Jack the Ripper Files: Martha Tabram

S2E2: This episode is the second in our Jack the Ripper Files. Periodic future episodes will be dedicated to each of the victims and suspects of the infamous Jack the Ripper murders that took place in Whitechapel, London in 1888. In this episode we will focus on Martha Tabram, whom many was the first victim of Jack the Ripper. We will travel through the details of her very difficult life, often in and out of workhouses - including several documents that may not have been found before. Was Martha a victim of Jack the Ripper? Was it a soldier to drunk after a long Bank Holiday celebration? Join us into this deep dive into the life and death of Martha Tabram.
