Summary

No historical true crime case is more hotly debated around the world than the one involving the near-mythical serial killer "Jack the Ripper". My guest, Edward Stow, believes the killer was a man named Charles Lechmere, a local East End resident who murdered in the early morning hours while on his way to his work.
Stow, creator and host of the YouTube series "The House of Lechmere", shares evidence that he believes implicates Lechmere in not only the murders of the Canonical Five, but of other women in 1880s London as well.

On this episode of the Most Notorious Podcast, was Charles Letchmeer, Jack the

0:06.3

Ripper. Now the contention is that Robert Paul actually interrupted him in the

0:12.9

act and that's why they're not on display. He pulled the dress down over the

0:19.0

abdominis to cover them up and this is the only instance where someone was seen

standing by the victim before they'd raised the alarm. In all the other cases

0:29.8

someone finds a body, they go off and find a policeman straight away or something

0:34.2

like that.

Welcome everyone to another episode of the Most Notorious Podcast, I'm Eric

1:04.8

Rivenes. Thank you for joining me. It's so great to have as my guest today, Edward

Stowe. He is a Jack the Ripper expert. He was the main advisor on the

Jack the Ripper, the new evidence or Jack the Ripper, the missing evidence.

1:43.0

Okay, good to clarify. So when did you first become a student of this case?

1:52.4

Well, in depth about 10 years ago, I've had an interest in it, more superficial

1:58.5

interest in it since I was a child, but I really got into it properly about 10

2:03.4

years ago in detail, which was actually a consequence of my partner being

2:10.9

interested in her family, her family history, and always googling her

2:17.8

families, her different families, her uncle, different names in her family.
