    Walter Sickert has been implicated as a potential identity for Jack the Ripper due to folklore and theories about the killer's identity. Aaron Kosminski is also considered a suspect by some sources. There are many theories about who Jack the Ripper was, ranging from famous artists to Polish immigrants to royal family members. The letter claiming to be from "Jack the Ripper" that originated the name has questionable authenticity. Jack the Ripper likely targeted London's East End because it was a poor, immigrant neighborhood seen with contempt and was thus an area where he could commit horrific crimes without detection.

    fact:
    The large number of theories about the identity of the murderer, ranging from the famous
    Victorian painter Walter Sickert to a Polish immigrant and to the grandson of Queen Victoria,
    have contributed to a culture of folklore and macabre entertainment.
    The name of "Jack the Ripper" originated in a letter allegedly written by the murderer in 1888.
    However, the authenticity of the letter has been much debated.
    The East End was a district seen by the respectable society of London, either out of compassion
    or contempt. Despite being an area where qualified immigrants, mainly Jews, and Russians,
    arrived to start a new life and build businesses, the neighborhood was known for extreme
    poverty, violence and crime. According to modern criminal investigations, this was the main
    reason why Jack the Ripper chose that specific area to commit his horrific crimes.
