Sir Robert Anderson

Anderson's piece in Criminals and Crime, 1907

In 1907 Anderson wrote a piece for Criminals and Crime where he said he knew the identity of the author of the letters sent to the Central News Agency. He also went as far as saying he knew the identity of the killer and that the killer was "caged in an asylum."

Anderson's Memoirs: The Lighter Side of My Official Life

In his memoirs Anderson wrote:

Having regard to the interest attaching to this case, I am almost tempted to disclose the identity of the murderer and of the pressman who wrote the letter above referred to. But no public benefit would result from such a course, and the traditions of my old department would suffer. I will merely add that the only person who had ever had a good view of the murderer unhesitatingly identified the suspect the instant he was confronted with him; but he refused to give evidence against him. In saying that he was a Polish Jew I am merely stating a definitely ascertained fact.
