She purchased some paintings by Walter Sickert (her suspect for Jack the Ripper), which were quite valuable in their own right, and then took them apart to test for fingerprints and DNA.

It was pretty dumb, tbh. It's been over 125 years, everything that could possibly be related to the murders or Jack the Ripper has not been preserved properly and has been handled by countless people. The DNA contamination has probably rendered any evidence worthless, so there isn't much point in destroying anything just to test for DNA.

It's the CSI effect: nobody believes anything now unless they have DNA evidence and apparently that evidence is everywhere and easy to test!

Haha, I know, right? In that video someone else linked to, they actually dusted the frame of one of the paintings for fingerprints. When you think of how many people may have handled that over the decades, it's like jesus, why bother?
