Event Details

On September 8, 1888, shortly before 6:00 AM, the body of Annie Chapman was found in the backyard of 29 Hanbury Street.

Like Nichols, her throat was cut, but the mutilations to her abdomen were far more extensive. The killer had removed her uterus, leading police surgeon Dr. George Bagster Phillips to suggest the killer possessed anatomical knowledge.
