fallacies

Hasty Generalization	‘I once felt that we would never identify the killer yet finally I came to name D’Onston Stephenson as the only man who can be taken seriously as the Ripper. When I first reached this conclusion, I knew that my research was far from over.’
Texas Sharpshooter	“He associated himself with the murders by being an early Ripperologist and attempting to put forward theories as to why the Ripper killed and who he was. This was sufficient…..”
Appeal to Emotion	“Harris stated he felt ‘Donston’s newspaper writings are filled with deception’”
Wishful Thinking	“Alone, of all the suspects, had the right profile of the opportunities, the motives, and the ideal cover. His background, his personality, his skills, his frame of mind {all point to} him for the fateful role.
