The true identity of Jack the Ripper has eluded generation after generation of investigators. The mystery has been around for over 125 years, and after dozens of named suspects, none have zeroed in on the killer.
The elusive character has baffled investigators over the years, and some have even implicated famous names such as Vincent Van Gogh the artist, Lewis Carroll of Alice In Wonderland fame, and several members of the Royal family.
However, a retired homicide detective named Trevor Marriot says that the true nature of Jack the Ripper has been staring us in the face all along. He believes that a German sailor, Carl Feigenbaum, was the one who committed all the gruesome murders, and maybe even more than those recorded in England at the time.
Marriot says he's uncovered the identity of Jack the Ripper by combining the investigation of old documents, and high-tech forensics.
The most popular elements of the Jack the Ripper case is this: Mary Ann Nichols, Annie Chapman, Elizabeth Stride, Catherine Eddowes and Mary Jane Kelly--five women, all of whom believed to be prostitutes, were killed by stabbing within close proximity of each other (a fourth of a mile), in Whitechapel, a neighborhood of London. Accounts and pictures of the corpses circulate the internet, with the bodies horribly mutilated and disemboweled after their deaths.
Marriot point the finger at the sailor Feigenbaum as Jack the Ripper, a sailor who happened to have his ship docked at the harbor at the time of the murders. Investigative conclusions have indicated that the infamous serial killer was a traveler due to the time gap in between the murders, and that Jack the Ripper might be a sailor, as sailors often frequent the brothels in the Whitechapel district.
But the most convincing evidence of Jack the Ripper's identity was a testimony from Feigenbaum's own lawyer, who says that his client may have unknowingly confessed to the crimes by saying he had been inflicted by a disease that makes him desire to kill and mutilate women.
Feigenbaum was convicted and executed for an unrelated crime-far away, in New York. Marriot notes that there had been similar murders especially in areas near where Feigenbaum's ship was docked.
Speculations that jack the Ripper was a surgeon illustrated the image of a well-dressed man, probably from the middle-class or higher, with medical knowledge, for having the precision for disemboweling corpses, but Marriot says that it is nothing more than an urban myth.
