MURDERED: Mary Ann Nichols
In the autumn of 1888, five women were killed in the Whitechapel district of London in a series of murders that remain officially unsolved after 136 years. The case became the origin of the named serial killer as a cultural phenomenon, with a press-coined name circulating before police had identified a single confirmed suspect, two police forces operating without unified command, and key evidence destroyed or never recovered. The identity of the killer, the author of the letters that named him, and the reason the murders stopped have never been established.
