Having already stated my interest in strange and wonderful things. I am now going to tell you about a fascination i have with Jack the Ripper. I have read hundreds of books about him/her (who can be sure it was a man!), books that look at many of the suspects and investigate the murders in detail. The fact that documents still exist of this crime is astounding, it is said that the police commissioner at the time knew exactly who he was, but because the killers identity was so high profile they would not arrest him.
There are many people who are thought of as suspects in this case the top five being:
- James Maybrick
- Francis Tumblety
- Walter Sickert
- The Royal Conspiracy
- Joseph Barnett
This list has been compiled by the following website and they are rated by the public.

I personally feel that these murders will never be solved (a thought that annoys me greatly!!)
The person who committed these crimes was intelligent, brave, mysterious and extremely good at concealing themselves. Oh and a bit mentally disturbed!!
