Jack The Ripper
Well, one of my favorites topics of all the times are serial killers, its really
intriguing for me; how the mind of a serial killer works? how they are
created? why do they kill ? and the way they kill, those are the questons that
I always make my self when a see a case or when I investigate about them.
So, for my essay I decided to make it about Jack the ripper one of the most
interesting serial killer in my opinion, Im̈ gonna talk about his modus
operandi, and his victims,
The third cannonical was Elizabeth Stride (27 November 1843 – 30 September
1888) .
Between 12:35 a.m. and 12:45 a.m., James Brown saw a woman he believed to
be Stride standing with her back against a wall at the corner of Berner Street
speaking with a man of average build in a long black coat and hat. Brown
heard Stride say, "No. Not tonight. Some other night." body was discovered at
approximately 1:00 a.m. on Sunday 30 September 1888 by Louis Diemschutz,
the steward of the International Working Men's Educational Club (the club
near were James saw her talking to the man and also William Smith saw her
aerlier talking to the same man)
The doctor who arrived was the same who examinated Annieś Chapman's
body.
Stride's body was lying on the near side, with the face turned toward the
wall, the head up the yard and the feet toward the street. The left arm was
extended and there was a packet
Of hard candies for the throat in the left hand. ... The right arm was over
the belly; the back of the hand and wrist had on it clotted blood. The legs
were drawn up with the feet close to the wall. And again in the autopsy,
there was the same cut in the neck from left to right, at the sames
vertabreas, and the same inches in lenght
Catherine Eddowes (14 April 1842 – 30 September 1888) is the fourth of
the canonical.
Last perason seeing her alive was Lawende who testified seeing Eddowes
wearing a black bonnet and jacket, she standing talking with a man of
medium build with a fair moustache at the entrance to Church Passage,.
She was facing the man, with one hand on his chest, although not in a
manner to suggest to Lawende she was resisting him. Only Lawende had
give a clear description of the man, whom he described as approximately
thirty, about 1.70 metres in height and wearing a loose-fitting "pepper
and salt colour loose jacket", a grey peaked cloth cap and a "reddish"
neckerchief. To Lawende, this individual conveyed the overall
appearance of a sailor.
At 1:44 a.m., Eddowes's mutilated and
eviscerated body was found lying on her
back, with her head resting on a coal
hole. thsi in my opinion was the most
autrosios homicide that Jack the ripper
commited, the way he esposed her body,
taking away her kidney, for then just
sending a part of it in his famosu letter
"From Hell". The throat cut. Across below
the throat was a neckerchief. The
intestines were drawn out and placed
over the right shoulder. A piece of about
two feet was placed between the body
and the left arm, apparently by design.
The lobe and auricle of the right ear
were cut obliquely through. There was a
quantity of clotted blood on the
pavement on the left side of the neck
round the shoulder and upper part of
the arm, and fluid blood-coloured serum
which had flowed under the neck to the
right shoulder, the pavement sloping in
that direction.
Now the last cannonical was Mary Jane Kelly (1863 – 9 November 1888).
Elizabeth Prater, who resided in the room directly above Kelly's and who
had been awoken by her kitten walking over her neck, and Sarah Lewis,
who had slept at number 2 Miller's Court on 8–9 November, both
reported hearing a faint cry of "Murder!" between 3:30 a.m. and 4 a.m.,
he mutilation of Kelly's corpse was by far the most extensive of any of the
Whitechapel murders, likely because the murderer had more time to
commit his atrocities in a private room, without fear of discovery over an
extensive period of time, as opposed to in public areas. The autopsy of
Kelly's body took two-and-a-half-hours to complete.
The body was lying naked in the middle of the bed, the shoulders flat but
the axis of the body inclined to the left side of the bed. The head was
turned on the left cheek. The left arm was close to the body with the
forearm flexed at a right angle and lying across the abdomen. The right
arm was slightly abducted from the body and rested on the mattress. The
elbow was bent, the forearm supine with the fingers clenched. The legs
were wide apart, the left thigh at right angles to the trunk and the right
forming an obtuse angle with the pubis.
The whole of the surface of the abdomen and thighs was removed and the
abdominal cavity emptied of its viscera. The breasts were cut off, the
arms mutilated by several jagged wounds and the face hacked beyond
recognition of the features. The tissues of the neck were severed all round
down to the bone.
The viscera were found in various
parts viz: the uterus and kidneys
with one breast under the head,
the other breast by the right foot,
the liver between the feet, the
intestines by the right side and the
spleen by the left side of the body.
The flaps removed from the
abdomen and thighs were on a
table. And for last there was a
really clear line of blood in the
middle of everything else in a side
of the bed beacuse of her neck
