Biography[edit | edit source]
Working for the Metropolitan Police Service, Detective Murphy was a good friend of Sergeant Frederick Abberline. At some point in his life, he got a tattoo of a small green cross at the base of his neck. In 1868, he received a tip about several disappearances occurring around Fleet Street in Whitechapel. Murphy went to investigate and questioned the locals, namely, the florist Stephen Bean, the barber Feeney Sodd, the baker Moffat, and the leatherworker Tobias Jeffers.[1]
Unbeknownst to him, Tobias was behind the disappearances. Feeling that the detective was coming too close to the truth, Jeffers killed Murphy, flayed him, and made a handbag out of his skin. His bones were then ground up into manure, and his meat was sold to the bakery for the creation of meatpies. The British Assassins Evie and Jacob Frye investigated Detective Murphy's disappearance. After questioning several suspects and uncovering many clues all around Fleet Street, they managed to successfully accuse Jeffers of his crimes and have him arrested by the authorities.[1]
