The London police never held the opinion that Jack the Ripper was murdered... he just stopped killing for reasons known only to him.
The killer refered to himself by several different names, Jack The Ripper and Saucy Jack are just a couple. He obviously had a flare for the dramatic. Jack The Ripper has become almost legend thanks in part to that 'oh so appropriated' name.

Jack the ripper was the first serial killer to reach the media. The world has eyes on him. It was a scandal about the condition the police was at that time. There were no false starts in this case. There was nothing to go on but the remains of the victims. Even today it takes quite some time to catch a murderer on the run, but in the case of Jack the Ripper, there were many aspects police today would not come across.

Jack The Ripper was the name of a 19th century seial killer murdering prostitutes in London's poverty-stricken east end. Everybody had their own idea of who the murderer was. Some involved with the case wrote about the crimes and gave their own opinion as to the identity of the Ripper, probably none were right. He was probably someone not even suspected, and carried out his crimes under the noses of Scotland Yard. For a killer of this sort, taunting the police was part of the fun.
