Jack's Last Shadow? - Whitechapel Chronicles 6

Jack's Last Shadow? - Whitechapel Chronicles 6 
News of the Times Episode 505 | 1888
By November 1888, the East End of London was no stranger to fear.
The shock of earlier murders had settled into a grim, uneasy silence—until one final killing shattered it completely.
Behind the locked door of a tiny room at 13 Miller’s Court, Mary Jane Kelly was found horrifically mutilated. This wasn’t just another Ripper murder. It was an escalation—grotesque, personal, and chilling in its precision.
In this final episode of The Whitechapel Chronicles, we follow the tragic final hours of Mary Jane Kelly—young, vibrant, and known for her kindness—and the night that transformed her story into legend.
What the killer left behind was unlike anything seen before.
He had time. He had privacy. And he had a terrible purpose.

We’ll explore original newspaper reports, inquest testimonies, and the ripple effect her death had on a city already paralyzed by fear.
A failed bloodhound trail. A heart gone missing.
And a question that still lingers:
Was Mary Jane Kelly the Ripper’s final victim—or simply his most brutal?

Hosted by Robin Coles.
