What was unique about Catherine's murder compared to other victims?

  • Killed indoors

  • Happened during the day

  • Outside Whitechapel

  • Within City of London

Answer

The distinctive feature of Catherine Eddowes's murder was its location within the City of London, a district governed by the Corporation of London rather than the Metropolitan Police. This jurisdictional difference impacted the response to the crime, as the City Police initially handled the investigation independently, leading to a delay in coordinating efforts with the Metropolitan Police.
