Annie Chapman, age 47, found with her throat slit and torso mutilated on Hanbury St., Spitalfields. In the case of Chapman, the killer once again displays incredible nerve to kill under the nose of witnesses. 29 Hanbury St. was a busy place on the early morning of September 8. Jack took great risks in murdering Chapman with people coming and going, even in the pre-dawn hours when the body was discovered.
29 Hamberry street of whitechapel is where she lived+died
//Actually, Chapman was homeless at the time prior to, and up to the time of her death at 29 Hanbury Street. Moving between workhouse infirmeries and 'doss' houses, which are rented per bed, per night. Shortly before her death, Chapman stayed frequently in a Spitalfields doss-house at 35 Dorset St., near Commercial and Crispen Streets. Unfortuneatly, there are many gaps of unaccounted-for time in the days and hours leading up to Chapman's murder. As is still true today, prostitutes, especially the most destitute ones, moved frequently and leave little evidence of their travels.
One of the actual occupants of 29 Hanbury Steet was a Mrs. Harriet Hardiman, whose cat-meat business was located inside the rooming house, 29 Hanbury. Others included Amelia Richardson and John Davis. None of which had heard anything out of the ordinary. Chapman was no doubt in the neighborhood trying to drum up a little 'business' to earn her pittance for a doss bed. Although filthy and lacking privacy, a doss house was preferrable to a cold doorway or park bench, and only slightly safer.
Chapman's body was found at 29 Hanbury St., Whitechapel district, London.
