Francis Thompson- Emily Solis

Hasty Generalization/Misleading Authority

"One possible motive for The Ripper to  have killed these five women, and sent letters to the press, was that he thought  that he had been chosen by God. Perhaps by killing these five women he would be inflicting five wounds upon society's church, government, science, literature, and people."

Accident

"Perhaps Jack the Ripper percieved himself as a ‘messiah’ who, by killing within a religious site in Londons east upon the feast days of  martyred saints, could sin and be forgiven.  These saints were all eastern crusaders,  and parton saints of Innocence, Butchers,  Soldiers, Doctors, and Scholars. The Ripper may have attempted to simulate the key concepts of the original crucifixtion. Perhaps by killing five percieved ‘sinners’  Jack the Ripper was attempting to project   the five wounds of Christ’s crucifixion onto  a stigmata of immediate social impact. And thus, as a crusading knight, Jack the  Ripper could elect himself a key player in an apocalypse and be forgiven of his sins."

Texas Sharpshooter

"The first reports of a suspect in the Whitechapel murders gave the desription as someone owning a  leather apron. Francis Thompson later claimed that he owned a leather apron during his homelessness during 1888."
