Episode notes
Tumblety's Incompatibility with Ripper
- Dr. Francis Tumblety was a con man not fitting the Ripper profile and fled after the last murder.
- He was likely homosexual, organized, and seeking publicity, unlike the elusive killer.
George Chapman, The Different Killer
- George Chapman was a serial poisoner after the Ripper murders ended, differing from the violent, frenzied attacks.
- His ability to form relationships conflicts with the Ripper's mutilation-driven pathology.
Maybrick Diary Deconstructed
- The Maybrick diary claiming he was Ripper is fake with anachronisms and improbable motives.
- The pocket watch linked to Maybrick surfaced suspiciously after the diary, casting further doubt on his candidacy.
Jack the Ripper killed 5 women in 1888 and was never caught and became the most famous serial killer of all time. Jimmy Akin and Dom Bettinelli discuss the potential suspects and then Jimmy reveals who he thinks the evidence most strongly points toward.
