00:001888, London. Five women murdered in ten weeks. The killer wrote to the police, and signed his name, Jack the
00:10Ripper. In over a century, they never found him.
00:13It began in Whitechapel, a poor district in London's East End. Fog, gas lamps, crowded alleys. On August 31st, Mary
00:25Ann Nichols was found dead on a dark street. The first.
00:30Eight days later, Annie Chapman. Same pattern, same streets. Panic spread through Whitechapel. Women were afraid to walk home at
00:42night.
00:42Then the letter started. Someone wrote to the police, boasting. One letter was signed, Dear Boss, and it gave the
00:53killer his name, Jack the Ripper.
00:57September 30th brought horror twice in one night. Elizabeth Stride, then Catherine Eddowes, found within the hour. The papers called
01:08it the double event.
01:10A package arrived with another letter. From hell. Inside the box, half a human kidney. The writer claimed it belonged
01:20to one of the victims. Doctors could never be sure.
01:24The final victim, Mary Jane Kelly, was killed on November 9th, inside her own room. The only murder indoors.
01:35After her, the killings stopped. Just like that.
01:40So who was he? A royal doctor? A painter? A butcher from Poland named Aaron Kosminski? The police's own chief
01:49suspect? Over a hundred names? And not one ever proven?
01:55In 2019, scientists claimed DNA from an old shawl pointed to Kosminski. Other experts tore the claim apart.
02:04The science is disputed. And the mystery stands. Scotland Yard never closed the file. Five victims, zero convictions.
02:15One hundred thirty-seven years later, Jack the Ripper is still the most famous unsolved case on earth.
