1 00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:02,560 Speaker 1: Well, they're delicious. 2 00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:05,360 Speaker 2: Friends, you've made it this far, or maybe this is 3 00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:08,039 Speaker 2: the first time you've joined an episode, but welcome to Hooded. 4 00:00:08,080 --> 00:00:12,960 Speaker 2: What Now from the Vault? This is well from the Vault. 5 00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:17,720 Speaker 2: It's an episode about Mary Jane Kelly, the fifth and 6 00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:21,439 Speaker 2: final canonical victim of the serial killer known as Jack 7 00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:25,160 Speaker 2: the Ribber. So this episode's going to be a bit 8 00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:27,520 Speaker 2: different from the other four you've listened to if you 9 00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:33,280 Speaker 2: have listened to the previous in the series, because we 10 00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:37,760 Speaker 2: don't know that much about Mary Jane Kelly's life, and 11 00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:41,479 Speaker 2: what we do know is dubious for a lot of it. 12 00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 1: And so. 13 00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:47,640 Speaker 2: We have this And I haven't really talked specifically about 14 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:50,520 Speaker 2: the deaths of many of the victims because I wanted 15 00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:53,920 Speaker 2: to focus on their lives. But in this my friend 16 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 2: Melissa Rayliffe, her and I have a very deep discussion 17 00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 2: regarding Mary Jane Kelly, because out of all the victims, 18 00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 2: her death makes the least sense in the scenario. But 19 00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 2: I'm not gonna say this here. You're gonna find out 20 00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,360 Speaker 2: when you listen to the episode. 21 00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 1: But we were there one day and one of the 22 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 1: girls in the in the kitchen, it was like, where's Emily. 23 00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:24,640 Speaker 1: What's Emily like? And everyone's like, who the fuck is Emily? Like, 24 00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 1: who is this Emily person? Sheeps talking about? She thought 25 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:32,319 Speaker 1: my name was Emily. So I ended So I ended 26 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:38,319 Speaker 1: up with this American persona called Emily. And Emily has 27 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 1: the gole fry. And Emily pronounces words incorrectly. I mean, 28 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:45,479 Speaker 1: I know I pronounce words incorrectly because of my accident. 29 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 1: But Emily loves these jella panos and the tortillas. Like 30 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 1: Emily is so white. I mean, I know I'm white, 31 00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:59,480 Speaker 1: but like Emily is so it's such it's such a 32 00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 1: good time. But honestly, Erin and Tara in Savannah, Amy 33 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 1: and Safety John and In Jeremy chare me with the puppies. 34 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 1: I just ah, oh, it was so this one time 35 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:21,840 Speaker 1: at Pagan Camp. I cannot convey you how much fun 36 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 1: this was. I mean I did see a lot of 37 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,520 Speaker 1: boobs and a lot more genit tale you than I 38 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,920 Speaker 1: was anticipating I would see, you know, because there are 39 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: actually signs up in certain areas going like, you know, 40 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:37,040 Speaker 1: you need to be dressed to be here, like you 41 00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 1: need to be clothed or to be in this like location. 42 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 1: But it's such a wonderful time, and I I honestly 43 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 1: would do so much to get back. I would. I 44 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 1: would love to go back there, just a holiday because 45 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 1: it's just so wonderful.

First, we've got to get our 48 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,920 Speaker 1: source on Mary Jane Kelly and the Victims of Jack 49 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 1: the Ripper by Neil Schulden.

Are you seating 60 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:54,320 Speaker 1: comfortably good? Then let's begin so this final episode in 61 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 1: the five canonical Victims of Jack the Ripper. So this 62 00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 1: is about Mary Jane Kelly, and it's because she's known 63 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 1: as the last canonical victim of Jack the Ripper. I 64 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:10,840 Speaker 1: don't think she is. And I have a special guest 65 00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 1: later on who's going to come and help me elaborate that. 66 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 1: But that's the case. That being said, Mary Jane Kelly 67 00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 1: is probably the most elusive of every victim that we 68 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:27,279 Speaker 1: have dealt with thus far. Because we know Jack, we 69 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:30,279 Speaker 1: know absolutely nothing about it. Sorry excuse the pun, but 70 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 1: we don't. Every piece of information we have is definitely 71 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:38,359 Speaker 1: second third hand. There are very few documents related to 72 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 1: her existence, very few, indeed, and we're basically running off 73 00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 1: a rumor mill. It's whispers and hints and stories. There 74 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: is very little concrete evidence, which has led a lot 75 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,279 Speaker 1: of people to, you know, consider one option or the 76 00:04:56,360 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 1: other and to assume that something happened one way or 77 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:07,040 Speaker 1: the other. And with Mary Jane, like her early life, 78 00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 1: we don't know. We don't know her day of birth, 79 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 1: we don't know where she lived, we don't know how 80 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 1: she was brought up, we don't know what type of 81 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 1: family she had. Now, the story she tells, She tells 82 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:22,599 Speaker 1: different people, different tales as far as we know, because 83 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:25,480 Speaker 1: again we're getting it second, third hand, and a lot 84 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 1: of this information is coming through, you know, interviews for 85 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:32,359 Speaker 1: paper or in the inquest after her death. You know, 86 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,599 Speaker 1: it's things like that. So she may have been born 87 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:39,719 Speaker 1: in Ireland and then moved to Wales. She may have 88 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 1: been from Wales her whole life. Like, we're not sure. 89 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:50,599 Speaker 1: There was a Mary Jane Kelly who was baptized in 90 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:55,599 Speaker 1: Limerick and whose family did emigrate. Now this could have 91 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 1: been another Mary Jane Kelly. This could very well be 92 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,760 Speaker 1: a case of mistaken identity, or not mistaken identity, stolen identity, 93 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 1: identity theft. It could very well be. There's no guarantee 94 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 1: one way or the other. But there are literally no 95 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 1: Welsh census records pertaining to this, and if Mary Jane 96 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 1: was who she said she was, she would show up 97 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:25,119 Speaker 1: in at least one census record. So she tells people 98 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:28,279 Speaker 1: that she was married to a coal miner called Davies 99 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 1: or Davis, which fairly common decent Welsh name. There's no 100 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 1: record of them. There's no record of their marriage, so 101 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 1: if she was in a relationship with him, it was 102 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 1: more like a common law thing as opposed to an 103 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:48,679 Speaker 1: actual marriage. But again the census records they don't show anything. 104 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 1: We have nothing, And as a historian, may I tell 105 00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 1: you this is incredibly frustrating because she was a person 106 00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 1: and her story deserves to be told. We don't really 107 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,039 Speaker 1: know it. Maybe she didn't want anybody to know it. 108 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:07,920 Speaker 1: And then, in which case, none of her bloody business 109 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 1: is it now whether she was with Davies or wasn't 110 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:12,880 Speaker 1: with Davies, whether they split up, or he died or 111 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:16,720 Speaker 1: whatever happened, because apparently it was like she was like sixteen, 112 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 1: so she says when she married him, and then after 113 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: this she ends up moving to London. Now, although her 114 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 1: information is very much second third hand, we can use 115 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 1: this a wee bit to get a week grasp of 116 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:34,200 Speaker 1: what Mary Jane was like. I mean, we know that 117 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 1: probably her name wasn't Mary Jane, and she probably didn't 118 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 1: come from Ireland. So when she arrives in London in 119 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 1: eighteen eighty three, there were a few things that we 120 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:52,720 Speaker 1: get from her. She's well educated, she can read, she 121 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 1: is articulate, and she can draw. Now she's noted as 122 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 1: being a you know, a good artist, that she can 123 00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 1: draw quite well. Now, I mean this could have been 124 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:07,239 Speaker 1: a talent that she picked up you know, here and there. 125 00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 1: But in girls' schools, drawing was something that was that 126 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 1: was very much put forward. So she was, you know, 127 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 1: from a wealthier area and from a wealthy school. Chances 128 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 1: are she would have had art lessons. She would have 129 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 1: had that. Because of the way that she talked about 130 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 1: the places that she had lived, we can surmise that 131 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:34,080 Speaker 1: she did live in Cardiff before she lived in London, 132 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 1: and she does tell one of her lovers that that 133 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 1: she had a long stay in a hospital in Wales. Now, 134 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:45,200 Speaker 1: if she was in a public hospital, a public funded hospital, 135 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:49,880 Speaker 1: we would have a record of where she'd been, especially 136 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 1: if she was under her own name, if Mary Jane 137 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,080 Speaker 1: was her name, But this isn't there. So either she 138 00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:58,080 Speaker 1: was there under an assumed name, or there was the 139 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 1: possibility she was put into a asylum I know terms, 140 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 1: but that's kind of what happened when wealthier girls ended 141 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 1: up in you know, situations out of worldlock. So if 142 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:18,080 Speaker 1: she had been pregnant and given birth in one of 143 00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:21,960 Speaker 1: these institutions, she very well could have been from an 144 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 1: upper class family who had that but the shame of that, 145 00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 1: for whatever reason, meant that she couldn't go back because 146 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 1: of their particular perceptions on purity and womanhood and everything 147 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 1: like that. In the era, she would have been shamed, 148 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:41,240 Speaker 1: and so going back to her family may not have 149 00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 1: been an option for her, and so going to the 150 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:45,760 Speaker 1: place where there was a lot of people and a 151 00:09:45,760 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 1: lot more opportunities, she ends up in London. Now. One 152 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:53,080 Speaker 1: thing people say about her is, apart from the fact 153 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:55,720 Speaker 1: that she's meant to be beautiful, she's quite young. So 154 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 1: she's younger than everyone else we've dealt with so far. 155 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:02,319 Speaker 1: She's meant to be in her twenties, and she's got 156 00:10:03,080 --> 00:10:06,960 Speaker 1: perhaps auburn hair. There is stories of it being dyed 157 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 1: with hennah, but we're not entirely sure about that. But 158 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 1: she's pretty, she's young, and she doesn't really have an accent. Now, 159 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 1: in order to not have an accent that has to 160 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 1: be pushed out of you, you have to be trained 161 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 1: not to have an accent. So I don't know if 162 00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 1: you've ever noticed this, but you get a lot of 163 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 1: people who would be like, I don't really have an accent. 164 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 1: Like in Scotland for years, people would say I didn't 165 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 1: have an accent, but you'll hear it. And a good 166 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,720 Speaker 1: friend of mine actually commented on my voice the other 167 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 1: day and he was like, yeah, your accent just flipped 168 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:49,440 Speaker 1: in the middle of a conversation. I'm like, yeah, I 169 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 1: do that. So sometimes it'll become more Scottish and sometimes 170 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 1: it becomes a little more Irish, just depending on location 171 00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 1: and what I'm talking about. And didn't realize I did 172 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 1: it for so long, but I'd do it. But yeah, 173 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:09,680 Speaker 1: so if she grew up in England and had elocution lessons, 174 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:13,200 Speaker 1: there was every possibility that she would you not have 175 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 1: an accent. I'm not saying I had elocution lessons, by 176 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:20,760 Speaker 1: the way, I was just told to speak properly my 177 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 1: grand her family's from the Highlands, and yeah, this is 178 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 1: kind of how things end up. But yeah, with Mary Jane, 179 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 1: she was how do I put this, well spoken, and 180 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:40,520 Speaker 1: no one ever assumed she was any other nationality and 181 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:43,319 Speaker 1: they wouldn't even consider it, like it wasn't a possibility 182 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 1: to them until she told them, Like she would tell 183 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:51,080 Speaker 1: people she was Irish, she was Welsh, but she didn't 184 00:11:51,120 --> 00:11:54,839 Speaker 1: have an accent, like she didn't have anything like any 185 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 1: Lults or anything that related to that. You'll see a 186 00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 1: lot of like movies and stuff that are in doc documentaries. 187 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:04,680 Speaker 1: Is when they, you know, do portray her, they always 188 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 1: give her this kind of fake Irish accent and it's 189 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:11,560 Speaker 1: always weird. But yet elocution is always one option. But 190 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:15,720 Speaker 1: there's always the possibility that because accents, especially in the UK, 191 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:21,120 Speaker 1: they're incredibly regional, so she could have just hidden it, 192 00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:24,959 Speaker 1: disguised it. But again, she would need to be I'm 193 00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 1: not saying she would need to be of a certain 194 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:28,559 Speaker 1: class to do that, but in order to pronounce things 195 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 1: a certain way and not fall into certain colloquial habits, 196 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,679 Speaker 1: she would have to know how to do that. So 197 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,560 Speaker 1: there's always the possibility that she was from a wealthier 198 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 1: family from a certain area and you know, either couldn't 199 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 1: go back or didn't want information to go back to them. 200 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 1: But again this is all guesswork because we don't know. 201 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:53,360 Speaker 1: What we do know is that she arrived in London 202 00:12:53,720 --> 00:13:01,000 Speaker 1: in eighteen eighty three, so she somehow gets a job, 203 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 1: you know, as a high end sex worker under a 204 00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 1: madam in London, and these are easy positions to get 205 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 1: being being a sex worker in these kind of areas 206 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:15,720 Speaker 1: up in like Haymarket and picc a Lilly, pic a lily, 207 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:19,680 Speaker 1: that's that's a sauce Piccadilly. She would really need to 208 00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:25,080 Speaker 1: have something special or some kind of in So her 209 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 1: name even fluctuates a little bit here, so sometimes she's 210 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:34,520 Speaker 1: known as Mary Jane in sometimes Mary Janette, and it's 211 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 1: quite possible. She also spoke French, which you can learn, 212 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:42,720 Speaker 1: you know, in certain areas in life. But again, you know, 213 00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:46,440 Speaker 1: French was a you know, an international language of commerce, 214 00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 1: of business, of dealings, so it was quite a common 215 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 1: language for again wealthier girls to learn. So anyway, in 216 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:03,200 Speaker 1: the eighteen eighties in London and these these madams, they 217 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:10,200 Speaker 1: would be called procuresses. So it wasn't just come in women, 218 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 1: lie on your back, you know, and a insert remove, 219 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:20,120 Speaker 1: repeat next person. It was kind of more like an 220 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:25,840 Speaker 1: escort service or even the girlfriend experience because a client, 221 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:30,920 Speaker 1: they wouldn't just purchase sex. That wasn't the point. You 222 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:35,600 Speaker 1: were supposed to buy a women's company from the evening. 223 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:39,360 Speaker 1: So the women that were involved in this, the sex 224 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:43,040 Speaker 1: workers that were doing this, they had to be of 225 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 1: a certain elk. They had to be able to have 226 00:14:45,720 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 1: a conversation they had to be able to dance, which 227 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:52,600 Speaker 1: was incredibly important. You know, they had to know the 228 00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 1: lay of the land, make the appropriate you know comments, jokes, YadA, YadA, 229 00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 1: and a lot of the time, certain areas would be 230 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:06,960 Speaker 1: booked out, like gentlemen would book, like dance halls, like 231 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 1: clubs would book you know, these kind of areas and 232 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 1: would have these kind of events so that they could 233 00:15:12,440 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 1: spend an evening with a lady adorn her with you know, 234 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 1: gifts and clothing and you know, things that would make 235 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:26,720 Speaker 1: it not seem inappropriate to be together, because if a 236 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:28,960 Speaker 1: gentleman were taking a lady out on a night in 237 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,600 Speaker 1: the town, you know, it would have to have the 238 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:36,680 Speaker 1: appearance of respectability. And Mary Kelly herself, she often referred 239 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 1: to this as her career, like she saw sex work 240 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 1: as a career. Whether she'd kind of leaned into its 241 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 1: lot in life or whatever, that's what she did. She 242 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:51,360 Speaker 1: was generally comfortable at points, so she would have jewels 243 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 1: and clothing and she would be safe, you know, to 244 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 1: a certain point. And again it was relatively comfortable is 245 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:03,400 Speaker 1: as far as the situation goes. And although she wasn't 246 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 1: like a Corrasan who would have you know, very select, 247 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:10,440 Speaker 1: like one or two clients. She probably had a few 248 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:13,800 Speaker 1: repeat customers in that build a level of trust and 249 00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 1: a level of intimacy. Now she ends up leaving her 250 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 1: madam's house, the brothel, whatever you want to call it, 251 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 1: and she ends up leaving. Now she does say that 252 00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:32,360 Speaker 1: she goes to Paris, didn't like it, and comes back. 253 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 1: We don't know if this is correct. We don't know 254 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 1: if she actually went to France. We don't know what 255 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 1: happened there or why she left. There's you know, theories 256 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 1: that she was trafficked. There's theories that she went there 257 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 1: with a gentleman who promised her the world, and Mary 258 00:16:54,720 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 1: Jane Kelly's personalityes made that dissolve. So there's the concept 259 00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:06,840 Speaker 1: which did happen, you know, well, to do escort sex workers. 260 00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:12,879 Speaker 1: They were traffic to France because English ladies were fun. 261 00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:16,480 Speaker 1: It was a fad, it was, you know, the trendy thing, 262 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 1: and so they would be taken and you know, it 263 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:24,160 Speaker 1: would not be as pleasant a scenario as they had 264 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:27,919 Speaker 1: had before. I'm not saying the scenario before was pleasant 265 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 1: by any means, but this was worse because again, language barriers, 266 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:39,200 Speaker 1: undramiliar locations, culture, et cetera. But then there's always the 267 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:42,240 Speaker 1: possibility that she went there with a man named was 268 00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:47,200 Speaker 1: it Cleig Quig, this dude. Anyway, she goes over and 269 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:53,240 Speaker 1: she gambled, She was loud, she had no secrets, and 270 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:58,440 Speaker 1: he was more reserved. And so although life in Powers 271 00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:01,880 Speaker 1: should be kind of fun, especially for her in that era, 272 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:05,479 Speaker 1: because of what Paris was then, you know, it was 273 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,439 Speaker 1: the place to be. I mean, it's still relatively the 274 00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:12,679 Speaker 1: place to be, but it was just a very exciting, 275 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:17,240 Speaker 1: you know, place at that time. But for whatever reason, 276 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:23,400 Speaker 1: goes to France, comes back from France, and she doesn't 277 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:28,040 Speaker 1: go back to her original madam. We don't know why 278 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:34,120 Speaker 1: where Bridges burned was, did an incident occur? We don't 279 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,680 Speaker 1: know exactly why she left. Was the madam The very 280 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:40,000 Speaker 1: reason she was trafficked was the madam mad that she 281 00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:42,480 Speaker 1: had left to you know, start her life with this 282 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 1: man and thus leaving her you know, her clients without 283 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:50,520 Speaker 1: one of their favorite pets. Whom's to say, Yes, I 284 00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:52,760 Speaker 1: know what I just said, but I am thinking of 285 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:57,199 Speaker 1: other perspectives. And even though it makes my skin crawl, So, 286 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:04,760 Speaker 1: for whatever reason, and Mary Jane Kelly is now in Ratcliffe. 287 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:08,119 Speaker 1: So the Ratcliffe Highway, it's in London, it's near the harbor. 288 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 1: It's pretty busy, pretty crowded. There's always sailors and drunks, 289 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:16,879 Speaker 1: and you know, it's easy to hide there, and also 290 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 1: it's pretty easy to earn there. At the very least, 291 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:24,119 Speaker 1: she'd always have a full belly and you know, a 292 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:27,119 Speaker 1: good drink. Now it's at this point that we know 293 00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:31,280 Speaker 1: Mary Kelly was drinking, whether she was drinking before and 294 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:35,240 Speaker 1: that had caused issues with her previous you know, brothel 295 00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:39,399 Speaker 1: again just a possibility. But there she is, she's in 296 00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:42,880 Speaker 1: the Ratcliff Highway and she ends up renting this little 297 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:46,080 Speaker 1: brick cottage from this Dutch couple in like eighteen eighty five, 298 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:49,000 Speaker 1: I say cottage. She basically rented a room in this 299 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:53,399 Speaker 1: brick house right and the owners, the original owner, her 300 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 1: husband used to rent out to ladies of the night, 301 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:59,200 Speaker 1: you know, to use for their clientele. And when he died, 302 00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:03,720 Speaker 1: you know, the widow was like, eh, why why ruin 303 00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 1: a good thing? May as well, you know, keep earning 304 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:09,920 Speaker 1: her money. Now. Elizabeth, who she rented from, she wasn't 305 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 1: like a madam or sorry, a procuress. She wasn't any 306 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:17,720 Speaker 1: of these things. Right, She was just a woman who 307 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 1: rented some rooms, and it was whoever rented those rooms, 308 00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 1: it was up to them to find their own client 309 00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 1: tell and so that's what Mary Jane did. It was 310 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:29,959 Speaker 1: easier for her. She could, you know, be more careful 311 00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 1: about who she was dealing with, and she was safe. 312 00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:39,920 Speaker 1: Now for the most part. You know, generally Mary Jane 313 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 1: Kelly was quiet and kind, went sober, but when she 314 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:51,239 Speaker 1: had a drink in her when she had alcohol, she 315 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 1: was loud, raucous again, she held no secrets, She gambled, 316 00:20:56,280 --> 00:21:00,680 Speaker 1: she was she was not great to be around, and 317 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:03,879 Speaker 1: she caused so much trouble that she, you know, she 318 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:08,439 Speaker 1: basically gets evicted from this room and after this she 319 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 1: moves into the boarding house next door. Now it's not 320 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:17,679 Speaker 1: that Mary Jane was, you know, drinking to excess all 321 00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:21,840 Speaker 1: the time. It's just that when she did drink, she 322 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 1: is generally what I like to refer to as a 323 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 1: grumpy goose. I don't know if you've ever met a 324 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:30,000 Speaker 1: goose in real life, but they are terrifying and they 325 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 1: will come at you. They will come at you when threatened, 326 00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:36,239 Speaker 1: even when not threatened. Sometimes they just like to chase you. 327 00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:39,560 Speaker 1: But yeah, once she's got a drink in her she's 328 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 1: an angry goose. She's honking. So a year later, she 329 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:46,600 Speaker 1: meets Joseph Fleming. He is this twenty seven year old 330 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:51,159 Speaker 1: laborer and he is apparently heads over heels over Mary Jane, 331 00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:54,480 Speaker 1: and you know, she seemed to care for him. They 332 00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 1: actually stay in contact for the rest of her life, 333 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:02,760 Speaker 1: but you know, the relationship doesn't last too long. She 334 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:05,520 Speaker 1: moves in with him, you know, not that long after 335 00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 1: meeting him, So I mean it's some kind of stability, 336 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:12,720 Speaker 1: which makes sense because you know, she's dealt with enough 337 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,120 Speaker 1: and living with a man, as we know, as we've 338 00:22:15,160 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 1: said before in many of these episodes, is the most 339 00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:25,119 Speaker 1: secure option. So she even talks about how fond she 340 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:28,480 Speaker 1: is of him, and she continues this for a long time. 341 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:32,600 Speaker 1: And so while she's living with him, she tries to quit, 342 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:35,399 Speaker 1: you know, sex work. She doesn't you know, look for 343 00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:40,040 Speaker 1: John's or clients. But for whatever reason, she's forced to, 344 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 1: you go back into selling sex like she has to 345 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 1: do it partently, it's the only way of her earning. 346 00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 1: And the following year she meets Joseph Barnett, now Joseph 347 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:54,359 Speaker 1: Barnett is one of our main sources of information about 348 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:58,240 Speaker 1: Mary Jane. Now, what she tells him and what she 349 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:01,720 Speaker 1: tells other people, it's information that we have to take 350 00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 1: with a pinch of salt. So she kind of settles 351 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 1: down with Joseph number two and there together and they 352 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:10,560 Speaker 1: move here and there over the course of a few months. 353 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 1: But then they end up getting the little one room 354 00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:18,119 Speaker 1: building in Miller's Court, and that's like the spring of 355 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:22,320 Speaker 1: eighty eight, so we know from eighty seven to eighty eight, 356 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:27,720 Speaker 1: and they move in. But what's really strange about this 357 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:32,680 Speaker 1: is that the tenancy is in Mary Jane Kelly's name, 358 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:35,880 Speaker 1: not Joseph's, which, to be honest, is really fucking weird 359 00:23:35,880 --> 00:23:39,080 Speaker 1: for the era because you know, you would expect it 360 00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:41,240 Speaker 1: to be in the man's name, but it was in 361 00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:45,560 Speaker 1: Mary Jane's. We don't know why, We probably will never 362 00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 1: know why, but we do know that fact. So in 363 00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:52,479 Speaker 1: Miller's Court, Mary Jane would often talk to her neighbor. 364 00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:54,800 Speaker 1: There was a young girl, and that's where we get 365 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:58,840 Speaker 1: another huge chunk of you know, the information about her 366 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 1: is what she tells us girl, and we hear about 367 00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:05,359 Speaker 1: other girls coming up to her who are thinking about 368 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:10,320 Speaker 1: going into sex work, and she basically steers them away. 369 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 1: She warns them against it, not because it's you know, 370 00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:19,959 Speaker 1: degrading or shameful or anything like that. It's because it's exhausting. 371 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 1: Like she said herself, she was tired of it. And again, 372 00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 1: Mary Jane Kelly is still very very young at this point. 373 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 1: So life with Joseph Barnett isn't all, you know, peaches 374 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:36,200 Speaker 1: and cream, because he loses his job, so he doesn't 375 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:39,480 Speaker 1: have an income and he can't get what he needs 376 00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 1: to get, and so they are forced to rely on 377 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:48,040 Speaker 1: her going back to her career and engaging in sex work. 378 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:52,800 Speaker 1: Now can you imagine this is a woman who's already 379 00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 1: said she's tired of it, she doesn't want to do 380 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 1: it anymore, she doesn't want to have to sell her body, 381 00:25:00,280 --> 00:25:04,479 Speaker 1: and circumstances have forced this upon her again because think 382 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 1: about it, if she went from a situation where she 383 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,119 Speaker 1: was safe and secure and she was living with this 384 00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:13,879 Speaker 1: man to just having to put herself in danger again, 385 00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:16,240 Speaker 1: because she would be very well aware of the risk, 386 00:25:16,359 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 1: because she is a woman in eighteen eighties London who 387 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:27,400 Speaker 1: was also incredibly aware of the rappers layings, the Whitechapel murders, 388 00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:31,240 Speaker 1: like she would have people tell her about them, and 389 00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:38,080 Speaker 1: she was having to put herself in danger. Now, Barnett 390 00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:42,600 Speaker 1: also wasn't happy because Mary Jane was letting women's state 391 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:46,120 Speaker 1: in Miller's court. So instead of having them be out 392 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:49,119 Speaker 1: of the streets at night, she was letting people stay. Now, 393 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:53,320 Speaker 1: some people say that they were, but yeah, we don't 394 00:25:53,320 --> 00:25:56,359 Speaker 1: have any definitive information on that. All we know is 395 00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:59,159 Speaker 1: that she let women sleep in her house instead of 396 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:02,600 Speaker 1: having to be on this stas because she was afraid 397 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:06,480 Speaker 1: for them. So she was putting all this into play. 398 00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:10,760 Speaker 1: And then Barnett, he just can't be dealing with it. 399 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:14,440 Speaker 1: There's a fight. They were always having fights, especially when 400 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:19,000 Speaker 1: they drank and a window gets smashed. And the thing 401 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:21,199 Speaker 1: with this window is it gets like stuffed with like 402 00:26:21,240 --> 00:26:23,840 Speaker 1: a rag or a cloth. It's just to keep the 403 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:26,719 Speaker 1: chill out because at this point it's not exactly the 404 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:30,320 Speaker 1: warmest time of year. But by offering her home to 405 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:34,600 Speaker 1: these women, she could very well have saved lives, not 406 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:38,199 Speaker 1: just from you know, the Whitechapel killer, but from the 407 00:26:38,280 --> 00:26:42,280 Speaker 1: other dangers out on the streets. Yeah, Joseph wasn't super 408 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:45,240 Speaker 1: happy about this. But he couldn't really say anything because 409 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 1: it was Mary jen who had the roof over his head. 410 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:51,800 Speaker 1: She was paying for everything. It was in her name. 411 00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 1: But eventually it's too much for him and he leaves. 412 00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:59,040 Speaker 1: But Joseph does pop back on November eighth, eighteen eighty eight, 413 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:02,560 Speaker 1: and she's chatting to her Palissay. She'd been to the pub, 414 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:06,600 Speaker 1: but she wasn't drunk, she wasn't like heavily and talk scated. 415 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:10,919 Speaker 1: She seemed very normal. And he says he came to 416 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,959 Speaker 1: tell her that he had nothing to offer her. He had, 417 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:17,960 Speaker 1: you know, no finances, no job, no nothing. And they 418 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:20,240 Speaker 1: talk for an hour and he leaves. And the next 419 00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 1: time anyone sees Mary Jane, it's her neighbor, Mary Anne, 420 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 1: and she sees her about quarter to midnight, eleven forty five, 421 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 1: and she's going into her little apartment with a man 422 00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:35,080 Speaker 1: and she tells Mary Anne she's going to be singing, 423 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:39,400 Speaker 1: and she does sing and here singing for a bit. 424 00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:41,720 Speaker 1: Now about one o'clock in the morning, one of the 425 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:44,480 Speaker 1: neighbors is complaining about the fact that she's still singing, 426 00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 1: and she's she's at it for like an hour and 427 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:51,919 Speaker 1: a bit, and then about two am, the dude is gone, rins, lather, repeat, 428 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:57,200 Speaker 1: off he goes, and Mary Jane is out two o'clock 429 00:27:57,240 --> 00:28:00,359 Speaker 1: in the morning. She's seen by a few people and 430 00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:07,119 Speaker 1: she then is maybe seen being spoken to by another man. 431 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 1: At some point that evening, Mary Jane Kelly makes her 432 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:14,320 Speaker 1: way home. She goes into mother's court, She folds her 433 00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:18,359 Speaker 1: clothes neatly, and she goes to bed fully in the 434 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:22,920 Speaker 1: belief that she's safe and sound because she's only worried 435 00:28:23,000 --> 00:28:27,879 Speaker 1: about the Whitechapel killer and he killed people on the streets, 436 00:28:27,920 --> 00:28:32,040 Speaker 1: so she had every reason to think she was going 437 00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:37,640 Speaker 1: to wake up the next morning, but she didn't. And 438 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:41,440 Speaker 1: on November ninth, about eleven o'clock in the morning, the 439 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:44,920 Speaker 1: landlord sends one of his goons round to get the 440 00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:48,440 Speaker 1: late rent from Mary Jane. But when Thomas gets there 441 00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:50,520 Speaker 1: and knocks on the door and gets no response, he 442 00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:53,440 Speaker 1: decides to take a look in the window, and that's 443 00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 1: when he sees the horrific mulation of Mary Jane. When 444 00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:01,719 Speaker 1: it came time to bury Mary Jane Kelly, because it 445 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:05,400 Speaker 1: was assumed she was irish, there was a Catholic ceremony, 446 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:11,080 Speaker 1: and like Catherine Arrow's before her, even though she had 447 00:29:11,120 --> 00:29:14,400 Speaker 1: no family to speak of or that we know of, 448 00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:19,080 Speaker 1: like people lined the street. It was a massive, massive deal. 449 00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:22,720 Speaker 1: And we talk about the less dead a lot. But 450 00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:28,479 Speaker 1: Mary Jane Kelly was a very a very interesting figure 451 00:29:28,600 --> 00:29:33,479 Speaker 1: for this because she was kind of venerated. You know, 452 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:38,200 Speaker 1: people had this strange obsession with her, possibly because of 453 00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:40,680 Speaker 1: how little we know about her, because so much of 454 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:43,040 Speaker 1: her is a mystery, and that's where all these conspiracy 455 00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:48,000 Speaker 1: theories come from. But because she was young and supposedly beautiful, 456 00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:51,840 Speaker 1: and because she had been mutilated in such a horrific manner, 457 00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:58,680 Speaker 1: and because she was killed indoors, she becomes this weird 458 00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:05,680 Speaker 1: sim this icon of this fallen woman, and it could 459 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:09,720 Speaker 1: have instigated the needs for change and a lot. And 460 00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:12,600 Speaker 1: Mary Jane Kelly is laid to rest under a name 461 00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:16,040 Speaker 1: she preferred to use, Marie Janette. So I'm going to 462 00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 1: go into a little bit more detail now with one 463 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 1: of my favorite history talk people, my special guest for 464 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:30,080 Speaker 1: this week's episode. And now we have the host of 465 00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:35,040 Speaker 1: the God's Favorites podcast and one of my first history 466 00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:38,400 Speaker 1: talk friends, actually, Melissa Hi. 467 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:41,000 Speaker 3: I'm glad to be here because we're going to talk 468 00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:43,280 Speaker 3: some true crime. So I didn't get my true crime 469 00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:46,320 Speaker 3: fixed in now. So we started off on TikTok as 470 00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:48,640 Speaker 3: friends just because I was like, oh, she's got a 471 00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:51,040 Speaker 3: history podcast and I have one, and we bonded over 472 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:54,800 Speaker 3: our love of yeah, a lot of things, but specifically 473 00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:59,280 Speaker 3: Jack the Ripper, and then we also have a Titanic thing. 474 00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:02,640 Speaker 3: It's at this point it's my second profession is titan 475 00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 3: I do nothing but Titanic content for the entire month 476 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 3: of April, so that's where my brain is. So it's 477 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:09,160 Speaker 3: gonna be nice to have a little bit of a 478 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:11,960 Speaker 3: Jack the Ripper interlude here. 479 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:16,960 Speaker 1: We have very particular opinions about Mary Kelly. 480 00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 3: Indeed, so we both know that Mary Jane Kelly is 481 00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:23,560 Speaker 3: considered to be one of them, what they call the 482 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,640 Speaker 3: canonical five. I love the term Ripperologists. It's it's kind 483 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:29,440 Speaker 3: of funny to me ripproology. They consider those five victims, 484 00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:32,520 Speaker 3: although I would say they're more than likely more than five. 485 00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:36,120 Speaker 3: But you and I both think that Mary Jane Kelly 486 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:41,959 Speaker 3: is likely not part of that victimology, which is weird 487 00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 3: I think for some people because they always consider her 488 00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 3: like the final death. 489 00:31:45,880 --> 00:31:49,959 Speaker 1: I feel like either the Repper was somehow stopped before 490 00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:56,600 Speaker 1: Mary Jane Kelly or just disappeared because it's not the 491 00:31:56,760 --> 00:32:01,520 Speaker 1: same Kellor. It's not I don't care who. It doesn't 492 00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:04,920 Speaker 1: add up, none of it makes sense. Yeah, I think 493 00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:05,520 Speaker 1: like when we. 494 00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 3: Both were talking about this previously, we both have this. 495 00:32:08,320 --> 00:32:11,320 Speaker 3: It's clearly instant because you know, you can't prove anything 496 00:32:11,360 --> 00:32:15,000 Speaker 3: with the River crimes, but it doesn't feel like the 497 00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:19,280 Speaker 3: same guy. It just doesn't. Because when you look at 498 00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:21,640 Speaker 3: the crime scene photos, and please, if you're going to 499 00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:24,080 Speaker 3: google that, don't do it at work and just be 500 00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:29,160 Speaker 3: prepared because Mary Jane Kelly's photos are terrifying. That whole 501 00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:31,600 Speaker 3: crime scene is terrified. But when you really think about 502 00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:33,840 Speaker 3: the condition of the bodies of the other victims that 503 00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:38,400 Speaker 3: granted that was also escalating, but Mary Jane Kelly's death 504 00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:43,640 Speaker 3: was so brutal and so violent that it just doesn't 505 00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:47,800 Speaker 3: match with what I think the ripper was after which 506 00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:50,520 Speaker 3: there's also like the process killer who enjoys the process, 507 00:32:50,520 --> 00:32:52,280 Speaker 3: but this is just a person. He was trying to, 508 00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:55,440 Speaker 3: you know, cut open and get organs out, and that 509 00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:57,840 Speaker 3: was more of the emo with the other victims, whereas 510 00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:02,480 Speaker 3: Mary Jane was just annihilated. 511 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:05,240 Speaker 1: And there's so much rage when you look at the others, 512 00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:10,280 Speaker 1: they're so clean, they are displayed like they're out in 513 00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:13,600 Speaker 1: the open. Every single one you know, was out there. 514 00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 1: They wanted to be seen. And this is head and 515 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:17,080 Speaker 1: away and a house. 516 00:33:17,560 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's that's what always got me too, because he 517 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:22,840 Speaker 3: was so clearly proud of what he was doing, even 518 00:33:22,840 --> 00:33:24,680 Speaker 3: when he got interrupted. And that's what we think happened 519 00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:27,160 Speaker 3: with the double event, is that potentially the first killing 520 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 3: was interrupted or he ran after you know, the fourth victim, 521 00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:34,440 Speaker 3: and he like an art project to him more so 522 00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:36,360 Speaker 3: than he I don't think he got thrills out of 523 00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:40,800 Speaker 3: the actual killing. It was the results. Mary Jane Kelly 524 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:46,400 Speaker 3: was annihilated and mutilated, and her face was just gone 525 00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:50,120 Speaker 3: like it was the most violent crime ever. The arguments 526 00:33:50,160 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 3: I've heard for her being canonical five is that, well, 527 00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:54,760 Speaker 3: he just had more time. But the thing is they 528 00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 3: were all public death, not private. This was hidden away. 529 00:33:58,920 --> 00:34:02,240 Speaker 3: And then Mary, we don't know that much about Mary's 530 00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:06,040 Speaker 3: early life or things about her. Doesn't make any sense 531 00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:09,040 Speaker 3: that this is the same person. I just don't. I've 532 00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:09,759 Speaker 3: never thought that. 533 00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:13,319 Speaker 1: And what I found really I'm skipping forward a little bit. 534 00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:17,840 Speaker 1: But there's a murder in New York of Carrie Brown, 535 00:34:18,239 --> 00:34:21,560 Speaker 1: and it happens in a hotel, and it's very similar 536 00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:24,000 Speaker 1: to the murder of Mary Jane Kelly in a room, 537 00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:28,560 Speaker 1: very violent, very aggressive. It is of a sex worker. 538 00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:31,880 Speaker 1: You know, it's a very particular type of mo whereas 539 00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:35,760 Speaker 1: every single one of these ripper slayings, anyone that's official 540 00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:41,920 Speaker 1: air quotes, there's just a careful, like particularness about it. 541 00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:45,920 Speaker 1: There's something just very clean everything about it is putting 542 00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:47,840 Speaker 1: it on display. When they did it, they did it 543 00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:49,759 Speaker 1: at night. They did it at a time where there 544 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:53,239 Speaker 1: wasn't really many people about, you know, walking the streets 545 00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:56,840 Speaker 1: of Spittlefields or White Chapel, not at that time in 546 00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:59,160 Speaker 1: the morning when they're when these events would have happened, 547 00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:02,160 Speaker 1: which I mean half one and three o'clock in the morning, 548 00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:05,359 Speaker 1: just roughly the sort of time frame when you look 549 00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:08,360 Speaker 1: at it, nobody's around. You're lucky if the dock workers 550 00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:10,720 Speaker 1: are even about. It's not as if he was gonna 551 00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:13,319 Speaker 1: get disturbed. It's not as if he was looking for 552 00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:16,080 Speaker 1: somewhere to go away and do it. He always just 553 00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 1: kind of found the women in these It always seems 554 00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:23,879 Speaker 1: to be in nooks and crannies, and then very much 555 00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:28,040 Speaker 1: puts them on display. Look at what I did, See 556 00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:31,720 Speaker 1: what I have done. He would put their personal effects 557 00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:34,799 Speaker 1: beside the body. He would lift the skirt up so 558 00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:39,280 Speaker 1: everyone could see what a good job he'd done. Like he's, 559 00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 1: like you said, he's proud of this. Why would he 560 00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:44,839 Speaker 1: then go and hide away and close the door. 561 00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:48,680 Speaker 3: And those other killings were silent, like nobody really heard 562 00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:52,160 Speaker 3: anything because I'm thinking, you know, possible strangulation, something along 563 00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:55,480 Speaker 3: those lines. But with Mary Kelly, we have this like 564 00:35:55,719 --> 00:35:58,560 Speaker 3: interesting timeline where she's seen walking off with somebody and 565 00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:00,920 Speaker 3: we know that her apartment there a coat hanging over 566 00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:04,480 Speaker 3: a broken window, probably providing an entry way, and people 567 00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:08,840 Speaker 3: heard her screaming, but they ignored it because they thought, 568 00:36:08,880 --> 00:36:11,400 Speaker 3: you know, it's why chaplton in the mornings. They just didn't, 569 00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:15,920 Speaker 3: you know, quiet ignoring it whatever that is not somebody 570 00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:20,919 Speaker 3: behaving quietly. Like bludgeoning a woman to death where she's 571 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:24,440 Speaker 3: screaming is not the same as strangling somebody and pulling 572 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:26,919 Speaker 3: out their reproductive organs. It's just not the same thing. 573 00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:29,520 Speaker 3: So I'm with you on the IMO just does not 574 00:36:30,560 --> 00:36:34,320 Speaker 3: match those other four killings. And I've always been bothered 575 00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:35,520 Speaker 3: by this, and I don't. 576 00:36:35,280 --> 00:36:39,319 Speaker 1: Know why it's the rage, it's it's the fact that 577 00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:42,520 Speaker 1: there's clearly anger behind it. And that's what always came 578 00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:46,120 Speaker 1: to bullered me about this specifically, is there's definitely it 579 00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:49,120 Speaker 1: feels more personal generally when there's that amount of violent 580 00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:52,759 Speaker 1: rage with something like this, it is a very personal 581 00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:56,920 Speaker 1: personal attack to stab that many tames, to bludgeon that 582 00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:01,320 Speaker 1: many tames like, and the minor happened, you knew that person, 583 00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:04,359 Speaker 1: you wanted to heart them specifically to me, that that's 584 00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:05,160 Speaker 1: what it feels like. 585 00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:07,319 Speaker 3: It kind of feels like that to me too. And 586 00:37:07,520 --> 00:37:10,040 Speaker 3: we do know that like Mary Kelly had had a 587 00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:13,120 Speaker 3: person she was involved with I won't say like a boyfriend, husband, 588 00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:16,560 Speaker 3: but they lived together, they had relationships, and she had 589 00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:19,160 Speaker 3: been seen with him the night before and they were 590 00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:22,120 Speaker 3: always fighting and gotten kicked out for a flat that 591 00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:25,880 Speaker 3: they were sharing together for like domestic violence and drinking. 592 00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:31,560 Speaker 3: So he sees her the night before she dies, and 593 00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:33,719 Speaker 3: I'm always like, well, that feels kind of shady, but 594 00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:36,400 Speaker 3: you know, and then also just the fact that she 595 00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:39,560 Speaker 3: was also seen with a man who was finally dressed. 596 00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:43,120 Speaker 3: There are so many contradictory reports about what Mary Jane 597 00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:46,759 Speaker 3: Kelly was doing at night, and it just doesn't make 598 00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:50,120 Speaker 3: any sense. And I know that people think that this 599 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 3: is just an escalation of behavior, but it's not escalation. 600 00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:59,040 Speaker 3: If the mode of killing completely changes, it's just different. 601 00:37:59,719 --> 00:38:03,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not a step up, it's a complete shark 602 00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:07,440 Speaker 1: jump escalating. You you know, it's the same but more 603 00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:08,640 Speaker 1: it's like you see that with. 604 00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:09,400 Speaker 3: The rest of the killings. 605 00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:13,080 Speaker 1: It starts off with you know, sliced open bets are 606 00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:17,360 Speaker 1: pulled out, and then it's sliced open, stubbed. More parts 607 00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:21,000 Speaker 1: are pulled out, more personal effects are on display. Like 608 00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:24,200 Speaker 1: it gets bigger and more grundiouse like every single time, 609 00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:29,120 Speaker 1: but there's again, it's display, it's his art. Here's the 610 00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:32,319 Speaker 1: extra I've done, learning and getting a little bit more 611 00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:36,920 Speaker 1: confident every single time. Again, it's meticulous. So when it 612 00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:39,640 Speaker 1: comes to Mary Jane Kelly, it just feels like such 613 00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:46,120 Speaker 1: a it just feels off, which is very technicals. 614 00:38:46,160 --> 00:38:48,760 Speaker 3: So say, there's no the forensic evidence from this case 615 00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:51,439 Speaker 3: has you know, very much long been destroyed and it's 616 00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:54,279 Speaker 3: impossible to track it down unless there's a confessional letter 617 00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:57,240 Speaker 3: that comes out at some point. But I think about 618 00:38:57,280 --> 00:39:00,359 Speaker 3: like the witnesses that were interviewed about her, how they 619 00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:02,719 Speaker 3: talked about she was with the man and then one guy. 620 00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:05,640 Speaker 3: It was completely pitch black. But this man they were 621 00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:09,160 Speaker 3: talking to gives this. He calls him Jewish in appearance, 622 00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:11,640 Speaker 3: which we'd although the anti Semitism was a big problem 623 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:14,200 Speaker 3: in White Champel at this time, so that makes us. 624 00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:17,800 Speaker 3: But he also describes very very strange, very particular things 625 00:39:17,800 --> 00:39:19,480 Speaker 3: that it would have been, including like the like what 626 00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:21,920 Speaker 3: was it the color of his eyes or colored with eyelashes, 627 00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:25,240 Speaker 3: and it was dark, it was pitch black. 628 00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:29,560 Speaker 1: That is a small gay London like backstreet. It's a 629 00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:31,799 Speaker 1: dodgy old work code and you're not going to see 630 00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:32,840 Speaker 1: those details. 631 00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:35,959 Speaker 3: So that always roused my like, uh huh, okay, where 632 00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:38,200 Speaker 3: were you at when this happened, because he's one of 633 00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:40,160 Speaker 3: the last people who saw her alive, and I'm like, 634 00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:43,520 Speaker 3: anybody look at this. I think his name was Hutchinson. 635 00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:47,080 Speaker 3: He was like giving this very detailed description with you know, 636 00:39:47,160 --> 00:39:49,840 Speaker 3: these very small gas lights, how are you going to 637 00:39:49,920 --> 00:39:53,160 Speaker 3: see from about forty five feet away? Not to mention 638 00:39:53,239 --> 00:39:55,439 Speaker 3: he was like waiting outside of a place for her 639 00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:58,640 Speaker 3: for forty five minutes, which is also creepy and he's 640 00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:00,920 Speaker 3: describing down to the tea with this person was worried one. 641 00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:03,160 Speaker 3: Why were you out there waiting on her too? It's 642 00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:05,480 Speaker 3: it's too specific, you know, overkill on that one. 643 00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:09,120 Speaker 1: There's just all of these extra details that nobody asked for. 644 00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:12,279 Speaker 1: It's like you know when someone lies and they just 645 00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:14,719 Speaker 1: I know it's in your a divergent person, I behob 646 00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:17,680 Speaker 1: of giving too many details, but that's a that much 647 00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:21,400 Speaker 1: even for someone like me on the color of his eyelashes. 648 00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:24,600 Speaker 3: And leaning into because we all know the graffiti whose 649 00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:27,560 Speaker 3: body was that near? One of the victims said, the 650 00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:29,720 Speaker 3: Jewish are people the men who will not be blamed 651 00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:32,520 Speaker 3: for nothing. And it's not clear if it was you know, 652 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:35,000 Speaker 3: just already there. It's misspelled as. 653 00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:38,080 Speaker 1: Well, which is like somehow worse, Like the spelling is wrong. 654 00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:40,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's I think it's supposed to be Jews, but 655 00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:45,200 Speaker 3: it's jay. I think it's j Yes Jesus.

He had to identify her body, but he 784 00:46:46,239 --> 00:46:49,799 Speaker 3: could only do it by the eyes and the year. 785 00:46:50,080 --> 00:46:51,920 Speaker 3: That's all he could do is say, yeah, that's her. 786 00:46:52,280 --> 00:46:55,680 Speaker 1: The color of her dyed hair Hannah or something. 787 00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:58,040 Speaker 3: So like red hair. I think I think it's like she. 788 00:46:58,239 --> 00:47:00,200 Speaker 1: I think there was something about her putting up there 789 00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:01,879 Speaker 1: was like a red hue to it so she could 790 00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:04,600 Speaker 1: like a whoosh, so just to could make her seem more. 791 00:47:04,680 --> 00:47:06,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, and he had to, like that was the only 792 00:47:07,320 --> 00:47:11,520 Speaker 3: thing he was able to identify her ass, because you can't. 793 00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:15,399 Speaker 3: The mutilation there was the most and most people are 794 00:47:15,560 --> 00:47:19,040 Speaker 3: trying to say that's because he had the time. He 795 00:47:19,120 --> 00:47:21,319 Speaker 3: had time. He's in a room where nobody is going 796 00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:21,879 Speaker 3: to walk in. 797 00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:25,600 Speaker 1: And why wouldn't mutilation be more careful? Yeah, like, if 798 00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:28,040 Speaker 1: he had the tame, why would he not a very 799 00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:33,560 Speaker 1: carefully dissected harm entire body and a very careful fashion. 800 00:47:34,480 --> 00:47:36,560 Speaker 1: Why didn't he take his tame if he had the tame? 801 00:47:37,320 --> 00:47:40,600 Speaker 1: Why this is clearly rushed because there's no way you 802 00:47:40,600 --> 00:47:43,520 Speaker 1: stab somebody slowly like that, not with the monitor in 803 00:47:43,520 --> 00:47:46,800 Speaker 1: which her face her face is gone. 804 00:47:47,680 --> 00:47:48,239 Speaker 3: It's just gone. 805 00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:50,400 Speaker 1: There's no joy, it's just sort of hanging. 806 00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:53,759 Speaker 3: It's it's it's one of the worst things I have 807 00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:56,879 Speaker 3: ever seen. Now, of course he is doing like all 808 00:47:56,880 --> 00:47:58,800 Speaker 3: the things to the you know, or like stabbing and 809 00:47:59,080 --> 00:48:02,160 Speaker 3: the you know, heading her intestines, but it's not the 810 00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:06,640 Speaker 3: surgical precision we were getting accustomed to in these old killings. 811 00:48:06,680 --> 00:48:09,399 Speaker 3: And if you had the time and that is your 812 00:48:09,560 --> 00:48:12,919 Speaker 3: mo why isn't he just performing a surgery? Why isn't 813 00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:16,200 Speaker 3: he just doing it with that time he has instead 814 00:48:16,239 --> 00:48:19,400 Speaker 3: of unless she did something to make him angry or something. 815 00:48:19,440 --> 00:48:22,880 Speaker 3: But it's just very, very unlike what we saw. So 816 00:48:22,960 --> 00:48:25,880 Speaker 3: I have always had this little gut instinct, which I 817 00:48:25,920 --> 00:48:28,759 Speaker 3: guess that's a terrible phrasing right now, gut instinct, But 818 00:48:28,840 --> 00:48:32,080 Speaker 3: it's instinct it was somebody else that it. 819 00:48:32,000 --> 00:48:35,560 Speaker 1: Was not, and it's personal. It's personal. Every single other 820 00:48:35,600 --> 00:48:39,239 Speaker 1: one of the killings, they were just convenient more than 821 00:48:39,239 --> 00:48:42,719 Speaker 1: anything else, and this just feels like a very very 822 00:48:42,719 --> 00:48:45,960 Speaker 1: personal killing. I always think whoever came and came when 823 00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:49,000 Speaker 1: she was asleep, because her clothes are neatly folded like 824 00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:50,520 Speaker 1: on her we thing, or. 825 00:48:50,520 --> 00:48:52,759 Speaker 3: A medical examiner or somebody who was like, this is 826 00:48:52,800 --> 00:48:55,160 Speaker 3: not performed by somebody who had training. 827 00:48:55,320 --> 00:48:57,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is not This is not a by somebody 828 00:48:57,920 --> 00:48:58,919 Speaker 1: who knows what they're doing. 829 00:48:59,400 --> 00:48:59,560 Speaker 3: Right. 830 00:48:59,760 --> 00:49:02,880 Speaker 1: Here's like a butcher would have done a better job exactly. 831 00:49:03,320 --> 00:49:05,759 Speaker 3: And he's like, yeah, it's not the same as the 832 00:49:05,800 --> 00:49:08,520 Speaker 3: other cases where it was very surgical and anatomical. This 833 00:49:08,719 --> 00:49:13,520 Speaker 3: was just hate. This was pure hate, And I don't 834 00:49:13,600 --> 00:49:17,120 Speaker 3: know how somebody would escalate that far out of their 835 00:49:17,160 --> 00:49:19,000 Speaker 3: normal mo of killing somebody. 836 00:49:19,320 --> 00:49:21,400 Speaker 1: Again, to me, it's very similar to the murder of 837 00:49:21,480 --> 00:49:25,120 Speaker 1: Carrie Brown. If you look it up it's just she's 838 00:49:25,120 --> 00:49:27,919 Speaker 1: in this hotel and she's just completely I mean it's 839 00:49:28,000 --> 00:49:32,200 Speaker 1: not as aggressive as Mary Jane's was, but I still 840 00:49:32,239 --> 00:49:34,000 Speaker 1: have I always have the feeling that Mary Jane. This 841 00:49:34,080 --> 00:49:37,680 Speaker 1: is just my personal opinion that someone came in most 842 00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:39,759 Speaker 1: she was sleeping and they were getting ready to like 843 00:49:39,800 --> 00:49:42,960 Speaker 1: stop her anyway, but she wakes up, like that's my 844 00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:44,840 Speaker 1: kind of theory, and there's a little bit of a 845 00:49:45,239 --> 00:49:47,560 Speaker 1: and this is what causes that little bit of a rage. 846 00:49:47,560 --> 00:49:49,400 Speaker 1: I see a little bit of a rage, that massive rage. 847 00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:52,879 Speaker 1: She wakes up and this person's like, hell no, stop 848 00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:55,719 Speaker 1: stop stop, stopped up, like no, I mean, these are 849 00:49:55,760 --> 00:49:59,400 Speaker 1: hardy Victorian women, like at least someone who is known 850 00:49:59,560 --> 00:50:03,440 Speaker 1: for and if she had defensive winds, you wouldn't know. 851 00:50:03,520 --> 00:50:07,960 Speaker 1: By the time she was just smushed like she's practically 852 00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:08,719 Speaker 1: liquefied in. 853 00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:11,920 Speaker 3: Places, you know. So it never made sense to me, 854 00:50:11,960 --> 00:50:14,719 Speaker 3: I know, and every time I never one. I will 855 00:50:14,719 --> 00:50:16,480 Speaker 3: never think Jack the Ripper was a woman. I know, 856 00:50:16,520 --> 00:50:19,040 Speaker 3: that's the theory. I will never the strength to battle, 857 00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:21,200 Speaker 3: but these because these women could have fought back against 858 00:50:21,239 --> 00:50:23,879 Speaker 3: a woman pretty easily. They're all very, like you said, 859 00:50:23,880 --> 00:50:26,440 Speaker 3: hardy women. And she had held her own in fights 860 00:50:26,520 --> 00:50:29,760 Speaker 3: with Barnett before she had made many and many a quarrel. 861 00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:32,600 Speaker 3: I'm with you. I think she was surprised. I think 862 00:50:32,760 --> 00:50:35,000 Speaker 3: you know, it was she woke up maybe or. 863 00:50:35,680 --> 00:50:37,560 Speaker 1: Maybe she didn't wake up and the person was just 864 00:50:37,760 --> 00:50:41,440 Speaker 1: full of rage anyway, but it was just such a 865 00:50:41,520 --> 00:50:45,160 Speaker 1: particular It's just there's so much anger behind it. Bothers 866 00:50:45,200 --> 00:50:45,759 Speaker 1: me so much. 867 00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:48,680 Speaker 3: Bother me too, And I love that we bonded over this, 868 00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:52,080 Speaker 3: because Yeah, there's the most frustrating thing about the Jack 869 00:50:52,080 --> 00:50:54,640 Speaker 3: the Ripper case is that there is no way to know. 870 00:50:54,760 --> 00:50:58,040 Speaker 3: Now too much time has passed, it will never be solved. 871 00:50:58,080 --> 00:51:00,560 Speaker 3: I mean, I think they tried to say it was someone. 872 00:51:00,920 --> 00:51:03,319 Speaker 1: Oh they try and do it every four years, so like, 873 00:51:03,920 --> 00:51:07,359 Speaker 1: oh it's Humphrey. Oh it was secret. Oh god, if 874 00:51:07,400 --> 00:51:09,360 Speaker 1: I have to hear another thing about secret to be 875 00:51:09,400 --> 00:51:10,080 Speaker 1: squear to god. 876 00:51:10,360 --> 00:51:13,360 Speaker 3: I kind of enjoyed the secret stuff. I don't think no. 877 00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:15,560 Speaker 1: I think it's because I was like, oh, this is interesting, 878 00:51:15,600 --> 00:51:17,040 Speaker 1: and then it was like this is the reason why, 879 00:51:17,040 --> 00:51:19,120 Speaker 1: and I went, oh, this makes sense from like a 880 00:51:19,160 --> 00:51:22,560 Speaker 1: criminological perspective, and I'm like this is great. But then 881 00:51:22,680 --> 00:51:25,080 Speaker 1: it became like this is definitely the thing, and then 882 00:51:25,120 --> 00:51:27,640 Speaker 1: this is because of this scarf, and then the DNA 883 00:51:27,719 --> 00:51:29,400 Speaker 1: is rare, except it wasn't rare. 884 00:51:29,239 --> 00:51:32,279 Speaker 3: And it's just not real, and it's also degraded and 885 00:51:32,360 --> 00:51:35,640 Speaker 3: Sickret just strikes me as like before he's a true 886 00:51:35,680 --> 00:51:38,759 Speaker 3: crime fan, before a true crime podcast existed, and he's 887 00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:41,319 Speaker 3: just like getting an outlet with his art. So I 888 00:51:41,320 --> 00:51:43,520 Speaker 3: don't know, And that is the most frustrating thing that 889 00:51:43,560 --> 00:51:45,879 Speaker 3: anybody who says they solved it is full of shit 890 00:51:46,160 --> 00:51:48,120 Speaker 3: because we will never know who did it. 891 00:51:48,239 --> 00:51:51,000 Speaker 1: Nobody has solved anything. We're never going to solve it, 892 00:51:51,040 --> 00:51:53,400 Speaker 1: And like part of me just feels like like I 893 00:51:53,440 --> 00:51:55,239 Speaker 1: go through this whole period of where I go, I 894 00:51:55,239 --> 00:51:56,840 Speaker 1: don't I don't give a I don't give a fuck. 895 00:51:57,280 --> 00:51:59,400 Speaker 1: I don't I don't care who he is at this point, 896 00:51:59,640 --> 00:52:02,080 Speaker 1: I don't care, Like I just get these stages where 897 00:52:02,080 --> 00:52:02,440 Speaker 1: I'm just like. 898 00:52:03,239 --> 00:52:05,160 Speaker 3: That's why when I did the series, I did a 899 00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:07,160 Speaker 3: video on each woman, because I'm like, look, we can 900 00:52:07,200 --> 00:52:09,400 Speaker 3: talk about the suspects, but the list of suspects is 901 00:52:09,520 --> 00:52:14,520 Speaker 3: exponentially long, and you know, it's a billion conspiracy theories 902 00:52:14,600 --> 00:52:16,360 Speaker 3: out there on who it was, but the fact is 903 00:52:16,400 --> 00:52:18,400 Speaker 3: that whoever it was if it was more than one 904 00:52:18,400 --> 00:52:23,200 Speaker 3: person who it was five women just out and killed. 905 00:52:23,239 --> 00:52:27,279 Speaker 3: And that's that's the story, not mysterious men with the. 906 00:52:27,239 --> 00:52:30,760 Speaker 1: Hate and it's like, why why does this one person 907 00:52:31,600 --> 00:52:34,839 Speaker 1: modern more than the five lives or more he snuffed out. 908 00:52:35,320 --> 00:52:38,200 Speaker 3: That's why that book, the book five is the five. Yeah, 909 00:52:38,239 --> 00:52:40,640 Speaker 3: because you're you're talking about their lives and who they were. 910 00:52:41,080 --> 00:52:43,200 Speaker 3: Mary Kelly had this like fascinating background. I mean, we 911 00:52:43,200 --> 00:52:46,480 Speaker 3: don't know everything about these women just because of record 912 00:52:46,600 --> 00:52:48,799 Speaker 3: keeping and you know, their personal life, and a lot 913 00:52:48,840 --> 00:52:50,799 Speaker 3: of it is anecdotal, so we can't really verify how 914 00:52:50,840 --> 00:52:53,600 Speaker 3: much of it is true. But she's one who actually 915 00:52:53,600 --> 00:52:56,799 Speaker 3: she was like traveling around Europe. She she when she 916 00:52:56,840 --> 00:52:58,279 Speaker 3: worked as a sex work, she was actually like at 917 00:52:58,280 --> 00:52:59,800 Speaker 3: one point, I'm very very high. 918 00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:00,520 Speaker 4: Yeah. 919 00:53:00,600 --> 00:53:02,440 Speaker 1: It was very strange because she went from like this 920 00:53:02,640 --> 00:53:06,320 Speaker 1: very high area and then ended up in the spectal fields. 921 00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:09,000 Speaker 3: Alcoholism and the addiction that was there also played a 922 00:53:09,040 --> 00:53:10,880 Speaker 3: huge part of it. And that's that whole concept of 923 00:53:10,920 --> 00:53:12,960 Speaker 3: the less dead as they call it, which is the 924 00:53:14,120 --> 00:53:17,600 Speaker 3: people who are going to not be missed as much. 925 00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:19,840 Speaker 3: A's why we see that today now with oh. 926 00:53:19,719 --> 00:53:22,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, we see it everywhere I mean that were I 927 00:53:22,560 --> 00:53:24,120 Speaker 1: don't know if you ever listened to the podcast The 928 00:53:24,160 --> 00:53:24,600 Speaker 1: fall Ling. 929 00:53:25,600 --> 00:53:27,399 Speaker 3: I have heard it's good. I haven't listened to it, though. 930 00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:29,080 Speaker 1: It is very good, and it's all to do with 931 00:53:29,160 --> 00:53:31,200 Speaker 1: all of these people that have just basically fallen to 932 00:53:31,280 --> 00:53:34,120 Speaker 1: the cracks in this in this area, and it's just 933 00:53:34,160 --> 00:53:37,960 Speaker 1: one of those things. Always I'm more interested in those stories. 934 00:53:38,400 --> 00:53:40,719 Speaker 3: And you see that with the like missing murdered Indigenous 935 00:53:40,760 --> 00:53:43,760 Speaker 3: women and two people in the United States and in Canada, 936 00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:46,680 Speaker 3: with the that that's those cases are not getting investigated 937 00:53:46,680 --> 00:53:48,880 Speaker 3: the way they should. So that is a lot of 938 00:53:48,920 --> 00:53:50,920 Speaker 3: what you see here with Mary Jane Kelly and these 939 00:53:50,920 --> 00:53:55,600 Speaker 3: other Chapman all these women because they they were considered 940 00:53:55,719 --> 00:53:58,799 Speaker 3: less dead because of what they did for a living 941 00:53:58,880 --> 00:54:01,480 Speaker 3: or they're sitch. I know, I know there's some questioning 942 00:54:01,560 --> 00:54:03,200 Speaker 3: of whether or not they were all sex workers or 943 00:54:03,200 --> 00:54:05,319 Speaker 3: if it was just like a casual sex worker thing 944 00:54:05,600 --> 00:54:08,800 Speaker 3: treating favors, and it shouldn't matter. It's just that somebody 945 00:54:08,880 --> 00:54:10,960 Speaker 3: was going around and praying on women that they thought 946 00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:12,719 Speaker 3: and they got away with it. And that's the most 947 00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:15,960 Speaker 3: creating part of the whole thing. And while I I 948 00:54:16,480 --> 00:54:19,440 Speaker 3: love listening to theories I think that that is the focus, 949 00:54:19,600 --> 00:54:23,480 Speaker 3: is that somebody just hated women, and that should be 950 00:54:23,480 --> 00:54:24,960 Speaker 3: the focus and we should be honoring them. But that 951 00:54:25,040 --> 00:54:31,040 Speaker 3: being said, some of the conspiracy theories are insane. Was 952 00:54:31,040 --> 00:54:35,440 Speaker 3: like Queen Victoria did it like his grandson. Oh, but 953 00:54:35,480 --> 00:54:35,719 Speaker 3: that was. 954 00:54:35,960 --> 00:54:37,800 Speaker 1: The worst one was that people that Queen Victoria actually 955 00:54:37,840 --> 00:54:45,040 Speaker 1: did it hersef. I was like, whattori hard? Really? You 956 00:54:45,080 --> 00:54:47,520 Speaker 1: think somebody wouldn't have noticed horror walking down the street? 957 00:54:47,560 --> 00:54:47,759 Speaker 5: Really? 958 00:54:47,800 --> 00:54:50,680 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, your majesty. Let me just now. I did 959 00:54:50,760 --> 00:54:54,640 Speaker 3: love the oh the movie Murder by Decree with the 960 00:54:54,719 --> 00:54:57,239 Speaker 3: Christopher Plumber where that's the Sherlock Holmes and that's the 961 00:54:57,239 --> 00:55:02,200 Speaker 3: theory that they're running with the Mason the Freemasons, very entertaining, 962 00:55:03,239 --> 00:55:09,120 Speaker 3: But that theory is so silly. It's me number one, 963 00:55:09,160 --> 00:55:12,080 Speaker 3: she would you know, deny, deny, deny any sort of 964 00:55:12,480 --> 00:55:15,360 Speaker 3: you know, relationship between a sex worker and her grandson 965 00:55:15,400 --> 00:55:17,360 Speaker 3: if that were the case. And too, it's just the 966 00:55:17,480 --> 00:55:19,719 Speaker 3: royals don't get their hands started. We know better. But 967 00:55:19,800 --> 00:55:22,480 Speaker 3: also there's like the the HH Holmes theory with him 968 00:55:22,480 --> 00:55:24,840 Speaker 3: being one of the most prolific serial killers in America 969 00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:27,719 Speaker 3: in history, with his murder Hotel he's a fascinator too. 970 00:55:27,880 --> 00:55:29,440 Speaker 3: There's a lot of rumors that's him, but they have 971 00:55:29,560 --> 00:55:31,719 Speaker 3: to debunked that time and time again that he was not. 972 00:55:31,880 --> 00:55:34,319 Speaker 3: So you keep seeing this come up and like it's 973 00:55:34,360 --> 00:55:36,880 Speaker 3: this different as well, like he's a different m O. 974 00:55:36,960 --> 00:55:39,160 Speaker 3: When he was not killing for pleasure, he was killing 975 00:55:39,200 --> 00:55:42,400 Speaker 3: to sell the skeletons to make money. Terrifying that that 976 00:55:42,440 --> 00:55:44,160 Speaker 3: was a thing in American history at all. But I 977 00:55:44,200 --> 00:55:47,280 Speaker 3: mean it's just like hmm, let's dig up a grave 978 00:55:47,360 --> 00:55:51,480 Speaker 3: or body snatching was a very lucrative business for HH Holmes, 979 00:55:51,520 --> 00:55:54,759 Speaker 3: but he totally enjoyed the torment. But I don't think 980 00:55:54,760 --> 00:55:56,319 Speaker 3: it's the same thing at all. 981 00:55:56,360 --> 00:55:59,319 Speaker 1: And H Holmes, it's like Chapman as well, like the 982 00:55:59,360 --> 00:56:03,120 Speaker 1: Lambeth poison.

Again, 998 00:56:44,000 --> 00:56:45,920 Speaker 1: A lot of it is because it's unsolved, you know, 999 00:56:45,960 --> 00:56:48,560 Speaker 1: and there's so many theories and there's so many options, 1000 00:56:48,560 --> 00:56:50,440 Speaker 1: and you know, all these other factors come into it. 1001 00:56:50,480 --> 00:56:52,080 Speaker 1: And I was kind of obsessed.

I think we may be onto something. If 1013 00:57:34,360 --> 00:57:35,960 Speaker 3: it doesn't exist, we should write it. I mean they have. 1014 00:57:36,120 --> 00:57:38,439 Speaker 1: We have come up with a great children's book.

I 1020 00:57:52,320 --> 00:57:53,040 Speaker 1: think that this is. 1021 00:57:53,000 --> 00:57:55,440 Speaker 3: One of those things that all women get into, not 1022 00:57:55,520 --> 00:57:57,680 Speaker 3: because of the violence for the women, but because they're 1023 00:57:57,720 --> 00:58:01,680 Speaker 3: like they're so obsessed with the story, and like, why 1024 00:58:01,880 --> 00:58:03,840 Speaker 3: don't I don't even know exactly why, but I feel 1025 00:58:03,840 --> 00:58:06,560 Speaker 3: like we all are like protective of these victims when 1026 00:58:06,560 --> 00:58:08,200 Speaker 3: we look back at it now like that, you know, 1027 00:58:08,280 --> 00:58:10,440 Speaker 3: with the older we get, the more we realize that 1028 00:58:10,440 --> 00:58:13,360 Speaker 3: that is the focus and not this. Yeah, and we 1029 00:58:13,400 --> 00:58:17,040 Speaker 3: have given a moniker. He's got good branding and that's 1030 00:58:17,080 --> 00:58:20,080 Speaker 3: about but really other than that, you know, he may 1031 00:58:20,120 --> 00:58:22,160 Speaker 3: have still been operating somewhere else. He made in it, 1032 00:58:22,240 --> 00:58:24,480 Speaker 3: but we will never know. 1033 00:58:24,840 --> 00:58:28,000 Speaker 1: And we'll never know like because violence against women then 1034 00:58:28,120 --> 00:58:31,200 Speaker 1: and who knows even now, Like it was never seen 1035 00:58:31,280 --> 00:58:34,480 Speaker 1: as a big deal. So when he escalated to the 1036 00:58:34,560 --> 00:58:38,400 Speaker 1: point of the first canonical victim, we have no idea 1037 00:58:38,440 --> 00:58:41,439 Speaker 1: who came before, right, Like the worst thing is about 1038 00:58:41,440 --> 00:58:44,240 Speaker 1: the Rippers layings is that they're not even they weren't 1039 00:58:44,240 --> 00:58:46,479 Speaker 1: even the only ones happening in London at the time. 1040 00:58:46,520 --> 00:58:49,760 Speaker 1: You had the Torso Martyrs, you had the west Ham Vanishings. 1041 00:58:50,400 --> 00:58:54,360 Speaker 1: You know, you had all of these different like killers 1042 00:58:54,800 --> 00:58:57,200 Speaker 1: running at the same time.

And I think some people 1062 00:59:53,880 --> 00:59:56,680 Speaker 1: are just so determined to be the parents who fickles 1063 00:59:56,760 --> 00:59:57,440 Speaker 1: out as well. 1064 00:59:57,560 --> 01:00:01,640 Speaker 6: Yeah, a lot of men, especially of note, it's always men. 1065 01:00:02,760 --> 01:00:05,800 Speaker 6: They think they know, they think they know, and it 1066 01:00:05,840 --> 01:00:09,080 Speaker 6: would not hold up in a court. I mean, the 1067 01:00:09,120 --> 01:00:12,160 Speaker 6: forensic evidence long gone. A lot of it is, you know, 1068 01:00:12,280 --> 01:00:14,280 Speaker 6: no eyewitnesses, there's no DNA on bodies. 1069 01:00:14,280 --> 01:00:17,200 Speaker 3: They're not gonna be exhuming any of these victims, and 1070 01:00:17,200 --> 01:00:19,480 Speaker 3: I'd say most of them weren't even very well preserved 1071 01:00:19,480 --> 01:00:22,640 Speaker 3: in terms of being you know, yeah, the funeral director, 1072 01:00:22,680 --> 01:00:24,760 Speaker 3: because you're not gonna see that. You're just not going 1073 01:00:24,800 --> 01:00:27,600 Speaker 3: to see that that would have been buried. Their forensic 1074 01:00:27,680 --> 01:00:30,479 Speaker 3: evidence is gone. You cannot prove this, And it's fine 1075 01:00:30,480 --> 01:00:32,200 Speaker 3: to theorize, but a lot of times it just gets 1076 01:00:32,240 --> 01:00:34,800 Speaker 3: to the point where people are so passionate that they're 1077 01:00:34,840 --> 01:00:37,600 Speaker 3: correct that it makes me crazy. I'm like, you're not. 1078 01:00:37,960 --> 01:00:40,160 Speaker 3: We don't know, we will just never know.

Nobody. 1151 01:04:04,400 --> 01:04:07,680 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, No, I mean it doesn't there's no way, 1152 01:04:07,720 --> 01:04:09,960 Speaker 1: and it's always. And you know what the funny thing is, 1153 01:04:10,080 --> 01:04:13,840 Speaker 1: every every theory about it, it's just it's all misogyny, 1154 01:04:14,320 --> 01:04:17,120 Speaker 1: even because every concept of a woman doing it is. 1155 01:04:17,080 --> 01:04:20,440 Speaker 2: Like it was a medwave, it was someone whose husband 1156 01:04:20,520 --> 01:04:23,640 Speaker 2: cheated on her, it's someone who could not have children. 1157 01:04:23,720 --> 01:04:27,400 Speaker 1: It's like all of those are very misogynistic like reasons. 1158 01:04:27,400 --> 01:04:29,600 Speaker 1: And I'm like, that's generally not a reason that women 1159 01:04:29,680 --> 01:04:33,680 Speaker 1: would kill, and women are usually more careful killers. Women. 1160 01:04:34,360 --> 01:04:37,080 Speaker 3: Poisonous storia. I would buy Queen Victoria before I would 1161 01:04:37,080 --> 01:04:39,320 Speaker 3: buy any of those other reasons. Everybody had stipule list 1162 01:04:39,320 --> 01:04:41,400 Speaker 3: back then. That was just the national pastime. 1163 01:04:42,440 --> 01:04:45,280 Speaker 1: Everyone had the pox and their brains were starting to 1164 01:04:45,400 --> 01:04:48,760 Speaker 1: rot because of it. Like it's like it's an actual thing. 1165 01:04:48,920 --> 01:04:53,120 Speaker 1: Look it up. Their brains were rotting, just Victorian brains. 1166 01:04:53,240 --> 01:04:58,000 Speaker 3: Victorian brains running away. But that's it's it's infuriating to me. 1167 01:04:58,040 --> 01:04:59,560 Speaker 3: And I felt like, yeah, I'm so glad we bonded 1168 01:04:59,560 --> 01:05:00,720 Speaker 3: over there because I felt like I was one of 1169 01:05:00,760 --> 01:05:01,680 Speaker 3: the few people in the world like. 1170 01:05:01,680 --> 01:05:04,160 Speaker 5: I don't care, I'm I'm with you because I remember 1171 01:05:04,200 --> 01:05:06,000 Speaker 5: I posted a video about it and you were just 1172 01:05:06,040 --> 01:05:11,160 Speaker 5: like yes in just so many exclamation marks, and I'm like, 1173 01:05:11,200 --> 01:05:13,080 Speaker 5: factally someone agrees with me. 1174 01:05:14,160 --> 01:05:17,320 Speaker 3: Just like it just felt so wrong, and just Mary 1175 01:05:17,400 --> 01:05:20,440 Speaker 3: Kelly gets so she also gets one of them. She's 1176 01:05:20,480 --> 01:05:23,880 Speaker 3: one of the more romanticized of the five. But she's 1177 01:05:23,960 --> 01:05:26,280 Speaker 3: the star of all the conspiracy theories because she was 1178 01:05:26,400 --> 01:05:30,040 Speaker 3: very beautiful, apparently and very just more fitting victims. So 1179 01:05:30,080 --> 01:05:33,760 Speaker 3: she gets put into these conspiracy wasn't she She was 1180 01:05:33,800 --> 01:05:37,440 Speaker 3: the youngest, she was Apparently she was a high class 1181 01:05:37,440 --> 01:05:39,760 Speaker 3: sex worker, you know, a higher level uppressional and sex 1182 01:05:39,800 --> 01:05:42,600 Speaker 3: worker in France from where she where.

Yes, she was very popular, but then she 1186 01:05:51,720 --> 01:05:54,880 Speaker 3: had this fall from grace and no, it's like because 1187 01:05:54,920 --> 01:05:57,560 Speaker 3: she's because she's the more beautiful of all the victims, 1188 01:05:57,560 --> 01:06:00,760 Speaker 3: probably and she's getting these judge by that. You see 1189 01:06:00,760 --> 01:06:03,160 Speaker 3: this romanticizing of her, putting her in the center of 1190 01:06:03,200 --> 01:06:04,760 Speaker 3: like you know, you've seen the from Hell movies, I'm 1191 01:06:04,760 --> 01:06:07,280 Speaker 3: sure and I have. 1192 01:06:07,560 --> 01:06:11,600 Speaker 1: And even the writer of the books, sorry, even Oughnder 1193 01:06:11,640 --> 01:06:13,600 Speaker 1: the book said that, you know, he wrote us to 1194 01:06:13,640 --> 01:06:16,040 Speaker 1: deal with the trauma of his own mother's more dark, Like. 1195 01:06:17,480 --> 01:06:19,080 Speaker 3: That's a lot to unpack for him. 1196 01:06:19,080 --> 01:06:23,280 Speaker 1: Sorry. Yeah, we don't have much time to talk about this. 1197 01:06:23,280 --> 01:06:23,640 Speaker 1: This is. 1198 01:06:25,240 --> 01:06:31,760 Speaker 3: Have you Have you tried therapy, buddy? But I'm like, oh, dear. 1199 01:06:32,520 --> 01:06:36,160 Speaker 1: Romanticizing, have you considered therapy? 1200 01:06:37,720 --> 01:06:39,720 Speaker 3: The answers usually know they haven't, but it's let me 1201 01:06:39,800 --> 01:06:41,600 Speaker 3: just let me just drag down the legacy of another 1202 01:06:41,640 --> 01:06:45,400 Speaker 3: woman romanticized this beyond compared to to the point where 1203 01:06:45,440 --> 01:06:47,480 Speaker 3: she's clearly part of a conspiracy theory, because there's no 1204 01:06:47,520 --> 01:06:51,000 Speaker 3: other reason you feel, not like domestic violence or just 1205 01:06:51,240 --> 01:06:52,600 Speaker 3: sexual violence and sadism. 1206 01:06:52,600 --> 01:06:55,640 Speaker 1: It's just not as if this happened, you know, for 1207 01:06:55,720 --> 01:06:59,400 Speaker 1: electoral centuries. I mean obviously millennia, but like really, I mean, 1208 01:06:59,480 --> 01:07:02,320 Speaker 1: even like even when you got like the Yorkshire Repper 1209 01:07:02,400 --> 01:07:06,320 Speaker 1: slayings and things like that which happened, and the Blackout killer, 1210 01:07:06,440 --> 01:07:09,840 Speaker 1: and it's consistent, it's not as if it's stopped. These 1211 01:07:09,920 --> 01:07:11,200 Speaker 1: crimes keep happening. 1212 01:07:11,760 --> 01:07:15,400 Speaker 3: It's just tell as old as time, and at the 1213 01:07:15,480 --> 01:07:17,320 Speaker 3: end of the day, it's the women that's the story 1214 01:07:17,360 --> 01:07:20,720 Speaker 3: they had. They lost their lives for literally no reason 1215 01:07:20,760 --> 01:07:22,160 Speaker 3: other than whatever. 1216 01:07:21,800 --> 01:07:23,400 Speaker 1: Pleasure because men wanted to hurt them. 1217 01:07:24,120 --> 01:07:26,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, they want to hurt them, and they thought because 1218 01:07:26,640 --> 01:07:28,120 Speaker 3: of who they are. But I think it's just important 1219 01:07:28,120 --> 01:07:30,040 Speaker 3: for history creators when we're talking about it, not just 1220 01:07:30,080 --> 01:07:32,320 Speaker 3: and ripperologists. If they're listening, listen to me. 1221 01:07:32,800 --> 01:07:34,880 Speaker 1: If you are listening and you aren't sending me. 1222 01:07:34,880 --> 01:07:38,480 Speaker 3: Dead, yeah right, if you're not really mean TikTok comments. 1223 01:07:40,200 --> 01:07:43,240 Speaker 3: I mean, that should be the focus. That should always 1224 01:07:43,280 --> 01:07:45,320 Speaker 3: be the focus for those five women. And I was 1225 01:07:45,360 --> 01:07:47,200 Speaker 3: so grateful when that book came out, the five that 1226 01:07:47,360 --> 01:07:49,120 Speaker 3: I was like, thank God, because now that's what we 1227 01:07:49,120 --> 01:07:50,040 Speaker 3: should be focusing on. 1228 01:07:50,480 --> 01:07:53,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm always there was a turning point for me. 1229 01:07:53,720 --> 01:07:56,240 Speaker 1: I don't know when it was, and it was because 1230 01:07:56,240 --> 01:07:58,640 Speaker 1: I do follow a load of a load of historical 1231 01:07:59,160 --> 01:08:02,800 Speaker 1: true crime. Specifically I feel easier to digest in a way, 1232 01:08:02,840 --> 01:08:04,800 Speaker 1: I think just because it is so far back and 1233 01:08:04,840 --> 01:08:08,320 Speaker 1: because pastory is kind of my thing. It's very much 1234 01:08:08,640 --> 01:08:11,720 Speaker 1: we should always see crime as victim first, like victim first, 1235 01:08:11,760 --> 01:08:16,519 Speaker 1: perpetrator second, although sometimes that's the same person. The victim 1236 01:08:16,520 --> 01:08:18,559 Speaker 1: and the perpetrator are the same person, which is another 1237 01:08:18,880 --> 01:08:21,240 Speaker 1: whole thing to deal with. 1238 01:08:21,320 --> 01:08:23,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, switch it around, role reversal. 1239 01:08:23,360 --> 01:08:25,200 Speaker 1: Which is, as I like to call it. Women who 1240 01:08:25,240 --> 01:08:28,040 Speaker 1: poisoned their husbands at the turn of the century, they 1241 01:08:28,080 --> 01:08:30,880 Speaker 1: tend to be both victims and perpetrators to be a 1242 01:08:30,920 --> 01:08:32,320 Speaker 1: reason they gave them marsnak. 1243 01:08:32,720 --> 01:08:35,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, so that's that's the only thing I have ever 1244 01:08:35,400 --> 01:08:37,240 Speaker 3: taken away from this. Not that because at the end 1245 01:08:37,280 --> 01:08:39,160 Speaker 3: of the day, it does not matter who Jack the 1246 01:08:39,200 --> 01:08:42,640 Speaker 3: Ripper was. He is pathetic and we should not. I 1247 01:08:42,640 --> 01:08:44,519 Speaker 3: think it's fine to theorize. I think it's fine, but 1248 01:08:44,600 --> 01:08:47,040 Speaker 3: that should never, never, never be the focus of this 1249 01:08:47,240 --> 01:08:47,720 Speaker 3: entire thing. 1250 01:08:48,600 --> 01:08:49,880 Speaker 1: Focus should be the women. 1251 01:08:50,320 --> 01:08:53,439 Speaker 3: And don't look up those pictures at work, not at work, 1252 01:08:53,920 --> 01:08:55,680 Speaker 3: not on a shared computer. 1253 01:08:57,160 --> 01:09:00,599 Speaker 1: Where you're being surveyed in any way, because. 1254 01:09:01,200 --> 01:09:04,960 Speaker 3: Not before med and just not in public transport where 1255 01:09:04,960 --> 01:09:05,320 Speaker 3: people can. 1256 01:09:05,720 --> 01:09:06,240 Speaker 1: Don't do it. 1257 01:09:06,400 --> 01:09:09,479 Speaker 3: No, nothing like that. Keep that. 1258 01:09:10,000 --> 01:09:13,400 Speaker 1: Keep it's just like, don't don't look at any any 1259 01:09:13,439 --> 01:09:16,360 Speaker 1: old time crime photos. Don't look at any of them 1260 01:09:16,439 --> 01:09:25,080 Speaker 1: at all anywhere, no private alone, preferably daylight, just mode. 1261 01:09:28,720 --> 01:09:33,120 Speaker 1: We should stop getting stop stop giving them ideas it's probably. 1262 01:09:34,800 --> 01:09:38,880 Speaker 3: All right, Okay, that was fun. I think it was fun. 1263 01:09:38,960 --> 01:09:42,240 Speaker 1: That was fun. Something like this again in the future, 1264 01:09:42,280 --> 01:09:44,040 Speaker 1: when I'm slightly more. 1265 01:09:43,640 --> 01:09:47,720 Speaker 3: Probably when you do the Yorkshre Ripper, the Yorkshire Ripper 1266 01:09:47,760 --> 01:09:48,559 Speaker 3: of the Blackout Killer. 1267 01:09:48,640 --> 01:09:51,400 Speaker 5: I'll just start I'll just start finding weird let me, 1268 01:09:52,320 --> 01:09:53,840 Speaker 5: I'll be like emailing you these times. 1269 01:09:54,880 --> 01:09:56,719 Speaker 3: We're gonna look up. I've been looking up the Carry 1270 01:09:56,720 --> 01:09:58,640 Speaker 3: Brown because I wasn't familiar to I mean, I had 1271 01:09:58,680 --> 01:10:00,840 Speaker 3: heard about it, but I hadn't seen I just think 1272 01:10:00,880 --> 01:10:03,880 Speaker 3: it's more. Oh, it's pretty similar. Yeah, I think I 1273 01:10:03,920 --> 01:10:05,000 Speaker 3: think it's. 1274 01:10:04,760 --> 01:10:08,000 Speaker 1: It's closer to the Mary Jane Kelly slaying than any 1275 01:10:08,040 --> 01:10:08,880 Speaker 1: of the Whitechapel. 1276 01:10:09,320 --> 01:10:11,760 Speaker 3: She's kind of positioned the same way too, in terms 1277 01:10:11,760 --> 01:10:13,519 Speaker 3: of the head being to the side and body even. 1278 01:10:13,560 --> 01:10:18,320 Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, that's interesting and it's very interesting to decide. 1279 01:10:18,320 --> 01:10:21,759 Speaker 1: Bar for a second, it's they kept calling the person 1280 01:10:21,840 --> 01:10:23,840 Speaker 1: that was in the room with her French ya, but 1281 01:10:23,920 --> 01:10:27,599 Speaker 1: Frenchie was a term for anybody foreign. It wasn't necessarily French. 1282 01:10:27,880 --> 01:10:29,840 Speaker 1: Could have been Italian, could have been German, could have 1283 01:10:29,840 --> 01:10:32,720 Speaker 1: been Belgium, could have been Dutch. It doesn't matter. They 1284 01:10:32,760 --> 01:10:33,559 Speaker 1: were just French. 1285 01:10:33,600 --> 01:10:34,640 Speaker 3: Ye, frenchie. 1286 01:10:34,960 --> 01:10:37,599 Speaker 1: And then when you think of let's talk about again, 1287 01:10:37,640 --> 01:10:40,920 Speaker 1: but the concept of who who Jack the Ripper was 1288 01:10:41,439 --> 01:10:44,080 Speaker 1: a lot of the original theories they either revolve around 1289 01:10:44,120 --> 01:10:49,880 Speaker 1: misogyny or just general's enophobia and anti semitism, because because 1290 01:10:49,920 --> 01:10:52,920 Speaker 1: when you think about Whitechapel was an area for immigrants, 1291 01:10:53,160 --> 01:10:56,200 Speaker 1: really people just kind of ended up there and that's 1292 01:10:56,280 --> 01:10:58,559 Speaker 1: where a lot of it. You know, leather Apron became 1293 01:10:58,760 --> 01:11:01,719 Speaker 1: Jack the Ripper because of spring Heil Jack by Charles Dickens. 1294 01:11:01,760 --> 01:11:04,120 Speaker 1: It's a whole thing penal titles. 1295 01:11:04,160 --> 01:11:07,600 Speaker 3: Dammit, I love the story of spring Hill Chick like 1296 01:11:07,800 --> 01:11:12,559 Speaker 3: great assess Wing that's too good. But now and you'll 1297 01:11:12,560 --> 01:11:15,320 Speaker 3: see that the people who were pushing used like the 1298 01:11:15,400 --> 01:11:18,720 Speaker 3: anti semitism and xenophobia against. 1299 01:11:18,439 --> 01:11:21,400 Speaker 1: People to accuse them of it's just because it's the 1300 01:11:21,439 --> 01:11:23,400 Speaker 1: whole thing of like the whole concept of copy and 1301 01:11:23,479 --> 01:11:26,640 Speaker 1: paste comes from. Like they would literally cut bits at 1302 01:11:26,640 --> 01:11:29,679 Speaker 1: the newspaper, stick it onto the new printer and they 1303 01:11:29,720 --> 01:11:33,320 Speaker 1: would just that's how they would reprint because you know, 1304 01:11:33,680 --> 01:11:37,000 Speaker 1: if you've got they didn't have, you know, reporters in 1305 01:11:37,040 --> 01:11:39,519 Speaker 1: every area.

Do you I am the source? Ki? 1372 01:14:55,479 --> 01:15:01,440 Speaker 1: They we're just like doing hand puppets, just like. 1373 01:15:00,080 --> 01:15:01,240 Speaker 3: What do you think wack is bancas? 1374 01:15:01,280 --> 01:15:06,280 Speaker 1: You know, Oh yes, I guess. 1375 01:15:05,680 --> 01:15:11,200 Speaker 3: That, Steph Love.

I just don't 1402 01:16:36,880 --> 01:16:39,320 Speaker 1: have any only and I'm very tired because I'm editing 1403 01:16:39,400 --> 01:16:42,360 Speaker 1: this so late at night. And that was the wonderful 1404 01:16:42,400 --> 01:16:47,599 Speaker 1: Melissa fair Lady from The God's Favorites podcast and on TikTok. 1405 01:16:47,760 --> 01:16:49,920 Speaker 1: If you're on History Talk, you know her. If you're 1406 01:16:49,920 --> 01:16:52,519 Speaker 1: not on History Talk, go watch her. That is your 1407 01:16:52,560 --> 01:16:55,760 Speaker 1: recommendation for me this week. Watch her tiktoks and her 1408 01:16:55,880 --> 01:17:00,920 Speaker 1: Instagram and listen to her podcast. It's fantastic. So what 1409 01:17:01,080 --> 01:17:03,240 Speaker 1: am I going to say though before we end this 1410 01:17:03,360 --> 01:17:07,400 Speaker 1: episode is I want to talk about one apologize if 1411 01:17:07,439 --> 01:17:09,599 Speaker 1: the sound equality is poor because this is my first 1412 01:17:09,600 --> 01:17:11,800 Speaker 1: time doing a two person thing and trying to edit 1413 01:17:12,080 --> 01:17:17,800 Speaker 1: my end. So and secondly, although we don't know Mary 1414 01:17:17,880 --> 01:17:21,120 Speaker 1: Jane Kelly's I don't know history, her real life, her 1415 01:17:22,000 --> 01:17:25,559 Speaker 1: real name, because all the clues point to the fact 1416 01:17:25,600 --> 01:17:29,240 Speaker 1: that we don't. However, we can at least take solace 1417 01:17:29,320 --> 01:17:33,200 Speaker 1: in the fact that whomever the White Chapel Killer was, 1418 01:17:34,000 --> 01:17:38,160 Speaker 1: whoever Jack may be, is someone called Jack Ass. The Ripper. 1419 01:17:38,880 --> 01:17:40,960 Speaker 1: Here's the thing about jack Ass the Ripper is that 1420 01:17:41,760 --> 01:17:44,880 Speaker 1: we don't know his real name. Whatever he was trying 1421 01:17:44,920 --> 01:17:48,439 Speaker 1: to do, whatever he was trying to prove, whatever innate 1422 01:17:48,560 --> 01:17:50,599 Speaker 1: hatred he had that he was trying to push out 1423 01:17:50,600 --> 01:17:55,760 Speaker 1: in the world, his name is not known. The man 1424 01:17:55,840 --> 01:18:00,719 Speaker 1: wielding the knife, we don't know who that is, and frankly, 1425 01:18:00,760 --> 01:18:04,160 Speaker 1: I think we shouldn't find out because I don't think 1426 01:18:04,160 --> 01:18:07,120 Speaker 1: it matters. I don't think he deserves to have his 1427 01:18:07,320 --> 01:18:13,880 Speaker 1: name known, whether in infamy or not. And at the 1428 01:18:13,960 --> 01:18:16,240 Speaker 1: end of the day, whoever did kill Mary Jane and 1429 01:18:16,320 --> 01:18:19,479 Speaker 1: these other women, whether they were the same person, which 1430 01:18:19,479 --> 01:18:24,760 Speaker 1: I doubt, or multiple people, which I genuinely believe, then 1431 01:18:25,960 --> 01:18:30,519 Speaker 1: they are sad, pathitic men who hate women, and they're 1432 01:18:30,560 --> 01:18:32,759 Speaker 1: not worthy of our time. What is worthy over time 1433 01:18:33,479 --> 01:18:38,400 Speaker 1: is learning the stories of people who suffered, who dealt 1434 01:18:38,400 --> 01:18:42,000 Speaker 1: with this, who had to live in these conditions. And 1435 01:18:42,200 --> 01:18:46,599 Speaker 1: they say history is repeating. You know, those who don't 1436 01:18:46,680 --> 01:18:49,479 Speaker 1: learn history are doomed to repeat it. And that's right, 1437 01:18:50,800 --> 01:18:52,439 Speaker 1: and we need to make sure we don't repeat it 1438 01:18:52,479 --> 01:19:01,519 Speaker 1: because people, society, everybody deserves better originalized on the fringes 1439 01:19:01,560 --> 01:19:07,240 Speaker 1: of society. People who are pushed down minorities. They deserve better. 1440 01:19:07,320 --> 01:19:09,680 Speaker 1: And if you don't believe that, you are part of 1441 01:19:09,680 --> 01:19:15,280 Speaker 1: the problem. Now go listen to Melissa and her amazing stuff. 1442 01:19:16,320 --> 01:19:18,120 Speaker 1: I'm going to go now because it's very late and 1443 01:19:18,160 --> 01:19:20,519 Speaker 1: I need to get to sleep, because I need to 1444 01:19:20,640 --> 01:19:23,880 Speaker 1: edit this and it's so so long. But I am 1445 01:19:23,920 --> 01:19:27,960 Speaker 1: going to say adios au revoir of Where is all 1446 01:19:27,960 --> 01:19:28,640 Speaker 1: my friends? 1447 01:19:29,000 --> 01:19:34,200 Speaker 2: Bye bye, and I am unwell, as you can tell 1448 01:19:34,200 --> 01:19:37,000 Speaker 2: by my voice.
