She said he used to stay out until the early hours of the morning regularly. They moved to America in 1891. Lucy reported that during an argument once, Klosowski told her he meant to kill her, cut off her head and bury her. She left him.

One day he found out his wife was secretly working as a prostitute. He was known to suffer from paranoia. He left England for good in late November 1888. He had lots of money, and was very clever. He moved around a lot and whenever he did he changed names and wore different styles of clothes. Police found it hard to keep up with him.

5 Prince Albert Victor Age: 23 at the time of murders Possible Crucial Information: He was the grandson of Queen Victoria. Joseph Sickert came forward in the 1960’s and said his father had told him the following. Prince Albert Victor was said to have been looked after by a close friend of the Royal Family; Walter Sickert. Whilst under Sickert’s care the Prince met Annie Mary Crook a poor young girl, but he fell in love with her, married her and began living with their child Alice. When the Royal Family found the Prince was living with a poor girl in the East End they ordered that this must be stopped. Annie was taken away but Alice escaped as a toddler with her nanny, (the last victim) Mary Kelly. It was said that Mary Kelly told her friends; Mary Anne Nichols, Annie Chapman and Elizabeth Stride. They were all murdered as a cover up by the Royal Family. Catherine Eddows often called herself Mary Kelly (this is fact) and he murder of Eddows was a mistake. The real Mary Kelly was found soon after and disposed of.
