Wasn't their a copy cat killing around the same time which was disguised to look like a Ripper murder?

[GuildfordGhost]

No, not really. Some historians believe that Ripper victim Mary Jane Kelly was killed by a copycat but it's only a theory. The murder of Alice MacKenzie on 17th July 1889 was probably a copycat killing too, but it wasn't 'disguised' to look like a JTR murder.

May that poor girl Rest in peace. I wonder if anyone ever found our her identity?

Does anyone know where the Whitehall Mystery victim is buried?

[GuildfordGhost]

Good questions! There was a murmuring that the Pinchin Street torso could have been a prostitute named Lydia Hart who disappeared at the time of the murder. As for the Whitehall torso, I'm afraid I have no idea where she's buried but it obviously wouldn't be in one of our East End cemeteries.

My heart breaks for both girls.

Their identities never found. So sad. I seriously want to cry for them.

ah, well its just recently i went with students on a school trip because they are learning about jack the ripper..now all i remember is we had somewhat of a yuppie tour guide; long hair, beard, blazer, shirt jeans and trainers. taught as well however. Do you know someone who fits his description?

[GuildfordGhost]

Good day, Mr killer of the sausage. I'm afraid apart from having the right gender you couldn't be describing anyone less like me. Shaved back and sides and I've never been more than four days unshaved throughout my whole adult life! There's masses of Ripper tour guides. Most of them aren't much good, though!

[sausagekiller]

This may sound weird but you say you are a ripper tour guide? Do you have long hair and abeard if i remember

[GuildfordGhost]

Hello. You're right. I've got a clip up on YouTube of Annie's burial site as well. It has been buried twice over since her funeral and the plot is, as you'll see, big. It's right next to the train line. She's the only victim buried at Manor Park Cemetary. Contact me if you come to London - I'm one of the best-known Ripper tour guides.

Hi I heard Annie Chapmans grave was lost/and or doesn't exist anymore and also that she was apparently burried 12 feet down. I wonder why none of the other alleged "Ripper Victims" graves disappeared without a trace? Just "Dark Annie". Nice footage. I hope to return to London someday to see all this for myself.
