Eventually, he killed through his undead wraiths and followers, the Jacksprites. (PROSE: Matrix) The Fellowship committed murders, usually women, to summon the Yssgaroth into the universe. William Blake and the Seventh Doctor saw the group's albino leader at a bordello around the time of the murder of Elizabeth Stride, the third victim. All known members were caught in a fire. (PROSE: The Pit)
Jack the Ripper was believed caught by the Silurian Madame Vastra, who proceeded to devour him. She found him "stringy, but tasty all the same". (TV: A Good Man Goes to War)
