But that's really not the point (IMO, at least).

Exactly. Also, Jack the Ripper was one of the first sexual serial killers. Like, he was cutting up the privates of these prostitutes. It got worse every time. He removed the breasts of his fifth victim and did God knows what to her other regions but the pics are disgusting. Also, read about his third and fourth murders sometime. Committed on the same night in completely different parts of the city, taunting the police with a message on the wall between the two sites, and they couldn't find him. Believe me, it's pretty odd and worth the infamy.
