"Do you want to see your grandfather?" "Yes." *long box on table* "There's grandpa." The trauma that would have caused someone is crazy. That was such a mean thing to do.

[@lilgit9969]

Doing that to her 6 year old son sounds like his mother was a sadistic narcissist.

[@bleed_the_freak]

I was very close to my grandpa growing up. He stepped in after my father kicked me and my mom out after almost beating her to death when I was a year old. Never paid child support. My brothers and I grew up very poor even though my mom worked two jobs. My grandpa was that fatherly figure I never had, buying me school supplies and food for the house. Taking me on trips to escape my reality and struggles. I was waiting on him to pick me up one day to go on our monthly trips to his cabin, when I got the call that he had passed away and the next I saw him was at his funeral. I was young and had no way of understanding how one day he was here and the next he was gone. I'll never forget when my aunt made me walk up to his coffin and kiss him goodbye.. that feeling of cold on your lips stays with you forever. I once again felt abandoned and was confused about what I did wrong to push those I loved away. As I got older I came to learn that my grandpa had terminal cancer and wanted to protect us grandchildren by not telling us. Everyone needs time to prepare that kind of lose so they're not confused and blame themselves.

They thought he was just drunk and making up stories, and at one point even disconnected their phone lines. Then a detective was informed about it by a nurse whose husband was a PC. The detective revealed to Carl that the nightmares were real and really did happen to him 😭😞 I think he must have been suffering from PTSD 😕

I used to work with a bloke who lived next door to Nilsen. He said he often used to wonder why Mr Nilsen was outside having a bonfire of his clothes at three in the morning. Said he was, otherwise, fairly normal in his habits.......

[@TheDillinger22]

I met Dennis Andrew Nilsen in Brisbane Australia in 1973 .. after walking home from work at the Evans Deaken Shipyard at Kangaroo Point, I got to the Brunswick HotelJPG in the Brisbane suburb of New Farm at around 4:20 that afternoon. The pub was fairly crowded, there were some ppl I knew including an Englishman from London who had done a bit of time, who was in company with DAN who he introed as a former London policeman. I said "you were a Bobby then" and asked if they had known each other in Blighty, they said they had not .. I had seen video interviews and photos of Dennis Andrew Nilsen over a period of yrs, without ever recognizing him until I realized he was the man in a KZbin thumbnailJPG. He looked to be aged about halfway between the clean shaven, dark eyed dichotomization shotJPG taken during his military service, and the Murderpedia shotJPG shows him in a collar and tie. He told me he had served in the British Army in Aden and said he was into underground gladiatorial contests, whether as an observer or as a participant he never made clear .. he was a fairly big strong boned type and gave the impression escaping his clutches would be difficult. I did not much like the way he looked at me as though I were a slab of meat, and it was because of that and because of the shady rep of his companion, I departed the pub a short time later I guess the period was after Nilson left the Metropolitan Police in 1973, and before he took up employment with the Civil Service in 1974. The person in the pub with Dennis Nilsen was a below average height fellow named Peter, who was working as a painter who I had met in the pub a few times before. He was a fairly good humored type who said he had a hard time in prison because of his English accent, which to the other crims sounded like the screws who were mostly Englishmen. The day he was with Dennis Nilson was a Friday, when I went back into the pub the following Tuesday he was there without Nilson, when I suggested he join me he was rude .. I drank my drink and got out of the place like I had on the previous occasion, I never saw him again. Two days later on the Thursday came a news report a man's body had been found in his New Farm flat, I immediately thought of Peter the rude English painter, as well I surmised he had become a victim of his friend Dennis Nilson. The police never launched an investigation, eventually assuring the public that since there were no signs of forced entry, and no suspicious marks on the deceased's body it was a natural death .. the day I met Dennis Nilson in the pub he came right up close. I knew he was an ex London Policeman he looked very strong and his profile suggested he was gonna place me in a policeman's arm lockJPG, which is a wrestling move that can quickly be turned into a sleeper holdJPG, which will cause death if held for long enough by an experienced assailant. Suppose he killed his man in Brisbane in 1973 and the rest of his victims by the same method.

[@TheDillinger22]

*Part 2* - After running into Peter the Painter in the pub on the Tuesday afternoon following meeting Nilsen in his company the Friday before, sometime around 6:20 am the following Wednesday morning when I left the digs I was in at the lower end of the New Farm peninsular in Brisbane there was a bus coming. Since the fare to where I had to get off then walk across the Story Bridge to work at the Evans Deaken shipyard was only 10 cents I went aboard, despite it was the wrong bus which went the long way 'round, thus very shortly I realized I could have walked the distance as usually did in less time .. no matter. When the bus turned back onto Brunswick Street and proceeded to the next stop outside the NF Police Station looking out the front window of the bus, I saw DAN walk out from Terrace Street where PtP lived and head across Brunswick Street to the next bus stop near the pub, I was in the standing section of the bus which was by then almost full. DAN got on at the bus stop and proceeded to the same standing section of the bus .. he recognized me and I asked him if "he had stayed at Peter's place" he said "no," I said "did you get a flat up there" he said no to that as well .. that Peter's body had been discovered inside his Terrace Street flat was on the evening news the next day. MapPNG. It was initially reported as murder, however on the evening news Friday came a statement it was a natural death. According to pub scuttlebutt Peter's neighbors knew Nilsen had been visiting and was present in the flat with him on the Tuesday night, they heard a quantity of thumping and banging and were aware Nilsen had left the flat alone on the Wednesday morning, and that there had been only silence since. It was they who notified the police who entered the flat and found the body .. Queensland has a long history of stymied police investigations they let him get away with it, the ppl in the district were up in arms when Nilson was not arrested! Dennis Andrew Nilsen is not the only one I recognized off of a YT thumbnailJPG, in Nimbin, New South Wales in about 2009 I purchased some marijuana from a dude who introed himself as Israel Keyes, the bag I bought at cost had a stone in it to make up the weight. He is thought responsible for as many as eleven murders in the US, and fits the bill for a double murder at an isolated farmhouse in Northern NSW at around the same time, he committed suicide in prison in Anchorage Alaska Dec. 2012 while awaiting trial for murder.

[@abrahamulagay4495]

I think, killing for company needs a name in psychology, it seems like a some kind of personality disorder. The problem is that there has been only two among the history of serial killers, the other one was Jeffrey Dahmer. I guess it can simply be called killing for company syndrome.

Psycopathy... It's simply the lonliness thing ever. You're sitting on a pebble going through space. It's like astronauts that look down at space and get that wierd feeling.

I agree it was about control that he wanted to keep the bodies around. He could move them where he wanted and had their rapt, undivided attention for his expoundings.

He should of stayed as the actor who portrayed Hannibal Lecture in the film Manhunter by a young American director called Micheal Mann. The film was based on Red Dragon. The first instalment of the Hannibal Lecture trilogy. A few year's before the silence of the lamb's. His portrayal of him is Way more sinister and in the role than Tony Hopkins. Not belittling Hopkins. But if you knew AH's career as an actor I really couldn't believe his portrayal. Hammy? But yes. Brilliant. If it isn't a serious historian to scare say an the american audience say. Because my word that book is Dark. What have I just ran on about? I'm just off to get some help hopefully. Um...

Just like anything, the randomness of human genetics, blended to what happens during your life (such as trauma, head injury, $exual trauma, etc.) can create just about anything you could dream up. The scary part is, that by proving trauma or genetics may have contributed to the murder or whatever, the laws may change someday.

[@samdoors5132]

Whatever a child is exposed to up to the age of six will most likely determine what kind of person they are going to turn out to be. I can testify to the fact that that is true because me being born in 1960 in Los Angeles, put me in contact with lots of people, including my own weird family. My oldest brother was born in 1950 was physically abused by my father not sexually, though created a son that would commit a murder, a horrendous murder. My mother did not protect my brother, from my father, but she would show him how to hurt somebody. They picked on him again so she gave him a sharp can opener when he was eight and told him to use it next time which he did so he would end up being raised by the system, starting at the age of eight. Anyways, a whole lot, more madness to that story and many other stories of people I knew that were abused in those days and became the worst of the worst.

I believe the British men are more on point, the retired police chief, and the other fella with glasses (bald on top) than the American dude, psychological forensics, with the white hair and white mustache.

I’m shocked this guy let the man go that was with him for 18 months. One thing I must agree with that guy named Carl is, I feel terribly sorry for his mama.!!! For bringing this monster into the world. Very sad. It’s almost just like the luck of the draw. Sadly and unfortunately.

[@colinluckens9591]

Sounds like his mother could be a little sadistic too, with that "Do you want to see your grandfather?" jibe though....

[@PosthumousAddress]

I think both Nilsen and Dahmer lied through their teeth about "wanting company". Dahmer didn't just want them not to leave, he wanted to murder them, dominate them, mutilate them, desecrate their bodies. He was very into dark horror stuff, wanted to have a skull throne in his house, and even after going to prison loved the fan mail he received. He just seemed very plausible in his interviews, and not a bad looking guy, that's how he trapped them! (And convinced the cops to put the 14 yr old boy back into his clutches)

[@sammidaniels4405]

Before Dahmer, they were Dennis Nilsen

Nope, technically, they were killing at the same time across the pond even though Dahmer was 15 years younger. And Dahmer had his first victim in June 1978 while Nilsen had his in December 1978. The odd difference (besides Nilsen not eating his victims) is that neighbors noticed the smell from Dahmer's apartment, but Nilsen's neighbors didn't.

[@milodemoray]

Broken, twisted gene's, not born evil... This is so far from correct that it's not even funny. Nilson's own mother appears to be a real peach of a human being. What other horrors from Nelson's past were perpetrated by his own mother? Nature vs. nurture? I think what we have here is first of all, Denis Nilson was a broken little boy who grew into a monster. The nurturing of this broken little boy appears to have been at the hands of a real cruel individual. Broken biologically, then "nurtured" in the way he apparently was, only served to produce the monster he became. Born evil, no, broken, most certainly.

[@ur.localcrazy]

Some people are just born evil. Alot of us suffer abuse. Myself included I had a real shitty childhood won't go into details here. And 2 years ago escaped an 11 year extremely abusive relationship. We choose what we do. And I most certainly would never hurt anyone. I could and use alot of excuses to make people think aww she had it so bad. But myself and plenty of others whom are abused do not kill. We have a choice. Always.

[@milodemoray]

@@ur.localcrazy Many of us have suffered, many more have been driven to drugs, alcohol and all manner of things. Others have been driven to suicide, and others lash out. I have lashed out in the past, and believe me, I did not give a damn for the consequences. Others, like Nilsen went even further. There was no anger, no rage, no fear, just him making his victim become a part of him. In my life, I can count on one hand, the people, I would destroy if I saw them anywhere near my home. As you say, we do have choice, and we do make choices but I am not so sure how close you ever came to actually ending your abusive relationship. And when I say ending, I really mean ending it forever. No one is born evil. Many are born broken, many more are even broken by the very people who were meant to protect, and nurture them. Then, many of these broken people go on to become a success, but others, no, because what afflicts them is so much worse, and you cannot comprehend it unless you yourself experience it. I say again, no one is born evil, broken, yes, ruined even more by their parents, and completely misunderstood by everyone, and then one day we see something in the news and then the know it alls come crawling out of the woodwork.

[@ur.localcrazy]

@@milodemoray I am sorry you suffered also. Life can be really cruel. I was driven to alcohol. Was an alcoholic for 15 years. Then for 10 didn't touch a drop. Even intoxicated I couldn't. And believe me when I say in my head I had finished it several times. But still could never. I get having an excuse and back story and snapping and doing it once. But numerous times there are no excuses for.

[@milodemoray]

@@ur.localcrazy I apologize if I came over hard, or argumentative. Multiple murderers are often so broken that they cannot be fixed. Worse, even with treatment there will be lapses. Unfortunately, society is all too often too busy to even see what is before their eyes. The condemnation, and uncaring attitudes also do not help. Just as with children born with various health issues, will need to be taken care of for life, these "impaired, or broken" people mostly slip between the cracks. People like us though either don't know what we are getting into, or as with myself, believe we can help. My journey has been such that I have studied this subject, and am studying it still. In my time I have worked with many, and I have learned the sad fact that most of it is still ignored socially. In your case, I commend you for not crossing that line. For me, having my date with destiny as early in life as I did, and then having even more abuse shoved down on me in my formative years, inspired an anger that eventually grew into hate. Worse than that, it felt as if there were someone else also along for the ride, constantly prodding me. I grew cold, disillusioned and uncaring. This grew, and grew, and grew until the day when I crossed the line. Did I choose that? Did I even understand where my road was leading? Does anyone? In that moment, I was still me, I knew what I was doing, and I did not care. Society believes such behavior is reprehensible, psychology believes it is broken, and that they know how to fix it. Yet, I say, no one, who has not been there physically and mentally, can ever claim to know how, or why. No one can say they understand the impulses, or the compulsion of the moment, unless they too have been there. Again, I say, no one is born evil notwithstanding what the Bible says, that all have fallen short... No one is born evil, what they are is born, and bred broken. In some cases worse than others, unimaginably worse. And society? False failing smiles, or complete irritation that they actually have to stoop to the level of reaching out to help.
