After 137 Years, DNA May Have Finally Revealed Jack the Ripper
The Barber in the Shadows
Aaron Kosminski was far from a dramatic suspect. He was a quiet barber living close to the crime scenes, and historical records describe him as struggling with mental illness. He was eventually committed to an asylum, a detail that kept his name buried in old police notes for decades.
Supporters claim his background and location make him a disturbing fit. Skeptics argue that the records are inconsistent and unfairly vague. True to the Ripper story, even the most talked-about suspect remains wrapped in doubt.
