Jack The Ripper. What you should know and the recent incident!!!.

Before I start writing today, I have come to understand that some people are reading what I'm writing now at different times, it's morning in someplace, afternoon in others, and nighttime for some people.😥... Different people, different time zone, but it's good too you know. Currently, there is something called sapa in my country which I'm battling with, pray for your homeboy Fash.😫. Now back to the topic.

History repeats itself because humans fail to learn from history.

A particular name has always popped up in movies and anime I watch, like black clover and record of Ragnarok, and this name is JACK THE RIPPER, when I first heard the name, I felt it was a normally used name for a movie, but again it was repeated in other movies and this made me want to know more about the name, Jack the ripper.

Jack the ripper is the name given to a serial killer in the East end of London after a series of death of a young lady in 1888, it was said that the killer goes after prostitutes, the police started their investigation when a series of bodies were found dead in some part of the city, one interesting fact is that some of the internal organs of this victims were missing which made the police assume that the killer must have some medical experience. I'm sure you would think this would help them find the killer faster, but the investigation got tougher when bodies started appearing in different parts of country, between August to November 1888, 5 ladies lost their life to this vicious killer.

I would have assumed the killer was selling the organs to a black market for easy cash, but I doubt such a thing could be happening in that era. Well it may be happening without us knowing

The number of victims of Jack the Ripper is unknown till date, after a series of investigations, many people were arrested as suspects, people with medical history but there was no evidence to prove them guilty. Till date, the identity of Jack the Ripper was never discovered.

Current incident!!!

Recently in my country, a body was found at the roadside in Lagos state, after the body was found, it was later discovered that it was the body of the missing lady.

The story.

A lady got a message from her friend on WhatsApp telling her she was suspicious of the driver's attitude, the bus was governmental, and the bus light was off, she later got a video from her friend showing the driver from the back seat, she then got another message that two more people have entered the bus, and that was the last message she got from her friend. She was declared missing because she didn't make her way home, after two weeks, she was found dead with some of the body parts missing, the bus driver was declared wanted, the search for him became intense and he was found, after much questioning, he said he didn't know anything about it.

The bus driver said, after the other two individuals entered the bus, they pointed a gun at him, and ordered him the place he should drive to, when he got to a particular location, the guy went ahead to drag the lady out of the bus, he said he was helpless, he saw them dragging her from the bus, he thought she was holding on to something inside the bus, so he drove off thinking she was still inside the bus. That was his side of his story.

Now, do you think he is innocent, to me, I don't, I don't even believe a single word he said, questions like, why didn't he report to the nearest police station? Why did he wait for two weeks? why is he just talking after he was apprehended?. There are still so many unclear things, but one thing I hate the most is a human that takes another human life.

Thanks for reading, I hope I didn't spoil your day with my write-up. Good night from here. You all should be safe out there.
