 Jack the Ripper: A Suspect Guide

Vassily Konovalov

Konovalov was born in 1857 and was supposedly a junior surgeon from Torshok Russia, who in 1887 murdered a woman in Paris, five prostitutes in London during 1888, and a woman in Russia in 1891, before being finally caught and confined to an asylum. Konovalov was described as of medium height with broad shoulders and a curled and waxed black moustache. There is, however, no actual evidence Konovalov ever existed. The stories about him appear to be nothing more than another variation of the Russian secret agent sent to discredit our police force/government theory. Which like the Royal Masonic Conspiracy theory, has plagued researchers for years..
