Charles Allen Lechmere

The man who discovered the lifeless body of Mary Ann ('Polly') Nichols, the first 'canonical victim' of Jack the Ripper, lied to the police and lied under oath at the inquest into her death. He also presented himself as Charles Allen Cross; another lie. The more we look at Charles Allen Lechmere as a Ripper suspect, the more interesting he becomes. In this second episode of Murder in Whitechapel we will take a closer look at this fascinating new suspect. 👀 Viewer discretion advised! 💰 Support the Inspector Abberline channel on Patreon:   / membership   https://ko-fi.com/jasonmichael Whitechapel 1888 | True Crime | Jack the Ripper | Serial Killers | Charles Allen Lechmere | Mystery | Polly Ann Nichols | Autumn of Terror | Annie Chapman | Buck's Row | 29 Hanbury Street | Victoriana | London | Victorian London | Christer Holmgren | Edward Stow | Donald Rumbelow | Commuter Killer | Criminology | 22 Doveton Street | Mitre Square | Ripperology
