Jack the Ripper is not, And Jackie? Bashny.Net

The sensational book of British ex-lawyer (solicitor), John Morris, alleging that Jack the Ripper was a woman, caused a stormy discussion of historians.





According to 62-year-old lawyer, "Uaytcheplskim monster" was Lizzie Williams - wife of royal physician John Williams, who is considered the main suspect in the case of Jack the Ripper. Morris believes that Lizzie Williams killed his victims, so she could not have children, and cut the uterus - proof of this.

The former lawyer also noted that none of the five murdered prostitutes was sexually assaulted, and the personal belongings of one of them, Annie Chapman, were piled at her feet "in women's fashion." Near the body of the other victim - Catherine Eddowes - found the small buttons with female shoes, and in the fireplace ashes murdered Mary Kelly found the remains of a female clothes - coat, skirts and hats.

Morris also points out that Mary Kelly was in touch with her husband Lizzie Williams, who kept abortion clinic in Whitechapel.

Lizzy Williams, nee Mary Elizabeth Ann Hughes, was born on February 7, 1850 in a family of Welsh industrialist Richard Hughes. She married John Williams, when he was 32 years old, and she - 22. Elizabeth could not have children. Soon after a series of mysterious and terrible murders in London, she had a nervous breakdown. She died of cancer in 1912 and was never suspected in the case of Jack the Ripper.

Recall Jack the Ripper murders attributed 5 to 11 women committed in 1888 in the eastern districts of the British capital. In particular, the victims of the Ripper became Mary Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes and Mary Kelly.

The killer cut the throat of each of the victims. It is believed that the maniac was familiar with medicine - in any case, disfiguring victims' bodies with a scalpel, he acted very professionally.

Total British police at the time checked about 200 people in the framework of murder cases. The list of suspects in the high-profile case was about 10 people. Among them were - American Dr. Francis Tamblti, a grandson of Queen Victoria, Prince Albert Victor, Duke of Clarence.

Some versions of the detective dropped immediately. So, somebody Aaron Kozminski lived near the place where there were terrible events. He hated all women, especially prostitutes. One of the witnesses in the case of Jack the Ripper allegedly identified him, but only one and a half years. In addition, as shown Kozminski understood nothing in medicine.



The second suspect, George Chapman, graduated from the Medical University. He killed three of his wives and attempted to deal with the fourth. Subsequently, he was cleared of suspicion, because he killed his victims with poison, and Jack the Ripper acted knife. In addition, the fall of 1888, Chapman was only 23 years old, and Jack the Ripper witnesses gave more.

The third suspect was a grandson of Queen Victoria Duke of Clarence. It was suspected because the prince had syphilis. According to detectives, the disease could lead to the Duke of insanity, and he became a murderer. In addition, the Prince was said to have had a child by a woman from the lower strata living in the East End, and so it is often there. Meanwhile, as established by Trevor Marriott, a prince in the diaries contains records clearly indicate that during the murders of Jack the Ripper he was not in the city.

Another suspect was Francis Tamblti American charlatan who, without a license, pretended to be a doctor. He was arrested during one of the murders, but later was captured on bail and fled from the investigation in the United States. Marriott believes that doctors should be deleted, as it had stable homosexual preferences. Such people would be killing people of your gender, said the detective.

There is also a version of ruthless pimps Whitechapel, who thus punished the unruly prostitutes who violated agreement to work for them. If prostitutes pimps betrayed, then they can punish the most brutal way. While killing by slitting the throat was a common practice.

Three years ago, a book by the British historian, Professor Andrew Cook's "Jack the Ripper: Closed matter» (Jack the Ripper: Case Closed). Scientists have suggested that no maniac did not exist, and its image was created by journalists in the pursuit of sensation.



On the basis of new documents found them in the archives of the Metropolitan Police, Cook found that awful Jack the Ripper is a collective image, united action of several criminals.
And in 2004, best-selling author Patricia Cornwell detectives formulated his own theory for identification terrible serial offender. The woman in his research turned to the latest methods of detection of DNA and create an image of the killer with the help of computer technology.

In his book, "Portrait of a Killer: Jack the Ripper case is closed," the writer suggested that a serial killer could be the artist Walter Sickert, who at the end of the XIX century was the head of the British Impressionists. Examination of traces of DNA letters sent Jack the Ripper London police, and Sickert's letters to his wife Patricia Cornwell helped to come to a conclusion about the identity of the two men.

"In the best case, we have an indication that mitochondria DNA Sickert and Jack the Ripper, may belong to the same person," - so gently Cornwell wrote in his book. Definitely prove this is not possible ever since the death in 1942, Sickert's body was cremated. Others associated with the DNA samples, in addition to traces of the artist's saliva on stamps, there is.

Walter Sickert led a strange life, it is constantly changing and disguising handwriting, traveled frequently and usually tried for some reason does not leave any dates on the most of his works and letters. Patricia Cornwell, find out the truth, worked together with the director of the Institute of Forensic Medicine and Science in Virginia by Paul Ferrara. It also used computer technology, usually used by criminologists to compare the handwriting Sickert and Jack the Ripper.

The writer studied and artwork Sickert. For example, on the conclusion of Cornwall, Sickert sketch where an unknown kills his father, mirrors the murder scene Ripper victim Mary Kelly. Sickert was known for the fact that he used prostitutes as models for his works - as you know, Jack the Ripper was killed prostitutes.
