everything I know about him ->I believe he was a man who murdered several folks in London and had amazing fashion sense (ie: top hat, jacket with tail)
seriously that's it

No, I wasn't thinking of Sweeney Todd, because Sweeny Todd is an urban legend at best. One of the individuals thought to be a possible Jack the Ripper was something similar to the man that I described above - I was thinking of George Chapman, AKA Seweryn Antonowicz Klosowski.stonethered said:you're thinking of sweeney todd. jack the ripper is the one who dumped HOs in the river in victorian england. he is famous for having never been caught, making killings with surgical precision, and well, killing HOs.LockHeart said:I've heard that he was a barber (I think) and that he was a suspect in poisoning his wife and fled the country. It's a long time ago since I've read up on it so I could be wrong, but I remember something along those lines...
Well there weren't any spelling rules back then, were there? Wasn't it just "spell however you want to"?somedude98 said:From what ive been taught this is very unlikely as we know that while this man was educated to a degree in anatomical knowlage he wasnt very smart in other areas. His spelling was terrible and his grammer was also pretty poor. We know this because on the wall of a murder scene the words "The juws are the people who will not be blamed for nothing". Im not sure he spelt jews exactly like that but i know it was spelt wrong. There was lots of antisematism at the time in whitechapel and id like to think that the queens surgeon would write better and wouldnt be so up to date on the mood of whitechapel slums. Also his scentance is entirely ambiguous in meaning. This man was smart but he certainly had nothing to do with royalty.Reuq said:If you dont want to get banned then dont post it.Apocalypse Tank said:SPAH SAPPING MAH PROSTITUTES

OT: Maby the queens surgeon, that seems to be popular opinion. Though i'd like to believe that it was something more interesting!
