JEFFREY DAHMER

He killed 18 men before being caught. He kept the bodies of his victims lying around his home and began eating their bodies believing to possess them more completely.

He began killing at the age of 18. His first victim was Stephen Hicks who had spent the day at a rock concert. There he met Dahmer and they got on well. They stayed at Dahmer`s parents house where they had few beers and talked about their lives. When Hicks said that he had to go, Dahmer begged him to stay, but Hicks was insistent, so Dahmer made him stay by picking up a heavy dumbbell, clubbing him around the head with it then strangled him. He dragged Hick`s body into the Crawl space under the house and dismembered it with a hunting knife ( he had plenty of practice because his childhood hobby is dissecting animals.

Companion, sex and death were now placed in Dahmer`s mind. Another victim was a young male prostitute. He went back to his grandmother’s house with him to have sex in the basement. Dahmer then gave the boy a drink with a powerful sedative and made him unconscious. He then dismembered the corpse, stripped of the flesh, crushed the bones to powder and scatter the remains.

He continued his murderous career choosing good-looking males for his victims. He would offer them money for an oral sex and sometimes posing in the nude then later offering them a drink with a sleeping potion.

On 22 June 1991 he met Tracy Edwards who had just arrived from Mississippi and eventually was invited to Dahmer’s flat. When they got there, Dahmer rushed to offer him a drink. But Edwards does not like the smell of his flat, nearly causing him to puke. But then he became drowsy because of the drugged rum Dahmer offered him. He escorted Edward to his bedroom. The room was decorated with Polaroid photographs of naked young men; there were also pictures of dismembered bodies and chunks of meat. The smell in the room was sickening; the putrid aroma seemed to be coming from a plastic dustbin under the window.

He asked Edwards  to strip so he could photograph him in the nude. Edwards resisted for he was now in a panic state. Dahmer threatened, he would rip off his heart and eat it if he refuse to his request. As Dahmer reached for the camera, Edwards held his opportunity and punched Dahmer in the side of the head. He grabbed the door and run for his life.

He spotted a police car outside and informed the policemen about Dahmer’s flat. They searched the flat and Dahmer screamed like an animal.

Human meat, three human heads and a human heart was found inside his fridge. A filing cabinet contained grotesque photographs, three human skulls and a collection of bones. Two more skulls were found in a pot on the stove. Another pot contained male genitals and severed hands, while the remains of three torsos were found in the dustbin in the bedroom.

The jury found Jeffrey Dahmer guilty of 15 murders, for which he received 15 life sentences.
