Unknown serial killer Jack the Ripper operated in the underprivileged areas near Whitechapel in London’s East End in 1888. The murderer was referred to as the Whitechapel Murderer and Leather Apron in both criminal case files and current journalistic accounts.

Attacks attributed to Jack the Ripper typically targeted women who were engaged in prostitution and lived and worked in the East End of London. Prior to the mutilations of the abdomen, their throats were severed. At least three of the victims had their internal organs removed, which raised the possibility that the murderer knew something about anatomy or surgery.



In September and October 1888, there were more claims that the murders were connected, and media outlets and Scotland Yard received a lot of letters from people claiming to be the murderer. The term “Jack the Ripper” was first used in a letter that was published in the media and claimed to be authored by the murderer. It is generally accepted that the letter was a hoax, and it may have been created by journalists in an effort to generate more interest in the subject and boost readership for their publications. Half of a preserved human kidney, allegedly stolen from one of the victims, was enclosed with the “From Hell” letter that George Lusk of the Whitechapel Vigilance Committee received.
Due to the extraordinary brutality of the murders and extensive media coverage of the crimes, the public began to gradually assume that a single serial killer by the name of “Jack the Ripper” was responsible.



The Ripper gained significant and sustained international notoriety as a result of extensive newspaper coverage, and the mythology grew. Police were unable to establish a direct link between the eleven terrible deaths that occurred in Whitechapel and Spitalfields between 1888 and 1891 and the homicides of 1888. The “canonical five” victims are Mary Ann Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes, and Mary Jane Kelly. Their slayings between August 31 and November 9, 1888, are frequently thought to be the most likely to be connected.
The killings remained unsolved, and the traditions that surrounded them eventually blended historical fact with folklore and pseudohistory to capture the public’s imagination up until this day.

Background of the Jack the Ripper

Britain witnessed an inflow of Irish immigrants in the middle of the 19th century, which increased the populations of the major cities, notably London’s East End. Jews who had fled pogroms in Tsarist Russia and other parts of Eastern Europe began migrating there starting in 1882. The parish of Whitechapel in London’s East End grew increasingly populous; by 1888, there were almost 80,000 people living there. A sizable economic underclass emerged as living and working circumstances deteriorated. In the East End, fifty-five per cent of newborns passed away before turning five. Robbery, violence, and alcoholism were widespread, and because of the pervasive poverty, many women turned to prostitution to make ends meet on a daily basis.



Whitechapel was home to 62 brothels and 1,200 prostitutes, according to estimates from London’s Metropolitan Police Service in October 1888. Each night, 8,500 people stayed in the 233 common lodging-houses in Whitechapel, paying fourpence for a single bed and twopence for a “lean-to” (“Hang-over”) rope that was stretched across the dormitory.
Social tensions in Whitechapel steadily increased along with the city’s economic issues. Police interference and popular unrest were caused by regular demonstrations between 1886 and 1889, including Bloody Sunday (1887). Public conceptions of Whitechapel as a known haven of immorality were shaped by anti-Semitism, crime, nativism, racism, social unrest, and extreme deprivation. Such beliefs were reinforced in the fall of 1888 when “Jack the Ripper “‘s” string of horrifying and violent killings got unprecedented public attention.

The biggest suspect of the Jack the Ripper

Since the Victorian era, the Whitechapel Murders, commonly known as the Jack the Ripper murders in London’s East End, have been a mystery.

The enigmas surrounding the identity of the notorious London serial killer have grown to be as complicated as the killings themselves, and the London police, along with people all around the world, continue to conjecture about who Jack The Ripper really is was.




The murders of Mary Ann Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes, and Mary Jane Kelly are thought to have been committed by “Whitechapel Jack,” though some theorize that Jack The Ripper may have been responsible for as many as eleven different killings in London between 1888 and 1891.

 The identity of Jack the Ripper known

Between August and November 1888, under the alias Jack the Ripper, at least five women were murdered in or close to the Whitechapel neighbourhood of London’s East End. The case is among the most well-known unsolved crimes in English history.
Only five of the twelve killings that have been speculatively linked to Jack the Ripper between 1888 and 1892 were connected by authorities to a single perpetrator. The so-called “canonical five” victims were Mary Ann Nichols, whose body was discovered on August 31, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride, Catherine (Kate) Eddowes, and Mary Jane Kelly. Annie Chapman’s body was discovered on September 8, and Mary Jane Kelly’s was discovered on September 30. (found November 9). The general belief at the time was that all the victims were prostitutes, with the exception of Kelly, who was killed while soliciting on the street.

In later novels about the crimes, which often included speculation about Jack the Ripper’s real identity and commented on evidence, that belief was assumed to be genuine. vivid descriptions of the killings he carried out (many of these books, however, were based on fraudulent claims and documents).



The British social historian Hallie Rubenhold argued that Nichols, Chapman, and Eddowes were not prostitutes in her book The Five: The Untold Lives of the Women Killed by Jack the Ripper (2019), and that Stride had only occasionally turned to solicit during times of extreme destitution and emotional suffering (although there is no evidence to support this), Kelly was the only one of the five who could be shown to be a prostitute, and she had been begging when she was killed. According to Rubenhold, the Victorian era’s misogynistic and class-based stereotypes were to blame for the idea that Jack the Ripper was a murderer of prostitutes.

Who were Jack the Ripper’s victims

Mary Ann Nichols, discovered on August 31, 1888, Annie Chapman, discovered on September 8, 1888, Elizabeth Stride, discovered on September 30, 1888, Catherine Eddowes, also discovered on September 30, 1888, and Mary Jane Kelly were the five canonical victims of Jack the Ripper (found November 9, 1888). They were all prostitutes, the victims. Their dead had all been dismembered.
