Dear all, You may be aware that I've become involved in DNA testing a number of alleged Ripper artifacts using a new DNA fingerpritning system that has obtained DNA fingerprints from 160 year old hairs. If anyone has Ripper items, please contact me if you'd like them DNA tested. In confidence if you prefer - my email address is ian.findlay@gribbles.com.au. Now is your chance . . . Hopefully we can work together to at least try and point us in right direction. regards Ian Professor Ian Findlay |

Hi Ian, Is there any way of telling whether DNA found on a ripper artefact is brand spanking new or a hundred years old, before you start trying to identify whose it is? Love, Caz X |

Caz, Unfortunatly not before testing. The DNA fingerprinting results themselves can often (but not always) suggest very rough age e.g. old or new. Ian |
