As the book Jack the ripper, then and now told, it’s possible that the identity of Jack the Ripper was discovered, but nobody said it in public because of possible reprisals from government or monarchy if they were really involved. 

Probably the name of Jack the Ripper was only known for important policemen, but it must there any paper or document where this name is written.  However, if it exists it may is in a safety place, where only VIP persons can enter. It could be find in other left police offices or forgotten boxes, but seriously it have been written if it was finally found, although it wasn’t public.

At that époque, honour was very important, and that’s why the name was surely hidden.

The differences between London at that time and now, are overall about the area, because lots of places about London have changed a lot, like the book London then and now shows.

What’s more, recently have appeared new criminals, who called themselves as Jack the Ripper. This is the case of Stephen Griffiths, who’s the most recent criminal seemed as Jack the Ripper, and who killed prostitutes too. We’ve searched some information about it and extract our conclusions.
