We do not know for sure, but five women are usually considered definite Ripper victims. Three others are possible, though likelihood varies between them.

There was nothing to go on but the remains of the victims. Even today it takes quite some time to catch a murderer on the run, but in the case of Jack the Ripper, there were many aspects police today would not come across.
How many women were killed in Whitechapel by Jack the Ripper?
The files kept by the Metropolitan Police show that the investigation opened in 1888 encompassed eleven murders from 3rd April 1888 to 13th February 1891 and were known as the Whitechapel Murders. Amongst this eleven murders investigated by the police, five are almost universally agreed upon as having been the work of the Ripper. However there were other murders and there is no absolute proof that the Ripper killed only the 5 or even this 5. Numerous authors proffer numerous possibilities of identity for the Ripper and the actual number of murders. So the whole Ripper scenario is just shrouded in mystery - everyone can have their pet theory that cannot be proven or disproven. In fact apart from the fact that there were murders, nothing is known for sure - perhaps 'Jack the Ripper' was a woman?

Facts about the murder of Jack The Ripper?
Jack The Ripper is the name for an unidentified killer active in 1880's London. There are many myths related to this most famous serial killer so just the facts are needed. He was never caught. His victims were homeless, alcoholic prostitutes that worked and lived in London's east end district called Whitechapel. All of his victims were killed with a knife, throats cut, and then mutilations and some organ removal.* The number of victims is still unknown but it is estimated that the number is at least 12 to 13 and possibly more. There is no proof whatsoever that the Ripper was a man of medicine. He did not disappear after the murder of Mary Kelly. The Ripper's crimes were sexually motivated but there was no evidence of actual rapes of any of the victims. The most important aspect of the Ripper is there are so many untruths that over the years are taken as fact. After such a long time the theories magically become truths. It's essential that we deal in only facts. These were horrible crimes committed against women that had no chance at all. There is nothing romantic about the Ripper case. He was no different than John Wayne Gacy or Gary Leon Ridgeway. These are the worst kind of men that believe themselves to be above the law. *Victim Elizabeth Stride was the exception as she was not mutilated like the others. The Ripper was nearly caught when during Stride's murder he was interrupted, thus had time to only cut her throat before making a hasty retreat.
What do people think about Jack the Ripper?
But seriously, Jack the Ripper (JR) is by far the most well known serial killer in the world. In fact, his "style" inspired many future serial killers. He distinctly targeted prostitutes, strangling them before cutting out some of their vital organs. Sometimes, he even took some with him. His "legacy" affected the world greatly, he even has his own field of study, ripperology, and his own magazine, The Ripperologist. Not bad for a psychotic serial killer with a serious fetish for internal organs. //There is much false information that has followed the Ripper case from its beginnings. The victims of the Ripper were never strangled. It is virtually impossible to kill a person by strangulation without breaking the hyoid bone located in the neck. None of the Ripper victims suffered a fractured hyoid bone nor was there any petechia noted on any of the bodies. Strangulation is just one of many 'truths' that have become prevailant in this case, but they simply are not a fact.//
Were the Jack The Ripper murders Masonic?
Whether Jack The Ripper was a Mason, we won't know until he is identified. But the murders themselves had nothing to do with anything Masonic. The man behind the Ripper was a sexual predator whose brain combined sex, violence and power. Some men like blondes, the Ripper was excited by violent sex and domination of his victims. There are enough theories to fill books, movies and websites many times over. Many have speculated about the Masonic conspiracies for over a century. In fact they have become synonamous with this case, not through fact or evidence but through ignorance of crime and criminal behaviour.
