In this video, we explore the Macnaghten Memoranda, a pivotal document in modern Jack the Ripper investigations, written by Melville Macnaghten. The memoranda, created in the late 19th century, outlines Macnaghten's views on the Whitechapel murders and names the three primary suspects he believed were most likely responsible for the grisly killings that shocked London in 1888.

We look at the lives of these suspects, analyse the evidence that led Macnaghten to identify them as prime suspects in the Jack the Ripper case. Was Macnaghten's theory as compelling as some believe? Was he right in his assessment, or did he fall victim to biases and assumptions? This video takes a closer look at the Macnaghten Memoranda, and how it shaped future theories about the identity of the Ripper.

If you're interested in true crime, serial killers, and the history of Victorian London, this video will offer an in-depth examination of one of the most influential documents in the Jack the Ripper case. Join us as we assess Macnaghten's suspects and the lasting legacy of the Whitechapel murders.
