 ==Juwes are the men that will not be blamed for nothing==
-"Juwes are the men that will not be blamed for nothing" is a phrase that was discovered written on a wall in chalk near the location of one of the Jack the Ripper murders in 1888. The phrase was discovered near the body of Catherine Eddowes, one of the Ripper's victims, and was considered to be one of the few direct messages left by the killer.

-The phrase was significant at the time because it was seen as a cryptic message from the murderer, and it sparked a great deal of speculation and debate about the identity and motive of the killer. Some people believed that the phrase was a reference to the Three Juwes, a trio of Masonic characters who were popular in anti-Semitic conspiracy theories of the era. Others believed that the phrase was simply a reference to the Jewish community that lived in the East End of London at the time.

-The original investigation into the Jack the Ripper crimes was carried out by the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS), based in London, England. The investigation was led by Detective Chief Inspector Frederick Abberline, who was one of the most experienced detectives in the MPS at the time.
+The Metropolitan Police Service (MPS), which is based in London, England, carried out the initial investigation into the Jack the Ripper crimes. One of the most experienced detectives in the MPS at the time, Detective Chief Inspector Frederick Abberline, oversaw the investigation.
 The investigation involved a large number of police officers, including uniformed constables and detectives, who were tasked with patrolling the streets, conducting interviews, and gathering evidence. The MPS also called upon the services of various experts, including medical professionals and handwriting analysts, to assist in the investigation.
-Despite the large number of police officers involved in the investigation, and the significant amount of resources that were devoted to the case, the identity of the murderer was never conclusively established. The lack of concrete evidence, combined with the brutal and gruesome nature of the crimes, made it difficult for the police to make any significant progress in the case.
