Was Jack the Ripper Walter Sickert?
Everybody seems to have their own favorite suspect as Jack the Ripper. There has never been a shortage of suspects or opinions on the identity of this notorious killer. I have studied the crimes of the Ripper and read many books on this subject including modern investigations using 21st century investigative tools and my opinion is that Walter Sickert was the Ripper. There is DNA evidence that links letters of Sickert's to some of the Ripper letters. This is but one example of the many "coincidences" that ties Sickert to the Ripper crimes.

How was Fransis Tumblety conected to Jack The Ripper story?
Francis Tumblety was an Irish-American (1833-1903) that has surfaced in at least one book to be a Ripper suspect. Tumblety was allegded to have been in London during at least some of the murders. But other than that, there has never been any evidence that he was Jack The Ripper. There was the rumor that Tumblety was homosexual, a rumor with some merit. The Whitechapel murders was undoubtedly the work of a hetosexual man. Gay men usually kill other gay men, so we can probably eliminate him from the suspect list.
