English: Jack the Ripper is an alias given to an unidentified serial killer, though through recent DNA testing is speculated to be a Polish immigrant named Aaron Kośmiński, who was active in the largely impoverished Whitechapel area and adjacent districts of London, England in the late 19th century. The name is taken from a letter sent to the Central News Agency by someone claiming to be the murderer.
Français : Jack l'éventreur est un surnom donné à un tueur en sérié non identifié et qui agissait dans le quartier de Whitechapel et autres districts adjacents de Londres, à la fin du 19ème siècle en Grande-Bretagne. Ce nom est tiré d'une lettre envoyée à la Central News Agency (Agence centrale de presse) par quelqu'un se proclamant être le meurtrier.
