What?

Which what?

How would you even know that they were happening?

With each day that passed, he offered a new information about his knowledge of the Ripper murders.

But rather than becoming increasingly skeptical of the veracity of these claims, which they should have been, investigators, who were very eager to close this case, interpreted his statements as further evidence of his guilt.

In fact, despite a city physician declaring Brown, quote, undoubtedly insane, detectives quickly set about building their case against him and enthusiastically declared they had, quote, gathered evidence which indicates strongly that Brown is the Jack the Ripper for whom the entire police department has been searching for an entire year.

I don't know.

And remember, he's saying that most of these, he just happened upon while they were happening.

Right.

Like, what are the odds of that?

Like, come on.

Pretty low.

The majority of the case against Lawton Brown was based on a statement given to police by two women who both claimed to be his wife.

He's a philanderer.

One of them said, quote, that the whole time she had lived with him, she believed that he was the murderer.

And it was a great relief to her that he was caught and was behind bars.

Wow.

Yeah.

Brown offered nothing in response to the claims or how he was related to these two women at all, which investigators took as evidence of fact rather than evidence of mental illness.

Yeah.
