Who was the last woman that Jack the Ripper killed?

It could have been anyone but most historians think that it was Mary Jane Kelly. This is just one of many misconceptions that get passed on through books and the media. Scotland Yard knew Mary Kelly was not the last victim just as the felt strongly that Mary Jane Nickols was not the first. According to Patricia Cornwell's best seller 'Jack the Ripper Case Closed' the Ripper went on killing right into the early 20th century. After Kelly the papers stopped printing much about the notorious killer. Things cooled down and it appeared that the Ripper was gone.


Which detective could not solve the case of Jack The Ripper?

There were several different detectives that worked the Ripper case. As is done in todays murder cases they split the murders between the detectives so everyone gets their share of the work. And remember that at least one of the murders, Katherine Eddows, was in a completely different section of London known as The Mile. This murder was handled by the London Police as opposed to the Metropolitan Police for the other killings. But the detective that is most often associated with Jack The Ripper is Inspector Frederick Abberline. Abberline was a much-commermorated member of the Metropolitan Police and was one of the few who never wrote a book or gave an opinion as to whom he thought the Ripper was. In his memoirs written after his retirement in 1903 he certainly did not go into the case. Maybe more than any of the other detectives that worked these murders, I think the inability to solve the case weighed heavily on Abberline, and most people don't like to talk about what they perceive as a failure. I think it is also telling that with all the rumors and misinformation that surrounded this case, he did not want to add another opinion to add to the confusion.

Who wrote the book of Jack the Ripper?

There are numerous books and publications that deal with the mystery of Jack the Ripper. Some are factual or, at least, claim to be, while others are fictional. Still others blend fact and fiction together. This creates confusion for a person who wants to seriously study Jack the Ripper and the Whitechapel murders. lthough first published in 1994, Philip Sugden's historical investigation of the gruesome Whitechapel murders still stands out as a fact-based classic on Saucy Jack. There is certainly no shortage of books and movies about Jack the Ripper, the mysterious 19th century serial killer of London prostitutes (1888 - 1891). What makes Sugden's book stand out from the crowd is the fact that he started from scratch.
