Stewart P. Evans is the man who brought Jack the Ripper suspect Francis Tumblety to public notice when, in 1993, he acquired a letter, written by Chief Inspector John George Littlechild, in which he replied to a question from the journalist George Sims seeking information about a particular suspect.
Stewart subsequently published his discovery and his extensive research in the book "The Lodger - The Arrest & Escape Of Jack The Ripper", which made public a forgotten and missed suspect, Dr. Francis Tumblety.
In this video Stewart discusses how he came by the letter, and presents the case against Tumblety.
But Stewart's contribution extends far beyond Tumblety.
He is also the instigator and co-author of "The Ultimate Jack The Ripper Sourcebook", which brings together all the official reports on the case that are still in existence, and a book that should be on the book shelf of every student of the case.
When Stewart was 18, he came to London and walked around the murder sites to photograph them, and those photographs created a record places such as 29 Hanbury Street, Durward Street and Mitre Square as they were at the time, thus providing an historical record of the murder sites before they disappeared from the London skyline. He kindly made those photographs available to be used in this video.
This video, therefore, features an interview with a man whose contribution to Jack the Ripper and true crime studies is immeasurable.
