Who do you think was Jack the Ripper?
Just some "fun" for Friday evening.
Last night I saw another TV programme, with another so-called "expert", adamant they knew who the diabolical 1888 London serial killer could have been.
Who do you think s/he might have been then?
If more than one answerer names the same suspect, and with a valid argument, I will investigate that person further.
Thanks folks.

Aaron Kosminski, or possibly Dr Francis Tumblety.
Only trouble is ,not even Scotland Yard knew , so what chance has anyone after all this time of identifying the real killer . Still, it sells a lot of books and someone makes money out of it .
You do realize you wil be inundated with names !

I dispute the assertion that Tumblety was Jack the Ripper,but I'd love to see the evidence. Kosinski is a possibility but I believe that hidden in police or possibly mental hospital records is an unknown who got away with the word's most famous series of murders because he was a plain, unknown, seemingly ordinary man.
