In This Podcast we explore one of criminology's most controversial theories: Was Jack the Ripper a social revolutionary using terror to expose the horrific conditions in Victorian London's Whitechapel district?

Host Paul Stiling examines the evidence that suggests the infamous 1888 murders weren't random acts of violence, but calculated crimes designed to force British society to confront the systematic neglect of its most vulnerable citizens. From the killer's precise victim selection to the unprecedented social reforms that followed the murders, we uncover a disturbing possibility - that history's most famous serial killer might have been history's most effective social activist.

This episode features a detailed analysis of:

• The hellish conditions in 1888 Whitechapel
• The killer's sophisticated media manipulation
• The mysterious anatomical knowledge and surgical precision
• The political context and social reform movements
• The investigation's suspicious failures
• The unprecedented reforms that followed the murders
