Sometimes the members of the Abbey find a killer they respect and invite him to join — in part to get him off the streets and into some “productive” killings, in part to honor his twisted talents. In 1888, a group from the Abbey found Saucy Jack himself. The story is common currency among the Abbey: he joined, he was good at killing beasts, but then he got bored. When he went back to killing prostitutes, the Abbey ended up hunting him down and killing him. Sometimes, someone finds out about the Abbey’s connection with the Ripper and tries to blackmail them, but it never works out; would-be blackmailers go the way the Ripper did.
