Ripperologist and author Russel Edwards has claimed that the DNA evidence from a shawl belonging to one of the victims, Catherine Eddowes, containing the DNA of the killer, has had a “100% match” with a Polish barber named Aaron Kosminski, who had moved to the UK in the 1880s. The analysis claims to have solved the long-standing mystery around the identity of one of the most brutal serial killers in history.

Michael Hawley actively researches the 1888 unsolved Jack the Ripper murders mystery, placing particular emphasis upon prime suspect Dr. Francis Tumblety. He is the author of Dr. Francis Tumblety & the Railway Ripper (2023), Jack the Ripper Suspect Dr. Francis Tumblety (2018), and The Ripper's Haunts (2016).

Jack the Ripper. The unknown serial killer murdered and mutilated at least five women in the East End of London in 1888.Every time he gave the police the slip. He only made one mistake – dropping a piece of apron ripped from his fourth victim. Catherine Eddowes was murdered in Mitre Square in the City of London. A copper found the apron piece in Goulston Street, less than half a mile away in Whitechapel.So, what was the East End like at the time of the killings? And how would a modern homicide team investigate them?Jacques Morrell and Simon Ford joined Ripperologist, Mick Priestley, on a tour of Jack the Ripper's backyard.

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!

From that day on a new "Ripperologist" was born.

Paul Begg is the author of numerous books, all of which should be required reading for anyone who has in interest in history, plus, if I could, I would hire Mr. Begg to be the voice over narrator for my everyday life!!

EPISODE 144: WHO WAS JACK THE RIPPER On episode 144, authors T. Fox Dunham & Phil Thomas talk with Australian author, Paul Williams about one of the most infamous murderers in history, Jack the Ripper. The story of Red Jack obsesses Paul, and he researched and co-wrote a book detailing all the suspects in this unsolved cold-case: Jack the Ripper Suspects: The Definitive Guide and Encyclopedia. He’s also published several articles in the magazine, Ripperologist, along with stories for Doctor Who: Short Trips and other anthologies. The three discuss the details of the case, its possible political motivations and Jack’s identity. As Phil and Fox learn, these murders were unique because of social tensions created by Irish immigration, Jewish refugees escaping Russian pogroms and the Catholic population still living in the country.   Paul Williams also shares his new story, “Atonement of the Ripper”—narrated by the amazing English folksinger, David Walton. Published here for the first time, the story reflects several political themes from the Jack the Ripper murders, which were thought to be politically motivated. Historians believe that Jack acted like a homicidal vigilante who sought to enforce his code of morality. Atonement tells the story of Aaron, a refugee who escaped the Holocaust in Europe to live with his family and other refugees in London; however, prejudice is universal. Paul’s story is not for the weak of heart! It depicts not only violent acts but also horrible acts of prejudice.

Tessa takes a trip across the pond to the gorgeous UK where she has a intense conversation with Ripperologist, Russell Stephen Edwards. Take a walk through the Whitechapel District, where the topic is all things Jack the Ripper.

Did the creators miss opportunities to explore new angles on The Devil In The White City's already well-told tale? And why must Ripperologist crackpots insist that famous people are also "Saucy Jacky"? All this and much laughing at wretched re-enactments on the latest TBP. Learn more about your ad choices.
