Constable Guarding Jack the Ripper Knife Exhibit in London
London police museum keeper Donald Rumbelow guards the infamous Jack the Ripper knife, a late 19th century post mortem blade once used in East End slayings. Rumbelow backs Montague Druitt as the likely killer, noting Yard records support but do not prove the theory, and suggests the evidence was destroyed.
