Charles Lechmere - The Case For The Prosecution With Christer Holmgren.

If you would like to buy a copy of "Cutting Pont" it is available on Amazon. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Cutting-Poin... In this video, journalist and researcher Christer Holmgren, author of the book "Cutting Point", puts forward the case for Charles Allen Lechmere having been not only Jack the Ripper but also the perpetrator of a lesser known series of crimes known as "The Thames Torso Murders." Christer's case begins with the murder of Mary Nichols, now generally believed to have been the first victim of the killer who would become known as Jack the Ripper. Her body was discovered in the early hours of the morning of August 31st, 1888 by carman Charles Allen Cross as he made his way to work along a dark East End thoroughfare which was then known as Buck's Row. However, it would later be discovered that Charles Cross was, in fact, Charles Allen Lechmere, who was residing at 22 Doveton Street, just a short distance away from Buck's Row. Christer Holmgren takes the viewer through the events of that early morning and builds the case for the East End carman - who was always believed to have simply been the discoverer of the body of Jack the Ripper's first victim - as the actual perpetrator of the crime. He then goes on to reveal the evidence that links him to the other Whitechapel murders, as well as the Thames Torso atrocities.
