I saw it last night and it was pretty interesting. Who would have thought that the infamous british murderer would turn out to be American.

Dr Crippin, no?

No some Dr Tukerton or something like that Tukesberry... I forget now it was late last night I was practicly passed out watching it.

But it was an American physician they said and they had record he was in the area and was seen by a few witnesses apparently.

But they don't know who Jack the Ripper was, so how can he be American?

It was just some guys theory. And I'm pretty sure he wasn't american but canadian. He practiced medecine out of Nova Scotia from what I've read before.

That article says it wasn't Tumbelty but it probably was, people at the hotel he was staying say they saw him come in late the night of the last murders with blood on him. Seems pretty convincing to me since the other guy wasn't even near there.

I still think the best theory is that it was a member of the Royal family. That would make most sense too, as it was one big cover up.

Except that tumbelty guy was in that area specificly during that time AND he jumped bail ran to france and dissapeared once he got back to america.

I think it was Sucrak. Being a time travelling, illiterate whore-killing vulcan would completely solve the ripper murders.

It was Prince Albert I tell you.
