Sucellos Posted September 11, 2014 #51 Share Posted September 11, 2014 Here is another take on the story in a book review for Russell Edwards in the LA times. http://www.latimes.c...0909-story.html# seems this might be just another hoax of sorts to sell books. If you can't trust the Daily Mail...lol. So in 2002 was DNA taken from a stamp from a Ripperletter should have been from Walter Sickert. In 2006 DNA from stamps on claimed Ripperletters revealed female DNA. 2014. a scarf with sperm from the attacker and blood from the victim... DNA was from a polish man. In my opinion a scraf with sperm, from a prostitute, doesnt proof its the sperm of the murderer. And since it seems they didnt washed things often, Because in 126 years the scarf wasnt washed. Its a miracle there is only sperm found from one man. Who knows maybe the polish haircutter had an affair with the police, who stole the scarf, his wife..... What always puzzles me most in the Ripper case was, why did he stopped? Or didnt he realy stopped? And was there ever a Jack the ripper and where the murders not from the same man? Who was the journalist who wrote first about the events. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DefenceMinisterMishkin Posted September 11, 2014 #52 Share Posted September 11, 2014 I think it was H.H Holmes, the guy that built that murder house, and who just also happened to travel to london in 1888 waiting for his murder house to be completed before returning once complete.

Who was the journalist who wrote first about the events. according to that review, the scarf was never on any list of evidence taken from the scene. so do we even know if this scarf is evidence at all?

timewarrior Posted September 11, 2014 #54 Share Posted September 11, 2014 I think it was H.H Holmes, the guy that built that murder house, and who just also happened to travel to london in 1888 waiting for his murder house to be completed before returning once complete. This is the Timewarrior speaking. Unlikely. . .different modus of operandi. . .Either a sailor or possibly someone who lived nearby. There was an interesting documentary about Jack the Ripper in America. . .particularly it was a sailor who may have been in England around the time of murders and who was eventually caught red handed doing similar murders in New York shortly after the murders ended. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antilles Posted September 24, 2014 #55 Share Posted September 24, 2014 1. The scarf has no serious, proven beyond doubt provenance that ties it to cathy Eddowes. Hearsay is not proof. 2. The DNA testing names one mitochondrial donor, not the 2nd donor. Why not name the 2nd? I'm thinking because there is no 2nd backup donor. This need a lot more evidence.
