Mary Jane Kelly also known as Marie Jeanette Kelly, Fair Emma, Ginger, Dark Mary, and Black Mary, is widely believed to have been the final victim of the notorious unidentified serial killer Jack the Ripper, who murdered and mutilated a minimum of five women in the Whitechapel and Spitalfields districts of London from late August to early November 1888.

Joseph Barnett was interviewed by police after he found Mary Jane Kelly's mutilated body on November 9, 1988 - and now a leading Ripper expert claims his is the 'best argued case to date'.
