquesta del maestro Joaquín Rodrigo

In 1888, the malefactor known as Jack the Ripper killed at least five women—Polly Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elisabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes, and Mary Jane Kelly—in the poverty-stricken district of Whitechapel, East London. In the first episode of this season, we discuss the victims' lives and times as well as their deaths.

Hell, we did a two-parter on the case not too long ago. You know the story. Some crazy person, running around hacking up people, disemboweling them, and nobody knows who it was. You know, that old chestnut. There were other cases similar to the Jack the Ripper case, like the Vallisca ax murders, the Hinterkaifeck Murders, and quite a few more that we've covered right here on the Midnight Train.    Well, this story is right in line with those unsolved atrocities and… it happened before Jack the Ripper decided to go all willy nilly and mutilate a bunch of poor women.   The Servant Girl Annihilator, also known as the Austin Axe Murderer and the Midnight Assassin (which is my favorite for obvious reasons), was a still, as of yet, unidentified serial killer who preyed upon the city of Austin, Texas, between 1884 and 1885. The murderer's nickname originated with the writer O. Henry. Apparently he had mentioned the murderer in a letter he had written, coining the dipshit murderers name.   The brutal killings in Austin occurred three years before Jack the Ripper terrorized London's East End (and there are some who believe the Servant Girl Annihilator and Jack the Ripper were the same person and we'll touch on that later). Although these murders happened 75 years before the term serial killer was coined, it still sealed Austin's reputation as the first city in America to have a serial killer — and the peice of crap responsible to be known as the first serial murderer in the country. Not exactly someone sane is running to be the first, but someone has to be the first something, right?   First, let's talk about Austin, Texas and a smidge of its history.   As per Wikipedia: Evidence of habitation of the Balcones Escarpment region of Texas can be traced to at least 11,000 years ago. Two of the oldest Paleolithic archeological sites in Texas, the Levi Rock Shelter and Smith Rock Shelter, are located southwest and southeast of present-day Austin respectively. Several hundred years before the arrival of European settlers, the area was inhabited by a variety of nomadic Native American tribes. These indigenous peoples fished and hunted along the creeks, including present-day Barton Springs, which proved to be a reliable campsite. At the time of the first permanent settlement of the area, the Tonkawa tribe was the most common, with the Comanches and Lipan Apaches also frequenting the area. The first European settlers in the present-day Austin were a group of Spanish friars who arrived from East Texas in July 1730. They established three temporary missions, La Purísima Concepción, San Francisco de los Neches and San José de los Nazonis, on a site by the Colorado River, near Barton Springs. The friars found conditions undesirable and relocated to the San Antonio River within a year of their arrival. Following Mexico's Independence from Spain, Anglo-American settlers began to populate Texas and reached present-day Central Texas by the 1830s. The first documented permanent settlement in the area dates to 1837 when the village of Waterloo was founded near the confluence of the Colorado River and Shoal Creek.   Got all that? Good… maybe you can explain it to me later. Just kidding… kind of. The victims   The first unfortunate victim was Mollie Smith, a 25-year-old cook working for the Walter Hall residence on Sixth Street (then named Pecan Street). She was killed on December 30, 1884, in a grisly killing filled with an extreme amount of blood due to the ax wounds to her head, abdomen, chest, legs, and arms. Her body was found outside and placed in the snow next to the family outhouse. She was attacked with an axe in her sleep, dragged into the backyard, raped and murdered. Walter Spencer, 30 yrs. old, also attacked and wounded.   The second poor victim was Eliza Shelly, a young woman who worked as a cook for the family of Dr. Lucian Johnson. Killed a few months after Mollie Smith, Shelly had been brutally murdered on Cypress Street on May 7, 1885, and her head left almost completely split from the blows of an axe. She was the mother of three children.   Because of the killer's apparent weapon of choice — an axe — the murders were first known as the Austin Axe Murders until a well-known resident, William Sydney Porter (that writer guy with the pen name, O. Henry) wrote in a letter to a friend: "Town is fearfully dull, except for the frequent raids of the Servant Girl Annihilators, who make things lively during the dead of night." After his letter became public, locals and reporters began referring to the murderer as the Servant Girl Annihilator.    On May 23, 1885, a third hapless woman, also a young servant person, became the next victim. Her name was Irene Cross and she lived on East Linden Street, just across from Scholz Garten. A reporter on the scene after her vicious attack stated that she looked as if she had been scalped. This victim was killed with a knife, as opposed to the aforementioned ax. Was this attack the work of the Annihilator or a different lunatic?    As summer dwindled down, August brought forth the arrival of a horrendous attack on Clara Dick. Later that month, another servant named Rebecca Ramey was wounded and her 11-year-old daughter Mary was killed.   At this time, the citizens of Austin were scared as shit and began protecting their homes with extra measures. Other cautions, such as increased patrols in neighborhoods, going home before sunset, and 24-hour saloons closing at midnight, we all also put into place. (It's worth noting that despite the legend, Austin's famous moontowers were not constructed during this time. They came later in the 1890s.)   Next victims were 20 year old Gracie Vance and her 25 year old boyfriend Orange Washington. They were sleeping in a shack behind the home of Vance's boss when the couple was brutally attacked with an ax. According to the local paper, Vance's "head was almost beaten into a jelly." Gracie was also dragged into the backyard, raped and murdered. Lucinda Boddy and Patsy Gibson, both only 17 yrs. old, were also attacked and wounded.    Weird note here, up to this point all the victims were African-American, but they were not all servant girls. And many noted that white residents had not been attacked. At least not yet.   The final two murders occurred on Christmas Eve (or possibly December 28th), 1885. First, 41 year old Sue Hancock, the mother of two, described as "one of the most refined ladies in Austin," was found in her backyard (now the Four Seasons Austin) by her husband. She had been dragged there while sleeping and succumbed to her wounds.   Hours later, 17 year old Eula Phillips, "one of the prettiest women in Austin," was found dead in her in-laws backyard (where the Austin Central Library is now located) she was also dragged into the back yard, raped and murdered. Her 24 year old husband, Jimmy Phillips Jr, sustained severe wounds in the attack. Ultimately, both spouses of Sue Hancock and Eula Phillips were accused, but found not guilty of the murders.   After the Christmas Eve murders in 1885, the killings stopped, but the fear was still palpable. At the time of the murders, Austin had been changing from a small frontier town to a cosmopolitan city, but the reputation it acquired because of the crimes put a halt to the city's growth.   The suspects Although approximately 400 men were eventually rounded up by authorities and questioned in the killings, all suspects were released and the murders remain unsolved. However, there are a few names from history that stand out as possible murder suspects.   Nathan Elgin was native of Austin and a young African-American domestic servant who knew the streets of his hometown.    The majority of this next part was taken from the website servantgirlmurders.com   Late one night in February 1886 a saloon in Masontown in east Austin was the scene of a violent and disturbing incident. The surrounding neighborhood was in an uproar because a drunken, raging man had dragged a girl from the saloon to a nearby house where he could be heard beating and cursing her while she screamed for help. The entire neighborhood had come out in the streets and the commotion caught the attention of a nearby police officer. Police officer John Bracken arrived on the scene and the saloon keeper, Dick Rogers and a neighbor, Claibe Hawkins, went with Bracken to stop the man from beating the girl to death.   Rogers and Hawkins went into the house and pulled the man away from the girl and into the front yard. As Rogers and Hawkins grappled with the man, Officer Bracken got out the handcuffs. The man would not be subdued – he threw off Rogers and Hawkins and knocked Bracken off his feet. The man turned on them and brandished a knife. As Bracken tried to recover a shot rang out. Bracken drew his pistol and fired. The shot brought down the raging man. The man's name was Nathan Elgin. There was no explanation for Elgin's rage at the girl, named Julia. Bracken's shot did not kill Elgin instantly but it did leave him paralyzed and mortally wounded; he died the following day. A subsequent autopsy revealed that Bracken's bullet had lodged in Elgin's spine which accounted for the paralysis. The doctors had also noticed another detail – Elgin was missing a toe from his right foot. During the investigations of the crimes the authorities had carefully noted the footprints which were often bloodstained and had made distinct impressions in the soil as the perpetrator carried the weight of the victim. Apart from general measurements of size and shape, footprints in most instances are not especially distinctive and they would not have been much use to the authorities had they not possessed some unusual feature. But the footprints left behind at the Servant Girl Murder crime scenes did share a very distinct feature – one of the footprints had only four toes. The authorities never shared this fact with the press or the general public during the course of 1885. The press frequently complained about the secrecy surrounding the murder inquests and argued that making all the details of the crimes public would facilitate the capture of the responsible parties more quickly. The authorities disagreed and kept certain details of the cases to themselves – details that they hoped would eventually identify the perpetrator and link him to the crime scenes. After Nathan Elgin's death the authorities unexpectedly had the direct physical evidence they had been waiting for – a foot that matched the distinctive footprints of the killer. But the foot belonged to a dead man. What were they to do with that information? What could they do with it? To imagine the state of mind of the authorities at that time one has to understand the heightened state of fear and suspicion that was present in Austin at the beginning of 1886. In the month since the last murders in December 1885, the city's police force had been tripled in size. A curfew had been enacted and private citizens had organized into patrols to guard the neighborhoods after dark. Strangers were forced to identify themselves or be evicted from the city. Saloons and other raucous downtown establishments, usually open twenty-four hours a day, were forced to close at midnight. A new era of law and order had begun. Would there have been any advantage in revealing that perhaps the midnight assassin was dead? And what if Elgin was not the mysterious murderer of servant girls? It was in the authorities' best interest to wait and see if the murders continued. Maybe the authorities believed they had gotten lucky – they couldn't arrest, prosecute of convict Elgin, but perhaps the problem had been solved. But in February 1886 it was still too early to be sure. It is important to remember that at the beginning of 1886, the Christmas Eve murders were not the last murders, simply the latest, and the investigations into the murders continued, notably with detectives still shadowing other suspects. While the authorities were not able to make use of the evidence against Elgin, the defense attorneys for James Phillips and Moses Hancock certainly were. Eula Phillips, wife of James Phillips, and Susan Hancock, wife of Moses Hancock, had both been murdered on December 24, 1885 and both husbands were subsequently charged with murdering their wives. In May 1886, during the trial of James Phillips, defense attorneys introduced into evidence floorboards marked with bloody footprints that had been removed from the Phillips house after the murder. They were compared to the footprints of the defendant, who removed his shoes and had his feet inked and printed in an elaborate demonstration in the courtroom. Even though Phillip's footprints were substantially different in size than the bloody footprints on the floorboards, the jury was unconvinced. The motives of jealousy and drunkenness as argued by the prosecution convinced the jury and they found Phillips guilty of second degree murder. When the case against Moses Hancock was finally brought to trial, the Hancock received some substantial legal help in the form of pro bono representation by John Hancock (no relation) a former U.S. Congressman, one of the state's most prominent political figures and one of Austin's most astute legal practitioners. Also providing assistance for the defense rather than the prosecution, was Sheriff Malcolm Hornsby, who during his testimony, described making a cast of Elgin's foot after his death, the significance of the missing toe, the similarities between Elgin's footprint and the footprints left at the Phillips and Ramey murders, and that fact that there had been no further servant girl murders committed since Elgin's death. Even so, the jury was not completely persuaded and after two days of deliberation, a hung jury was declared and the case was discharged without a verdict. The verdicts in the Phillips and Hancock trials illustrated the consensus on the Servant Girl Murders and the motives behind them – that the murders had been committed by different persons with conventional motives. Was Nathan Elgin the Servant Girl Annihilator? In my opinion, he most likely was based on 1) direct physical evidence linking Elgin to the crimes, 2) testimony of Sheriff Malcolm Hornsby as to Elgin's ostensible guilt, 3) the fact that there were no further Servant Girl Murders after his death, and 4) Elgin fits the criminal profile of such a killer. *** Nathan Elgin – A Criminology The Servant Girl Murders were over 130 years ago and few official records pertaining to them have survived. Likewise, there is little surviving biographical information about Nathan Elgin, however the information that is available strongly correlates to traits associated with a Disorganized/Anger-Retaliatory (D/AR) serial killer profile, and the crime scenes of the Servant Girl Murders correspond exactly to that of anger-retaliatory crime scenes: In the anger-retaliatory rape-murder, the rape is planned and the initial murder involves overkill. It is an anger-venting act that expresses symbolic revenge on a female victim. Nettled by poor relationships with women, the aggressor distills his anguish and contempt into explosive revenge on the victim… the aggressive killer will either direct his anger at that woman or redirect his anger to a substitute woman. Because the latter type of scapegoating retaliation does not eliminate the direct source of hate, it is likely that it will be episodically repeated to relieve internal stresses. Dynamically, the rape-homicide is committed in a stylized violent burst attack for purposes of retaliation, getting even, and revenge on women. The perpetrator tends to choose victims from familiar areas… and may use weapons of opportunity in percussive assaults with fists, blunt objects or a knife. The subject tends to leave a disorganized crime scene, and the improvised murder weapon may be found within 15 feet of the body. The following traits are common to the D/AR serial killer profile and I would argue that they are present in the historical record specifically in connection to Nathan Elgin: childhood abuse or neglect early violent episodes violent fantasy resentment of authority escalation stressors Additionally, Nathan Elgin would have possessed the locational expertise critical to successfully enacting the murders and eluding the authorities, culminating in a distinctive signature killing style – the attack on sleeping female victim using blunt force to the head, carrying the body away from the house into the yard where the victim was then raped. Childhood Abuse Suspicions All of the murderers were subjected to serious emotional abuse during their childhoods. And all of them developed into what psychiatrists label as sexually dysfunctional adults.  From birth to age six or seven, studies have shown, the most important adult figure in a child's life is the mother, and it is in this time period that the child learns what love is. Relationships between our subjects and their mothers were uniformly cool, unloving and neglectful. (4) The disorganized offender grows up in a household where the father's work is often unstable, where childhood discipline is harsh, and where the family is subject to serious strain brought on by alcohol, mental illness, and the like. (5) One of the primary components in the creation of the D/AR serial killer profile is a dysfunctional, abusive relationship within the family and especially between the mother and the subject. The mothers often have psychological disorders or they have been victims of emotional and sexual abuse themselves and are then subsequently abusive with their own children. At best the mothers are emotionally distant and at worst they are physically and psychologically abusive. Nathan Elgin was born in 1866, the fourth of five children in his family. The Elgin family had moved to Austin from Arkansas after the war, to the freedman's community that came to be known as Wheatville. Nathan had three older siblings that had already married, started their own families and evidently lived normal lives while Nathan was still a child growing up in Austin. However the older siblings' mother, Angeline, had been a different woman than Nathan's mother, Susan. (6) There is no record of what happened to Angeline, she presumably died or separated from her husband, Richard Elgin, but after she left, a woman named Susan Pearce appeared in her place to raise Nathan – whether she was his biological mother is unknown. I think this substitution in the maternal line is significant and I would speculate that Susan Pearce was an abusive catalyst in Nathan's emotional development. The 1880 census listed 14-year-old Nathan Elgin as still living with his parents; it noted his ability to read and write, and his occupation as “servant.” He was likely placed into service by his mother. For Nathan, being a domestic servant at that period in time would have entailed working in an environment with Victorian strictures and discipline, submitting to the authority of women, both black and white, carrying out whatever tasks were ordered without argument.  Habitual abuse or humiliation of young Nathan could have been facilitated by such conditions and it is easy to imagine him having suffered abuse in such a position considering the rage directed at this particular class of women only a few years later. Any abuse Nathan experienced as a child without having the physical ability to stop it, would in the meantime have fueled an inner world of revenge fantasy and anger waiting to be unleashed. Not until he was a teenager would he finally gain the physical ability to express that anger, except toward whomever was the source. The source or its memory, the humiliation and shame they had used to define him, would retain the ability to make him feel helpless and impotent. The result, once he had gained maturity, would be not just fantasies of rage, but their physical expression, enacted again and again upon victims who were substitute for its source. Early Violent Episodes – Resentment of Authority – Violent Fantasy These adolescents overcompensated for the aggression in their early lives by repeating the abuse in fantasy – but, this time, with themselves as the aggressors. He is seen as an explosive personality who is impulsive, quick-tempered, and self-centered. In the summer of 1881, Nathan Elgin was arrested for carrying a pistol and getting into a confrontation with another young man near the Governor's mansion, “they cursed each other for some time and aroused the neighborhood.” Such incidents were not particularly remarkable for that time period and the newspaper frequently reported similar skirmishes between young “bloods,” however it does demonstrate that Elgin already had a violent disposition at a young age.   More remarkable was an incident in 1882, when Elgin sent a threatening letter to a deputy sheriff promising to “whip destroy and kill” the deputy the next time they met. The written expression of violent threats and fantasies, especially toward the police or other authorities, is one of the classic serial killer tells. Nathan's letter was described “reckless and bloodthirsty” in the newspaper, a description that would later be more fittingly applied to the murders of 1885.  Locational Expertise Apart from committing the murders in the middle of the night and using the cover of darkness for concealment, an intimate knowledge of the city would have been key to the killer's ability to elude the authorities. Nathan Elgin had locational expertise – he had grown up in Austin as it was being built. As a child in the 1870s he would have seen the wood-framed buildings that lined Congress Avenue and Pecan Street replaced by brick and mortar storefronts. He would have seen the streets graded and the wooded hills cleared for elegant neighborhoods, schools and churches. By 1885 he would have been intimately familiar with how the city worked and moved. He would have known all the shortcuts, the hiding places, which yards had dogs, which doors were left unlocked. He would have known how to go unnoticed and he would have known what was around every corner. Escalation The disorganized killer has no idea of, or interest in, the personalities of the victims. He does not want to know who they are, and many times takes steps to obliterate their personalities by quickly knocking them unconscious or covering their faces or otherwise disfiguring them.  [The victim] will often have horrendous wounds. [The killer] does not move the body or conceal it. The offender is usually somewhat younger than his victims.  In July 1884, there were two instances of women, both African American, being stabbed in the face as they slept. The women survived; the authorities investigated them as separate incidents. In August 1884, an African American woman was struck in the head with a smoothing iron as she slept. These nocturnal attacks, though not fatal, were so idiosyncratic in style that they must have been a fledgling attempt by an anger-retaliatory killer who would later escalate with gruesome results.  In November 1884, police reports mentioned a non-fatal nocturnal assault on a domestic servant as she slept in her bed. This incident never appeared in the newspaper.  A little over a month later, an African American woman named Mollie Smith was struck in the head with an axe as she slept; she was dragged into the backyard and raped. Her body was hacked to pieces by the killer and left at the scene.  Mollie Smith's murder set the pattern for all that followed. Locational Expertise and Escalation and Signature in the Vance/Washington and Hancock/Phillips Murders The disorganized killer doesn't choose victims logically, and so often takes a victim at high risk to himself, one not selected because he or she can be easily controlled…  …the assault continues until the subject is emotionally satisfied  The killer's personal expression takes the form of his unique signature, an imprint left by him at the scene, an imprint the killer is psychologically compelled to leave to satisfy himself sexually. After four murders the killer had become very adept and perhaps overly confident and by the time he entered the cabin of Gracie Vance he was confident enough to attack four persons simultaneously. Gracie Vance was a domestic servant employed by William Dunham and she lived, along with Orange Washington, in a cabin in the rear of his property. When the killer entered Gracie's cabin, instead of finding a solitary sleeping woman, he found three women and one man. Undeterred he proceeded to incapacitate all four as quickly as possible; however, one of the women was only briefly insensible and she went for help while the crime was still in progress. Neighbors were awakened by the disturbance and the police were called. Dunham and the neighbors went to investigate and a man was seen fleeing the scene. They fired their pistols at him as he made his escape in the darkness. As with the other victims, Gracie Vance was found in the backyard; her face had been pulverized with a rock. The suspect had fled in the direction of Wheatville, just to the west — the neighborhood Nathan Elgin had grown up in.  The Christmas Eve murders were in many ways the skeleton key to all the murders in that they demonstrated all the specific facets of the killer's MO and signature — his locational expertise, his ability to improvise and adjust at the scene as well as his emotional escalation which demonstrated the extent to which he would go to enact a very specific sex murder scenario – an attack in the bedroom upon a sleeping victim, then rape and murder in the backyard – even when the completion of that scenario was problematic.  Susan Hancock, unlike the other victims, was white, but other than that, the murder was carried out identically to the previous murders. It is unlikely the killer had the specific intent to select a white victim; rather something about the location, the house, and the fact that there was an axe in the backyard attuned to the killer's preferences. As with the other victims, Susan Hancock was struck in the head with an axe while she slept and then carried into the backyard. Susan's husband was asleep in another room but was awakened by the disturbance. He went into the backyard, saw a figure standing over his wife and threw a brick at him. Even though the perpetrator was armed with an axe he didn't retaliate against Hancock – instead he fled the scene by jumping over a fence into the alley. Hancock then ran to the east side of the house to cut him off but he wasn't there.  Instead of fleeing into the darkness, the perpetrator ran west, back toward Congress Avenue, the city's main thoroughfare. This peculiar evasion demonstrated that the perpetrator was very confident about where he was going — that he expected he could hide in plain sight. It is interesting to note that had Hancock gone west to cut off the fleeing perpetrator he might have been able to stop him, which could have brought a definitive resolution to the murderous events of that year. However, seeing the perpetrator had escaped he went back to his wife and called for help. Heading toward Congress Avenue, the perpetrator cut through the yard of the residence of May Tobin where his sudden appearance out of the darkness startled a young woman and her male companion – in his haste he could have literally run into the young woman. A confrontation occurs – the man threatens and insults him in demeaning and racist terms, perhaps the woman does too. The perpetrator has to retreat again and this would have been too much. The urge to kill had not been satisfied and would only have intensified after a humiliating confrontation. He follows the couple's cab across town to the residence of James Phillips. The cab arrives, the young woman, Eula Phillips, discreetly makes her way into the quiet house. Less than an hour later she is found in the backyard, raped and murdered. The killer could have dispatched Mr. Hancock and completed the crime at the Hancock residence but he did not. Likewise, he could have attempted to kill Eula and her companion in the relative seclusion of May Tobin's premises. Instead, the killer's primary motivation was the realization of a very specific violent sexual murder scenario. I believe a confrontation must have occurred at May Tobin's residence between Eula Phillips, her imperious companion, John Dickinson, and a very volatile Nathan Elgin. The confrontation had to have made him angry enough to pursue her across town — even though he had no idea where they were going or what he would find when he got there. I believe he was so angry that he pursued her at his own peril, when other, easier opportunities for a kill were in closer proximity. The bloody footprints left at the Phillips house would subsequently be affirmatively compared to the footprints of the deceased Elgin.  Austin Daily Statesman 3 June 1887 Stressors …by the very nature of their childhood, serial killers are most likely to lead lives full of stressful events. As children and adolescents they lack self-esteem, are isolated and maladjusted, and are therefore poorly prepared for coping with life as adults.  Historically, the retaliatory killer's marriage will have been ill-fated and he will usually be in some phase of estrangement. …If he has a relationship, there will have generally been a history of long-term spousal abuse, which will not likely have been covered by criminal complaints.  In the study of serial sexual homicides, a “stressor” is defined as an event, interaction or conflict in which the killer is reminded of past humiliations and abuses. To purge his feelings of shame, inadequacy or powerlessness the killer will endeavor to enact a murderous scene in which he is powerful and in total control. In the case of Nathan Elgin, there is a remarkable example of a pre-crime stressor in the instance of his wife, Sallie, giving birth to a child the same night two women were being murdered on Christmas Eve. I believe that this was more than a coincidence and whatever stressors Elgin was susceptible to were triggered by this event. While the birth of a child would not normally seem to be cause for a murderous rampage, in the case of a D/AR profile it very well could. Nathan had married Sallie Wheat in 1882. She was a year older than him. They did not live together. It is not unusual for serial killers to be married, however it is rare in the case of the D/AR killer profile because of their volatile temperament towards women. Sallie could have held the power in the relationship; conversely she could have been subjected to abuse herself. There is an indication that Sallie was aware, at least subsequently, of Nathan's responsibility for the murders – as a means of disassociation she raised Nathan's son under the surname Davis rather than Elgin.  Post Mortem We read a great deal of theorizing about the series of murders in Austin, that all the assassinations were the work of a cunning lunatic — a monomaniac on the subject of murder.  From what I can learn, I don't believe anything of the kind, and it is my deliberate opinion that these murders can not only be unearthed, but when probed to the bottom, it will be found that they were committed by different individuals and that in each case they were prompted by lust, jealousy, or hatred. (27) A Monomaniac On the Subject of Murder would be an apt title for a 19th century dime novel. The quote above by Waco Marshal Luke Moore was closer to the truth than he realized but the ideas he articulated were not exclusive; Nathan Elgin was indeed a monomaniac on the subject of murder and he was motivated by lust, hatred and revenge. In contemporary criminal investigations of serial sexual homicides, law enforcement will have decades of criminal profiles at their disposal which have been painstakingly created as a resource to match types of murders to specific types of offenders. In other words, they know who they're looking for. And the more unusual the murders, the easier it is to focus the investigation toward a specific type of offender. If the Servant Girl Murders were committed in this day and age and the perpetrator had left behind similar evidence, contemporary forensic resources and methods would create a criminal profile and evidence collected could confirm or eliminate potential suspects. The perpetrator would most likely be apprehended very quickly. Serial killers who are apprehended and convicted are later questioned extensively by the authorities and they are usually quiet happy to talk about themselves because they frequently have an inherent superiority complex and are eager to expound upon their mastery and superiority even though they are behind bars. It is interesting to note that the wounded Elgin was not interviewed by reporters, which was unusual – almost everyone involved in a shooting at that period in time had a reporter waiting for them after being attended to by a physician. Nor did the police make any statement regarding Elgin. The inquest of his death was held in secret. Elgin most likely spent his last hours delirious as doctors made a futile attempt at finding and removing the bullet that entered his side and lodged in his spine. If Elgin's murder spree had followed the trajectory of most disorganized serial killers, he would have continued to escalate until his confidence overcame his self-restraint and he would have eventually been caught or killed fleeing the scene. Hypothetically, if he had been arrested for a murder, unless he specifically admitted to it, I doubt the authorities would have connected him to all the murders. Had he been arrested and interrogated I think Elgin would have baffled the police, but they wouldn't have spent much time contemplating him; he would have undoubtedly been indicted, tried and hung in short order. The newspaper account of him would have been a typically villainous caricature from that time period, and people today would still wonder if he was responsible. So now, another suspect and a possible connection to Jack The Ripper.   The next suspect was Maurice (no last name given), a Malaysian cook who worked at the Pearl House in downtown Austin. The Pearl House had connections to a majority of the victims of the Annihilator, therefore this theory took off like a mother fucker..   Allegedly, once Maurice left Austin only 3 weeks after the last murder, bound for New Orleans and ultimately London, the murders ended. And although the killings by Jack the Ripper were arguably more brutal in nature, many believe the Austin and London killers were actually the same person — a murderer that began to escalate his killings. Something that has been studied and noted by psychologists and other people smarter than us. Maurice apparently told acquaintances at the hotel that he was going to work aboard ships as a cook to earn his passage to London for a fresh start. A little known fact: the cook Maurice was actually suspected after the last murder and put under surveillance   According to Reddit author Sciencebzzt:   So many people who follow the Ripper case seem to want him to be a suave, elegant dude. A surgeon or a royal or a tormented upper class freak of some kind. But the facts don't suggest that. People say whoever killed the girls must have been skilled with a blade, that may be true, but the "brutality" suggests they were cut up like animals, skinned and gutted almost. The way a butcher... or a cook... might. Anyway, back to Austin in 1886. Most experts on serial killers will tell you it's unlikely that the murders will just stop, unless the murderer is dead, in prison, or has moved elsewhere. In fact, most will say that the serial killers M.O. usually evolves, and changes... while the main motivation doesn't. This would explain the difference in the Ripper murders 3 years later... and also why they seem to have the same extremely brutal motivations. Jack the Ripper didn't use an axe the way the Servant Girl Annihilator did, however, this may have been because an axe was not a common thing to carry around in 1888 London, the largest city in the world at the time. In 1884 Austin, a town of 10,000 at the westernmost terminus of a railroad line, an axe was likely less conspicuous. The scariest part though... is what happened after 1888. Whoever "he" was, he was obviously a highly driven, aggressive murderer, and he already had success (probably) in leaving Austin and getting away with murder. Well, consider this: After 1888, similar serial murders of women started happening in port towns along major trade routes, like Nicaragua, Tunis, and Jamaica. If the Servant Girl Annihilator and Jack the Ripper were the same man, given the highly aggressive style, brutality and rapid succession of the murders, one quickly after the other... it's likely he killed far, far more girls than we know about, all over the world.   Did Maurice leave to avoid the authorities and escalate his murders or did her simply leave because his reputation was tarnished?    The Jack the ripper murders were allegedly from april 3 1888 to 1891.    The Vallisca ax murders were on June 10th, 1912   New orleans ax murders May 1918 to October 1919   I spent countless hours looking up ship records from 1886 and there is one record of a “Maurice” that went to England from the US. The funny thing is, his name was Maurice Kelly. The Ripper's last known and documented victim was Mary Jane Kelly. It's probably just a coincidence but what if it isn't?   TOP 10 MOVIES BASED ON REAL UNSOLVED MYSTERIES https://www.watchmojo.com/video/id/44882

Jack the Ripper was an unidentified serial killer active in the impoverished districts in and around Whitechapel in the East End of London in 1888. In both criminal case files and the contemporary journalistic accounts, the killer was called the Whitechapel Murderer and Leather Apron.Attacks ascribed to Jack the Ripper typically involved female prostitutes who lived and worked in the slums of the East End of London. Their throats were cut prior to abdominal mutilations. The removal of internal organs from at least three of the victims led to proposals that their killer had some anatomical or surgical knowledge. Rumours that the murders were connected intensified in September and October 1888, and numerous letters were received by media outlets and Scotland Yard from individuals purporting to be the murderer. The name "Jack the Ripper" originated in a letter written by an individual claiming to be the murderer that was disseminated in the media. The letter is widely believed to have been a hoax and may have been written by journalists in an attempt to heighten interest in the story and increase their newspapers' circulation. The "From Hell" letter received by George Lusk of the Whitechapel Vigilance Committee came with half of a preserved human kidney, purportedly taken from one of the victims. The public came increasingly to believe in a single serial killer known as "Jack the Ripper", mainly because of both the extraordinarily brutal nature of the murders and media coverage of the crimes.Extensive newspaper coverage bestowed widespread and enduring international notoriety on the Ripper, and the legend solidified. A police investigation into a series of eleven brutal murders committed in Whitechapel and Spitalfields between 1888 and 1891 was unable to connect all the killings conclusively to the murders of 1888. Five victims—Mary Ann Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes, and Mary Jane Kelly—are known as the "canonical five" and their murders between 31 August and 9 November 1888 are often considered the most likely to be linked. The murders were never solved, and the legends surrounding these crimes became a combination of historical research, folklore, and pseudohistory, capturing public imagination to the present day.Here's how and where you can find Homicide Worldwide Podcast.To help support the show, find us on Patreon: patreon.com HWW is now on Discord: https://discord.gg/F9cMyf7JFJTo our amazing listeners.

Ep.151 Pt.2 Ripper suspects   This week in part 2…. Suspects in the jack the ripper case… there's a ton…like pretty much everyone alive at the time of the murders…and maybe some that weren't…who knows. So here we frigging go!    Montague John Druitt:   Although there may not be any concrete, scientific evidence against him, the Jack, The Ripper murders in London's East End ended after Druitt's suicide convinced one London detective (Melville Leslie Macnaghten) that Druitt was, in fact, Jack The Ripper himself.    Montague John Druitt, son of prominent local surgeon William Druitt, was a Dorset-born barrister. He also worked as an assistant schoolmaster in Blackheath, London, to supplement his income. Outside of work, his primary interest was cricket.   He played alongside the likes of Francis Lacey, the first man knighted for services to cricket. His numerous accolades in the game include dismissing John Shuter for a duck. The England batsman was playing for Bexley Cricket Club at the time.   On the recommendation of Charles Seymour and noted fielder Vernon Royle, Druitt was elected to the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) on May 26th, 1884. One of the minor matches for MCC was with England bowler William Attewell against Harrow School on June 10th, 1886. The MCC won by 57 runs.   Montague John Druitt's decomposed body was found floating in the Thames near Chiswick on December 31st, 1888. He had a return train ticket to Hammersmith dated December 1st, a silver watch, a cheque for £50 and £16 in gold (equivalent to £5,600 and £1,800 today).   He is believed to have committed suicide, a line of thought substantiated by the fact there were stones in his pockets. Possibly to keep his body submerged in the river.   The cause of his suicide is said to be his dismissal from his post at the Blackheath boys' school. The reason for his release is unclear. However, one newspaper, quoting his brother William's inquest testimony, reported being dismissed because he "had got into serious trouble." Although, it did not specify any further.   Several authors have suggested that Druitt may have been dismissed because he was a homosexual or a pederast. Another speculation is that the money found on his body would be used for payment to a blackmailer, or it could have simply been a final payment from the school.   Another possibility involving his dismissal and eventual death is an underlying hereditary psychiatric illness. His mother had already attempted suicide once by taking an overdose of laudanum. She died in an asylum in Chiswick in 1890. In addition, both his Grandmother and eldest sister committed suicide, while his aunt also attempted suicide.   A note written by Druitt and addressed to his brother William was found in Druitt's room in Blackheath. It read,                "Since Friday I felt that I was going to be like mother, and the best thing for me was to die."   The last of the canonical five murders had taken place shortly before Druitt's suicide. Following his death, there were no more ripper murders.   In 1891, a member of parliament from West Dorchester, England, began saying that the Ripper was "the son of a surgeon" who had committed suicide on the night of the last murder.   Assistant Chief Constable Sir Melville Macnaghten named Druitt as a suspect in the case.   He did so in a private hand-written memorandum on February 23rd, 1894. Macnaghten highlighted the coincidence between Druitt's disappearance and death shortly after the last of the five murders.   He also claimed to have unspecified "private information." One that left "little doubt" that Druitt's own family believed him to have been the murderer.   The memorandum read:    "I have always held strong opinions regarding him, and the more I think the matter over, the stronger do these opinions become. The truth, however, will never be known, and did indeed, at one time lie at the bottom of the Thames, if my conjections be correct!"   Macnaghten was convinced that Montague John Druitt was the serial killer they had long been looking for. However, he incorrectly described the 31-year old barrister as a 41-year-old doctor and cited allegations that he "was sexually insane" without specifying the source or details of the allegations.   Macnaghten did not join the force until 1889, after the murder of Kelly and the death of Druitt. He was also not involved in the investigation directly and is likely to have been misinformed.   There is also the case of Druitt playing Cricket games far away from London during many of the murders.   On September 1st, the day after the murder of Nichols, Druitt was in Dorset playing cricket. On the day of Chapman's murder, he played cricket in Blackheath. The day after the murders of Stride and Eddowes, he was in the West Country defending a client in a court case.   Some writers such as Andrew Spallek and Tom Cullen have argued that Druitt had the time and opportunity to travel by train between London and his cricket and legal engagements. He could have even used his city chambers as a base from which to commit the murders. However, several others have dismissed the claim as "improbable."   For instance, Druitt took 3 wickets in the match against the Christopherson brothers at Blackheath on September 8th, the day of the Chapman murder. He was on the field at 11.30 AM for the game and performed out of his skin. An event unlikely if he were walking the streets of London committing a murder at 5:30 AM.   Most experts now believe that the killer was local to Whitechapel. On the other hand, Druitt lived miles away on the other side of the Thames in Kent. Even Inspector Frederick Abberline appeared to dismiss Druitt as a serious suspect because the only evidence against him was the coincidental timing of his suicide shortly after the last canonical murder. Aaron Kosminski:   Aaron Kosminski was not a stable man. In 1891, he was sent to Colney Hatch Asylum. Psychiatric reports made during Kosminski's time there state that Kosminski heard auditory hallucinations that directed him to do things. Although some claim that Kosminski wasn't violent, there is a record of him threatening his own sister with a knife.    The "canonical five" murders which wrapped up the sum of the Ripper's official kills, stopped soon after Kosminski was put into an asylum. Present-day doctors think Kosminski might have been a paranoid schizophrenic, but it sure is suspicious that his institutionalization fits the timeline of Jack the Ripper.    Kosminski threatened his sister with a knife. Jack the Ripper is infamous for the violent way he murdered his female victims. This serial killer did things like slashing throats, removing organs, and severely disfiguring faces. The crimes he committed were grisly and suggested a severe hatred of women.    Kosminski definitely fits the description of hating women. He was terrible at socializing with women, and according to Chief Constable Melville Macnaghten, he was known for his profound resentment of women.    Macnaghten wrote, "This man became insane due to indulgence in solitary vices for many years. He had a great hatred of women, especially of the prostitute class, & had strong homicidal tendencies."    Hating prostitutes and suspected as being capable of murder? Kosminski is looking better and better as the chief Jack the Ripper suspect.    On the night of one of the murders, a woman named Elizabeth Long said she heard the man's voice who led Jack the Ripper victim, Annie Chapman, to her death. Long said she listened to the man ask Annie, "Will you?" as they were discussing their sex work arrangement. Long described the man's voice as having an accent.    Kosminski, as a Polish Jew, had an accent. A clue left on a Goulston Street wall in London suggested that Jack the Ripper had a native language other than English as well. The person who wrote the message spelled the word "Juwes" instead of "Jews." The entire statement read, "The Juwes are the men that will not be blamed for nothing." It was never understood what was actually meant by it.    What's more, Macnaghten wrote this about a suspect spotted fleeing on the night of Catherine Eddowes' murder: "This man in appearance strongly resembled the individual seen by the City P.C. near Mitre Square."    Care to guess who "the individual seen by the City P.C." Macnaughten referred to was? That's right. He was talking about Aaron Kosminski! Although reports of Jack the Ripper's appearance, in general, were inconsistent, Kosminski fit the appearance of someone spotted at one of the crime scenes. Macnaghten's report has been discredited, though, so take this information as you will.    In 2007, a man named Russel Edwards wanted to confirm the identity of Jack the Ripper so severely that he acquired the shawl of Jack the Ripper victim Catherine Eddowes. He had the shawl's DNA tested and confirmed that the genetic material on the shawl traced back to one of Kosminski's living relatives.    Edwards had written a book entitled, Naming Jack the Ripper, thus having something to gain, so people didn't believe this analysis. That is until the DNA was studied by an unrelated peer-reviewed science journal. In 2019, The Journal of Forensic Sciences confirmed that the DNA did indeed match Aaron Kosminski. The results were apparently sketchy and not tested again until 2019 by Liverpool John Moores University and the University of Leeds. The DNA presented matched the descendants of Kosminski and Eddowes. Although, the shawl was never documented in police custody.   Francis Craig:    Born in 1837 in Acton, west London, Francis Spurzheim Craig was the son of a well-known Victorian social reformer.   His father, ET Craig, was a writer and advocate of phrenology – interpreting personality types by feeling the shape of the head – a so-called "science" that was already falling out of fashion by the Ripper murders.   However, the family moved into influential west London circles, counting William Morris, the socialist and founder of the Arts and Crafts movement, among their friends.   Craig, like his father, was a journalist but not a successful one. Friends described him as sensitive yet stubborn.   After a period in the United States from 1864 to 1866, Craig spent time in local newspapers but in the 1871 Census listed himself as a person of "No occupation."   By 1875 he had been appointed editor of the Bucks Advertiser and Aylesbury News.   Here, Craig's journalism career suffered an almost terminal blow when he was caught cribbing reports from The Daily Telegraph and was brutally exposed as a plagiarist by a rival publication.   It is not known how he met Elizabeth Weston Davies – it may have been at William Morris' social gatherings – but they married on Christmas Eve 1884 in Hammersmith.   Just a few months later – on May 19th, 1885 – she was seen entering a private hotel near their marital home in Argyll Square, King's Cross, with a "young man … at 10 o'clock at night".   The book says it was a crushing blow for Craig, who had been unaware of his wife's involvement in prostitution.   She left and went into hiding in the East End under the pseudonym Mary Jane Kelly.   In The Real Mary Kelly, author Wynne Weston-Davies suggests Craig suffered from a mental illness, namely schizo-typal personality disorder.   Craig followed her to Whitechapel, taking lodgings at 306 Mile End Road.   He tried to locate the only woman he had ever loved, and as time passed, his love for her turned to hatred.   Then, he plotted to murder her, disguising his involvement by killing a series of prostitutes beforehand, the book suggests.   A few months after the murder of Elizabeth/Mary Jane, Craig left the East End and returned to west London as editor of the Indicator and West London News, a job he held until 1896.   In 1903, while living in lodgings at Carthew Road, Hammersmith, Craig cut his throat with a razor, leaving his landlady a note which read: "I have suffered a deal of pain and agony."   He did not die until four days later, Sunday, March 8th, 1903, and in an inquest, the coroner recorded a verdict of "Suicide whilst of unsound mind and when irresponsible for his actions."   Dr. Weston-Davies plans to exhume Elizabeth/Mary Jane's body to carry out DNA analysis, which he believes will show the true identity of the Ripper's final victim and, therefore, prove Craig's motive for the murders.   Carl Feigenbaum:   Carl Feigenbaum was most certainly a convicted murderer.   Indeed, he was convicted of and executed for the murder of Mrs. Juliana Hoffman, a 56-year-old widow who lived in two rooms above a shop at 544 East Sixth Street, New York, with her 16-year-old son, Michael.   Feigenbaum told the Hoffman's that he had lost his job as a gardener and therefore had no money. However, he assured them that he had been promised a job as a florist and that, once he was paid, on Saturday, September 1st, 1894, he would be able to pay them the rent that he owed. The Hoffmans took him at his word, a trust that would prove fatal for Mrs. Hoffman.   As a consequence of their having a lodger, who was given the rear of the two rooms, mother and son shared the front room, Juliana sleeping in the bed, and Michael occupying a couch at the foot of her bed.   Shortly after midnight, in the early hours of September 1st, 1894, Michael was woken by a scream, and, looking across to his mother's bed, he saw their lodger leaning over her, brandishing a knife. Michael lunged at Feigenbaum, who turned around and came at him with the knife.   Realizing he would be no match against an armed man, Michael escaped out of a window and began screaming for help.   Looking through the window, Michael watched in horror as Feigenbaum stabbed his mother in the neck and then cut her throat, severing the jugular. Juliana made one final attempt to defend herself and advanced toward her attacker, but she collapsed and fell to the floor.   Feigenbaum then returned to his room. H escaped out of the window, climbed down into the yard, and washed his hands at the pump. He then made his way out into an alleyway that led to the street.   So, how did his name become linked to the Whitechapel murders of 1888?   In a nutshell, he reputedly confessed to having been Jack the Ripper shortly before his execution.   It is noticeable that the British press didn't pay much attention to the trial of Carl Feigenbaum - until, following his execution, one of his lawyers made an eleventh-hour confession public.   Suddenly, articles about his confession began appearing in British newspapers, one of which was the following report, which appeared in Reynolds's Newspaper on Sunday, 3rd, May 1896:-                "An impression, based on an eleventh-hour confession and other evidence, prevails that Carl Feigenbaum, who was executed at Sing Sing on Monday, the real murderer of the New York outcast, nick-named Shakespeare, is possibly Jack the Ripper, of Whitechapel notoriety.   The proofs, however, are far from positive."   A week later, on Sunday, May 10th, 1896, Lloyd's Weekly Newspaper published a more detailed account of the confession, which had been made to his lawyer, William Stamford Lawton:-   "THE AMERICAN JACK THE RIPPER Carl Feigenbaum, who was executed in the electric chair at Sing Sing last week, is reported to have left a remarkable confession with his lawyer.   The account of the lawyer reads:-   "I have a statement to make, which may throw some light on the murder for which the man I represented was executed. Now that Feigenbaum is dead and nothing more can be done for him in this world, I want to say as his counsel that I am absolutely sure of his guilt in this case, and I feel morally certain that he is the man who committed many, if not all, of the Whitechapel murders.   Here are my reasons, and on this statement, I pledge my honour.   When Feigenbaum was in the Tombs awaiting trial, I saw him several times.   The evidence in his case seemed so clear that I cast about for a theory of insanity. Certain actions denoted a decided mental weakness somewhere.   When I asked him point blank, "Did you kill Mrs. Hoffman?", he made this reply:- "I have for years suffered from a singular-disease, which induces an all absorbing passion; this passion manifests itself in a desire to kill and mutilate the woman who falls in my way.   At such times I am unable to control myself."   On my next visit to the Tombs I asked him whether he had not been in London at various times during the whole period covered by the Whitechapel murders?   "Yes, I was," he answered.   I asked him whether he could not explain some of these cases: on the theory which he had suggested to me, and he simply looked at me in reply."   The statement, which is a long one, proves conclusively that Feigenbaum was more or less insane, but the evidence of his identity with the notorious Whitechapel criminal is not satisfactory."   Hmmm... Of course, many disagree with this and do not believe the confession.   In truth, there is no compelling evidence to suggest that Lawton may have been lying about what his client had told him, and it might just have been that Feigenbaum may have thought that, in confessing to the Whitechapel murders, he would buy him a little extra time.   Walter Sickert: The English Painter   The name of Walter Sickert has been linked to the Jack the Ripper murders by several authors. However, his role in the killings has been said to have varied enormously over the years.   According to some authors, he was an accomplice in the Whitechapel Murders, while others depicted him as knowing who was responsible for the crimes and duly informing them.   But, according to the crime novelist Patricia Cornwell in her 2002 book "Portrait of a Killer - Jack the Ripper Case Closed," Sickert was, in fact, the man who carried out the crimes that became known as the Jack the Ripper Murders.   According to Cornwell's theory, Walter Sickert had been made impotent by a series of painful childhood operations for a fistula of the penis.   This impotence had scarred him emotionally and had left him with a pathological hatred of women, which, in time, led him to carry out the series of murders in the East End of London.   Doubts were raised about her theory when it was pointed out that St Mark's Hospital, where the operations on the young Sickert were supposedly performed, specialized in rectal and not genital fistulas.   Butts, not nuts.   So what evidence is there to suggest that Sickert possessed a pathological hatred of women?   Again, not shit, really. In "Portrait of a killer," Cornwell cites a series of Sickert's paintings inspired by the murder in 1908 of a Camden Town prostitute by Emily Dimmock. According to Patricia Cornwall's hypothesis, this series of pictures bears a striking resemblance to the post-mortem photographs of the victims of Jack the Ripper.   Now there is little doubt that Sickert was fascinated by murder and finding different ways to depict the menace of the crime and the criminal.   But, to cite this as evidence that he was actually a murderer - and, specifically, the murderer who carried out the Jack the Ripper killings - is hardly definitive proof.   As you passengers more than likely know, when looking at a particular Jack the Ripper suspect or any murder suspect, you need to be able to link your suspect with the crime.   You need to, for example, be able to place them at the scene of the crime, duh.   Here again, the case against Sickert unravels slightly since evidence suggests that he may not even have been in England when the murders were committed.   Many letters from several family members refer to him vacationing in France for a period corresponding to most of the Ripper murders.   Although it's been suggested that he might have traveled to London to commit the murders and then returned to France, no evidence has been produced to indicate that he did so.   Cornwall also contends that Sickert was responsible for writing most of the Jack the Ripper correspondence and frequently uses statements made in those letters to strengthen her case against him.   Authorities on the case and the police at the time, nearly all, share the opinion that none of the letters - not even the Dear Boss missive that gave him his name - was the work of the killer.   In addition, there is the problem that the style of the letters varies so significantly in grammatical structure, spelling, and hand-writing that it is almost impossible for a single author to have created all of them.   In her quest to prove Sickert's guilt, Cornwall also funded DNA tests on numerous stamps and envelopes, which she believed that Sickert had licked and compared the DNA to that found on the Ripper letters. Interestingly, a possible match was found with the stamp on the Dr. Openshaw letter.   Critics, however, have pointed out that the DNA comparisons focused on mitochondrial DNA, which could be shared by anything from between 1% and 10% of the population, so it was hardly unique to Sickert.   The last characters are generally considered the top suspects in the car; however that hasn't stopped many others from being implicated. Including known serial killers and even royalty.   H.H. Holmes:   He is known as "America's First Serial Killer," but some believe America was not his only hunting ground.    Jeff Mudgett, a lawyer and former Commander in the U.S. Naval Reserve, claims that his great-great-grandfather, H.H. Holmes, was DUN DUN, Jack the Ripper. Mudgett bases his assertions on the writings in two diaries he inherited from Holmes, which detail Holmes's participation in the murder and mutilation of numerous prostitutes in London. Mudgett also claims that the man who died in the public hanging on May 7th, 1896, was not Holmes, but rather a man that Holmes tricked into going to the gallows in his place.   Travel documentation and witness accounts also lend themselves to the theory that Jack the Ripper and Holmes are the same. The biggest issue with Holmes and the Ripper being the same psychopathic man is that one was in Chicago and the other in London when international travel was not as easy as it is now. Back then, traveling between the U.K. and the U.S. was by boat, which could take about a month. However, with the Ripper killings ending in early 1889 and the first Holmes killing at the end of 1889, the timeline is entirely possible.   It is recorded that a passenger by the name of H. Holmes traveled from the U.K. to the U.S. at that time. Holmes is a pretty popular last name, and H.H. Holmes' legal name was actually Herman Webster Mudgett, but it is possible.   In addition, based on accounts and descriptions of Jack the Ripper, multiple sketch artists were able to come up with a drawing of Jack the Ripper, which looked eerily similar to H.H. Holmes. However, another account describes Jack the Ripper as having "brown eyes and brown hair," which could really be anyone.   Experts deny that H.H. Holmes and Jack the Ripper are the same person because they had different motives. While Jack the Ripper typically went after poor women who were sex workers, H.H. Holmes was naturally after money. He was adept at moving accounts and signing life insurance over to his many aliases. In addition, he'd try to find people disconnected from family or else murder entire families and siblings to take inheritances.   Of the deniers to the theory, Jeff Mudgett had this to say:   "There are too many coincidences for this to be another bogus theory,"     "I know that the evidence is out there to prove my theory and I'm not going to give up until I find it."   Except for those diaries he claims to have. He refuses to show anyone, even going as far as to not print pictures of them in his book. His excuse for this is that it's "technically evidence" and could be confiscated by law enforcement because there is no statute of limitations on murder.   Prince Albert Victor: The guy with the dick jewelry name.   Everyone loves a conspiracy theory, and there have been few better than the theory of Prince Albert Victor impregnating a "shop girl" named Annie Crook. Obviously, the royal family had Queen Victoria's physician Dr. Gull brutalize her at a mental institution until she forgot everything. She then left the illegitimate child with prostitute Mary Kelly, who blabbed about the relationship to her friends (also prostitutes). With this scandalous knowledge, they were quickly and quietly disposed of – in a series of killings so grisly and high profile that we're still talking about them over a century later. There is also talk of him contracting syphilis from his many days of frolicking in East End brothels, causing him to become "insane" and, naturally, a serial killer. Unfortunately, the story is spoiled by his being out of London during the murders. Oh, and the total lack of evidence for any of this.   Lewis Carroll: Ya know, the Alice in Wonderland author.   Even though more than 500 people have been accused as Ripper suspects at one time or another, the most outlandish must be Richard Wallace's theory in his 1996 book, "Jack the Ripper, Light-Hearted Friend." Wallace took passages from Carroll's children's books and derived garbage anagrams from them, changing and leaving out letters as they suited his bizarre purposes. Watch the documentary "Sons of Sam for more idiocy like this." People always seem to find a way to contort information to fit their agendas. But I digress. From The Nursery Alice, he took "So she wandered away, through the wood, carrying the ugly little thing with her. And a great job it was to keep hold of it, it wriggled about so. But at last she found out that the proper way was to keep tight hold of its left foot and its right ear" and turned it into "She wriggled about so! But at last Dodgson and Bayne found a way to keep hold of the fat little whore. I got a tight hold of her and slit her throat, left ear to right. It was tough, wet, disgusting, too. So weary of it, they threw up – Jack the Ripper".    If that's proof, I don't know what isn't.   Dr. Thomas Neill Cream:   This doctor was hanged for an unrelated murder at Newgate Prison. His executioner, James Billington, swears Cream's last words were "I am Jack the …," Which is weird if your name is Thomas. It was taken by many as a confession to being Jack the Ripper, of course, but being cut off by his execution meant no one managed to quiz him on it. He was in prison at the time of the murders, and the notion that he was out killing prostitutes while a "lookalike" served his prison sentence for him is, to say the least, unlikely.   Mary' Jill the Ripper' Pearcey:   The only female suspect at the time, Mary Pearcey, was convicted of murdering her lover's wife, and some suspect her of being behind the Whitechapel killings as well – though the evidence is pretty much nonexistent. Sherlock creator Sir Arthur Conan Doyle speculated that a woman could have carried around blood-stained clothing without suspicion if she had pretended to be a midwife. DNA results found by an Australian scientist in 2006 suggested the Ripper "may have been a woman" – but only because they were inconclusive.   Michael Ostrog:   Much of Michael Ostrog's life is wreathed in shadow; clearly, this was a man who liked to keep his secrets close to his chest.   Ostrog was born in Russia in approximately 1833. However, we know little of his life until he arrived in the U.K. in 1863. Unfortunately, it seems as though Michael Ostrog had already committed to a life of scams, robbery, and petty theft.   In 1863, he was arrested and jailed for 10 months for trying to rob the University of Oxford. He was also using the alias of 'Max Grief,' a trend that would continue later on in his life.   Michael Ostrog was not considered a Jack the Ripper suspect until his name was mentioned alongside several other notable Ripper suspects in a memorandum in 1894. Sir Melville Macnaghten was the Assistant Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police in London between 1903 and 1913, yet he also played a role in the Whitechapel Murders case. In this memorandum, he proposed Michael Ostrog as one of the most likely Jack the Ripper suspects (in his opinion) alongside Montague John Druitt and Aaron Kosminski.   However, despite Macnaghten's belief in his guilt, it was never proven that Michael Ostrog committed any murders. Thefts, robberies, scams, and fraud – yes, but murders? The evidence remains inconclusive.   Francis Tumblety:   Born in 1833, Francis Tumblety's humble start in life is a mystery. Some sources say that he was born in Ireland, while others suggest he was born in Canada. Regardless, we know that he moved to Rochester, New York, with his family within his life's first decade or so.   Tumblety moved around a lot during the 1850s and 1860s, staying in various places across the U.S. and Canada but never truly settling or finding a permanent home for himself. He posed as a doctor on his travels, claiming to have secret knowledge of mystical cures and medicines from India, but, likely, this was simply fabricated to drum up more business and interest in his services.   He was arrested in Canada twice – once for performing illegal abortions, then again for a patient's sudden, suspicious death. In 1865, Tumblety lived in Missouri under the fake name of 'Dr Blackburn.' However, this backfired spectacularly when he was mistakenly taken for the real Dr. Blackburn, who was actually wanted by police in connection with the murder of Abraham Lincoln! As a result, Francis Tumblety was arrested once again. Dumbass.   Sometime in the intervening years, Tumblety moved across the pond - possibly to escape further arrests - and was known to be living in London by the summer of 1888. He again posed as a doctor and peddled his fabricated trade to unsuspecting Londoners.   The police began to investigate Tumblety in August of that year, possibly because he was a Jack the Ripper suspect and due to the nature of his business. Sadly, the files and notes from the Victorian investigation have been lost over the years. However, many Ripperologists have since weighed in to give their opinions.   Interestingly, at the time, there had been rumors that an American doctor had approached the London Pathology Museum, reportedly in an attempt to purchase the uteruses of deceased women. Could this have been Francis Tumblety, or was it just a strange coincidence? An unusual request, for sure. However, a line of inquiry like this would have been taken extremely seriously by detectives at the height of Jack the Ripper's reign of terror.   Eventually, Tumblety's luck ran out, and on November 7th, 1888, he was arrested in London. Although the arrest specifics are not known today, we see that he was arrested for "unnatural offences," which could have meant several different things. This could also have referred to homosexual relations or rape, as homosexuality was still illegal.   He was released on bail, which crucially means that he was accessible and potentially able to have committed the horrific murder of Mary Jane Kelly on November 9th, 1888. The timeframe fits, and evidently, the police came to this conclusion, too, as Tumblety was subsequently rearrested on November 12th and held on suspicion of murdering Mary Jane Kelly.   Released on bail once again on November 16th, Francis Tumblety took the opportunity to flee London. Instead, he headed to France before returning to the U.S.  Tumblety then did a vanishing act and seemingly disappeared into the ether.   The next few years were a mystery, and Tumblety did not surface again until 1893, five years later. He lived out the remainder of his life in his childhood home in Rochester, New York, where he died in 1903 as a wealthy man.   The evidence certainly seems to point towards Tumblety's guilt, and indeed, the fact that he was arrested multiple times in connection with the Ripper murders suggests that he was undoubtedly one of the police's top Jack the Ripper suspects.   Today, many of the details have been lost over the years. The original Scotland Yard files are missing, meaning that we don't know why Tumblety was charged – or what he was charged with in connection to the Whitechapel Murders. However, we can learn from the arrests that the evidence brought against Tumblety could not have been watertight. Otherwise, he would never have been released on bail. It seems there was still an element of doubt in the minds of the detectives.   David Cohen:   The theory put together, pinning the chilling Whitechapel murders on one David Cohen, claims that this name was actually the 'John Doe' identity given to him at the time. He was taken in when found stumbling through the streets of East End London in December of 1888, a few short months after the autumn of terror. However, it is claimed that Cohen's real name was Nathan Kaminsky, a Polish Jew that matched the description of the wanted man known as 'Leather Apron,' who would later form the pseudonym of Jack the Ripper.   Cohen, born in 1865, was not actually named as a potential suspect in the Jack the Ripper case until Martin Fido's book 'The Crimes, Detection and Death of Jack the Ripper was published in 1987 – almost 100 years later. The book detailed Cohen's alleged erratic and violent behavior, making him a good fit for the killers' profile. As per an 1895 article by Sir Robert Anderson, who was the Assistant Commissioner CID at Scotland Yard at the time of the murders, it becomes apparent that the killer was identified by a witness. The witness, however, refused to come forward in an official capacity, leading Anderson to write, "the only person who had ever had a good view of the murderer unhesitatingly identified the suspect the instant he was confronted with him; but he refused to give evidence against him."   Later, in his 1910 book 'The Lighter Side of My Official Life,' Anderson published a memoir hand-written by ex-Superintendent Donald S. Swanson, in which he named Aaron Kosminski as the suspect who matched the description of a Polish Jew. The passage reads: "The suspect had, at the Seaside Home where he had been sent by us with difficulty in order to subject him to identification, and he knew he was identified."   "On suspect's return to his brother's house in Whitechapel he was watched by the police (City CID) by day & night. In time, the suspect with his hands tied behind his back, he was sent to Stephney Workhouse and then to Colney Hatch and died shortly afterwards - Kosminski was the suspect – DSS."   Last one.   Lastly, on our list is one I didn't know anything about. As I was going through the research Moody so eloquently and diligently accrued, I stumbled up one more suspect.    There is little information about the suspect, but apparently, he was a traveling charioteer with accessibility to and from the White Chapel district during the murders. Unfortunately, his birthdate is unknown, making his age impossible to gauge. The only thing Scotland Yard has on file is a single word found near 2 of the victims and a noise heard by a handful of citizens who were close to the scene of the crimes.   That word was "Candy," and that horrible, unsettling sound was that of a rattling wallet chain...    Honestly, we could go on all day, but everything from here gets pretty convoluted. But, honestly, there's always a link if you stretch it far enough.   https://www.jack-the-ripper.org/films.htm

Los misterios que rodean la identidad del infame asesino en serie de Londres se han vuelto tan complejos como los propios asesinatos, y tanto la policía de Londres, como personas de todo el mundo que se ha interesado en el caso siguen especulando sobre la verdadera identidad de este cruel homicida. Se cree que Jack El Destripador, estaba detrás de los asesinatos de Mary Ann Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes y Mary Jane Kelly. Incluso, hay quienes creen que Jack el Destripador fue responsable de alrededor de once asesinatos diferentes ocurridos en la ciudad de Londres entre 1888 y 1891. Luego de entrevistar a alrededor de 2000 personas, investigar a 300, y detener a 80, la Policía de Londres nunca aclaró completamente sus dudas con respecto a la identidad real de el o los culpables detrás de estos siniestros asesinatos. A continuación, junto a Juan Carlos Boíza, autor de JACK EL DESTRIPADOR EL MITO EQUIVOCADO de Ediciones OBERON, descubriremos nuevas informaciones que nos harán darnos cuenta de la toda la información equivocada que hemos absorbido a lo largo de más de medio siglo.

In 1888, an evil force came to Whitechapel in the East End of London. The streets seemed to have a real-life monster. Over the course of 9 weeks, five victims that have been connected most definitively to Jack the Ripper, would be brutally murdered. These victims are known as the canonical five. Leading up to this episode, we covered each of the victims lives from birth until the movements of their last night.  Knowing more about them, may shed a different light on the killer. Up until now someone has been looking for a person that was hunting sex workers in particular... but maybe, he was just looking for opportunistic victims...Sleeping victim, Victims incapacitated by alcohol or simply wandering the streets at night without a permanent home.Jack the Ripper's case will never be solved, but dive into the case as you may not have seen it before. References & Resources:The Five by Hallie RubenholdThe Devil in White Chapel By Robert KellerThe Cases That Haunt Us by John Douglas & Mark OlshakerBuck's Row Then and Now.

Jack The Ripper has been linked definitively to five victims known as "The Canonical Five". We will cover each of the five victims in their own episode taking them from birth until the night they fell victim to Jack the Ripper.  With this week's episodes, we lead with a narrative outlined in The Five by Hallie Rubenhold, changing what we know or what we may think we know about the victims of Jack the Ripper. These victims were mothers, daughters, sisters, friends and lovers, and they each have a full story, not just a brutal ending.Episode 5 covers the life of Mary Jane Kelly who lived from around 1863 until November 9, 1888.References & Resources:The Five by Hallie RubenholdThe Devil in White Chapel By Robert KellerBuck's Row Then and Now.

Mary Jane Kelly was the final victim of Jack the Ripper. And the mutilation of her body was more horrendous than in any previous murder. But something also sets her apart from the other victims. Her youth, her reputed beauty and the nature of her death have resulted in a strange cult growing up around her. Even her corpse cannot rest in peace... with some demanding that her bones been exhumed for examination. Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.com

Ce soir du 8 novembre, l'air est froid et humide. Le célèbre brouillard Londonien s'insinue petit à petit dans toutes les rues, comme chaque soir. Il est un peu plus de 20h et, en cet automne, il fait déjà nuit noire depuis bien longtemps. Mary Jane est fatiguée, elle aimerait rester dans sa petite chambre, se reposer, mais elle doit travailler. Il lui faut rapidement trouver de l'argent. Elle doit cinq semaines de loyers à son propriétaire. Assise, les yeux dans le vague, elle hésite un moment, se lève de son lit, regarde par la fenêtre, et frissonne à l'idée d'avoir à sortir dans la nuit et le froid. Mais elle n'a pas vraiment le choix. Elle enfile son manteau noir, et sort de chez elle à la recherche d'un client. Où se rend-elle alors ? Les témoignages divergent. Certains disent l'avoir vu au Ten Bells, d'autres au Britannia, deux pubs des environs. Ce qui est certain, c'est qu'à 23h45, une voisine, prostituée elle aussi, aperçoit Mary Jane sur Commercial Street. Elle est ivre et marche en compagnie d'un homme corpulent d'environ 35 ans, moustachu, pauvrement vêtu d'un long manteau et coiffé d'un chapeau rond. Il a une pinte de bière à la main. Les deux femmes se disent bonsoir puis Mary Jane rentre chez elle accompagnée de l'homme. C'est la dernière fois qu'un témoin a vu Mary Jane Kelly vivante. Rentrant chez elle au bras de son client, elle ne peut alors imaginer qu'elle va devenir tristement célèbre dans le monde entier, que plus d'un siècle plus tard, on parlerait encore d'elle. Mary Jane Kelly va dans quelques minutes devenir la 5ème et ultime victime du plus célèbre serial killer de l'histoire.Texte: Bertrand BichaudVoix: François BerlandEncore plus de Podcast à écouter ici sur PODCAST STORY

Welcome to Episode 15! We are rounding out our spooky month with the other side of the tale that many know so well about Jack the Ripper. While most people will be recounting the details and mystery of Jack the Ripper and his heinous crimes during this time of year, we are going to turn the spotlight on the women whose lives were taken. We are here to perpetuate the narrative that historian and author Hallie Rubenhold brings to light in her 2020 book The Five: The Untold Lives of the Women Killed by Jack the Ripper as well as her brand new podcast Bad Women: The Ripper Retold from Pushkin Industries. Polly Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elisabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes and Mary Jane Kelly are considered the 5 canonical (generally accepted) victims of the Victorian England serial killer dubbed "Jack the Ripper." While the mystery of the case is very interesting, to many at least, the women at the center of the mystery were human beings first and foremost. They were wives, mothers, daughters, sisters, friends. We hope you enjoy this (extra long!) special episode to finish out spooky month! **We are in no way affiliated with Ms. Rubenhold, her publisher or Pushkin Industries. We just love the work she is doing and wanted to help tell the stories of these women** *~*~*~*~*~*~ At the top of tonight's episode, we included a content and trigger warning as running themes through each of these stories include domestic abuse, sexual assault, suicide and predominately, alcohol abuse.

In 1888 a series of brutal killings took place in Whitechapel, London which might be the most famous unsolved murders of all time. The case and the killer attracted a worldwide media frenzy like never before and the perpetrator nicknamed Jack the Ripper has gone down in infamy. But an obsession to identify the killer both then and now has meant that the victims of these terrible crimes have been largely forgotten. Polly Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes, and Mary Jane Kelly all met their end at the hands of this monstrous killer and their lives deserve to be remembered.Joining Dan to try and help put the victims back at the centre of this case is Hallie Rubenhold host of the new podcast Bad Women: Ripper Retold. Hallie has worked to explore in-depth the lives of the Ripper's victims and the issues that contributed to their deaths, such as homelessness, addiction, domestic violence, and prostitution.

Desde el infierno nos llegan susurros de los múltiples nombres del destripador. Su quinta y última víctima cae y tras la muerte de la pobre Mary Jane Kelly la prensa se da un festín inmenso de sangre. Sale a la luz el perfil del FBI del asesino ¿Quién pudo haber sido Jack? ¿Un abogado, un cirujano, un simple carnicero o un médico de la realeza? Las teorías más populares no siempre son las más acertadas.

But was he also Jack the Ripper? Journalist Simon Ford and former major-crime detective Jacques Morrell plunge into the life and brutal times of this Victorian enigma. Deeming's career spanned the globe – Australia, South Africa, Latin America – under a catalogue of aliases. He was an unscrupulous psychopath who would stop at nothing to cheat the wealthy and defend his freedom. A contemporary of Jack the Ripper, some theorize he was Jack. But does the evidence support the theory? What propelled Deeming on his international rampage anyway? And how was he stopped?The Six O'clock Knock is a Psycho Killer production.Transcript[Music] This podcast contains descriptions of death and violence that some listeners may find upsetting. Hello and welcome to the Six O'clock Knock, coming to you from the National Justice Museum in Nottingham, England I'm Simon Ford a writer and broadcaster and I'm Jacques Morrell a former major crime detective the National Justice Museum is based in Nottingham's former courts and county jail you've probably seen it on tv and not even realized it because when they need a grand Victorian courtroom this is where they send the cameras and our case today would have been tried in a court like this it's a murder hunt that spanned the British Empire at a time when Britain's imperial power was at its zenith Britannia ruled the waves and Jack The Ripper terrorized the alleyways of Whitechapel indeed the murderer in our story could have been Jack The Ripper so come with us as we step back in time to the closing decades of the 19th century john Samford stood with his back to the bedroom door a pickaxe over his shoulder and a look of grim determination on his face not only had his tenant left the rented house without notice but the woman who was lined up to replace him had backed out complaining of a disagreeable smell in the second bedroom Samford butcher and landlord was determined to get to the bottom of it he and the estate agent Mr Connop faced the fireplace the agent held a handkerchief over his nose and mouth his face was the colour of putty Samford swung the pickaxe into the fresh concrete underneath the hearthstone it yielded like a pie crust instantly the smell became stronger Connop choked blurted something about breathing and turned towards the open window Samford swung again a chunk of concrete came away another swing the fluke of the pickaxe found something softer despite the unbearable stench Samford bent down and using both hands shifted a substantial slab of concrete what he saw had auburn hair and the remains of a face [Music] the date is the 3rd of march 1892. the place Andrew street Melbourne in the then colony of Victoria Australia john Samford had just discovered the remains of Emily Mather who'd been living in the house with a foreign gentleman representing himself as a toolmaker's engineer Samford had been attracted by the fellow's respectable heir and the fact that he paid six weeks rent in advance but then he'd left suddenly and reports of a lingering odour started soon afterwards a post-mortem examination found that Emily made his skull had been bashed in and her throat had been cut the hunt for the killer spanned the British empire from the beginning the press connected the murder with the despicable crimes of Jack The Ripper the age newspaper reported that from the outset a suspicion of insanity is almost suggested and a tinge of the white chapel murders is hinted the body hacked and mangled the cool manner in which the cementing was carried out the taking of a house etc the laborious obliteration of all traces of the crime all these things suggest the malevolence and craft of which can scarcely accompany the sane murderer no matter how callous and brutal the story that unfolded in the wake of Emily Mayer's murder began at Ashby-de-la-Zouch in Leicestershire in the summer of 1853 with the birth of young Frederick Bailey demon Deeming's parents were working class his father Thomas was a brasier by all accounts Deeming had a terrible childhood often suffering horrific beatings from his father who tried to commit suicide by cutting his throat on four occasions and ended up dying insane in a workhouse young Fred had it was said an unnaturally strong relationship with his mother Anne she was a Sunday school teacher who often force-fed her youngest son her views on the bible it said that Deeming became obsessed with sin and punishment the youngest of three boys he was a difficult child he ran away to see at the age of 16 and embarked on a life of theft obtaining money under false pretences and ultimately as we're to hear murder Deeming became a consummate con artist fraudster and bigamist it was this downward spiral that led him to become associated some say conclusively with Jack The Ripper [Music] in February 1881 Deeming married Marie James in Tranmere a suburb of Birkenhead on the Wirral in north west England the couple lived briefly in Birkenhead before making the sea passage to Melbourne Australia by 1886 Deeming and Marie had two Australian-born daughters bertha and Marie junior two years later Deeming wrote to his brothers Alfred and Walter he and the family were returning to England he boasted with a considerable fortune so is this the part where Deeming stops his galivanting settles down and becomes a respectable citizen it wouldn't be much of a story if he did would it in fact this is where it becomes obvious that Deeming is living a double life or i should more accurately say one of several alternative lives he lived concurrently until he was caught Jacques in your career investigating serious crime is living a double life a common criminal characteristic most certainly men behave differently when in new circumstances they try to impress and to big themselves up add to the criminal aspect and whoa it becomes a convoluted cover story so Simon what do we know about Deeming's movements between 1888 and 89 well it's a bit sketchy Maurice Gurvich and Christopher Wray wrote the Scarlet Thread. a book about Deeming in his crimes they found he was in South Africa for a time and was involved in a diamond mine swindle in Transvaal it looks like Marie and the children stayed at home in Birkenhead Marie had another baby anyway Deeming drew attention to himself while returning to England on the steamship Yumna flashing cash and jewellery generally making a nuisance of himself with some of the female passengers ss Yumna docked at Hull on the east coast of England in November 1889. i daresay the captain was glad to see the back of the ostentatious Frederick Bailey Deeming Jacques if you were in possession of the facts and had the opportunity would you be waiting on the key side for a kind of nautical Six O'clock Knock you know to ask Deeming what he'd been up to to get rich so quickly the police are naturally interested in unexplained wealth but i think it's early days on any investigation that said I'm sure that with the safety of the ship being paramount the captain would have thought very carefully about this nuisance passenger he may well have turned him into the police for something that happened on board ship maybe her majesty's customs and excise would have been interested in him perhaps to throw the authorities off his scent Deeming takes up lodgings in the nearby town of Beverley under the name Harry Lawson passing himself off as a retired sheep farmer from Queensland living on fifteen hundred pounds a year now that makes him a millionaire in today's money we've seen this before Simon the ant whistle case English guy arrives in America rents an expensive house tells everyone he's due a load of money from the government when he's actually out of work and owed nothing it was all a deception it's reasonable to speculate that this pot of gold coupled with Deeming's silver tongue is what bowls Helen Matheson the 21 year old daughter of Deeming's landlady clean off her feet Deeming bigamously married nelly as she was affectionately known on the 18th of February 1890 almost nine years to the day since he married Marie James in Tranmere a port city on the opposite side of the country what is it they say about sailors having a girl in every port yeah Fred Deeming or Harry Lawson as i should call him is the living proof I'd like to take a moment now to compare Jack The Ripper's timeline with Frederick Deeming's [Music] Jack The Ripper murdered his five victims Marianne Nichols Annie Chapman Elizabeth Stride Catherine Eddoes and Mary Jane Kelly between August and November 1888. this was around the time when Deeming was supposedly in South Africa pulling off his diamond mine scan it would take three weeks to travel by steamship from Liverpool to cape town so did Deeming allow himself a three month stopover in the east end of London indulging in a killing spree before continuing his sea voyage well I'm not well versed in the finer details of the Ripper case but first impressions the Ripper was killing sex workers and targeting them Deeming is more of a traveller who lays on the charm and forms relationships with women I'd need to see something more than we just don't know where he was during the period of the white chapel murders so let's leave white chapel and travel the 200 and something miles north east to hull because after a honeymoon with Helen Matheson Deeming disappears and promptly leaves for Uruguay the police are waiting for him when he docks in Montevideo and arrest him for another swindle this time at a jewellers in hull he used forged checks to get 286 pounds worth of jewellery that's Read more:

This is the final episode of our series on the women murdered by Jack the Ripper. Mary Jane Kelly, generally considered the fifth and final victim, was found dead on November 9, 1888. Stock Media provided by sounddogs / Pond5

In 1888, in the Whitechapel district of London, a strange and awful series of events occurred. Women began turning up dead and graphically mutilated right out in the open air. It wasn't long before these horrific murders were all linked to the same unknown man, a man in dark coat and a hat, a man who targeted female sex workers who were down on their luck, a man who would come to be known as, Jack The Ripper. This is it fiends, the granddaddy of all true crime cases and we are diving deep, but not just into "Jack", into the women who's lives he tragically cut short. This week, in our second Ripper episode we will cover the remainder of the ripper's victims, beginning with the final three of the canonical 5: Elizabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes and Mary Jane Kelly, and finishing with debatable ripper victims: Rose Mylett, Alice McKenzie, "The Pinchin Street Torso", and Frances Coles.  In week three we will be covering evidence, investigations and suspects, AND we will have a special guest to break down all the science for us. A real live forensic scientist will be joining us to help sort through which theories have weight and which we can discount, and give us his expert opinion on who exactly "Jack the Ripper" was.

Jack the Ripper has dominated the consciousness of the British public and crime fiction since the Victorian era.  In late 1888, 5 gruesome murders occurred in London’s Whitechapel and the legend of the Ripper was born.  The man on his trail was the surgeon and pathologist Thomas Bond, an expert in forensics and the medical detective who wrote the world’s first criminal profile. Mary Ann Nichols (found August 31, 1888), Annie Chapman (found September 8, 1888), Elizabeth Stride (found September 30, 1888), Catherine Eddowes (also found September 30, 1888), and Mary Jane Kelly (found November 9, 1888).  These women were the tragic victims of these appalling crimes.This was the beginning of serious pathology and the initial steps into unravelling the minds and behaviour of criminals and killers.  Thomas Bond was a classic Victorian, a man who had been at the front during the Austro-Prussian war, who prided himself on riding to hounds with every hunt in England and whose suggested cure for depression was a pint of burgundy and a pint of champagne on alternative days of the week.  His was a world of grime discoveries and Holmesian like sleuthing.  Yet time, injury and the dark aspects of his work were to take their toll.  Bond became a laudanum addict and in 1901 threw himself to his death.  His pioneering work laid the foundation for police forensics and offender profiling today.So it GoesTom Assheton & James Jackson Reading by David Hartley of Dr Thomas Bond's police report and profile of Jack the RipperSee also:https://www.instagram.com/bloodyviolenthistory/https://www.jamesjacksonbooks.comhttps://www.tomtom.co.uk If you enjoy the podcast, would you please leave a short review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes, Spotify or Google Podcast App?

Of the five women who died in the Autumn of 1888 at the hands of Jack the Ripper, the most salient thing that has remained in the public imagination has been the brutal manner of their murders. While the identity of the murderer has been the subject of relentless, salacious speculation, only now have the stories of those who were killed been told. Hallie Rubenhold’s landmark publication, The Five, reconstructs the lost lives of Mary Ann 'Polly' Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes and Mary Jane Kelly. So compelling is Rubenhold’s book that it won last year’s Baillie Gifford Prize for Non-Fiction. In this event redorded for the 2020 Book Festival, Rubenhold discusses a new essay, The Problem with Great Men, commissioned by Edinburgh International Book Festival as a follow-up to The Five, with support from Baillie Gifford and the Baillie Gifford Prize for Non-Fiction. Many people are calling into question the histories handed down to us by our ancestors. With statues of so-called ‘great men’ being torn down, how can we celebrate ordinary people who – like the Ripper’s victims – have routinely been airbrushed out of history? Rubenhold discusses her ideas with Scottish broadcaster Sheena McDonald. Please note: there is no PDF download of Rubenhold’s new essay, as mentioned in the event.

Join me for the penultimate episode of this mini-series where we’ll examine the death of the final canonical victim, in a bloodbath so unimaginable that it has become one of the most memorable Ripper murders, symbolic of his spiralling descent closer and closer to hell. We’ll look at Mary Jane Kelly’s life and try to understand the strange testimony of the witnesses as we encounter a visitor dressed in astrakhan, a man with a sinister black bag bothering women in the area, a missing key and more.***Don’t forget to rate and review on your favourite Podcatcher***No part of this episode may be reproduced or copied in any form without the written permission of Prash’s Murder Map.Thanks for listening!

The Victims of Jack the Ripper - #11 Not Another Conspiracy PodcastMake sure you join the Discord: https://discord.gg/mUcsuV7and if you're interested join our Patreon: http://www.patreon.com/notanotherconspiracyIn 1888 a string of murders occurred on the grim streets of Whitechapel in East London that would give birth to one of the world's most notorious serial killers and one of crimes greatest mysteries to ever be left unsolved. Jack The Ripper stalked the streets of White Chapel, London. Attacks ascribed to Jack the Ripper typically involved female prostitutes who lived and worked in the slums of the East End of London whose throats were cut prior to abdominal mutilations. The removal of internal organs from at least three of the victims led to proposals that their killer had some anatomical or surgical knowledge. Rumours that the murders were connected intensified in September and October 1888, and numerous letters were received by media outlets and Scotland Yard from individuals purporting to be the murderer. The name "Jack the Ripper" originated in a letter written by an individual claiming to be the murderer that was disseminated in the media. The letter is widely believed to have been a hoax and may have been written by journalists in an attempt to heighten interest in the story and increase their newspapers' circulation. The "From Hell" letter received by George Lusk of the Whitechapel Vigilance Committee came with half of a preserved human kidney, purportedly taken from one of the victims. The public came increasingly to believe in a single serial killer known as "Jack the Ripper", mainly because of both the extraordinarily brutal nature of the murders, and media coverage of the crimes.Extensive newspaper coverage bestowed widespread and enduring international notoriety on the Ripper, and the legend solidified. A police investigation into a series of eleven brutal murders committed in Whitechapel and Spitalfields between 1888 and 1891 was unable to connect all the killings conclusively to the murders of 1888. Five victims—Mary Ann Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes, and Mary Jane Kelly—are known as the "canonical five" and their murders between 31 August and 9 November 1888 are often considered the most likely to be linked. The murders were never solved, and the legends surrounding these crimes became a combination of historical research, folklore, and pseudohistory. ----- Follow us:Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/notanothercon Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/notanotherconspiracy Join the Discord: https://discord.gg/mUcsuV7Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/not-another-conspiracy-podcast.

Hello dear listeners, and welcome back to another episode of The ODDentity Podcast on the PodMoth Media Network, your weekly foray into the weird, wonky, and sometimes downright spooky. After completing the research on Jack the Ripper last week, I came to the realization that this topic is so large that it actually needs a part 3. So, this week I'll tackle the last 2 canonical Ripper victims and also discuss the top 5 suspects for Jack the Ripper as well as take a look at more recent suspicions of who the Ripper may have been. I was going to incorporate all of the remaining information into a second episode but felt that the victims of Jack the Ripper deserved the extra airtime.

The case is undoubtedly the most infamous murder-mystery in history. “Jack the Ripper” is the name given to the unidentified serial killer that murdered and mutilated five female prostitutes in London in 1888. While there have been over 100 theories presented on the Ripper’s true identity, renowned “Ripperologist” Martin Fido suggests that a violent, anti-social man named “David Cohen” is the true killer, partly because Cohen’s incarceration at an insane asylum happened to coincide with the end of the murders. Although various letters were sent to the press by the alleged killer, one with a human kidney, the case of the Ripper murders will possibly forever remain unsolved.

Created, produced, and directed by radio actor/director Elliott Lewis, the program was a historical true crime series, examining crimes and murders from the past. It grew out of Lewis' personal interest in famous murder cases and took a documentary-like approach to the subject, carefully recreating the facts, personages and feel of the time period. Comparatively little dramatic license was taken with the facts and events, but the tragedy was leavened with humor, expressed largely through the narration. The crimes dramatized generally covered a broad time and place frame from ancient Greece to late 19th-century America. Each episode in the series was co-written by Morton Fine and David Friedkin, in consultation with Lewis, although the scripting process was more a matter of research, as the stories were "adapted from the original court reports and newspaper accounts" or from the works of historians. The cases ranged from famous assassinations (of Abraham Lincoln, Leon Trotsky, and Julius Caesar) and the lives (and often deaths) of the likes of Cesare Borgia and Blackbeard to more obscure cases, such as Bathsheba Spooner, who killed her husband Joshua Spooner in 1778 and became the first woman tried and executed in America. The only continuing character was the host/narrator, Thomas Hyland, played by Lou Merrill. Hyland was introduced by the announcer as a "connoisseur of crime, student of violence, and teller of murders." Merrill's deadpan portrayal of Hyland provided the welcome note of tongue-in-cheek humor to the proceedings. Unlike the ghoulish weird storytellers of The Whistler and The Mysterious Traveler, Hyland was an ordinary fellow who, in a dry, droll manner, would present a tale from his files, his wry comments interspersed between dramatized scenes. The episodes would typically begin with Hyland inviting the audience to listen to a sound, from drops of rain to horses' hooves, and then introducing the main players and events of his report. The titles also contributed to the series' light tone, as they were intentionally pompous and usually laced with irony. Typical titles included "Your Loving Son, Nero," "If a Body Needs a Body, Just Call Burke and Hare," and "The Axe and the Droot Family... How They Fared". A roster of Hollywood radio actors filled the various historical roles. William Conrad was one of the more frequently heard performers, in such diverse parts as Nero, Blackbeard, Pat Garrett and King Arthur. Other performers, and the villains and victims they portrayed, included Jack Kruschen (as William Burke and Trotsky assassin Ramón Mercader), Jay Novello (as William Hare and Dr. William Palmer), Mary Jane Croft (as Bathsheba Spooner and Madame de Brinvilliers), Betty Lou Gerson (as Agrippina and Lucrezia Borgia), Edgar Barrier (as Julius Caesar), Harry Bartell (as Brutus), Hans Conried (as Ali Pasha), Herb Butterfield (as Lincoln, Trotsky, and Thomas Edwin Bartlett), Jack Edwards (as John Wilkes Booth and Cole Younger), Irene Tedrow (as Lizzie Borden), William Johnstone (as Robert Knox), Betty Harford (as Madeleine Smith and Ripper victim Mary Jane Kelly), Eve McVeagh as Madame Marie Lafarge, Clayton Post (as Jesse James), and Sam Edwards (as Billy the Kid and Bob Younger).

The victims of Jack the Ripper, the most famous serial killer in the world, are known to us mostly by their autopsy photos. On the conclusion to our WOMEN OF JACK THE RIPPER series, historian Hallie Rubenhold comes on the podcast to illuminate the rough and tragically brief lives of Mary Ann Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elisabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes, and Mary Jane Kelly—the canonical five. Hallie is the author of The Five: The Untold Lives of the Women Killed by Jack the Ripper.  (Become a Patreon supporter for rewards and bonus content!)

Whitby, Ontario is in southeastern Ontario and is what we would consider a suburb of Toronto. The name is Danish and means "White Village." The original surveyor of the area chose the town names here from towns in northeastern England, so Whitby is named for the seaport in Yorkshire. Camp 30 was an urban explorers playground with several abandoned, crumbling buildings just waiting to be explored. This was a former school for delinquent boys and World War II prisoner-of-war camp that housed Nazis. While things were good for the prisoners, life at the school for the boys was horrible and several died. This has left behind some spiritual residue.The Whitby Psychiatric Hospital was run like many of the asylums in America. Abuses and deaths here seem to have led to hauntings. The Centennial Building is a former courthouse that now seems to be a haunted theater. The Trafalgar Castle School is built to look like a castle and just like so many castles, it seems to be home to some spirits. Join us and Karen Wickiam, host of the STAT podcast, as we look at several locations in Whitby, Ontario that have a reputation for being haunted! The Moment in Oddity features Hypha Tombicina makes mummies and This Month in History features Mary Jane Kelly killed by Jack the Ripper.
