Best Answer

Jack The Ripper is an unidentified serial killer most active in London's impoverished east end, or the Whitechapel district. Beginning in the spring of 1888, JTR killed between 5 and 13 women*, cutting their throats first and then disemboweling and mutilating them, and then slipping into the night and disappearing. The killer was never identified.

*The number of victims is still hotly debated but the total is most likely closer to 13 than to 5.

We are not sure exactly how many women Jack the Ripper killed, but five are usually considered definite. According to reports by doctors at the scene, during autopsies, and at the inquests:

Mary Ann "Polly" Nichols was strangled before her throat was slit. There was a deep, jagged wound in her abdomen, along with several other cuts and stab wounds.

Annie Chapman's throat had been slit and her abdomen cut open. Her intestines were removed and placed around her shoulders. Her uterus, part of her vagina, and part of her bladder had been removed and taken by the killer.

Elizabeth Stride's throat was cut, but either the Ripper was interrupted and had to leave before doing anything more, or she was killed by someone other than Jack the Ripper, because that was the extent of her injuries.

Catherine Eddowes' throat was slit and her face mutilated by cuts. A long deep gash ran from her breast to just above her legs, and she had been stabbed in various places. Her intestines were arranged around her. Her left kidney and part of her uterus were gone.

Mary Kelly was cut up beyond recognition. The extension of her mutilations are too many to list. Pieces of her were removed and arranged around the room (she was murdered inside, unlike the others who were outdoors). In places she had been skinned. Her heart was missing. Her face barely looks human in the photo; she had to be identified by her hair or eyes.

There is no evidence of sexual assault on any of the victims.

Complete testimonies by the doctors can be read online or in various books.

He sliced the throat of every victim. In some cases he ripped open their abdominal region and took their innards and placed them on their face and shoulder area. I believe he also cut one woman from her anus to her vagina, making it all one big hole. Pretty sick stuff...

Jack The Ripper was incredibly brutal, cutting his victim's throats first and then disemboweling and mutilating them. Sometimes taking with him their internal organs.
