The brutality and surgical precision of the killer's knife made life in victorian England perilous, particularly for those working the sex trade and the fact that his victims were prostitutes, meant they would take him to the very places where they knew that they were safe at this point, the identity of the ripper will probably never be uncovered with any certainty but his legacy as one of history's most violent serial killers remain secure even with a corpse, an approximate time of death and knowledge of the weapon.
凶手的刀的殘忍性和手術的精確性使維多利亞時代的英國生活變得危險,特別是對那些從事性交易的人來說,他的受害者是妓女,這意味著她們會把他帶到她們知道自己安全的地方,在這一點上,開膛手的身份可能永遠不會被揭開,但他作為歷史上最暴力的連環殺手之一,即使有一具屍體、一個大致的死亡時間和對武器的瞭解,他的遺產仍然安全。
