Left To Right (Jack The Ripper, Part 1)

from We Would Be Dead · host wewouldbedeadpodcast

In 1888, in the Whitechapel district of London, a strange and awful thing began to happen. Women began turning up dead and graphically mutilated right out in the open air. It wasn't long before these horrific murders were all linked to the same unknown man, a man in dark coat and a hat, a man who targeted female sex workers who were down on their luck, a man who would come to be known as, Jack The Ripper. This is it fiends, the granddaddy of all true crime cases and we are diving deep, but not just into "Jack", into the women who's lives he tragically cut short. This week, in our first installment, we'll talk about what it was like to live in Whitechapel in 1888, how the killings began and the lives and terrible deaths of Emma Elizabeth Smith, Martha Tabram, Mary Ann Nichols and Annie Chapman. Next week we'll cover the remaining victims, evidence and the investigations, and in week three we have a special guest to break down suspects and theories. A real live forensic scientist will be joining us to help sort through which theories have weight and which we can discount, and give us his expert opinion on who exactly "Jack the Ripper" was.
