On September 26th, 1888, Dr. Thomas Barnardo, a street preacher and social reformer focused on helping the children of London’s East End visited a lodging house in White Chapel. He wanted to talk to the women of the area to find out more about their lives and needs. What he heard, as he listened to some of the women talking around the kitchen table, was terror. Terror over the Whitechapel murders - and fear any one of them could be Jack the Ripper’s next victim. In fact, one of them would be.
In part two of Killer Trip’s journey to Jack the Ripper’s London, we get to know the women Jack hunted, and explore how their deaths, and the evolution of London will forever be linked.
