I want it to be solved, but there have been so many false leads. I'll wait for more information.
I personally have always thought that a number of the earlier knife assaults, including the Tabram murder, were Ripper crimes. Like most mentally ill people, the impulses that eventually come to control serial murderers progress throughout their lives. The escalating violence and depravity of the Ripper's crimes seem to follow that pattern, and there is, as is true of a lot of complex behaviors, an element of "confidence" involved as well. At some point he committed his first violent assault(s). It was probably not a murder. Kosminski had such a history.
Coincident with the Green River Killer, who also targeted prostitutes, there were five [maybe six or seven] murders in Spokane, WA, in the same time-frame. Those victims were also hookers. The MO was similar to the GRK. The cases were only differentiated after the fact because two different police departments, and later two different task forces had jurisdiction. The question of overlap was considered.
Muddle it all with much poorer communication and turf protection between the City Police, Scotland Yard, add a century, and note that there are dissimilarities in even the five canonical murders which make you wonder if the same man was involved, and you have a very interesting case file indeed.
