There are not and never have been a shortage of theories about Jack The Ripper. There are the conspiracy theories that involve the Queen, Prince Albert and/or Sir Wm. Gull, the Queen's doctor. There was always talk that Scotland Yard knew who the Ripper was and instead of arrest he was commited to the insane asylum. There is the theory that the Ripper had to be a doctor ar have medical knowledge. Some others include the Freemasons, Jill the Ripper, Inspector Aberline as the killer, Jews, sailors, butchers, furriers, several well known actors, and these are only a few. Unfortunatly, theories don't make a case nor can they be proven in a court of law. So Jack The Ripper remains a mystery over 120 years after his crimes.
