In the first half, researcher Russell Edwards discussed the mystery of the Jack the Ripper case, and DNA results from a sole piece of physical evidence said to have survived from one of the murders of five Whitechapel women by the Ripper in 1888. Edwards claims to have definitive evidence linking the infamous killer to a shawl found at the murder scene of Catherine Eddowes, the fourth victim of the Ripper. Edwards purchased the shawl at an auction in order to have it further studied. He emphasized the significance of the shawl's provenance, explaining how it was passed down through generations before he acquired it. The shawl had blood spatters on it, consistent with a grisly murder, and it was possibly deliberately left at the crime scene.
Edwards worked with molecular biologist Dr. Jari Louhelainen, who conducted DNA tests on the shawl and found that DNA extracted from it matched a living descendant of Eddowes. Further, it was concluded that the shawl did not belong to the victim but was from Eastern Europe and used by the killer to wipe up bloodstains. Edwards knew that one of the suspects named by Scotland Yard was a Polish barber named Aaron Kosminksi, and Louhelaninen found that a female descendant of Kosminski's sister had a DNA match with the garment. Kosminksi suffered from "mania or schizophrenia" and was said to exhibit an intense hatred of women. He was eventually incarcerated in an asylum due to violence against his relatives, but Edwards believes that he was never held accountable for the Ripper murders because his family had powerful connections within the Freemason community.

In the latter half, the founder of Targeted Justice, Dr. Len Ber, addressed the issue of Havana Syndrome, also known as Non-Kinetic Brain Injury (caused by directed pulsed electromagnetic energy exposure). He shared his own harrowing personal experience with the condition that has plagued him since mid-2019. He described the symptoms as "extremely unpleasant," characterized by a unique "deafening sound" and a "vibrating pressure" felt over the head and body. Diagnosed with traumatic encephalopathy and experiencing progressive cognitive decline, he noted, "I have changes on the qualitative EEG that basically show disruption in every major neural network in my brain." This debilitating condition has left him on disability, marking him as possibly "the first civilian on disability due to Havana syndrome." He said he experiences attacks "multiple times a day" and often hears voices that he drowns out by listening to audio on headphones.
Dr. Ber expressed frustration over the FBI's refusal to investigate despite his reaching out to his congressional representatives. Discussing the potential origins of the attacks, he speculated that they're a type of experimentation using advanced technologies possibly involving U.S. government agencies, foreign countries, or private corporations developing directed energy weapons. He suggested that the targeting of individuals could be part of a larger strategy for societal control, asserting, "the ultimate goal of this program is for everybody to be targeted in some way, [or] at least monitored." Ber also reflected on the psychological toll of these experiences, as many victims struggle to convince medical professionals of their plight, often leading to further feelings of isolation and despair.
