Serial killer Jack the Ripper unmasked after 126-years

Serial killer Jack the Ripper was responsible for at least five grisly murders in Whitechapel in East London during the autumn of 1888 and, till now, no one knew his real identity dailymail.co.uk. However, thanks to modern day technologies, it has now been revealed beyond reasonable doubt that one of the six key suspects usually cited in connection with the Ripper’s reign of terror was the actual killer.
The confirmation has come from DNA analysis of blood from a shawl found by the body of Catherine Eddowes, one of the Ripper’s victims.
Its analysis has shown DNA from the blood of the woman as well as DNA from the killer.,br> This came about because of the shawl which had been put up for an auction in March 2007, in an auction house in Bury St Edmunds. A businessman Russell Edwards, 48, bought the item and enlisted the help of Dr Jari Louhelainen, a world-renowned expert in analyzing genetic evidence from historical crime scenes.
Using cutting-edge techniques, Dr Louhelainen was able to extract 126-year-old DNA from the material and compare it to DNA from descendants of the slain woman Catherine Eddowes and the suspect – they proved a perfect match.
Incidentally, the long line of men believed to be Jack the Ripper included Prince Albert Victor, Edward VII’s son, allegedly driven by syphilis-induced madness, Sir William Gull, Queen Victoria’s doctor, painter Walter Sickert, a Jewish shoemaker, a polish barber who later poisoned three women - and Aaron Kosminski, a Polish lunatic who was the real Ripper.
