How did she try to solve the mystery?
One of the great unsolved murder
of all time is that of Jack the Ripper.
the autumn of 1888 a brutal murderer walked
the dark, foggy streets of London, terrorizing the
inhabitants of the city. The victims were all
women and the police seemed poweriess to stop
the murders. Panic and fear among Londoners
was increased by a letter sent by the murderer
to Scotland Yard. In the letter he made fun of the
police's attempts to catch him and promised
to kill again. tt finished, ‘Yours truly, Jack the
Ripper’ This was the first of many letters sent
to the police. The murders continued ~ seven
total. But in November, they suddenly stopped,
three months after they had first begun, 4
Jack the Ripper was never caught and for more
than a century historians, writers, policemen,
and detectives have tried to discover and prove
his identity. Hundreds of articles and books hi
been written and many films made about the
murders. But the question ‘Who was Jack the
Ripper?’ has remained unanswered. There
hhave been plenty of suspects, including a
doctor, a businessman, a painter, and even
a member of the royal tamily
‘Three years ago the American crime writer
Patricia Cornwell left aside her fictional
detective, Kay Scarpetta, and tried to cole
the real-life murder mystery of Jack the
Ripper. After spending a considerable amount Dee ed
of time and money on her investigation, and aa eet
analyzing DNA samples, Cornwell thinks che
has proved who jack the Ripper really was...76 Now listen to the first part of an interview with Ken Morton, an expert on Jack the Ripper.
