Jack the Ripper Identified

So… Sweeney Todd was Jack The Ripper?

You guys know it's true, you are in denial.  You just want the intrigue and mystery to continue forever.........

I bet his real name was Jack Albert Hird and his only crime was being more impressive than victorian era journalists.

It was glitter wasn't it?

Self-report here:

Only realised a couple months ago where the term 'up the Gary' comes from - rhyming slang!

So maybe not so much:

Woop. 

"But experts with detailed knowledge of the GMI's mtDNA database claimed that Dr Louhelainen made an "error of nomenclature" because the mutation in question should be written as "315.1C" and not "314.1C". Had Dr Louhelainen done this, and followed standard forensic practice, he would have discovered the mutation was not rare at all but shared by more than 99 per cent of people of European descent."

 

 

Thats right! Everyone knows that!!!    

 

 

At least they've narrowed it down to European descent.

Well, there's an unexpected turnup.

"But experts with detailed knowledge of the GMI's mtDNA database claimed that Dr Louhelainen made an "error of nomenclature" because the mutation in question should be written as "315.1C" and not "314.1C".

So what's Dr Louhelainen's opinion on the status of AOD?

I over heard him say it was "alegal".

 

Not sure if it was his accent or not, or whether he meant "illegal" or "a legal substance".

Tipping someone will find a flaw in the testing process and doubt will remain.

yep, they did!

"AOD 9603 is completely safe and not banned under any anti-doping scheme in the world"

 

Should put a few minds at ease.

So not a distant ancestor of Caroline Wilson?

Nomenclature.

Will the guys family sue for slander now?

I love how, more than a century on and the best answer is "oh some pesky Jew".

Did the inquisitions ever really end?

Nomenclature.

Asian American, Dude.
