After the 1889 murder of Alice McKenzie, an intoxicated William Wallace Brodie walked into a police station and declared that he was Jack the Ripper. However, there is proof that he was sailing to South Africa on September 6, 1888. He didn't return to England until July 15, 1889, which means he couldn't have killed four of the canonical five, which means he was not the murderer we know as Jack the Ripper.
