Скачать или смотреть Michael Ostrog - Jack The Ripper Suspect

In 1894, Melville Macnaghten compiled a list of three suspects who the police may have considered as viable suspects for the mantle of Jack the Ripper.

One of those suspects was Michael Ostrog of whom Macnaghten wrote that he was:- " "...a Russian doctor, and a convict who was subsequently detained in a lunatic asylum as a homicidal maniac. This man's antecedents were of the worst possible type, and his whereabouts at the time of the murders could never be ascertained."

But, who was Michael Ostrog?

In 2019, Richard Jones gave a talk to the East End conference in which he charted Ostrog's criminal career whilst, at the same time, weighing up his viability as a suspect.

This video features that talk along with accompanying images that help tell the story of a suspect who, according to one newspaper, was "a fashionable rogue."
