Ping Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Link. Interesting story. Very lucky they managed to recover an object in that condition. Am I the only one creeped out by the fact an officer decided just to bring home a bloody shawl, though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jae Onasi Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 A delayed reply--this was a fascinating article! I had read a book that Patricia Cornwell had written awhile back theorizing (incorrectly now) that Walter Sickert was the killer, but that was before this particular DNA could be extracted and studied, and perhaps before the shawl's existence was known. Writing the murder dates on the shawl was very creepy, too. Eww. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamqd Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 I caught this on the news, it would be interesting to see more cases like this re-opened and examined now technology has progressed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do, however, buy this particular story since Kosminski being the killer does add up with alot of accounts by police officers and a few of the witnesses.
