There are many anomalies associated with the series of murders associated with the serial killer known to history as Jack the Ripper. Perhaps the most significant is that PC Neil was regarded as the first finder of the first so-called canonical victim - Mary Ann or Polly Nichols - for three days following her death in the early hours of the morning of Friday 31st August 1888. In actuality, Charles Lechmere 'found' her body a matter of minutes before PC Neil. When Lechmere eventually appeared, on Monday 3rd September, he gave the name Charles Cross.
But where was PC Neil while Polly was being murdered and while Lechmere was at the crime scene?
Could he have caught Jack the Ripper in the act?
How PC Neil conducted his beat comes under the microscope.
