Content of the Lesson: WATCH our CRIME TIME series here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ave-YyTlDk Jack the Ripper was an unidentified serial killer who was active in 1888 in the impoverished areas of Whitechapel (a district of London). He was called the Whitechapel Murderer and Leather Apron. Jack the Ripper typically attacked female prostitutes who worked in the slums of London's East End. The Victorian press was breathless with horror and excitement at the brutal killings perpetrated by a man that came to be known as Jack the Ripper. Never found, he continues to haunt the British imagination to this day. As the investigation of a series of crimes in the infamous Whitechapel neighborhood slows down, Scotland Yard police receive a letter from the alleged killer who terrorized London in 1888. The popular press is shaping the evil figure of "Jack the Ripper", the first serial killer in history.
