Like many other Ripper suspects, Thompson was associated with Jack The Ripper only by the flimiest of circumstances. Thompson had trained as a medical doctor and he lived just south of Whitechapel. Other than that I could find no other reason for him to be a suspect.

Was the man called Leather Apron Jack The Ripper?
Without a doubt he was not. The man known as Leather Apron was a local shoemaker named John Pizer. When panick was at its highest anyone that wore a leather apron or used a knife in his line of work could very likely become a Ripper suspect. This is exactly what happened to Pizer. After being questioned and then released by the police the public decided Pizer had to be the Ripper and had the man not run and hid he most likely would have been strung up by the crowd. For quite a while after being questioned, Pizer had to stay out of sight for his own safety.
Why was Montague druitt a suspect in the Jack the Ripper murders?
In those days whit the police invenstigating techniques, anyone could be a suspect in the Jack the ripper case. Montague John Druitt was an assistant schoolmaster in Blackheath, London and a graduate of Winchester College and an avid sportsman who was discovered drowned in the Thames river on December 31, 1888. He had heavy stones in his pockets making it clearly that it was a suicide. There is very little evidence with which to implicate with the cannonical five whitechappel murders. He was also a homosexual. Evidence which supports Druitt's being the Ripper is all but non-existant. In fact, his only true link can be made in his appearance and his likeness to many witness accounts.

Why was Aaron Kosminski a suspect of being Jack The Ripper?
Although Kosminski was known to be a 'woman hater' and a slightly deranged one at that, he seemed to look like the type of man that could slice up prostitutes. Had anybody checked they would have found that Kosminski could not have been the Ripper for the fact that he was not available for several of the killings, spending some time in an asylum for the insane. The police had no prior serial killer experience, nothing of past cases that fit the Ripper crimes. In the 21 century it's easy enough to blame Scotland Yard for what looks to be a sloppy investigation. But the truth is they just did not have the tools needed to apprehend this kind of killer.
