Why was Montague druid a suspect as Jack the Ripper?

He was an avid sportsman who was discovered drowned in the Thames river on December 31, 1888 and was the son of a medical practitioner. With the theory that the ripper was a butcher or a doctor or someone in a doctor's family, he was considered a suspect since the ripper didn't kill no more after 1888. He died in the last day or the year 1888. Those were the fact in considering him as a suspect.
