What if he were caught in the act during the murder of Mary Jane Kelly (or just afterwards), for instance? Would he still be remembered today to some extent due to the severity and gruesomeness of the crimes, as well as the letters and all other aspects of the case; or would he be largely forgotten as just another criminal of the period? What sort of impact would it have on methods of detection in policing in the years to come?
Any possible wider social impacts on Whitechapel or East London generally?
