Jack the Ripper

A serial killer that terrorized London’s East End around the turn of the century, his name was taken from a letter he allegedly sent to a local newspaper. The murders were fairly gruesome and typically involved the dismemberment of prostitutes. In spite of modern police methods, to this day no one knows who the Ripper was.
