91. Clue: 1888 Edition - Jack the Ripper part 2

Alright, detectives—put on your finest deerstalker hats and grab your magnifying glasses (or just a stiff drink), because it’s time to hunt the Ripper! 🕵️‍♂️🔪

In Part 2 of our Jack the Ripper deep dive, we’re diving headfirst into the investigation—which, spoiler alert, was an absolute disaster. The police were overworked, under-equipped, and apparently way too cool with their boss taking a vacation in the middle of a murder spree. Meanwhile, newspapers were stirring up mass hysteria, and a bunch of civilians thought playing Batman would be more effective than actual law enforcement.

Then, we get to the suspects—and oh boy, this list is chaotic. From shady barbers and artists with a murder kink, to literal members of the royal family, everyone and their mother has been accused of being Jack the Ripper. But who actually fits the bill? And why do some theories make zero sense? So grab your murder board and prepare to get wildly frustrated, because this case has more red herrings than a Victorian fish market.
