What do people think about Jack the Ripper?

Answer 1

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.//
