Thomas Neill Cream, Scottish-Canadian serial killer (b. 1850)
Thomas Neill Cream (27 May 1850 – 15 November 1892), also known as the Lambeth Poisoner, was a Scottish-Canadian medical doctor and serial killer who poisoned his victims with strychnine. Over the course of his career, he murdered up to ten people in three countries, targeting mostly lower class women, prostitutes and pregnant women seeking abortions. He was convicted and sentenced to death, and was hanged on 15 November 1892.

Unsubstantiated rumours claimed his last words as he was being hanged were a confession that he was Jack the Ripper – even though official records state he was in prison in Illinois at the time of the Ripper murders.
