International best-selling author Patricia Cornwell talks about the possibility of exhuming and examining the remains of Mary Jane Kelly.
Mary Jane Kelly was a victim of the notorious serial killer Jack the Ripper and it has been suggested that the victim was wrongly identified.
Patricia Cornwell is interested to see if her body can be exhumed, examined, correctly identified and analysed for evidence that could answer some of the questions that continue to surround this historical murder case.
She has been working with University of Leicester academic Dr Turi King on this and other projects.
This film was produced by Marketing and Student Recruitment at the University of Leicester.
Filmed and Edited by Carl Vivian
Produced by Ellen Rudge

Excellent objective monologue delivered by a most welcome visitor and scholarly expert on this subject and on Justice for human beings!She is refreshingly free of British class bias leading to British Art Snobbery:her truths,profound and going beyond the details to the proof that Sickert wasnt in Dieppe,which Snobbery claims,and to the Ripper letter on a sheet from the 24 that his mothered kept!This is a matter of human justice,she is dead right about Mary Kelly,and may the future research in this trounce the nonsense that "A great artist cant be a mass murderer"! The detractors need to read her 2 immaculate scholarly volumes fully :they will see that this lady is an astounding thinker and writer!Thank you Leicester for this!

Corwall's books are the biggest load of bunk I've ever read. Absolute nonsense. I wonder if she's ever even looked at the other strong suspects, as she claims that she previously had no knowledge of JTR before she even wrote her first book! Just another greedy author trying to cash in on this famous case, not to mention the pure arrogance of claiming to have 'solved' the case! A case that will never be solved. What an ego!

If Patricia Cornwell & other academics, such as those at the University of Leicester, were able to give us any new information on this case then it would be Incredibly interesting. This is a killer whose crimes were not only truly shocking, even by today's standards, but also have managed to captivate the attention of the public for over a Hundred years now. I know Cornwell, particularly, has invested large amounts of her own money, along with her time and reputation, into trying to get to the bottom of this, and I also know that she favours the theory of the artist Walter Sickert as the killer, but of course whether or not it can ever be proved is another thing. But I do commend her for dedicating so much of her resources into finding out, it's incredibly honourable - the victims were Real people who Were actually murdered, and the truth needs to come to light and Someone needs to be fighting to get justice for them. She is also incredibly right about us needing to focus, as well as to Find Out more about the Victims, because not only is that moral, but also it could be potentially Very informative in terms of the case and what it could tell us as to the identity of the killer. So, if anyone Is out there who thinks that they're related to one of the victims, etc., then do get in touch with her, as it could be so beneficial, and also genuinely so interesting.

KBDollar Take the following story as you will.... Several years ago I was was seeing a bona fide trance channel at the time Cornwall's book came out. I said I felt I had been around that scene. the guides said it was not appropriate to go further with my experience at the time but that Cornwell was a victim of the Ripper and in this lifetime seeking justice by exposing him. Sickert was the culprit. That explains the obsession of her mission. Several months later I had a three part continuous nightmare. part 1was seeing a ghastly attack on a victim. I awoke hyperventilating and went out on my deck to recover. part 2 was a scene of a man in a top hat and cloak walking with a woman in the Victorian garb in the setting of the neighborhood of the Ripper events. As an observer I wanted to warn the woman to get away. the man's eye caught mine. Again I woke up in a terrified state. Part 3 Someone was coming at me with a shiv to murder me. I woke up just as that was happening and was out of my mine in terror. The next day I had a reading with my trance channel. As she was looking at the scene she started crying. Evidently in that life I had been a 12 year old pickpocket who had witnessed one of the murders and a subsequent victim to be. Because of that I was brutally murdered myself by a minion of the Ripper. I have the feeling that Cornwall was Cornwall in that lifetime. I don't claim this as proof. Just my experience, the intensity of which I never felt before.

there were two victims before the canonical five. and then Marie Kelly was the fifth victim of the canonical five. looking at the map the first four canonical victims form a cross. with the bloody addition of Marie, taking into consideration that three of the victims had been drained of their blood as if sucked dry by a vampire. one of the victims (Elizabeth Stride) refused to get inside of Jack The Ripper's carriage so her blood did not get drained into an empty whiskey jug using a blood transfusion kit, otherwise her blood would have been drained too. witnesses saw a man dressed up like a pirate or a sailor before both Elizabeth Stride and Catherine Eddowes were murdered. could the pirate have been Dr. Robert Donston Stephenson in disguise?? because the killer (Walter Sickert) of Elizabeth Stride had handed his bloody clothes to the landlady at Batty Street and told her they needed washing before running off into the night. he would have to have had a change of clothes in Stephenson's waiting carriage. the name he had given the landlady was that of Mary Kelly's boyfriend as if he was going to be used as the fall guy for Mary's murder. add Bloody Mary (not quite dead center of the cross as Martha Tabram was but the symbolism is still there) and you have what is known as a Rosicrucian Cross: a symbol used both by the Freemasons and the Hermetic Order Of The Golden Dawn. the blood drained out of the three previous victims could have been drank like some kind of Satanic wine or used in a Satanic ritual at a secret location or splashed onto an apron as a false clue. Walter Sickert, Dr. Robert Donston Stephenson (a part-time journalist for the Pall Mall Gazette as well as having been a war surgeon and a believer in black magic), and little Aleister Crowley (a 12-year-old boy whose own mother described him as being Satan incarnate) would be the three assassins of Masonic legend. one of their objectives was to frame the Whitechapel coroner W.E. Baxter, who was both a Jew and a Freemason. but their main objective was to summon demons from Hell to take over London and destroy the British Empire!!

yes, it is definitely possible that Sickert a mischievous practical joker (you can see it in his eyes) was most likely an atheist. his mother was highly religious and always preaching and harping about God and the sins of the flesh. Sickert secretly hated her and would have loved to have stabbed her to death but took out his anger on the selected victims. Sir Henry irving for whom he worked was a secret pagan and Dr. Robert Donston Stephenson was a Satanist. young Aleister Crowley was accused (by his mother) of being the Devil incarnate after having raped the housemaid and drunkenly pissed on her flowers. this was because of the bad influence of his uncle Jonathan Sparrow Crowley who "adopted" young Aleister in order to be closer to the small fortune he had inherited when his father died of tongue cancer. his father although a church minister was ironically the owner of a beer brewing company, but Aleister's father did not drink alcohol himself. his uncle Jonathan, however, was the black sheep of the family and taught evil little Aleister all the things that he wanted to learn. but when his uncle suddenly died in October 1888, Aleister was already under the spell of the evil Dr. Stephenson and his carriage driver Walter Sickert. yes, Sickert allowed himself to be talked into becoming a part-time carriage driver because he needed more excitement in his life. the evil Dr. Stephenson and his new demonic disciple Aleister would prove to be very exciting!! he would pretend to be as interested as they were in black magic and the occult. but when Dr. Stephenson's black magic spell backfired, and he became weaker and weaker and weaker, Aleister journeyed to Switzerland to do some mountain climbing, and Sickert decided to devote more time to painting. Stephenson supposedly moved away to a coastal town to retire and get fresh air. although he sometimes visited London from time to time for brief get togethers. he at some point disappeared mysteriously (just like his wife who had mysteriously disappeared without a clue), and no one knows when he died or where he might have been buried. it is possible that he may have drowned at sea while on a voyage during a storm.

Reading the comments I find it really ironic and interesting that people don't believe her Walter Sickert accusations... as in, if she IS wrong, she has absolutely assassinated the artist's character. So saying her focus is on the victims is kinda funny because - if she's wrong - then Sickert is a victim in this case too. A victim of false accusation thanks to her obsession. Note: I have literally just finished reading her book this past half hour and I really dunno what I think.

If I recall correctly: it was beleived that Walter Sickert was in France during the later stages of of the Jack the Ripper saga, certainly by the time of Mary Kelly's murder. Nonetheless Ms. Croenwell makes a compelling case against Sickert. Alternatively DNA evidence suggests that Aaron Kominski was Jack the Ripper; but like a finger print it doesn't necessarly prove someone commited a crime, it only proves they were at the scene, the DNA really only shows that he had contact with the victim at some point.

There is no way the authorities would give permission to exhume her remains, if there is anything still in the grave. If there is anything of her remaining it would probably only be her teeth. So many graves would have to be disturbed. Many Jane Kelly's grave had up to five other people buried there in that space to fit more dead there. On top of that they dug up that whole area we she is to make room for other graves.

It's strange , because you really don't envision women from the 1880s doing this , but if you look closely at the crime scene photo of Mary Jane Kelly dead in her bed , you can see she had her toe - nails with nail polish on , and probably her finger - nails too ! Also , it's very hard to see , but if you look closely at her left fore - arm , she has a very crude "HEART - TATTOO" just below what looks like an upside down F , that the killer carved into her fore - arm !!. Like I said , you just would not expect to see those things in the 1880s , especially on women that were of the prostitute class , which Mary Jane Kelly was. What a horrible way to die , though !!

George Hutchinson is the name of that man. And I for one have always found him to be highly suspicious, given the amount of detail in his description of the man he saw. And seemingly 'inserting' himself into the investigation, being overly helpful. I wonder if he were JTR hiding in plain sight. Others, too, are now looking into Hutchinson as being another strong suspect.

I always find it strange that just about everyone gets the Mary Jane Kelly murder wrong. Compare her murder to the rest. Contrary to myth Jack wasn't left handed but right handed. Now there is no such thing as simply right or left handed. But in the Ripper cases Chapman, Stride and the rest of them were most likely killed by someone who had the knife in his right hand. This is not true for Mary Jane Kelly. Remember now 13 Miller's court, the room Mary rented had the bed to the right. She was murdered while her head was in the tip right corner of the bed facing the wall. For a killer with the knife in his right hand he would have had to cut her throat in a very weird and less than optimal angle, whereas if he used his left hand he would have just leaned over and cut it. Fast and effective. So either we are dealing with a killer who could use either hand but prefered his right. Or Mary was killed by someone else.

I believe its merely what he had in mind for all his victims, he just was not able to go that far out in the open due to the constant threat of being caught in the act. He simply didn't have time. Most of the killings it seemed he was disturbed, he heard footsteps approach so had to flee , sometimes the blood was still seeping out the neck like it had only taken place within several minutes. Police passed by ever 15 minutes or less . It was he'll of a chance he was taking, virtually nobody on that area had private rooms they all shared rooms with several families all in the one place or doss houses with 10 beds to a room. It just so happened Kelly had a room to herself where he could do everything he wanted to do to any victim

I simply think that the ripper eventually grew tired of being interrupted , or worse, risking to be caught in the act.

I also think police back then and we all now, didn't even get close to figuring out who Jack really was. I think whoever did all of this went COMPLETELY unoticed, unsuspected and completely got away with it.

I think this might be only a part of the answer. He had already mutilated the face of Catherine Eddowes, but Mary Kelly was completely disfigured. It is possible that he took some kind of interest in her...or that she refused his advances in some way (Mary Kelly was said to be an occasional prostitute), or mocked him and he 'snapped'. Who knows ? Many authors (like Patricia Cornwell with Walter Sickert) have bent the truth to suit their 'favorite' suspect but I'm glad to hear her say : "Well, let's put the killer aside this time and let's hear what the victim has to say"

not personal. the killer made her look like a daemon. regular women were safe it appears. he only hated prostitutes. reason? maybe his own mother was one. it may look personal probably because in his mind he's killing his mother. the mutilation... he thinks they are hideous beings with no souls on the inside and so he tries to make them look like hideous beings on the outside. he isn't going to feel bad over what he has done because to him it's a moral crusade. the police probably didn't try nearly as hard enough to catch him as society at large back then had a very low opinion of prostitutes. they already know alot about the killer from crime scene photgraphs. the cutting open.. the inside is important. this is a statement. he's removing the fetus.

Cornwell was dead wrong about Walter Sickert. She wasn't even close with that claim.

@@tiffanylove6713 So some claim. The issue with that is they base it of his dna on the shawl. That alone would not have gotten him convicted in any court of law. How many other mens dna is on that shawl? I bet you there is a few. What does that tell us? Remember the victims were all unfortunates as they were labelled back then. They sold their bodies to men to survive. They did what they had to do as simple as that. All his dna on the shawl proves is that he came in contact with the victim at some point. Like other men did. We need much more than that to be able to make the claim it was Kosminski who did it, and honestly we don't have anything more.

By "speak", she means to give information through the examination of remains. She is essentially asking that permission be granted for Kelly's remains to be exhumed and studied with modern technologies, and in so doing, the victim "speaks" to us by giving more information than what was possible to ascertain in 1888.
