The Unresolved Case of Murders by Jack the Ripper

Background

The white chapel murderer or the leather Apron as people from that time used to call Jack the Ripper. Jack the ripper was a famous unidentified serial killer in the 19th century he committed 5 murders, all women. Between August and November 1888,the Whitechapel area of London was scene in the five murders. The killer was called 'Jack the Ripper'. The women murdered were prostitutes, all except for one - Elizabeth Stride – who was horribly mutilated. The focus in this documentary is the discrimination against prositutes as Jack the ripper targeted them.

The first murder, of Mary Ann was took place on 31 August. Annie Chapman was killed on 8 September. Elizabeth Stride and Catherine Eddoweson were murdered 30 September and Mary Jane Kelly on 9 November. These are often called to the 'canonical five' Ripper murders, which means a organised crime. though Martha Tabram, who was stabbed to death on 6 August 1888, is also considered by some 'ripperologists' are to be the type of to be the first victim.

The main issues in this Documentary are discrimination against women and in particular against prositutes. All of the murders were gruesome and brutal. His motive was to disembody them, cutting out organs and completely mutilating them. There was speculation that he may have been a surgeon, due to his medical methods of destroying the human body. Murder is an another issue in the documentary.

Examples of discrimination in Jack the ripper being violent to women, murder destroying their body he also humiliated them. Being violent to women is way is by killing them and mutilating their body. The killings that began in August 1888 stood outthe other violent crime of the time: They were marked by sadistic murderer suggesting a mind more Psychopath, sociopathic and more hateful than most citizens. Jack the Ripper didn't just kill out life with a knife,he mutilated and humiliated women, and his crimes seemed to portray an violence for the entire female gender.

Character Themes

Jack the ripper- one of the things that puzzles many people about this particular long ago murder spree is quite why the crimes are still so famous, even though over a hundred and twenty five years have elapsed since they occurred. If, as is generally believed, Jack the Ripper had only five victims, then he wasn't a particularly prolific murderer, compared to many who have come since, and the fact that his so-called reign of terror lasted a mere twelve or so weeks means that he wasn't at large for a particularly long period of time. How modern people will likely to discuss about this documentary probably they will be like why did he do this, What did he earn from doing this criminal act. Where did he go and who was he this will be the main things the people might talk after watching this.

Conclusion

When Jack the Ripper's murders suddenly stopped, in the fall of 1888, London citizens wanted answers that would not come, even more than a century later. The ongoing case—which has spawned an industry of books, films, TV series and historical tours—has met with a number of hindrances, including lack of evidence, a gamut of misinformation and false testimony, and tight regulations by the Scotland Yard. Jack the Ripper has been the topic of news stories for more than 130 years, and will likely continue to be for decades to come.
