If Jack The Ripper existed today.....

[Alex The Great]

And he did the same crimes in the same way....Would he get away like he did in 1888?

 

[DOG LIPS]

No. Too many CSI shows.

Plus the hooker population carries guns now.

 

[CelticPredator]

I'm writing a story where he kinda is....the actual Jack the Ripper was an Alien who came down hundreds of years ago, just to kill people. And hookers. Was never caught. Eh.

 

[Aesop Rocks]

Gil Grissom wouldn't allow it.

 

[CelticPredator]

That was....until.....he left the building....





YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

 

[Alex The Great]

Well, Jack was either 1 of 2 things...a complete maniac or a criminal genius. Maybe both.

He could I think....He the reputation of being able to dissapear into the dark...melt away even.....And if you type of Jack The Rippper victim Mary Kelly......what he did to her was one crazy thing....yikes.

 

[Aesop Rocks]

That was....until.....he left the building....





YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Wrong CSI.

 

[Aesop Rocks]

I think he would have gotten caught, I mean his stuff wasn't too complex.

 

[chaseter]

I think Alex wants to murder people and this is his chance to be the first JtR copy cat. He needs our input if he will get caught or not.

 

[Alex The Great]

Lies, It's funny. today I was 2 subway stops away from Whitechapel....the area of the killings. Creepy.

 

[Aesop Rocks]

If you're gonna be a serial killer. Do it in the boonies. Not the big city.

 

[Jack O Lantern]

Are we even sure there was a Jack the Ripper and not just about murders tied together but actually were not related?

 

[DOG LIPS]

Morg did it.

 

[Alex The Great]

Are we even sure there was a Jack the Ripper and not just about murders tied together but actually were not related?

3 women, prostitutes, who were prostituting themselves on said night....dead. Same Injuries, same style. Organs stolen. ( A heart, half a kidney and a womb!) 1 women with a neck slash, just like the others, bit with no mutilation possibly due to being interrupted by a man riding a horse carrige. 1 woman found completly destoyed.
The canonical five they were called. there were actually a woman kiled before the first Actual JtR victim with similar inuies, but the mutilations were slightly different....the guts were not ripped open, but just stabbed. It's possible she was Jacks first....but he just slashed the neck and stabbed the guts before he developed his ripping method. Also, in 1889 a woman was found with Jack like injuries....some say she was the Rippers last....some say not....who knows, though it is agreed by most that Mary Kelly was Jack's last.

curiousity got the better of me...

Oh my lanta! yikes

 

[-Arya-]

Of course not. Getting away with a crime is technically impossible these days.

No. Too many CSI shows

No, see -- that's a very good thing. You know, with so many CSI-style shows and Discovery documentaries and all that -- if you're careful enough, you can get away with murder.

Plus the hooker population carries guns now.

On the other hand..

 

[Maximus One]

If your gonna be a serial killer best bet is to kill at random with no pre-meditation. That and just kill hobos cuz nobody cares about hobos anyways

Plus it'd be a public service.

 

[Maximus One]

Getting away with murder is not impossible nowadays at all. There are plenty of unsolved murders still to this day. Like I said though the best way to get away with it is to murder with no pre-meditation. Completely randomly and please if your gonna kill and expect to get away with it DONT KILL SOMEONE YOU KNOW! People are just so stupid and think "Oh Ill never get caught that only happens to other people not to me" Idiots really. I still cant believe it took so damn long to find BTK. Course with him taking years off at a time didnt make it easy for them

 

[Maximus One]

Plus it'd be a public service.

Yea you could prolly video tape yourself killing a hobo and send it to the police and they wouldnt even care. Just go someplace like Portland OR and start killing all the lil homeless teenage junkies. No body would really care and they would think its over drugs anyways

 

[Raiden]

I think forensic science is so advanced now, that it will be extremely hard for Jack the Ripper to get away with his crimes if he were to committ them today. I've read that Scotland Yard actually had a suspect in mind, but he was a respected doctor and someone prominent in the society, so they didn't arrest him. It might explain why this case was never solved.

 

[-Arya-]

If investigators are persistent enough nobody will get away with a crime. Of course, this is only the case in an ideal world.

 

[Maximus One]

It has always been considered that Jack The Ripper had to have been some kinda of Doctor just because the way he totally vivisected the hookers. I seriously think something almost exactly like From Hell is what actually happened. Cept the whole Opium making Johnny Depp see the killings thing lol

We need a big serial killer like that nowadays. That'd be damn good entertainment. As long as they don't kill me, I'm fine.
