Ep 127: ‘Women With No Voice’ – Part 2- The Five: The Untold Lives of the Women Killed by Jack the Ripper by Hallie Rubenhold

Part 2: The exploration of the lives of Elizabeth Stride and Catherine 'Kate' Eddowes, who were murdered by Jack the Ripper in 1888, begins in earnest. The Ripper mythos labels them as 'unfortunates,' which tramples on their true stories. These women were beloved daughters, sisters, students, wives, mothers, and business owners, all struggling to navigate the harsh realities of life in the East End of London during Queen Victoria's reign. They were not just victims, as history often depicts. What twists of fate led Elizabeth and Kate to end up dead on the streets of Whitechapel? Don’t miss this compelling episode, the second part of the trilogy.
