Why Dexter Fans Think Jonah Mitchell Could Be the New York Ripper in Resurrection

With Dexter: Resurrection, fans of the franchise get more of Michael C. Hall as the Bay Harbor Butcher. But one mystery has them theorizing to no end. Fans are theorizing that Jonah Mitchell, the Triniti Killer’s son, is the New York Ripper in the sequel series.

Here’s what the theory suggests about Jonah being the New York Ripper in Dexter: Resurrection.

Is Jonah Mitchell the New York Ripper in Dexter: Resurrection?

The biggest mystery in Dexter: Resurrection is the identity of the New York Ripper. His acts have left the city in terror, with residents unsure of who he will strike next. While there are many theories about his identity, one particular theory has strong supporting evidence.

According to this theory, Jonah Mitchell is the New York Ripper. The name will be familiar to fans of the original series. Jonah is the son of Arthur Mitchell, the Trinity Killer from Season 4. Considering his past trauma, it is possible that he could have followed in his father’s footsteps.

In Dexter Season 4, Arthur seemed like a simple man, but to his family, he was abusive. His behavior tormented his family. As the Trinity Killer, he brought more harm than the family could handle. Jonah grew up watching his father abuse his mother and sister. After Dexter killed Arthur, his mother adopted a similarly abusive nature, which contributed to his sister’s suicide. Following his sister’s death, Jonah killed his mother during a heated argument. He then covered up the crime by blaming his father, who the police believed was missing, not dead.

Later, when Dexter reveals to Jonah that he killed Arthur, Jonah is upset that Dexter got to kill his father. In an act of revenge, Jonah attacks Dexter with a hook. This is where the theory gains traction.

Since a hook is also the weapon of choice for the New York Ripper, fans are theorizing that Jonah is the mystery killer. Although Dexter spared him years ago, Resurrection may be hinting that he has become a serial killer.

If this theory proves true, it could serve as a strong connection to the original series. Nothing has been officially confirmed yet, but this remains one of the most compelling theories.
