Perhaps Jack the ripper was a woman!


Whenever you read articles about Jack the Ripper it is always presumed that the killer is a man. There are over 20 suspects all of which are men. What if the killer was actually a woman? Let’s look at the evidence. Women were killed and mutilated late at night. Organs were removed quite neatly apparently. Whoever did this would have been covered in blood on those nights.  If what is suspected is true, that it was a smart middle or upper-class man, perhaps a doctor, then surely someone well dressed and covered in blood would have been seen by someone and looked odd.  Who could roam the streets of London covered in blood without anyone noticing or looking odd?  How about a midwife?  It's just a thought, but why not?  A woman scorned is not to be underestimated.
