The only thing I have to say about this theory is to debunk it. I don't think there's any way Chapman was the Ripper. Here's why not. (a) he would have just come over from Poland. He wouldn't have had a good handle on the English language, needed to write the Ripper Letters, with smallintricacies and figures of speech; (b) although executed later, why would he have changed his M.O. from mutilation to poisoning? Not many murderers make that big of a change.
