Thanks. The quality is great.

[@kimberlynance2711]

Idk care what anyone says. For a person to do what Dahmer did has to be mentally ill. Sad he didn’t have parents and family that recognized his issues from a young age. I’ve seen interviews of his father and he was one step above his son. To bad his parents and family didn’t get their heads out of the sand - he needed help and there wasn’t anyone to make him get it.

[@stevensonjc21]

Those cops deserve to lose their job because THEY DIDNT EVEN RUN DAHMERS NAME.They gave a unresponsive naked young looking boy with no ID back to him without even running his name or taking him to the hospital. One running of Dahmers name would’ve brought up the fact that he was a CONVICTED sex offender and that would’ve been it. This pisses me off so much. So many people failed the community

This prosecutor kept the closing argument respectful, stuck to the facts, connected the dots, and didn't dramatize anything.

[@Girl-101]

Sometimes dramatization in the court with cases like this, can cause more of an impact, I think that because it was obvious that Jeff was getting a guilty, then the prosecutor didn’t need to act the words he was saying, out loud, but I love a dramatic prosecutors statement & especially as someone as heinous as Dahmer, it hits more emotionally.

Right! They weren’t even connecting the dots of multiple men from Club 219 were being witnessed getting into cabs or busses with this white male and never being seen again. One canvass of the gay clubs would have yielded so much information that it’s clear they did not do it. They didn’t care about those gay men. Especially cause so many of them were gay BLACK men. Yup, I said it. Where’s the lie? Dahmer had been accused of drugging a guy who testified at trial that immediately after getting out of the hospital he went to the police station and told them where Dahmer lived. He was drugged then put on a bud where someone noticed his drugged state and bought him to the hospital. He was robbed of cash and jewelry . So many men go missing from club 219 and here they have a guy who is drugging people from that club and you investigators don’t take him in for questioning? They weren’t looking for those men, they didn’t care for those men. They had blinkers on to anyone who tried to warn them about Dahmer cause he was a white man amongst lower income blacks. So clearly THEY we’re the problem. My blood boils every time I think about it.

[@robinc6288]

He contadicts himself very early on by saying this wasn't about dead bodies and that was a second option if he didn't get what he wants. He then says that the first guy Dahmer killed that he didn't even ask for sex so wasn't turned down. In my opinion this was ALL about the dead bodies. The guy was clearly obsessed with that and a full blown necrophiliac. He even said that he didn't enjoy the actual killing and didn't want them to suffer although later on he obviously didn't care by trying to keep them alive and they suffered badly. Early on though he did make it quick or drugged them before killing them. I'm not saying anything in his defence, just that the prosecution contradicted himself. I also don't think Dahmer was legally insane because he was able to hide his crimes, knew right from wrong and able to work a job. An insane person (in the eyes of the law) doesn't hide their crime because they don't think they did anything wrong. He's clearly got mental issues up the wazoo but insane to the point you won't be held responsible for your crimes clearly not.

[@jeromegarcia5396]

I caught that contradiction too, you can tell he was laying it on thick for the first case outside his jurisdiction, so no real personal knowledge and in doing so revealed the heart of the case, his desire for dead body sex... This wasn't about sex like all people, this was obviously different do to the obvious trial because his acts... I also question the occult timing in the claim, they say that came later... Lol umm well he showed signs at day one as well... I always question prosecution because they want the story to be the most felt in everyway by adding explosion and fire to probably a very basic situation... But ole boy was definitely a predator day one because he didn't ask, he just did... So yeah this introduction is the nicest I've even heard someone explain a serial killer, after this I picture Dahmer with pigtails and shy, not the land demon he truly was... Gesh

Robin you got it wrong. First victim started talking about girls then Jeff realized victim wasn't homosexual and killed him in order to have sex with him.

Ted killed young attractive women and Jeff killed young attractive men.

He wasn't a psychopath or sociopath, this has been established by all the evaluators and mental health professionals that examined him. Psychopaths are incredibly rare and they aren't all serial killers either. There are people who have bipolar who kill, Borderline Personality Disorder, schizophrenia and many others.

[@brandimyhren6317]

It’s the same story with most serial killers. They do it because they need too. Most attacks aren’t planned but they head out knowing they will act if opportunity presents itself. It’s because they are driven by their urges desires and they are risk takers and most people are to dumb to realize what their intuition is telling them not to do.

[@simplelifedays3692]

I respectfully disagree. Dahmer didn't do this because he needed to, he did it because he wanted to and found it easy to do so.

[@stevensonjc21]

@@simplelifedays3692 this. It was not a compulsion that overpowered him. In fact, he drank excessively to build up the courage in order to do it. The bottom line is the fucktard was greedy. He didn’t want to reciprocate the partners sexually or VERBALLY ASK AND RECIEVE CONSENT for whatever his kink were. So he chose to drug his victims and take advantage of them. Then, when the drugs were bound to wear off, he knew the victims would be incredibly angry and notice that they were drug and He feared a confrontation. He didn’t want to have to fight or even be yelled at/turned into the police, so he chose to strangle his victims. Then progressively he chose to use more degrading means to incapacitate them. It was all this progressive escalation. The only thing true is that while this was premeditated, it for damn sure a crime of opportunity. If the victims had their own car, he could magically control himself and NOT take them back to his place? Why? Cause the vehicle sitting around his apartment would for sure tie back to him. He often stopped the cab or bus blocks away from His apartment and took off routes to the place in order for the drunk men to forget their whereabouts. Almost always entered through the side of back door. I often dislike nosey neighbors but dang, thank God for Glenda Cleaveland being on to him. She was very VERY aware the a slew of men would enter Dahmers apartment, she would then hear silence, screams (cause despite Dahmers claim that he never wanted to hurt the victims, just because they were drugged on sleeping pills doesn’t mean they were startled awake once they felt someone strangling them. They would thrash, often be heavier than Dahmer and maybe overpower him and is drunk ass was sloppy and made noise. ) then after the large amount of thrash and fighting , she would he sexual noises then disgusting drunken primal screams . Days would go by where only Dahmer would emerge sans boy who entered, smell would start and like clock work, the power tools would emerge at all times at night. This is what Glenda experienced. Then to be gaslighted by cops and the building manager and Jeffery himself. Realistically since this was the midwest and early 90s , I’m sure Glenda feared that he was simply into sexual kinks and reporting him would lead to claims of homophobia.
