During his lifetime, impressionist artist Walter Richard Sickert (b. 1860 d. 1942) was not considered a suspect, although his name does surface occasionally as a minor player in several conspiracy theories.

In 2002 Patricia Cornwell released her true crime bestseller Jack The Ripper:Case Closed. Cornwell, relying on her experience from years working for Virginia's medical examiner, puts together a very compelling case for Sickert as the Ripper. While the book has it's detractors, Scotland Yard's top investigator John Grieve believed with the evidence Cornwell compiled, an arrest would have been imminent.
