In Sept 2014, an amateur detective named Russell Edwards created a stir by claiming that the true identity of a notorious person was Aaron Kosminski, a 23- year old Polish immigrant, who had come to England in the 1880s. He reached this conclusion after testing DNA from a blood-stained shawl. (This is also detailed in an upcoming book.)

Whose identity does Edwards claim to have discovered?
