"Jack the Ripper" is a pseudonym in that it is a false name which conceals the true identity of the person to whom it refers. However, in this case it would be more accurately described as a soubriquet, as it is a type of nickname imposed by someone other than the person to whom it refers. The murderer now generally referred to as "Jack the Ripper" was originally known as "The Whitechapel Murderer". An letter signed "Jack the Ripper", purportedly written by the killer, was sent to the press during the series of murders and the press latched onto it as a suitably dramatic name by which to refer to the murderer. There is no evidence to conclusively prove that the author of the letter signed "Jack the Ripper" was in fact the murderer, and the police, press and others received hundreds of letters purportedly written by the murderer over this period.
There is no way to tell. The Ripper was never caught and has never been positively identified. There were quotes from people that claimed to be JTR but it would only be speculation as to how authentic they are.
**During his reign of terror at the University of Florida in Gainsville, FL, he was most commonly refered to as the 'Gainsville Ripper'.
"Jack the Ripper" is the popular name given to a serial killer who killed a number of prostitutes in the East End of London in 1888. The name originates from a letter written by someone who claimed to be the killer published at the time of the murders. The killings took place within a mile area and involved the districts of Whitechapel, Spitalfields, Aldgate, and the City of London proper. He was also called the Whitechapel Murderer and "Leather Apron." Since he was not aprehended, nobody has any information about him.
Jack The Ripper Jack The Ripper was not a crime, it was a name given to a notorious criminal murderer who to this day has not been formerly identified.---To answer this question more information would be required, such as when historically,over what period of time,moral or legal crime etc.
While 100s of letters claiming to be from Jack the Ripper were given to the authorities, we don't know that any of them were actually written by Jack the Ripper. Some letters are signed "Jack the Ripper," some are signed "Leather Apron" (which is what the murderer was often called before the name "Jack the Ripper" became popular), one is signed "Catch me when you can Mishter Lusk".....On and on and on.In short, no one knows which, if any, was the real signature.There is a book of these letters available if you would like to learn more. It includes transcripts and pictures.

He was also called the Whitechapel Murderer and "Leather Apron." The father of modern serial killing and one who got away with it. Since he was never apprehended for the murders, nobody knows exactly what turned Jack into a serial killer. The most likely reason is that the Whitechapel murderer suffered consistent mental and possibly physical abuse at the hands of a domineering mother or other female figure throughout his childhood. All of the evidence suggests that the murderer suffered from anti-social personality disorder--ASPD--but was not clinically insane.
