I also think that to make a link between what Warren did in the world of archaeology to what he did as Commissioner of the Met and the inability to nail the Ripper is just plain silly. If not though of a piece with the sweeping statements that people are apt to make in Ripperworld. ...

Thanks, Caz. I'm certain that the hoaxer of the Diary didn't think about impressing me. I'm surprised that you still believe the Diary is the real thing when in reality it's a rather crude artifact created to put James Maybrick in the frame for having been the Ripper. There are too many strikes against...

Don't forget we're talking about a murderer who got away time and time and again. A man who may or may not have been seen by any known...

The early passage in the Diary doesn't indicate he's having the "bevvie" in the pub, which again he expressly says was "the Poste House," just before he hops on the train to Aigburth. It's the same sentence in which he says "it was there I finally decided London it shall b...

The trouble with Caz's argument is that the Diarist meant the Old Post Office pub and not the Poste House pub in Cumberland Street is that the Diarist expressly writes on the first page of the Diary, "I took refreshment at the Poste House. . ." And while it is true that the existing Poste...

I have seen no evidence in any of the descriptions of Mary Kelly that she had an accent. As for Chris Scott's inability to conclusively identify "Mary Kelly" and the identical inability by other researchers, my sense is that it stems from the extremely common nature of the name and not from...
