Description:In the small hours of 9 November 1888, 25-year-old Mary Jane Kelly was murdered with more barbaric brutality than perhaps any other victim in modern history. Her abominable fate was perceived by Londoners, the British people, and indeed the whole world as the terrible crescendo of the gruesome murder spree of 1888 known officially as the Whitechapel Murders. For over 130 years, scholars and armchair detectives alike have proposed, theorized, waxed and conjectured on the question of the killer’s identity. Despite much enthusiasm on the part of these researchers, no theory has succeeded in clearing the bar of the generally accepted legal standard, beyond a reasonable doubt. Such a protracted struggle has given rise to the now common sentiment that nothing new can be learned from the Whitechapel Murder case. I beg to differ. Although nearly every book about this case devotes itself to answering the question who, the more important questions, ones which have not been given their due heretofore and which are central to the thesis of this volume, are how and why. In the pages that follow, I will decipher the harrowing events of the 8th & 9th November 1888 during which a young woman, much down on her luck but whose warm charisma and bright eyes were unmistakable to those who knew her, was murdered in such a ghastly display of cruelty and disregard for the sanctity of life that all of humankind suffered an offense for it.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
