Casebook Message Boards: Ripper Suspects: Specific Suspects: Contemporary Suspects [ 1888 - 1910 ]: Kosminski, Aaron: Archive through August 23, 1999

Without giving away too much about the location (which we don't really need to know)-what kind of place is Kosminski buried in; traditional Jewish graveyard, potter's field, or so on? Is he buried with or near other members of the family? Is there anything interesting on the headstone? Also, would any vandalism be behind the reported hostility of the Kosminski descendents to researchers discussed here in detail months ago (I suppose nobody can be sure)?

Traditional Jewish graveyard, Rotter. And I have no idea what motive there would have been behind vandalism, but these graveyards do have quite severe security and that alone is enough to make one sick in this day and age.

Mr.Begg,thanks.Incidentally, I've come across one of Phillip Krantz' descendents, who seems eager to answer questions about him. If you want to get in touch, please write me.

Hello All, It's a very traditional old graveyard, with no hint of vandalism (or visitors perhaps since the LWT crew!!) So unvisited that it really imparts a sad atmosphere, it is in such a poor state compared to the other stones. I end up feeling obliged to revise my conviction that it was A.K. And no, I'm not Jane Troppan? the Serial Killer. Never heard of her!!

Kinky Kosminski so loved masturbation, Didn't even care if Sir Robert were chasin' 'im! Quaffing his garbage in Whitechapel slums, Barfed on by even innumerable bums, And delecting the stink of one last rotten egg, Up walks his champion, our hero, Paul Begg. Now I've got it started, who will take up the next stanza? David

Mr Radka uses words, ...and tries to make them rhyme. But why'd he pick this subject, ...why did he waste his time? He focused on some point, ...and wrote it down in haste. But reading thru the content...well, ...there's no substitute for taste. Jon

All you men, you make me shiver, All the while you Begg to differ. If you ever think the same, That will end our little game. Love, Caz

Hello Scott: I am fascinated by your research and speculations. I have a question; do you know how Isaac and Arron died? Did they die of natural causes? Was either murdered by a fellow asylum inmate or did either escape confinment and drown himself in the Thames? "for I believe the answer lay at the bottom of the Thames"; Sir Melville Macnaghten or was it Dr. Forbes Winslow?

Hello Thom, Here's how Aaron died: Kinky Kosminski wasn't feelin' too spunky, After 45 years of spankin' his monkey. Owin' to all that pressure on 'is poor prostate, Journey 'cross the River Styyx 'e took posthaste. Deeper and deeper through the netherworld chasms, Gliding to the bottom through his oceans of orgasms, And finally alighting on the abyssal dock, Kissed his a** one last goodbye, as well as his c**k!

(re: the above) Oh good grief, if he only knew it. We can see through the facade of this poet. Same focus, same point, an obsession of his. Don't tell me, it's clear, we know who wrote this. :-) Jon

Hey Gross Poet, (Not related to Gross-Smith by any chance? ha ha) Don't beat about the bush old chap, What's eating you today? If you think KK is clean, Just say so, and go away. (Not really, I'm looking forward to similar rhymes for Tumblety, Chapman, Gull, etc etc. ;-)) Love, Caz

"BOB 'N' DON" We can talk of blood 'n' shame, When a looney-tune's t' blame, And th' public is a' hank'rin' fer th' collar; Never mind his destitution, Hyperbolic self-pollution, Lest our Matthews really loudly shout 'n' holler! Well, we found a rat to kill, Human blank t' fit the bill, And at last th' means to obviate th' courts; Forty guineas for th' Rabbi, Ought t' halt that Jewish bad eye, And a bottle of th' good stuff for th' Schwartz. Thus it was "Don! Don! Don! Book a bed in bloody Brighton for Aa-ron!" So Schwartz to score 'is liquor, Points 'is finger all the quicker, They were sharper men than we are, Bob 'n' Don.

Quick Question... if either Dad or Son Kosminski was JTR, what happened after our dear Mary Kelly died? We must account for the sudden stop. The fact that Aaron was rather loony by 1891, to me at least, indicates that he wasn't JTR. The known serial killers (bundy etc.) didn't go completely nutty, why would've Jack? Thoughts? Actualy, the idea that it was dear daddy is quite interesting.

Does anyone have know what Issac K looked like? Is there a description of him anywhere? I've been thinking about it and a Father/Son duo might work... depending on what Issac looked like. Of course my theory may be bunk... but here goes, Issac was our first Jack, then brought his son along on the night of the double event... (Aaron screwed up), then together they did Mary Kelly. Aaron, who was perhaps not quite right to begin with slowly goes mad from what happened. Father and Son end up in asylum. Thoughts?
