CROWN V COLONY — Jack the Ripper: The Killer London Never Caught, and the Five Women History Forgot

CROWN V COLONY — Jack the Ripper: The Killer London Never Caught, and the Five Women History Forgot

Independence Day week begins where the whole genre began. Garret Fisher launches CROWN V COLONY — five days of the United Kingdom's most notorious crimes — in the gaslit fog of Whitechapel, 1888. Over roughly ten weeks of terror, a killer the newspapers christened Jack the Ripper murdered five women in London's East End: Mary Ann Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes, and Mary Jane Kelly — the "canonical five." This episode walks through the Autumn of Terror, the split-jurisdiction investigation led by Inspector Frederick Abberline, the taunting "Dear Boss" and "From Hell" letters most experts now believe were hoaxes, the bloody Goulston Street graffiti that police scrubbed away before it could be photographed, and the century of suspects from a Polish barber to a member of the royal family. It also takes on the disputed 2007 shawl DNA claim naming Aaron Kosminski — and the descendants now fighting for a new inquest. But the real subject isn't the killer. It's the five women history decided to forget.
