Although not originally thought to have been the victim of Jack the Ripper, Frances Coles death on Friday 13, 1891 had many similarites with the previous Whitechapel victims. PC Ernest Thompson was walking his beat and had passed the spot where Coles body was found around 15 minutes later. He testified that the body had not been there. He also claimed to have heard a man's footsteps walking in the opposite direction as he came upon the body.
It is true that Coles did not receive the horrible wounds as other Ripper victims but in light of the fact that PC Thompson heard footsteps it was more than likely this was the killer leaving the scene. This is very similar to the murder of Elizabeth Stride, found with her throat sliced to the vertibrae yet no futher mutilations. The Ripper was interrupted at the Berner St. crime scene and barely escaped undiscovered. I believe this is exactly what happened in the Coles murder.
Lastly, while not exactly scientific, the striking resemblance of many of the Ripper's victims is evident, this includes Frances Coles. The opinions of the men who hunted the hunter, detectives at Scotland Yard, were confident Coles murder was a Ripper crime.

Did Jack the Ripper kill Francis Cole?
For those who have seriously studied the crimes of JTR it is obvious that Frances Coles was also a victim of this famous killer. Coles worked as a prostitute and was found murdered on February 13, 1891, in Swallows Garden, Whitechapel. Although Coles did not suffer the horrible mutilations that most other Ripper victims did, the crimes are too similar to dismiss. Her murder is reminiscent of Elizabeth Stride's on September 30, 1888. Stride was the first in the 'double event', so called because the Ripper struck twice, Catherine Eddows was killed less than an hour after Stride, and had no time for the telling mutilations that other victims suffered. Many serial killers will pick victims that may resemble each other. Coles was very similar in physical appearence to the other victims, she worked as a prostitute in the Whitechapel district and unfortunately for her, somehow on that February night she crossed paths with Jack The Ripper.
