Jack the Ripper's Shadow: The Untold Story of George Lusk | The Bedside Historian #Whitechapel #JackTheRipper
Good evening, and welcome to The Bedside Historian. Tonight, we descend into the autumn of 1888, into the fog-shrouded streets of Whitechapel, where terror walked freely and one ordinary man became forever linked to history's most notorious killer.
George Lusk was a builder, a chairman of the Whitechapel Vigilance Committee, a man who dared to stand against the darkness. And for his courage, Jack the Ripper chose him—sending a package that would mark him forever. Inside: half a human kidney and a letter signed "From Hell."
This is not just another Ripper story.
