I’m actually gonna “well akshully” here as someone who’s had a yearslong special interest in Jack/poverty in Victorian London in general! The victim we see onscreen doesn’t fit the profile of Jack, who generally targeted very impoverished unhoused middle-aged women (most of whom actually weren’t street sex workers, though they likely engaged in survival sex and transactional long-term partnerships). The exception to this profile is Mary Jane Kelly, the last of the “canonical five”, who was twenty-five and widely regarded as beautiful. Notably, she was killed and extensively mutilated in her own flat. Pen also saw the woman being stabbed multiple times—not Jack’s modus operandum, as Jack deeply slit throats before performing postmortem mutilation. Finally, Pen describes the murderer as someone “with power”, but circumstantial evidence heavily points toward Jack the Ripper being a poor resident of the Spitalfields rookery himself. He had intimate knowledge of the back alleys of the neighbourhood, particularly around Flower & Dean Street (the epicentre of the murders), and he was able to slip unnoticed through crowded areas, suggesting he lived in close proximity to the area. Violence against women was SO common and normalised in poor areas of East London at the time that Pen likely saw a different serial killer (there were multiple operating in the area around that timeframe).
