Subject: Jack the Ripper
In your opinion, who was Jack the Ripper?……..I’m not sure any of the suspects are the actual Ripper but Francis Tumblety with his specimen jars full of womens reproductive organs is very strange…
Develop a typology that includes:
(1) Sociological background….probably well educated
(2) Physical description….not scary looking, probably came off as very charming
(3) The Ripper‘s interpretation of sex and violence and
(4) Psychological description…..very messed up in the head!
Do you believe the Ripper was one of Scotland Yard’s suspects or someone else?
Do you believe the Ripper was a practicing serial killer before the White Chapel murders? Why? …..yes!…
Do you believe the Ripper left England and continued his activities elsewhere? Why? …I think it was very likely that he fled the area and continued killing.
