When Conspiracy Theories Collide: Jack The Ripper Unmasked As Lord Lucan
The seventh Earl of Lucan ( descendant of the Charge of The Light Brigade Lucan) was a typical sprig of the more louche end of the British nobility, who lived in Belgravia and spent much of his time at the gaming tables of Mayfair. He disappeared after his family’s nanny, Sandra Rivett, was found beaten to death in the Lucan family home in 1974: he has never been found and theories still abound about the murder. Now comes this from The Scotsman:
Has a fresh look at 118-year-old evidence revealed the true face of Jack the Ripper?
VICTORIA THAKE
THE face of Jack the Ripper, the 19th-century killer whose identity still remains a mystery, has been revealed for the first time.
Using state-of-the-art profiling, investigators have created a vision of what the murderer, who strangled and butchered five London prostitutes, would have looked like – and revealed that police at the time were probably searching for the wrong kind of man.
Woooo, spooky.
Yes, they probably were looking for the wrong kind of man: perhaps what they should’ve been looking for was a psychopathic Time Lord in a battered blue police box.
Don’t you love tinfoil-hattery convergence?
