In this episode Edward Stow examines one of the three leading police suspects named in both existing versions of the so-called Macnaghten Memorandum. It will become clear that no reliance whatsoever can be placed on the opinions and knowledge of the senior Scotland Yard Police Officers involved in the hunt for the serial killer known to history as Jack the Ripper - particularly Melville Macnaghten and Robert Anderson.

For an interesting discussion on the origins of the Macnaghten Memorandum, see this dissertation by Stewart P. Evans:
