  2. So who is jack the Ripper? • Well nobody knows who he really is, because he was never caught. • “Jack the Ripper” is just one of his famous names that many people call him by.

  3. Other names • The Whitechapel Murderer • Leather Apron

  4. How it all started… • In the mid-19th century, many Irish immigrants had come to England, in which increased England’s population significantly. • Robbery, violence, and prostitution had became a common thing to see in Whitechapel, England. • Murder had also risen up.

  5. There were a series of murders stretching from April 3, 1888 to February 13 1891, totaling up to eleven separate murders in Whitechapel. • However only five of the murders are believed to be linked to the Ripper. • These murders are called the “Canonical Five.”

  6. The Canonical Five • The victims of these murders are Mary Ann Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes and Mary Jane Kelly. • All of these murders had either the same way of death or mutilation • They were also all prostitutes.

  7. Way the victims were killed • Mary Ann Nichols- Her throat was severed by two deep cuts and the lower part of her abdomen was ripped open by a deep, jagged wound. There were other incisions in the abdomen made by the same knife. Her body was found at 3:40 a.m. on August 31, 1888.

  8. Annie Chapman- She was also killed by having her throat severed by two cuts. Her abdomen was also entirely cut open and it was also discovered that her uterus was removed. Her body was discovered September 8, 1888 at 6 a.m.

  9. Elizabeth Stride- Her main artery on the left side of her neck was severed by one clear-cut incision. Stride’s body was found on September 30, 1888 at about 1 a.m. • Catherine Eddowes- Her throat was severed and the abdomen was sliced open. The left kidney and the major part of the uterus had been removed. Her body was found forty five minutes after Stride’s was found.

  10. Mary Jane Kelly- Her throat was severed down to her spine and her abdomen was also sliced opened with all its organs emptied. Her heart was missing as well. The body was found at 10:45 a.m. on November 9, 1888.

  11. How he got the name • Over the time period of the murders happening in Whitechapel , many letters had been sent by people claiming to be the killer. • One of the letters, known as the “Dear Boss” letter, had promised “to clip the ladies’ ears off”. Three days later after the letter was received , Catherine Eddowes was found dead, in which the police noticed that part of her ear was cut off as promised in the letter.

  12. The name “Jack the Ripper” was used as the signature and after it’s publication gained worldwide notoriety. • Many other letters were sent in after this. Some were thought to be real, and some not.

  13. Still uncatchable • There had been many suspects, totaling up to over 100 people, but none that were found guilty of being killer. • I guess we will never know who Jack the Ripper really was.
