No one can say the ripper lived until ww1. After the murder of Mary Kelly, Jack the Ripper mysteriously stopped his attacks. After that there were few murders that could be his. Jack made his crimes in 1888. The ww1 began in July 1914. That gives us 24 years. When the ripper was active, murders likes his were being investigated in the US, in Mexico, South America and other places and I don't believe in a worldwide ripper mania. 1888 was a time were medical knowledge were not improved specially in the area of psychiatry. Sociopaths, psychopaths and paranoid schizophrenics were not quite understood. For sociopaths there is no drug or treatment but for paranoid schizophrenics there are treatments and drugs.

The one thing we can say for sure, is that the ripper was alive in 1888 and maybe a few years after that. Nobody can say for sure the ripper lived until ww1.

What has dorset street got to do with the Jack the Ripper murders?

By 1901 the murders committed by "Jack the Ripper" were slowly fading from the memories of the East End inhabitants. The murder of Elizabeth Roberts on the 26th November 1898 by her sister Kate Marshall brought "The Ripper's" name back into the public's attention only because Elizabeth Roberts was murdered in the room directly above 13 Millers Court, Dorset Street, where Mary Kelly was butchered on the 9th November 1888. Dorset Street the scene of the last murder attributed to "Jack the Ripper", had changed little if at all by 1901, "The Cardiff Weekly News" of Saturday 1st June 1901 was of the opinion: Dorset-street is a narrow, dirty street leading off Commercial-street, Spitalfields, and is one of those sordid thoroughfares which might with advantage to the community be swept out of existence.

What did Jack the Ripper send to the police?

Hundreds of letters were sent to authorities from people claiming to know Jack the Ripper or claiming to be Jack the Ripper. They were all probably fake, but one was sent along with a human kidney and could have actually been from the murderer. Or it could have come from a medical student with a stupid sense of humor. ------------------------------------------------ Previous Answer: there were 2 fake letters what impersonantors wrote and 1 real one from the real jack the ripper. Of the hundreds of letters that were sent to Scotland Yard in the wake of the Ripper crimes, only a handful were deemed authentic. But many of those letters were materials that an artist would have. Resin, art pencils, ect. In the 2002 book, Jack The Ripper Case Closed, author Patricia Cornwell had those 'bogus' letters, cards, and drawings analyzed and they were consistant with the Impressionist Victorian painter named Walter R. Sickert. Anyone who knew Sickert would know how much he loved to write letters to friends, buisinesses, and most of the newspapers. He could write dozens of letters just to newspapers in one day.
