WHO WAS JACK THE RIPPER? The shawl that allegedly belonged to Catherine Eddowes In 2014, the shawl that allegedly belonged to Jack the Ripper victim, Catherine Eddowes was tested for DNA, as well as those related to Jack the Ripper suspect Aaron Kosminski and victim, Catherine Eddowes. Catherine Eddowes was murdered by Jack the Ripper on 30 September 1888 and was his fourth known victim. Eddowes was murdered in the early hours in the city of London. She was the second woman killed within an hour that night, after the murder of Elizabeth Stride, known as the ‘double event’. Aaron Kosminski was one of the alleged suspects, he was a Polish Jewish barber and hairdresser in Whitechapel, where the crimes took place. In 1891, he was locked up after he had threatened his sister with a knife. However, there has been a mix up between the names ‘Kosminski’ and ‘Aaron Kosminski’ – which possibly could be two different people. Author Russell Edwards wrote a book Naming Jack the Ripper as Aaron Kosminski. He had bought a shawl which allegedly belonged to Eddowes which was discovered at the crime scene. The shawl was tested for DNA and Edwards claimed that it matched the suspect as Kosminski. Scientists disagreed, they criticised the findings due to several mistakes and assumptions made by Edwards.

Portrait of Catherine Eddowes. The box cameras were so big at that time, it was easier to prop bodies against a wall than set the camera up over them. #jacktheripper (at Scotts Valley, California)

Catherine Eddowes or Kate Kelly as she was also known was Jack the Rippers fourth victim. She was killed on the same night as Elizabeth Stride. It is believed that the murderer killed Eddowes to fulfil his macabre lust for violence as he was not given the opportunity to inflict such vile abuse onto Stride. On the same night of September 30th 1888 Catherine Eddowes was released from police custody at 12.55am after being arrested for being drunk. At 1.45am PC Edwards discovered Eddowes' body in Mitre Square. The policeman is said to have said that she looked more like a pig that had been butchered at market than a human being! Dr. Frederick Gordon Brown a London police surgeon arrived at mitre square at around 2am. Her throats had been cut across, her abdomen ripped open and intensities placed over the right shoulder. The lobe of her right hear had also been cut off. Her face was badly mutilated. Triangles had been scored into her cheeks, her eyelids removed and the tip of her nose severed. Even her top lip had been removed exposing her gums and teeth. The killer had removed the womb and removed her left kidney. Catherine Eddowes was laid to rest on Monday 8th October 1888. She was buried on an unmarked grave in an elm coffin at the city of London cemetery. #jacktheripper #whitechapel #victorian #halloween #eastlondon #london #murder #killer #ripper #ripperology #ripperologist #history #historian #catherineeddowes #funeral #coffin #undertaker #cemetery #leatherapron #postmortem #mortuary #serialkiller
