and today we are doing just that yes J make smoke come out of my mouth we are going to be talking about one of the most infamous uncaught serial killers of all time I don't know why I'm dipping into Captain Jack Sparrow when I look like Sherlock Holmes I need to okay Sherlock Holmes I need to get in it also my hat works both ways which is crazy so people can't talk behind my back without me knowing you know you know life hack where was I well talking about Jack the Ripper and unraveling the mystery so let's hop into our carriages slap our horse on the go mock point5 down the alleyway yell wo wo horsey and deep dive through the carriage over the horse into the serial killer [Music] together as a commoner in Victoria London you wake up every morning in a cramped and dirty room that you share with several other people you can barely breathe in the stale and Smoky air and you cough from the dust and S that cover everything you dress in your ragged and worn clothes and head out to the noisy chaotic streets you dodge the carts and carriages that rattled on the cobblestones and the horses that leave their droppings behind you smell the stench of rotten garbage sewage and animal carcasses that pile up in the sidewalks and gutters you hear the cries of Beggars Hawkers and children and the occasional church bells that TOS in the distance you walk for miles to reach your workplace place where you will spend the next 12 hours or more toiling in harsh and dangerous conditions for pittance you have no hope in escaping this miserable and hopeless life and after a grueling day at work you have little energy or more left to enjoy yourself but sometimes you crave the relief of the misery and monotony of your life you might head to the pub where you could drink a pint of a play a game of cards or listen to a song or a story you might also go to the Music Hall where you could watch a variety of Acts from singers to dancers to Comedians and magicians you might even splurge on a ticket to a cheap theater where you can see the melod drama a pantomime or a bisque show the city's brothels may offer you relief with being a line of work that employed anywhere from 8,000 to 880,000 women and if you thought life during the day was miserable when the sun had set an entirely new host of miseries would make themselves known as night falls the city changes a thick fog descends enveloping the streets in an eerie and gloomy atmosphere you could barely see a few feet ahead of you dark and uded the shadowed corners of London Alleyways provided ample hiding opportunity for cities in many many dangers and with many people poor and desperate at this time it was hard to survive at the bottom of the socioeconomic ladder leading many to turn to Crime just to get by nowhere was this more prevalent than London's East End an overcrowded and Incredibly poor area where crime and poverty were all too common and many people resorted to stealing from shops markets houses or even from other people in the streets pickpockets shoplifters burgers and Highwaymen were all types of Thieves who prayed on the unsuspecting or the wealthy some thieves worked alone while others were part of organized gains or networks and theft was often driven by poverty addiction and hunger and violence was frequent as well when encounters spawned from desperation would turn bloody as a commoner with close to nothing tries to cheat and steal from the neighbor who is just as little if not less and while some violence stemmed from necessity there were also those criminals hiding in the dense thick fog with much more Sinister motivations and right as it seemed that life was at its worst would begin to turn up dead with organs missing only to be found in dark filthy Alleyways where the smell of their bodies would mix with rotting garbage and horse droppings and this would be the work of the infamous Jack the Ripper I'll stop with the British accent I hope if you're still here that's incredible I know that whole intro was me it started out really bad I think really bad and then I think it got a little bit better my British um my lovely londoners and other and other uh British people let me know how terrible my accent was you can hurt my feelings it's fine also I felt like I'm just going to stay in this outfit cuz I think this hat is kind of fire and this bow tie is as well I can't actually read out of these glasses though so I'm going to xay those maybe I'll just use this maybe anyway let's get in to Jack the riper so first we're going to start with the first victim that we know of which is Maryanne Nicholls also known as poly Nichols and like I said she was the first of the canonical five of Jack the Ripper she was born in 1845 in London and married a printers machinist named Willian Nichols in 1864 they would have five children but then they would eventually separate due to marital issues in 1880 and after their separation Maryanne lived a very hard and unstable life moving between workhouses public lodgings her father's house and at the homes of various lovers as you do she also struggled with alcoholism which made her resort to working in to earn money so on the night of August 31st 1888 Maryanne Nichols would leave her lodging house without enough money for a bed or to pay for her stay she said she would soon get the money by showing off her new Bonnet and if you don't know what a bonnet is this is what a bonnet is and she would last be seen Alive by her roommate at around 2:30 a.m. walking along White Chapel Road Mary and Nichols probably did not see or hear her killer approaching as he would attack her from behind and her throat very quickly she may have felt some sudden pain before losing Consciousness and dying and about an hour later her body would be found on bucks row which was a dark and deserted Street and she would be discovered by a gentleman named Charles Allen lickman her throat would be like we said before but also her abdomen would be completely open and the discovery of this murder obviously struck fear into the hearts and souls of the London's east side though not as unfortunate as Maryann Nichols but the whole of London would be absolutely shaken by this murder though this would hardly be the end of Jack the river's reign of terror Annie Chapman had been married to a man named John Chapman and together they would have three children Emily Annie and John each of them naming a child after themselves and their eldest Emily would unfortunately pass from menitis when she was only 12 years old in 1882 and Annie and John would unfortunately separate about 2 to 3 years after Emily had passed away and either 1884 or 1885 John would send Annie about 10 Shillings a week which she would live off of which sounds crazy to me but she would also live off her meager earnings from selling flowers as well and her crochet work but on Christmas day in 1886 however John would unfortunately pass away and Annie would turn to for work with no more allowance coming from from her husband anymore so on the night of September 8th 1888 Annie Chapman similar to Maryanne Nichols would leave her lodging not able to pay for the night and she would go to work on the streets and Annie would last be seen Alive by her friend at 1:35 a.m. walking along brushfield Street and about only an hour later her body would be found in the backyard of 29 Hanbury Street which was a lodging house and Annie Chapman would be killed in the same way that Mary Anne Nichols was killed with her throat and her abdomen completely open but she would actually be in an even worse State than Maryann Nichols her insides had actually been pulled out of her body cavity and they would be placed over her shoulder still all connected by the way it's saying it reading about it and then saying it out loud it just it's just it makes me cringe a lot oh God just poor poor woman this man was a monster she would also be missing her uterus and her bladder and she'd also be missing her lady Parts as well like there's a reason they called him Jack the Ripper like I don't I don't understand and a young Carpenter who had lived in the neighboring 27 hanberry Street had reported hearing a woman scream no before hearing something fall against a fence connecting to the yards of 27 and 29 handbury Street and you just didn't go and check it out you just is that is that normal maybe that was normal I guess I don't know there's probably bu of stuff happened on the street I would probably check it out call the cops I guess the did they even have phones oh my God one more phone's invented I don't know I don't know I'm just I'm upset so Annie Would Be Jack the Ripper's second victim that we know of which brings us to his third victim Elizabeth stride Elizabeth stride also known as long Liz was the third victim of Jack the Ripper she was born in Sweden actually and moved to England in 1866 at the age of 23 the year before she had given birth to his stillborn daughter following a pregnancy that resulted in her work in and she would continue her work as a lady of the night in England though she would occasionally clean houses and later marry a man named John stride with whom she would actually open a coffee shop with but their marriage would eventually deteriorate however and they would separate with Jon selling the coffee shop due to financial issues which was all too prevalent at the time if you can't see a a pattern that's happening with separations and then money problems it was just like an ongoing problem with most of the population it seems especially people that were more hard on Financial Times so on September 29th 1888 Elizabeth was paid 6 P to clean two rooms at her Lodge house on 32 flower and Dean Street and this was a notorious slum with little to no sanitation with crime being a very very frequent occurrence dubbed by some the worst Street in London but this would not be the worst Street for Elizabeth's stride as that would be reserved for burner Street where late that night or early in the morning on September 30th 1888 Elizabeth would become the third victim of Jack the Ripper so on Burner Street Elizabeth's body would be discovered in the yard connected by the alley seen under the cartwheel in between the buildings her body would be discovered around 1:00 in the morning similar to the other bodies this guy's on a tight schedule I don't know why and would still be flowing from the knife wound in her neck seemingly indicating that the Ripper might have been interrupted during this process and that he had to flee to avoid Discovery and he couldn't finish his work his work what and this would be the closest he ever got to actually being caught and due to the lack of Mutilation of Elizabeth's body thank God police were initially unsure if it was the doing of Jack the Ripper until further events on the 30th would provide Clarity so perhaps due to the unfinished nature of the killing September 30th would be a very busy night for the Ripper as it would be the same night another body was found Catherine and Dows may have very well been able to live to see October as around 8:30 a constable would find her lying down in the pavement near 29 elgate High Street Lou Frederick Robinson the Constable initially tried to assist Catherine to her feet but after she would slump back over it took Louie and another Constable George Simmons to get her to Bishop's Gate station where she was held until she sobered up and Catherine would be released around 1:00 a.m. it's a bad time it's a bad time to be on the streets at 1:00 a.m. in London oh my God about at the same time that Elizabeth stride was killed and 44 minutes later 44 minutes later Catherine's body would be discovered and on the southwest corner of MRA Square by the police her throat like the others would also be and similar to Annie her insides would also be taken out and draped over her shoulder as well with a piece about 2 ft long completely removed and placed between her body and her left arm with intention her face would also be very severely and an Earl as well so personally I do think that these additional injuries were a result of him not being able to finish the kill before on Elizabeth and he was just so so pent up that he took all of his frustration out on Catherine it's such an unfortunate series of events I I just can't and like that we like have photos of the bodies for some reason I don't know but like they have them on the internet I'm not going to show them obviously um but I it's I can't even look at them like they're horrible absolutely horrible so the murder of Elizabeth and Catherine would be called the double event after a letter was received allegedly from Jack the Ripper claimed the responsibility for the two murders and it would be received by the London authorities with blood on the letter as well because he's a sick and it would say this I was not cutting dear old boss when I gave you the tip you'll hear about Saucy Jackie's work tomorrow double event this time number one squealed a bit couldn't finish straight off had not time to get ears for police thanks for keeping last letter back till I got to work again Jack the Ripper and this was supposedly what what the letter said it it's not for sure it's just supposedly and this leads us to our next victim which was Mary Jane Kelly and Mary Jane Kelly was almost as mysterious as Jack the Ripper himself as her name is a topic of some debate seeing as she also went by several other names Marie Janette Kelly Fair Emma Ginger dark Mary and black Mary I didn't I I I want to go by a different name that sounds fun give me a nickname down in the comments below she also worked as a and while the details of her life are largely unknown what we do know is that her murder would was by far the most gruesome out of all of them so on the night of November 9th 1888 she was in her room at 13 Miller Court off Dorset Street a slum that would frequently be occupied by criminals and and she would last be seen alive around 2:00 a.m. by her neighbor while singing a song and about 7 hours later her body would be found in her room by her landlord's assistant which is much different than the other girls they would all be found in the streets or street corners or Alleyways but she was actually found in her room and they would find her because they came to collect rent and like I said her body was by far the most brutal murderer out of out of all of them like there's there's crime scene photos I'm not going to show them obviously but I have trouble keeping food down her throat like the others was and her abdomen would also be opened but they would be completely emptied of everything that was inside her heart would be missing and her face and neck were beyond recognition her left arm would be partially removed and her top area was also completely removed and most of these removed Parts would be found just scattered around the room whereas the heart was never found so as you probably noticed over the course of the stories told of these women being murdered Jack the Ripper had a very specific type each of them were and many of them struggled with alcoholism and who knows what exactly motivated Jack the Ripper did he hate women did he hate ladies of the night specifically you could basically speculate endlessly since this happened 135 years ago but there are some Clues to point us in the direction of who this man might have been so each woman was killed with their throat and that combined with the almost surgical of the bodies has led some to theorize that Jack the Ripper was a surgeon or a doctor or someone in the medical field or someone with medical training at least given his familiarity with the human anatomy which I think is very fair to assume so let's go over The Usual [Music] Suspects so despite the efforts of the police and the public no one was ever arrested for the murders of these five women however over the years many theories and suspects have been proposed and some more plausible than others so we're going to explore the most prominent and controversial suspects monog John druitt Aaron kosminsky and Walter siker very weird names Monto johnr was a barrister and a teacher who came from a wealthy and respectable family he was also an avid cricketer who played for multiple clubs he was described by his friends and colleagues as quiet intelligent and a very gentlemanly person however he also suffered from depression and other mental instability which would worsen after his father's death in wait for it 1888 the same year that all these women were killed he would be dismissed from his teaching position shortly after his slw slide of drowning himself in the tames in December 1888 his body would be found near Chiswick on the 31st of December a few weeks after the last Ripper murder and Dru would first be named a suspect by Sir Melville mcnt the assistant chief Constable of the Metropolitan Police in a private memorandum written in 1894 mcnt would claim that druitt was seually insane and that he would have a very strong resemblance to The Rivers description he also said that druid's slur slide was a confession of guilt and that the murder stopped after it happened as well however MCN evidence was basically based on hearsay and speculation and he did not provide any solid proof of Druid committing these crimes moreover druid's Alibi was never really thoroughly investigated either and some Modern authors had cast doubt on his involvement at all so I don't know it's it's like weird timing but there's a lot of people in London so I don't know if you can coincide all of that together as he being the Ripper I don't know he's not my first choice let's go on to the second Aaron kosminsky Aaron kosminsky was a polish jew that immigrated to London in the early 1880s he would live in the heart of White Chapel where the Ripper murders took place he would be a barber by trade sharp stuff but he also suffered from paranoid schizophrenia and violent tendencies and he was also known to have a great hatred toward women specifically to and he would be frequently hospitalized in asylums for his mental condition and he would die in 1919 inside of a mental institution and kosminsky would be the first named suspect by Sir Robert Anderson the head of the Criminal investigation department of the Metropolitan Police in his Memoir published in 1910 Anderson would claim that the Ripper was a polish jew who was actually identified by a witness but not prosecuted because the witness refused to testify against a fellow Jew he also claimed that the river would probably be confined in an asylum shortly after the last murder and that he knew his name however Anderson did not reveal the name of the suspect or the witness and his account would be contradicted by other police officials and documents kosminsky would later be identified as a suspect by Donald Swanson the Chief Inspector who actually led the Ripper investigation in a handwritten note on the margin of Anderson's Memoirs however Swanson's note wouldn't be discovered until 1987 and it also contains some inconsistencies and errors so again we just there's just not enough evidence it's all like basically circumstantial at this point so let's move on to the next one nay the last one Walter siker Walter sier was a painter and print maker who was one of the founders of Camden Town group a group of artists who depicted the urban life of London in the early 20th century he was also a friend and a pupil of James Abbott mcneel Whistler one of the most influential artists at the time he was known for very realistic and expressive portraits Landscapes and scenes of musicals and theaters he was also very interested in the social and political issues of the era and he also commented on them in his work and he would die in 1942 and siker would be first named a suspect by Jean overturn Fuller a writer and friend of siker's Widow in her book siker and the Ripper crimes published in 19 1990 Fuller would claim that CER had actually confessed to being the Ripper in a letter to his own wife and that he would leave Clues and hints in his paintings and writings he but also claim that CER had a deformed member and he also had seual impotence that would drive him to murder which that makes a lot of sense this one this one tickles my brain I think it makes a lot of sense but I digress however Fuller's evidence would be based off dubious sources and interpretations and she would not provide any solid proof to link siker to the crimes siker would allegedly boast about renting an art studio formerly occupied by Jack the Ripper which is suspicious because Jack was never identified and no one could know what he owned because he was never identified CET would also Paint a Piece called Jack the Ripper's bedroom and some of his own art is up for sale which is crazy I kind of want to look oh wow that's wild how much is this I'm not not going to get it I'm just curious wow anyway I digress and moreover sckers Alibi was also never thoroughly investigated and some Modern authors have also cast doubt on his involvement as well but these are just three of the many suspects proposed as Jack the Ripper and at one point evidence seemingly had come out linking that one of those three more concretely as Jack the Ripper is it the artist who claimed to be Jack the river in private correspondence who painted the Ripper's bedroom and painted the studio supposedly previously occupied by the murderer or is it the Jewish schizophrenic Barber with a hatred for who was witnessed by a fellow Jewish individual who refused to testify against another Jew or could it have been the mentally unstable barister who was said to be Sally insane who committed SL slide shortly after the fifth murder possibly being why there was no sixth we'll never probably know but we do have some DNA Revelations according to the article Jack the Ripper's true identity recent find suggests that cossky might have actually been Jack the Ripper based on DNA evidence obtained from a Shaw belonging to one of the victims Catherine adow the shaw was found by her body in Matra Square on September 30th 1888 and it contained blood and you know stains other stains C men stains you know the shaw would be preserved by a police officer who took it as a souvenir what were we doing back then a souvenir that's sick but it would later be acquired by collector who gave it to forensic experts for analysis the forensic expert drct I'm going to butcher this I'm sorry Lenin L lanin lanin sorry used a technique called vacuuming to extract the DNA from the Shaw and he would compare it to the DNA of living relatives of kosminsky and a dow he would find a match for the blood stains and a dow descendant and a match between the samanain and kosminsky descendant he would also determine that the killer would have brown eyes and brown hair which would match K Minsky's description I think that would match most people's description but the DNA is interesting so the DNA evidence is the first piece of actual forensic proof that links kosminsky to the Ripper murders and it does support the claim that some of the police officers named him as a suspect in their Memoirs however the evidence is not conclusive and it has been challenged by some critics who question the validity and the reliability of the shaw the DNA extraction and the comparison methods which brings us to our final chapter there are lots of rumors and accused who are said to be Jack the Ripper but a former police volunteer has stated that she has found medical evidence that she believes links The Man Behind Jack the Ripper Sarah back Horton has named hyim hams what kind of name is that is the man responsible for the murders of at least six women in or near White Chapel East London between August and November 1888 and ironically enough Miss Bon's grandfather actually worked on Jack the Ripper's investigation case back in 1888 and he would investigate and examine medical records and witness records so ham hyams was born in algate on February 8th 1855 and he would be the son of Solomon HS who was a cigar marker according to the 1871 consensus and after 1881 HS would be married to a woman named Rachel and in 1888 the year of the Ripper murders he would have two children a son named William and a daughter named Kate and on the morning of December 29th 1888 hams would be taken into custody by one of the members of the Metropolitan Police in White Chapel and he would be sent to the White Chapel workhouse infirmary where he was diagnosed with delirium tremens and this disorder was known as a disordered state of mind that was usually accompanied by hallucinations and terrifying delusions brought to light by severe alcoholism and 13 days later he would be discharged all to be readmitted 3 months later he was shown to have a very weak mind and he was transferred to the col hatch Lunatic Asylum arriving restrained and in a noisy condition and according to the Asylum he was listed as violent and dangerous especially to his wife there's a quote that says injured mother's head with chopper when attacking his wife epileptic and irritable after fits addicted to drink okay sounds like a trick so on the 30th of August 1889 after about 4 months he would be discharged from the Asylum and deemed as recovered but only 10 days later this mother would be readmitted again as an insane person after attacking and his own wife he was described as being the terror of the city of London police sounds like another guy we know doesn't it doesn't it now according to his wife Rachel he was actually responsible for four miscarriages from abuse and deranged Behavior because he would beat her thinking that she was cheating on him and for the past 9 years he had been suffering from periodic epileptic attacks and was becoming more and more violent but at times he was noted as being like kind and civil very attentive to his personal appearance and grooming but 4 months later again the 4th of January 1890 he was transferred back to col hatch Asylum his case notes would referred to him as very frequent epileptic fits and then very violent and filthy otherwise quiet but bitter against his wife no shitty he her and beat her what but these fits were apparently cyclical and hams would be well for like a month at a time and he was also described as a crafty and dangerous Maniac who destroys his bedding and pants his walls in filth shouting the most obscene languages and practicing self abuse which is otherwise known as um self- pleure I guess and his delusions would just continue as he would attack medical staff during his visits until eventually initially he would die in the asylum on March 22nd 1913 where epilepsy and cardiovascular degeneration were listed as the causes so why was he a suspect according to the woman stated before Miss Bax Horton stated that eyewitness said he had a particular gate he would be weak in the knees and not be able to fully extend his legs a side effect of brain damage due to epilepsy and according to Ham's Uncle John Levy who was running a cigar manufacturing business next door to Ham's address found a long kenif wrapped in bloodstained handkerchief the day after the murder of stride and AOW so maybe it was just a coincidence that ad DA's body was found near the back of the shop that had been owned by H Hy's uncle but it seems like at least at this point some of the evidence actually does point to hams he may not fit some descriptions but his mental state definitely made him a clear suspect in this case so if it wasn't hims it was someone just like him a mentally ill deranged Psychopathic monster piece of [ __ ] but I'm not sure how they're actually supposed to solve the Jack the Ripper case given that it's over 120 years ago so scrounging garage sales for DNA samples just to get a hint about Jack the Ripper is almost uh Psychopathic behavior in and of itself the guy is dead spoiler alert and everyone that knew him is also dead spoiler alert so it's not like you can give the family's much relief given that they have died you know time and time again at this point um it's still awful and I mean you know to know his identity would be insane and amazing because he he is quite literally I'd say probably the most infamous CER of all time so I don't think that anybody's going to receive any closure anytime soon but who knows who knows maybe technology is going to get crazy maybe we'll get a time machine maybe we can go back maybe we can prevent these murders we can prevent a lot that would be crazy anyway Jack the Ripper obviously still haunts the minds of a lot of us uh True Crime folk and there's no telling how much longer it's actually going to take to solve this case but here's hoping you know here's hoping that it gets solved one day but like I always say if you if you like the video please like the video and subscribe if you want to also let me know what else you guys want me to go over in the comments below I know we've been doing a lot of
