Alaina takes us to the streets of Whitechapel for part one of Jack The Ripper, and boy is it a stark picture she’s painting us. Whitechapel was dark, damp, dirty and downright desolate at the time Jack The Ripper was roaming the streets. People were living in all kinds of horrible conditions, butchers and slaughterhouse workers were walking around covered in blood and because things were like this, it made the perfect stomping ground for a vicious murderer. Mary Ann "Polly" Nichols was the Ripper’s first victim and the main person that we’ll go over in part one while Alaina also gives us a background on a couple of other potential early victims. Stay tuned for (we’re thinkin’) three more!Check out these great books on the case:<a href="https://www.amazon.com/Ripper-Scotland-Yards-Prime-Suspect/dp/0470938994/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?keywords=jack+the+ripper+book&qid=1658170810&sprefix=JACK+THE+RIPPER%2Caps%2C73&sr=8-1-spons&psc=1&spLa=ZW5jcnlwdGVkUXVhbGlmaWVyPUFEVEpDTjhQTjJGTkMmZW5jcnlwdGVkSWQ9QTEwMDg4MjExT09LS1JVM0E0N0kwJmVuY3J5cHRlZEFkSWQ9QTAyODQ3NzQxUFBHT1lCSDA1Rk5CJndpZGdldE5hbWU9c3BfYXRmJmFjdGlvbj1jbGlja1JlZGlyZWN0JmRvTm90TG9nQ2xpY2s9dHJ1ZQ==" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Jack the Ripper and The Case For Scotland Yard's Prime Suspect by Robert House</a><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Complete-Jack-Ripper-Donald-Rumbelow/dp/0753541505/ref=sr_1_6?keywords=jack+the+ripper+book&qid=1658170810&sprefix=JACK+THE+RIPPER%2Caps%2C73&sr=8-6" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Complete Jack the Ripper by Donald Rumbelow</a><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Five-Untold-Lives-Killed-Ripper-ebook/dp/B078985Z44/ref=sr_1_7?keywords=jack+the+ripper+book&qid=1658170810&sprefix=JACK+THE+RIPPER%2Caps%2C73&sr=8-7" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Five: The Untold Lives of the Women Killed by Jack the Ripper by Hallie Rubenhold</a><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Hidden-Lives-Jack-Rippers-Victims-ebook/dp/B082RC6DHR/ref=sr_1_1?crid=229EVEB9H5G7&keywords=The+hidden+lives+of+jack+the+ripper&qid=1658171005&sprefix=the+hidden+lives+of+jack+the+ripper%2Caps%2C73&sr=8-1" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Hidden Lives of Jack the Ripper's Victims by Robert Hume</a><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Ripper-Code-Thomas-Toughill-ebook/dp/B01M21C2N0/ref=sr_1_1?crid=L9C6IB3ZKW3X&keywords=The+Ripper+Code&qid=1658171055&sprefix=the+ripper+code%2Caps%2C144&sr=8-1" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Ripper Code by Thomas Toughill</a>Also check out these sites on the case:<a href="https://www.jack-the-ripper.org" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">JackTheRipper.org</a><a href="https://www.casebook.org/intro.html" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Casebook: Jack The Ripper</a>See Privacy Policy at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy</a> and California Privacy Notice at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info</a>.
