It was Aaron Kosminski. Yeah, I never heard of him either. I've heard various theories and this matched none of them.
We'll see, I guess.

Investigator Claims To Have Solved The Ripper Mystery Using DNA
After seeing the movie From Hell, businessman Russell Edwards was intrigued enough by the crimes to have bought a shawl that was supposedly found near Eddowes' body. The shawl was collected by one of the police officers investigating the crime, though preservation of evidence was more lax in those days.
While other “Ripperologists” have dismissed the shawl as a fake, Edwards believed its Michaelmas flowers were an obscure clue left by the killer warning of his next attack, which occurred on November 8, 1888 at the Eastern Orthodox Churches' Michaelmas festival.
Edwards had the shawl tested and found not only blood, but also semen. The DNA was too degraded by the passage of time for microsatellite analysis, but Dr. Jari Louhelainen, a senior molecular biology lecturer at Liverpool John Moores University, matched the mitochondrial DNA from the blood to a descendent of Eddowes, using a technique he developed for extracting genetic material from cloth.
Edwards has also claimed to have matched the DNA from cells in the semen to a descendent of Kosminski's sister. Kosminski was long considered one of the main suspects for the crimes. He lived in the areas where they occurred and was known for his severe mental illness and his misogyny. In addition, the crimes of the original Ripper stopped after he was committed to a mental institution.
Edwards is claiming the evidence as conclusive, but has chosen to publish his claims in a book and the frequently anti-science Daily Mail, rather than a scientific publication. |
Be skeptical. Be very skeptical. |
Uncertainty may make you uncomfortable. Certainty makes you ridiculous.
Why not question something for a change?
