Most people that study the crimes of Jack The Ripper agree that he was still killing in 1891. A prostitute named Frances Coles was found murdered, throat cut, in the early morning hours of February 12-13, 1891. Coles fit the victim profile of the Ripper. Scotland Yard knew that JTR did not stop with the death of Mary Kelly. Why it has been report so, I have no idea. But as is typical with this kind of killer, the Ripper continued to kill until he probably just got too old and just faded away.

Why did Jack the Ripper stop killing was it to taunt the authorities?

Jack the Ripper's reasons for discontinuing his murders are unknown. Many theories have been put forth, such as that he committed suicide, that he fled the country, or that he was arrested and/ or institutionalized for other offenses. This last theory is quite probably the most likely.


When did the Jack the Ripper murders stop?

The last of the canonical five murders was Mary Kelly on November 9th, 1888. But some people believe that later murders in Whitechaple were also the work of Jack the Ripper. And others believe that Jack the Ripper left the country and committed murders in the US. We don't know for sure. Soon after Kelly's death, the body of Montagu Druitt was found in the Thames, and a note went round Scotland Yard saying that there would be no more murders now. Assuming Kelly was the last Ripper victim, this would point to Druitt as the serial murderer. As for some other murders in the area in the following year or two, many authors have tried to link these to the Ripper, but most experts are not convinced.


Was James Kelly Jack the Ripper?

James Kelly has recently surfaced as a Ripper suspect. Unfortuneatly, when suspects are investigated for these crimes the person investigating relies on previous inaccuracies which in turn makes for faulty conclusions. James Kelly is one such suspect. Jack The Ripper's crimes did not stop after the murder of Mary Kelly in November 1888, and in all likelyhood Mary Ann Nichols was not the first victim. The detectives that worked the case were well aware of these facts. As time goes on many of these inaccuracies are taken as fact making the truth that much harder to discern.

How many weeks did the Jack the Ripper murders last?

Most historians agree that the "Jack The Ripper" murders happened between August and November, 1888.However, it is impossible to ascertain which murders in Whitechapel during 1888 and 1889 are actually attributable to "Jack the Ripper" and there is conjecture that the Ripper may have killed previously and/or gone on to murder women later (most theories suggest this was in Boston or elsewhere in the northeastern USA).The earliest murder usually associated with Jack the Ripper is that of Emma Smith on April 2, 1888. However, it is now generally considered that the facts of this case do not match with the characteristics of the definite Jack the Ripper cases. There were several non-fatal attacks on women early in 1888 which may potentially fit with the Ripper's modus operandii.The earliest likely Ripper murder is that of Martha Tabram, on the night of 6-7 August 1888. While Tabram is not a "canonical" Ripper victim, the facts of her murder are consistent with a killer who would go on to commit the Ripper murder-mutilations.The canonical (or widely accepted) Ripper victims are:1. Mary Ann (or "Polly") Nicholls, 31 August 1888.2. Annie Chapman, 8 September 1888.3. Elizabeth Stride, 30 September 1888.4. Catherine Eddowes, 30 September 1888.5. Mary Jane Kelly, 9 November 1888.The following three murders have also been attributed by some sources to the Ripper:1. Rose Mylett, 20 December 1888.2. Alice McKenzie, 17 July 1889.3. Frances Coles, 13 February 1891.However, there are various features of each case which make any connection with the Ripper cases dubious.In addition, there were two mutilated female torsos discovered in the vicinity, one on 2 October 1888 in Whitehall and one on 10 September 1889 in Whitechapel. Some commentators link these to Jack the Ripper.


Why is Jack The Ripper still unexplained?

Unfortunately, not all killers are caught, even with today's advanced technology. To catch a killer like JTR the police would need some of that technology but it was not available for almost a century. They used the tools that were available but it was not enough to stop this particular killer.


When was Jack the Ripper caught?

Nothe police were never able to catch him.Yes, he certainly was, and once apprehended, the killings stopped immediately and never resumed. However, he was never tried, as he soon died while incarcerated of an STD. Name: Nathan Kaminsky (Wirtkofsky) -- an obscure, unhappy, and homicidal man with a fatal disease who was furious he had been infected.//The serial killer known only as Jack The Ripper was never officially identified and/or apprehended. Although the mystery remains, some of the improbable suspects can be eliminated. Aaron Kosminski could not have been the Ripper for the simple fact that he was locked up in an asylum for the mentally ill during the time of at least three of the murders. Nor did the killing stop after the November 8, 1888 murder of Mary Kelly. JTR continued to kill until at least 1891 and most likely beyond that, possibly into the early 20th century. Kosminski was long dead by that date.it is imposoble to say but he started at 1888 and he was never caught
