Jack the Ripper reveal? Experts believe disputed Victorian diary said to belong to killer is genuine

The identity of Jack The Ripper may have finally been confirmed, new evidence suggests.

Researchers now say that they have proven the authenticity of a much-disputed Victorian diary supposedly written by the notorious murderer.

Previously, doubt had been cast on the legitimacy of the diary by James Maybrick, a nineteenth-century cotton merchant from Liverpool. The diary was published in 1993, more than 100 years after his death.

The Telegraph reports that, in the 9,000-word volume, Maybrick confessed to the brutal murders of five women in the East End of London, as well as one prostitute in Manchester.

"I give my name that all know of me, so history do tell, what love can do to a gentleman born. Yours Truly, Jack The Ripper," he signed off, at the end of the diary, according to The Telegraph.
