Frederick Deeming
While Frederick Deeming was on death row in Australia. His prison mates told the Australian authorities that Deeming admitted of being Jack the Ripper. However, the Australian authorities didn't believe them and thought that Deeming was just trying to avoid his execution. Deeming was suspected of being Jack the Ripper not only because the way he killed his victims is similar to Jack the Ripper but also his whereabouts during the time of the murders committed by Jack the Ripper. The differences is Deeming's victims are his own family while Jack the Ripper's victims are prostitutes even Deeming never mutilated his victims bodies and even tried to hide their bodies while Jack the Ripper mutilated his victims and didn't try to hide their bodies. Few eyewitnesses identified Deeming as the suspect that they saw near the locations where Catherine Eddowes and Elizabeth Stride were murdered. It was also confirmed that Deeming asked a man to help clean his knives when he arrived in London before the murders committed by Jack the Ripper. Deeming also had a connection with Catherine Eddowes one of the victims of Jack the Ripper.
