Overview

Forget FROM HELL with Johnny DEPP, or a recent story about DNA found on a shawl never listed by the police in a murder case. JACK THE RIPPER THE SECRET OF MARY JANE K. strictly sticks to the facts about THE WHITECHAPEL MONSTER, including some disturbing ones occulted by the police. London, november 9, 1888. Some time after 8:00 AM, Caroline Maxwell spots her pretty neighbor at the corner of Miller's Court. She's a bit surprised to meet her at that time, for the young woman doesn't usually get up that early. She seems to be waiting for someone. Caroline decides to go and greet her. The two women speak for a couple of minutes, then Caroline leaves the Court. This would be quite a banal story if the young woman Caroline Maxwell talked to wasn't Mary Jane Kelly, Jack the Ripper's last victim. When he arrived on the crime scene at 2:00PM, Dr. Bond estimated the time of death between 1:00 AM and 2:00 AM. In other words, the victim was already dead for at least six hours, at the time Caroline Maxwell met Mary Jane. Puzzled, Inspector Frederick Abberline will try to convince Mrs Maxwell that she made a confusion about the date. But the witness sticks on her positions, unaware that two other persons claim to have seen Mary Jane in the morning of the same day... In his memoirs, fifty years later, Walter Dew will comment: If Mrs Maxwell had been a sensation seeker - one of those women who live for the limelight - it would have been easy to discredit her story. She was not. She seemed a sane and sensible woman, and her reputation was excellent. In one way at least her version fitted into the facts as known. We knew that Marie had been drinking the previous night, and, as this was not a habit of hers, illness the next morning was just what might have been expected. First part of JACK THE RIPPER THE SECRET OF MARY JANE K., The untold story focuses on the fascinating mystery about Mary Jane Kelly.
