Factor FACT How will this make policing the area difficult? Location & geography of Whitechapel. Maze like streets, high pollution, few street signs, noisy in the day and night, very high numbers of people. Narrow alleyways, poor lighting and complex buildings. Difficult for a new officer or someone new to H Division area. Lack of communication would make seeking help difficult. Finding or chasing suspects difficult. Difficult to see/hear/smell if anything is wrong due to the squalid conditions anyway. It was easy for a criminal to hide. A typical shift for a PC The police worked at night, questioning the local people to simply find out what they were doing. Would meet the beat sergeant who would write events in his diary. If the PC was not in his place he could be fined or dismissed. Work was boring. Police were seen as interfering and getting in the way. It would be too isolated at times. Some officers would try to avoid work due to the boredom. Pay Pay for the police what not good and the quality of police recruits could vary This meant the police skills were lacking in some areas. There were examples of sleeping in doorways, drinking in bars or just standing around chatting. Attitudes towards the police. In poorer areas like Whitechapel, the police were seen in a negative light. The police were seen as part of the government who were the ones to blame for the amount of poverty. The police could be ‘heavy handed’ (aggressive and violent). Little co-operation with the police, fewer witnesses would want to speak to the police and it would be difficult to collect information about crimes. Poverty Poverty in the poorer areas tended to lead to higher crime rates. This would mean the police are overstretched with work. Prostitution and brothels It was harder for women to find work and so many became prostitutes to survive. Some worked in brothels, others walked the streets. It was not illegal. No contraception available with women having illegal ‘backstreet abortions’. Estimated 62 brothels and 1,200 prostitutes in Whitechapel. Women at a higher risk walking the streets. The police often turned a blind eye to illegal, dangerous abortions which led to the death of even more women. Women were more vulnerable – and their addiction to alcohol also caused the police problems. Alcohol/Opium Dens Many men and women were alcoholics to overcome their terrible conditions. Alcohol was strong and cheap. Pubs and ‘Gin Houses’ on every corner which were cleaner than many homes. In 1 mile, there were over 45 pubs or gin palaces. Drunkenness led to further violence. Alcoholics turned to more crime to get their alcohol. Opium Dens were popular with some, and difficult for the police to find. Immigration There were tensions between the different nationalities – Irish, Jewish, Polish, Chinese, English. This led to further violence. Gangs Protection Rackets Gangs like the ‘Bessarabian Tigers’ were made up of immigrants from Eastern Europe. These gangs demanded protection money from local shop owners. If the owners did not pay up every week, their shop would be smashed up. Ordinary people were afraid to report these gangs as they would be attacked too. It was almost impossible to gather information to arrest any gang members. Understaffed H Division was constantly understaffed. They made little attempt to stop fights as getting involved would cause even more tension. Increased social work More laws were introduced by the government which meant the police had to deal with issues such as lunacy, litter, runaway horses, fires and accidents. This meant police were overstretched with what was expected of them and could not spend as long tackling ‘real crime’. Metropolitan Streets Act 1867 More laws about street trading, traffic and also made the muzzling of dogs compulsory. Some of these laws (such as the dog muzzling) were dropped as even respectable citizens were ignoring them. Handout with answers.

Mortimer made strenuous efforts to protect himself, but on drawing his truncheon, according to a witness, the female, Reynolds wrenched it from his hand and struck him on the side of the head with it, and another girl also hit him about his head.
