Something you might find interesting.I made a detour into the all to real horror cabinett that exists. Read a new book on Jack The Ripper. It has collected a lot articles from many all putting forward their opinion. This after first presenting us with the bare bones of the case. The facts which isn't sadly enough very many. What struck me about the authors that have written these articles was that many had a very arrogant tone. essentially saying "After reading this i have no doubt that everyone will agree with me that XX is the only candidate that fits. XX was Jack The Ripper. How anyone can have any doubt about that is beyond me". I'm qouting. Practically saying thal others that have studied the same facts as he are idiots and that they should all bow to his brilliance. When all he has, or anyone has, is a theory based on some facts and a lot of suppositions, presumptions and possibles. There was also a few that took the, according to me, more correct line of saying "It has gone a long time and we will probably never know the whole truth but to my mind the absolutely most promising candidate is XX because of this and that.
Most theories i knew about, a few new ones but nothing that makes one say. This is it! Finally the riddle is solved. But it was a solid going through facts suspects and theories. What would have fun would have been if after every theory presented someone had written what speaks against it. In these articles we heard the pros for many candidate but not the cons. Some is fairly obvious but some i wish were spelled out by someone who knows more than me. Now it is up to the reader to decide which theory you like best but that is a faulty reasoning since you're (or at least I) dont know enough always to see the the holes or omissions in the theories. Otherwise a good book. If you like true crime that is and if you dont mind being reminded of what humans are capable of.
