[daniel-lewis-1985]

All this proves is that he had sex with her. Back then people would pay with items so that expensive looking shawl could have been his way of paying for her services.

Its highly likely he is the killer given his mental state, the fact he heard voices and ended up in a mental institution the rest of his life doesn't really go in his favour.

Its fascinating whatever the outcome that there were still cells and dna on it 124 years after it happened.

What they really need to do is exume the victims now and retest for his dna on those aswell to be really sure if its him. If they find his dna on more than 1 then obviously he's the guy but until they do its still not 100% proof he is Jack The Ripper.
