The Vicitms of Mr Ripper

As I've been looking up for the facts for the introduction to our presentation I have come across a few facts that I didn't know. For starters all of his victims were strangled which was mainly to stop them from screaming out linking with the fact that on all occassions no such sounds were heard on the nights of the murders, and also there were murders that took place before which are not ruled out of the "ripper" murders. For instance the christmas of 1887 saw the murder of "Fairy Fay"(although her real name is never stated) who was found with an metal instrument forced into her body, and like the other 5 victims was brutaly mutilated she was taking a short cut home from Mitre square which also links in with Catherine Eddowes' murder. When I typed in her name on google the first link to pop up was Jack the Ripper, which shows how much she is associated with him, meaning this could of been his very first attack or even experiment. Although there is no official documentation of this apart from a newspaper article.

Annie Millwood, Ada Wilson both claimed to be stabbed by a man in the early part of 1888, these may well of been experiements of "Jack the Ripper" both women survived their attacks. Emma Smith who was attacked by a group of men, although some think it may only of been one man, later died in hospital she also like "Fairy Fay" had an object rammed into her, this time it was in ther vaginal area, and Martha Tabram, who was murdered and stabbed more than 30 times on the 6th August (not long before the murder of Mary Ann Nichols) may of been the first victims of "Jack the Ripper" along with "Fairy Fay".
