This is from an Article of New York Times 26th August 1991: Officer Gabrish, 28 years old, a patrolman for seven years, said he and the other officers believed there was a caring relationship between Mr. Dahmer and the Laotian boy and saw no reason to intervene. "We're trained to be observant and spot things," he said. "There was just nothing that stood out, or we would have seen it. I've been doing this for a while, and usually if something stands out, you'll spot it. There just wasn't anything there." There was nothing that stood out, wtf?? What about a naked human being who is bleeding?? That's normal?? They were clearly racists since most of the eye witnesses were black and so was the victim an immigrant. Sack of shits.
Dahmer was on probation prior to that Asian kid, and had the cops ran a background check they would've seen that Jeff was violating his probation. In addition, the cops would also come to find out that the Asian kid was a minor. A lot of missed opportunities
I'm curious to find out if the officers where charged, and if they are still working today or still alive? I think they need to be held accountable for their neglect to the situation and racial profiling. Even to this day, they need to be held accountable.
I've watched many documentaries about Dahmer and it was said that, sadly, at that time the police didn't care much about homosexual victims or potential victims. Allegedly that's why they didn't check properly what was going on and the kid lost his life when he was so close to being saved.
@@Miss_Wonderful1 yeah, that's pretty much it. Nobody cared what happened to social deviants or people of color. They still don't care what happens to sex workers especially if they are BIPOC.
Cops especially at that time were SUPER anti-gay and probably thought he was just a junky. I’m not forgiving it or trying to apologize for it. I’m just saying they had a bad bias and agree, if they just did their job that monster would have been caught faster. And yeah, he was a monster. I do not feel bad about this, my daughter told me that there was a monster under her bed, I checked, there wasn’t. I told her later on that people are the real monsters. I then told her about Gilgamesh and other ancient heroes, but people are what we fear. That shouldn’t be lost on us. We are all capable of doing bad things
Seems like they (the officers) didn't think of the young man as a human being, since he was an immigrant. Basically they were racists. Thankfully they weren't the ones responding the second time too.
Horrifyingly, Konerak Sinthasomphone was not "drunk" as police supposed. The neighbors' intuition that something was desperately wrong was correct: Dahmer had drilled a hole in the young man's skull and poured acid in it. He was able to run, able to spot "help"...but not able to make clear, in his traumatized and shocked state, what had happened. And so he lost his life to ghastly horror.
I read some articles that said Konerak was mute, but this was just because of the damage, the acid in his brain had caused. He also tried to get away from Dahmer, when police was on scene but the police dismissed it.
@@ursamajor6347 Had nothing to do with Konerak's race or ethnicity. The cops were virulent homophobes, and couldn't get away from the scene fast enough. There is evidence of their homophobia and zero for racism. And no, both are not one and the same; there are homophobes in every race and ethnicity on the planet.
@@ursamajor6347 ohh yes such a common example of white privilege in everyday life. A man drills a hole in a teen boys head and pours acid into the hole and the kid escapes, calls for help, seems frantic and unable to speak and is brought back. Definitely a daily occurrence in this country. Happens all the time. Yup. They just revoked Dahmers white privilege when a black man called the cops on him and finally locked him up once and for all. No more white privilege. You sound outrageous. Let the poor boy rest in peace without you trying to politicize, racialize, and every other " ize" his death. That poor young teen boy is the victim here not you. Go jump on a political post somewhere and get all the likes that you are seeking.
@@IndigoRyu Someone told me that Konerak couldn't speak the language and couldn't get the police to understand him. That obviously wasn't accurate. Though whoever told me that story also told me the cops laughed at him, which unfortunately was right.
I knew of Dahmer but never knew the details until now. Chilling, and sickening. Hard to believe a human could sink to those levels of depravity. Chillingly well narrated Paul.

@@constitution_8939 Ehh...that was all quite histrionic. It should be understood that Crowley, in very much the same manner as THE MARQUIS De SADE, was known to many by virtue of his dubious celebrity, though very few knew him personally, and fewer still possessed an incisive understanding of his eccentric theological bent. The books of history are rife with revisionist bias and propaganda, and suppositious interpretations of alleged second-hand accounts from individuals of questionable veracity. The more plausible and likely version of the story paints Crowley as a ponderous, somewhat pretentious narcissist with a varied and insatiable sexual appetite, more inconsiderate than evil, and a man who relished in his own notoriety. His mystical preoccupations were more a sarcastic criticism of Christian hypocrisy than a truly held belief or practice. No demon conjuring, no taxidermy of his mother's corpse, just a bunch of entitled, free-loving pervs being theatrical, obfusc, and self-important for fun and attention.
Same here. I've always been uninterested in the details... Other than hearing/well seeing the video of his murder... I'm not sure if I will continue this video. It's just too heart breaking and disgusting....
Y'know, when the Dahmer show came out recently, everyone was like: "OMG, you love crime stuff! You gotta see it!" and it made me sick to my core how they took something so depraved, dramatized it, made the killer into a Tumblr sexy man, and gave him a tragic backstory. That show was feeding the sick people who worship serial killers, not the ones wanting to study them. This is how you do it. Informative, not shying away from the brutality, but not sensationalizing it either. This feels far more respectful and worth people's time to watch.
I still have nightmares about the 14 year old being returned to Dahmer. I lived in Madison Wi at this time, and was only a few miles from one of the victims family. This was way to close to home, and the pain of the victim's families was horrible.
[CW: child abuse, violence, gaslighting] My mom grew up in an abusive household in the northern Midwestern US from the 1960s-1970s. She tried to tell other adults and get help so, so many times. They never listened, so she tried to run away. The police caught her and her parents pressed charges, so she had to go to court. The police and the judge all told my mom what a bad daughter she was for being ungrateful to her parents. Her parents who starved her and beat her and mentally tortured her with insults and gaslighting. The authorities can be very dismissive of people in danger if they think the people aren't important. Poor gay Asian male child? Not important to them. Poor white female child? Not important to them. I watch true crime to try to understand people like my grandparents, and all their children except my mom who have continued the cycle of abuse by conning and stealing and physically abusing other people. And I know now that their abuse continues because people don't want to hear about it. Including the police.
@@janeeyre1990 I agree with you. I wish things were different, and your mother should not have had to suffer the torture she was forced to. The only thing I can say is that now people do talk about being abused, but the world could be a much better place.
The trial happened when I was a young child and what I recall the most was watching the sister of one of the victims scream at Dahmer in court. Her reaction haunted me because I didn't quite understand what he'd done but I knew whatever it was had hurt that woman terribly. I don't think Dahmer was insane. He knew exactly what was doing and he loved every moment. Some people are just mean.

Just seeing fan art and people raving about this guy on the internet really kind of brings up a level of disgust and anger for me to these people. Granted, it's not only Dahmer but other murderers as well, but it really begs the question of is it just levels of stupidity or depravity. I feel bad for the people who have their families or friends murdered by these guys, only to see other people worship them for it.
They are so far removed from reality that they imagine romance between these killers. I think to them it is harmless fun or they are trying really hard to be edgy and provocative.
I think he adds a lot to our understanding of humanity but not the good side of humanity - the sick and perverted side. He's the poster boy for horrible and barbaric practices towards his fellow man. While he sickens me to the core however, I see the merit in studying him and wish he had been kept alive - solely for the reason that there must be things we could document through experiments and studies on Dahmer, that would reveal things to us about what defines a psychopath: what are their common traits, thought patterns, interests, ways of speaking, and what kind of antecedents lead up to serial killing? If we had a tonne of data on these types of people, they would eventually be discernible a lot sooner within the community. The more we learn, the less they wield any power over us. There must be a key or series of keys that reveal who they really are, although the publishing of those conclusions will likely lead to those killers shying away from those behaviours so they aren't caught.
I lived in Milwaukee when this happened. When it hit the press, it was just awful. There was a lot of feeling in the community that the police never attended prior reports of missing persons because they were Black or Asian and gay. They eventually destroyed his apartment building and it is an empty space now. If it makes anyone feel better, he died a brutal death in prison.
Newbie here. Have been playing catch up. Great content and no waffle, just straight to the point. As for Dahmer, I think that he knew what he was doing and was just plain evil!
Another great video! I just graduated with a Bachelor’s in Criminal Justice and serial killers were a big interest for me. You are definitely inspiring me to make my own channel for true crime!
That is so cool! Do that, there are lots of true crime enthusiasts out there, and serial killers are very interesting, another channel dedicated to true crime wouldn't hurt.
I'm a forensic science, criminology and criminal justice graduate. The ways criminal justice doesn't really mesh with criminology in a pure fashion is fascinating because criminal justice isn't geared towards these extreme cases simply because they are extreme. The only way of applying justice in these instances is by stacking convictions like you would anybody else and truly studying the reasons for the behaviour eventually meets ethical issues. In the end all we can do is speculate on the real motives for their actions if they even understand them themselves.
I always have wondered why we find serial killers so fascinating. Did they teach you that in school? My dad was a homicide detective and I wonder if that is why, because we were aware of his cases sometimes, and always watched the news.
@@petmomful2260 something that we discussed in my violent offenders class was that we, as a society, see people like this as monsters. As if they are not human, because a “normal” person couldn’t do something this horrific. Its like our brains try to justify this as just some one off thing done by an “evil-doer”. Maybe that’s were the fascination comes from? That there is some sort of good vs. evil thing when in reality its not that black and white. We have to figure out how someone could be so careless about human life because its just so hard to fathom.
@@hellbornbrat Well, that makes sense, because it does feel that way. I always wonder how anyone could be that monstrous! I mean, I cannot even squash bugs! Thanks.
Dahmer can't be considered "insane" because he was aware that was he was doing was wrong and harmed people. Insanity pleas only work if the accused is unaware of their actions at the time. Even then they're rarely granted.
Exactly. He doesnt meet the definition of insanity. As u state, he knew, what he was doing was wrong. And he chose to do it anyway. That makes him pure evil. But not insane.
I believe this is way he should have been put into a hospital and studied!! This is absolutely insane!! He has no emotion at all... He told the truth, the whole truth.. he was aroused by cutting dead bodies up.. he couldn't have sex with a live body.. only unconscious or dead.. every other serial killer lied to the end.... Even Ted Bundy lied until the day before he was put to death.. Jeffrey Dahmer's mother was also taking 26 hard core pills everyday while pregnant!! He didn't have a chance!! Then not to mention back in those days people didn't go to therapy.. and they thought being gay was evil or the devil had possessed you.. I'm sorry guys but I have to disagree this man was absolutely insane!!!
@@dfuher968 A little bit late but I wanted to say this: I feel like missed something, I mean, at one point, Dahmer looked kind of remorseful but we go down from that path, it means he did out of necessity, as if he needed that, he needed to have them like that and didn't want them to suffer so he wanted them to stay with him but what if he actually fooled everyone? bc from Tracy Edwards' testimony, it was as if he was totally another person, as if his facial structure wasn't the same which would mean that Dahmer was a really evil person, a really good manipulator, but who knows?
I've seen some interviews with him and one with his father. Jeffrey (this is how you spell his name, by the way) was a well spoken man with a very soft demeanor. If you hear him speak, you wouldn't know he was that evil, sick and twisted.
I love the sound of your voice, Paul. I find it very soothing and relaxing, no matter what story you're narrating. Belated birthday wishes to you, my friend...;-)
this channel is a gem! A big thank you to everybody who made this channel possible and are running it :) you guys rock, keep it up! I can feel that you guys will grow quickly
Don't forget Konerak was only Fourteen. Years. Old. And the women who called the police for him actually chased up afterwards, because they wanted to know if the "man" was okay. They cared more for a stranger than the police,
Thank you sir, another outstanding presentation. I find your brand of video so much more informative and fulfilling than the average common loud and over the top individuals on this platform these days.
i found your channel maybe an hour ago (i had the video about the guy who survived with part of his brain coming out after being impaled with the metal pole) and im already hooked! your story telling is great and kept my attention the whole time
New to the channel and what a lovely surprise it is! You are a remarkable story teller and I hate to be another one of THOSE people but the accent definitely doesn't hurt haha yours has has quickly become one of my favorite channels.
Love this channel, just stumbled across it and currently binge watching all the videos. I feel like I'm sat in a room hearing stories from my favourite uncle or that interesting bloke who sits drinking ales at the corner table of pub. Brilliant stuff.
“Serial killers” gained title; publicity in my lifetime. Obtained curiosity. Dahmer indeed tops them all😬. Watched everything starting with the news-a freezer as evidence😳. You shared additional details unknown & tell stories very well.
New subscriber here; I’m so happy I found your channel. I truly appreciate the thought put into your videos. There’s something that sets you aside from all the others. Keep up the great work 👍🏻
Hello, I’m a new subscriber. Loving your videos! Brilliant research and fantastically narrated! Trying to place your accent, mine is a little confused as I am Scottish but have lived in Hartlepool for nearly a decade….keep up the great work x
A superb examination of Dahmer's case. It was well analysed and concisely narrated. Brilliant job of keeping the details intact while leaving out judgment and proselytizing. I did think that there would be some discussion on the question of madness over sanity. Maybe using psychological findings...
I just found your channel and I have to admit it is sooo underrated, and I'm obsessed! All of your content is so interesting and your blunt humor is amazing!
What happened to that 14 year old boy has to be one of the most stupid and incompetent actions by police officers ever. You presented this highly disturbing content in a very calm and measured way, without a hint of sensationalism. If only main-stream media knew how to present a documentary in such an adult way! Very impressive work. As for Dahmer, I suspect that he was one of those people who have absolutely no empathy for the suffering of others. These days, he would probably be described as autistic and extremely disturbed.
Being autistic does not mean we have no empathy for others! That's a trait of pycho/sociopaths, autism is entirely different! I'm autistic have have what's called hyper-empathy - total opposite to lack of it.
I watched your vid about Kitty Genovese. You used some colourful words to describe her killer, but you make dahmer sound human. One 'heinous' right at the end. Well done.
Don't take any offence but your background reminds me of those grandfather stories but the only good difference is that these stories are interesting basically your channel is great
I took the Dahmer tour two years ago and walking around Walker's Point now and learning what the neighborhood used to be is kind of nuts. It's a gentrification tour. The guide told us that the police found out there were body parts in Dahmer's apartment because one of the officers on scene went to the fridge for a beer and saw organs in there. After that that, they obviously had an idea of who they were dealing with. The point other people have made about the cops not caring at all about the murders in the community is entirely true. The more you learn about it, the more clear it gets. My friend's relative worked with Dahmer and said that he was very shy and isolated. I was very young when Dahmer was brought to justice, so I remember nothing of the news coverage. My brother-in-law had nightmares, though.
So sad 😭 that police call was so hard to listen too especially because am sure you can hear someone giggling in the background am heartbroken 💔 watching this
People NEVER FORGET about Junko Furuta case!!!! Monsters who did that to her are free with families,with changed names and only were in prison less than 8 years.
Well I never! :) Fantastic video once again I always enjoy your videos! Just a suggestion for a upcoming video my mother told me about a serial killer called Harold Jones it really interested me however there are hardly any videos about him ... Stay well and hopefully I will see you soon :)
The police didn't want to get involved?! They're the police! It's literally their job to get involved! Whether the dude was 19 or 14, if he appeared to be in distress, HELLO, that's a good indication that something is wrong! I myself have asked numerous adults, are you here of your own free will or are you being held or detained against your will? Are you scared? Do you feel like you are in danger? And the most important one, Do you want to be here or do you want to leave? As a Protective Services Officer, I am absolutely appalled that those cops failed that poor young boy! They should have been charged with Dereliction of Duty and Deliberate Indifference and Housed in Gen Pop!Thru should also be held responsible for every single murder he committed after their incompetence!
Dang even Wayne Gacy was unnerved by the guy. Also recently I found out that the worst serial killers in America aren't even well known, if not known at all. So the idea that there is people out there worser then Jeffery Dahmer is insane.
@@eileenowen8749 so because gacy had a higher kill count that makes him worse than Dahmer? Dahmer was drilling holes in people's heads and pouring acid in them trying to make them zombies. The grotesqueness of Dahmer's crimes is what makes him worse.
@@8luvbug I definitely agree with what you're saying, but they're two different kinds of serial killers. John Wayne Gacy not only killed more, but he denied everything for ages and knew how to play mind games with the police. It wasn't even that the police were incompetent with him like they were with Jeffrey Dahmer. It was just that John Wayne Gacy knew they were following him and he knew how to get them frustrated. There's a lot of different factors that come into it on both sides, so for me, it's hard to say who was worse.
Gacy had a higher kill count, but he was not a cannibal and it is believed he didn't engage in necrophilia. With that in mind, Gacy was a psychopath, and despite how appalled people naturally are at what Dahmer did, scientists are now saying labeling him as such is incorrect. Gacy took delight and sadistic glee in torturing his victims; Dahmer had more of a deep-rooted sickness that revolved around beauty, loss, self-loathing, and other paraphilias. He was also diagnosed with borderline personality disorder.
@@cccbeats_ The fact that Dahmer confessed to everything while being aware is one of the reasons why everyone even notorious serial killers were unnerved by him. Gacy was being smart with the police, while Dahmer knew that the police wouldn't catch him because of the people he targeted (LGBTQ+ people of color). Dahmer confessed to everything in a calm voice, unphazed and detailed. He himself said he knew it was wrong but he couldn't stop so he did it anyways. He did human experiments trying to make men his obedient zombies that wouldn't leave his side and ate his victims so they can be a part of him that would never leave. He kept trophies and took pictures to remember them. So yeah, I think Dahmer is worse than Gacy. Gacy tricked the police and played little games with them, knowing he could get away after killing that many people anyways which is the scariest part. But Dahmer was way scarier in my opinion
what’s interesting is that he didn’t kill his victims until they wanted to leave, one of his victim stayed there alive and consensual for a week before meeting his death
I live near where his home in bath was and it’s thought that his first victim was picked up on the main street in my town. I’m sure I’ve passed by the location where Stephen was picked up numerous times. Crazy to think about
Tracey who escaped some details were left out about his escapeso i will add them here. He was cuffed, but when cuffed jeffrey put on horror movies and started telling Tracey that he was going to rip his heart out and eat it. He was going to be eaten. etc. Tracey managed to stay somewhat calm knowing this was life and death and he finally managed to get Jeffrey to uncuff him and Tracey overpowered him and ran out of the house for his life.
Tracey was wanted for rape Mississippi......he and another dude threw a guy off a BB bridge.....where he is now nobody knows.....Jeffrey was insane.....he had to get drunk to kill.....
I wish that we had got those brain scans but ultimately 17 people were murdered, disrespected when dead, and violated. Whether he had mental issues or not so we should all respect their families and give condolences. If these signs of a serial killer in childhood were seen sooner, I doubt this would have happened.
Plenty if not all children are somewhat fascinated by death as kids. If they find a dead animal, they will crowd around and dare each other to poke it, try to revive it or give mock burial rites. That's just how kids are.
So apparently, Jeffrey’s father noticed he was fascinated with bones, he would grind them and then spin while scattered the ground bones. It was also know by Jeffrey’s dad that Jeffrey was kinda sick or something and needed surgery, back then it was believed that children/infants didn’t need anesthesia and they performed on him. Both parents argued that after the surgery he was never quite the same.
I so love your understatement, among others: “unsurprisingly he was unsuccessful” in such a gruesome but SO well told account that absolutely cracked me up, you Sir are a legend.
Jeffery was my 1st glimpse into serial killers. I remember reading his book at the age of 17. It opened my eyes to the world of phsycology. 30 years later, extensive study,many many cases and a degree. His one still hunts me to this day why? This man was a different breed entirely. He was extremely likable and he did not particularly like the lime light. He made no excuses. He did it and he wanted to receive an end to his torment as well as the victims families. The was never intended evil. Killing was a means to an end because was lonely. Now this scares the shit out of me because at what point does loneliness became THIS? Because there are many lonely people out there. The human mind can be so beautiful and yet so destructive.
Thx for your presentation, Paul. Entertaining as always! ("Born To Kill" is a bizarre concept, true? No one is born to kill; we are all influenced by our experiences and genetics.)
in answer to the final question: i don't think dahmer was sane in the general sense of the term, but sane in the legal sense. he had homicidal and sexual urges that were clearly uncontrollable without medication, therapy, or institutionalization. however, he clearly knew these urges were wrong. from his early attempts to control his urges via alcoholism, to his disposal of the bodies, to his panic after killing his second victim, he showed a clear ability to know that what he was doing was wrong, but continued doing it regardless. i think if he was charged today, he should've been kept in a high security mental hospital for life, or at least a prison that could treat him properly, as he clearly showed signs of some kind of disordered thinking, but that's neither here nor there.
I don't think he was repulsed by his actions I think he loved killing these men and doing all that grotesque shit to their bodies. I also think he has more victims out there.
I wish they had got to examine his brain. Though without the synapses firing the most it could have said was if he had a tumor or malformation. Even monsters must retain some rights. This is one of those classic nature vs nurture cases. He always feels like both, maybe with more active parenting he could have been drawn away from the route he took.
I'd heard the story of Dahmer turning to religion and obeying the gospel. The minister who taught and baptized him felt he was sincere in his repentance. Some people don't believe it. Only Jeffrey and God know. I hope for his sake it's true.
As I understand it the 'insanity' defense is not whether or not you are mentally 'normal', but whether you are actually capable of understanding that what you have done is wrong? So anyone who tries to hide what they have done, to not get caught is not insane because they know that they have done wrong and gone against what society decides is acceptable.
The events that Jeffery would do later in life might have been stopped had his parents acted. Jeffery was known to have killed & tortured many animals as a youth, as well, as acted out in other ways, but his parents paid no heed to said actions & often interceded on his behalf.
*As if you would run out into public buck naked if you weren't in peril!* Those police officers should have been held accountable...they killed him just as sure as if they had held a gun to his head!
Legally, sanity is simply the difference between being aware of your actions or not. You can have any number of mental disorders, but if clear intent is proven and you're lucid enough to participate in your own defense, then you are deemed sane (or sane at the time of the act) and fit to stand trial. Dahmer was definitely crazy, but he knew what he was doing.
Well I just realized Dahmer was my mom's age (she was also born in May 1960), but was younger than I am now when he got caught. I always thought he was older. And it seems like a life time ago. Man now I feel old.
Yess, i know it sounds way too hipstery, still i proud myself with subscribing to channels i believe to being about to take off, of which one you clearly are. Good luck and thanks for the outstanding content!
The idea of a child being interested in how animals work wouldn't worry me too much because it sets him a goal in some ways but he never seemed to latch onto a real use for his fascination.
The fact that you can hear the cops trying to hold in their laughter during that phone call to the police is just horrible
It really is sickening, and it makes cops look bad.
Trying to hold back theri laughter?? You can literally hear his partner laughing. I hope it haunted them for the rest of their miserable life.
B*stards got that 14 year old killed. Hope they still have nightmares if they are alive
This is from an Article of New York Times 26th August 1991:
Officer Gabrish, 28 years old, a patrolman for seven years, said he and the other officers believed there was a caring relationship between Mr. Dahmer and the Laotian boy and saw no reason to intervene.
"We're trained to be observant and spot things," he said. "There was just nothing that stood out, or we would have seen it. I've been doing this for a while, and usually if something stands out, you'll spot it. There just wasn't anything there."
There was nothing that stood out, wtf?? What about a naked human being who is bleeding?? That's normal?? They were clearly racists since most of the eye witnesses were black and so was the victim an immigrant. Sack of shits.
@@nirvanalama8493 14 is not even the legal age of consent. Wtf
Dahmer was on probation prior to that Asian kid, and had the cops ran a background check they would've seen that Jeff was violating his probation. In addition, the cops would also come to find out that the Asian kid was a minor. A lot of missed opportunities
I hope they were fired.
I'm curious to find out if the officers where charged, and if they are still working today or still alive? I think they need to be held accountable for their neglect to the situation and racial profiling. Even to this day, they need to be held accountable.
I've watched many documentaries about Dahmer and it was said that, sadly, at that time the police didn't care much about homosexual victims or potential victims. Allegedly that's why they didn't check properly what was going on and the kid lost his life when he was so close to being saved.
@@Miss_Wonderful1 yeah, that's pretty much it. Nobody cared what happened to social deviants or people of color. They still don't care what happens to sex workers especially if they are BIPOC.
Did those coos ever get reprimanded later on?
12:40 sickening that the officers laughed at this instead of helped him. If they did their job, he could have lived.
Amen
Cops especially at that time were SUPER anti-gay and probably thought he was just a junky. I’m not forgiving it or trying to apologize for it. I’m just saying they had a bad bias and agree, if they just did their job that monster would have been caught faster. And yeah, he was a monster. I do not feel bad about this, my daughter told me that there was a monster under her bed, I checked, there wasn’t. I told her later on that people are the real monsters. I then told her about Gilgamesh and other ancient heroes, but people are what we fear. That shouldn’t be lost on us. We are all capable of doing bad things
John A. Balcerzak was one of the officers and he went on to have a long career. Only retiring as president of the Milwaukee police union in 2017.
@@TXnine7nine how am i not surprised...
Seems like they (the officers) didn't think of the young man as a human being, since he was an immigrant. Basically they were racists.
Thankfully they weren't the ones responding the second time too.
Horrifyingly, Konerak Sinthasomphone was not "drunk" as police supposed. The neighbors' intuition that something was desperately wrong was correct: Dahmer had drilled a hole in the young man's skull and poured acid in it.
He was able to run, able to spot "help"...but not able to make clear, in his traumatized and shocked state, what had happened.
And so he lost his life to ghastly horror.
I read some articles that said Konerak was mute, but this was just because of the damage, the acid in his brain had caused. He also tried to get away from Dahmer, when police was on scene but the police dismissed it.
@@ursamajor6347 Had nothing to do with Konerak's race or ethnicity. The cops were virulent homophobes, and couldn't get away from the scene fast enough. There is evidence of their homophobia and zero for racism. And no, both are not one and the same; there are homophobes in every race and ethnicity on the planet.
@@ursamajor6347 ohh yes such a common example of white privilege in everyday life. A man drills a hole in a teen boys head and pours acid into the hole and the kid escapes, calls for help, seems frantic and unable to speak and is brought back. Definitely a daily occurrence in this country. Happens all the time. Yup. They just revoked Dahmers white privilege when a black man called the cops on him and finally locked him up once and for all. No more white privilege. You sound outrageous. Let the poor boy rest in peace without you trying to politicize, racialize, and every other " ize" his death. That poor young teen boy is the victim here not you. Go jump on a political post somewhere and get all the likes that you are seeking.
@@IndigoRyu Someone told me that Konerak couldn't speak the language and couldn't get the police to understand him. That obviously wasn't accurate. Though whoever told me that story also told me the cops laughed at him, which unfortunately was right.
I knew of Dahmer but never knew the details until now. Chilling, and sickening. Hard to believe a human could sink to those levels of depravity. Chillingly well narrated Paul.

Crowley invoked a demon in a ceremony that was one of the Most lengthy and time consuming of All summoning rituals with a Serious, determined and Devoted disciple that Crowley considered and proved himself to be. Without the detail and as far as my memory will allow, he brought this Demon Out of the pit of Hell to the point that it's appearance Scared the shit out of him and Never closed the ceremony as he was supposed to because he ran from the house.

This took place at Boleskine House in Scotland that he owned which is a short walk to Loch Ness Lake. Since I began writing this post I looked up some more info on it where the info states Crowley owned it from 1889 - 1913 with the year 1913 was the one I was going to mention as the time he left the hose for good but think the ceremony he performed there was earlier than 1913.....by a few years.
The bottom line I intended to mention here is that soon after Crowley performed this Hellish ritual and the connection to the Horrors of World affairs that began from 1913 onward's the Whole World went into WW 1, the Great Depression followed by the Most Murderous and Destructive War in Human History that was World War 2 that Never had to happen but for the Miserable and Demonic British Empire since it was Occupied and enticed enough to Sell Out their Country and Birthright by the Luciferian RATshild Banker Dynasty since prior to 1815 and Nathan RATschild'd scheming and scamming that had "'Them"' the Real Rulers of England.

@@constitution_8939 Ehh...that was all quite histrionic. It should be understood that Crowley, in very much the same manner as THE MARQUIS De SADE, was known to many by virtue of his dubious celebrity, though very few knew him personally, and fewer still possessed an incisive understanding of his eccentric theological bent. The books of history are rife with revisionist bias and propaganda, and suppositious interpretations of alleged second-hand accounts from individuals of questionable veracity. The more plausible and likely version of the story paints Crowley as a ponderous, somewhat pretentious narcissist with a varied and insatiable sexual appetite, more inconsiderate than evil, and a man who relished in his own notoriety. His mystical preoccupations were more a sarcastic criticism of Christian hypocrisy than a truly held belief or practice. No demon conjuring, no taxidermy of his mother's corpse, just a bunch of entitled, free-loving pervs being theatrical, obfusc, and self-important for fun and attention.
@Claire E B I nearly blacked out trying to read his comment. Gave up after first paragraph.
Same here. I've always been uninterested in the details... Other than hearing/well seeing the video of his murder... I'm not sure if I will continue this video. It's just too heart breaking and disgusting....
Y'know, when the Dahmer show came out recently, everyone was like: "OMG, you love crime stuff! You gotta see it!" and it made me sick to my core how they took something so depraved, dramatized it, made the killer into a Tumblr sexy man, and gave him a tragic backstory. That show was feeding the sick people who worship serial killers, not the ones wanting to study them.
This is how you do it. Informative, not shying away from the brutality, but not sensationalizing it either. This feels far more respectful and worth people's time to watch.
I still have nightmares about the 14 year old being returned to Dahmer. I lived in Madison Wi at this time, and was only a few miles from one of the victims family. This was way to close to home, and the pain of the victim's families was horrible.
Bruh.
[CW: child abuse, violence, gaslighting]
My mom grew up in an abusive household in the northern Midwestern US from the 1960s-1970s.
She tried to tell other adults and get help so, so many times.
They never listened, so she tried to run away. The police caught her and her parents pressed charges, so she had to go to court.
The police and the judge all told my mom what a bad daughter she was for being ungrateful to her parents.
Her parents who starved her and beat her and mentally tortured her with insults and gaslighting.
The authorities can be very dismissive of people in danger if they think the people aren't important.
Poor gay Asian male child? Not important to them.
Poor white female child? Not important to them.
I watch true crime to try to understand people like my grandparents, and all their children except my mom who have continued the cycle of abuse by conning and stealing and physically abusing other people.
And I know now that their abuse continues because people don't want to hear about it. Including the police.
@@janeeyre1990 I agree with you. I wish things were different, and your mother should not have had to suffer the torture she was forced to. The only thing I can say is that now people do talk about being abused, but the world could be a much better place.
The trial happened when I was a young child and what I recall the most was watching the sister of one of the victims scream at Dahmer in court. Her reaction haunted me because I didn't quite understand what he'd done but I knew whatever it was had hurt that woman terribly. I don't think Dahmer was insane. He knew exactly what was doing and he loved every moment. Some people are just mean.
Being mean is a understatement.....he was EVIL!
Not mean-EVIL

I spy another LPOTL fan, lol.
@@lizc6393 megustalations!!
This man can tell a story in an absolutely spellbinding way. One of my favourite RUclips channels now.
Just seeing fan art and people raving about this guy on the internet really kind of brings up a level of disgust and anger for me to these people. Granted, it's not only Dahmer but other murderers as well, but it really begs the question of is it just levels of stupidity or depravity.
I feel bad for the people who have their families or friends murdered by these guys, only to see other people worship them for it.
I loathe serial killers. Or others who elect to be so outside society that murder torture rape etc are somehow justifiable.
They are so far removed from reality that they imagine romance between these killers. I think to them it is harmless fun or they are trying really hard to be edgy and provocative.
@Kerrie Wilson And this is why they changed their names. Don't make baseless assumptions about people. It's awful. Your parentage isn't everything.
I think he adds a lot to our understanding of humanity but not the good side of humanity - the sick and perverted side. He's the poster boy for horrible and barbaric practices towards his fellow man. While he sickens me to the core however, I see the merit in studying him and wish he had been kept alive - solely for the reason that there must be things we could document through experiments and studies on Dahmer, that would reveal things to us about what defines a psychopath: what are their common traits, thought patterns, interests, ways of speaking, and what kind of antecedents lead up to serial killing? If we had a tonne of data on these types of people, they would eventually be discernible a lot sooner within the community. The more we learn, the less they wield any power over us. There must be a key or series of keys that reveal who they really are, although the publishing of those conclusions will likely lead to those killers shying away from those behaviours so they aren't caught.
Those who worship this guy are depraved themselves.
I lived in Milwaukee when this happened. When it hit the press, it was just awful. There was a lot of feeling in the community that the police never attended prior reports of missing persons because they were Black or Asian and gay. They eventually destroyed his apartment building and it is an empty space now. If it makes anyone feel better, he died a brutal death in prison.
Thank you for sharing this.
You, Sir Paul, are a terrific narrator. No bloviating on your channel! Well done! Love your vids!
Ooh, a comment I agree with AND a new word for my internal thesaurus! Today's a treat!
@@MickeyMallone. A new word indeed!!
It is rare and a treat to find wholesome and enlightening comment threads on RUclips nowadays.
Newbie here. Have been playing catch up. Great content and no waffle, just straight to the point. As for Dahmer, I think that he knew what he was doing and was just plain evil!
Yup
Another great video! I just graduated with a Bachelor’s in Criminal Justice and serial killers were a big interest for me. You are definitely inspiring me to make my own channel for true crime!
That is so cool! Do that, there are lots of true crime enthusiasts out there, and serial killers are very interesting, another channel dedicated to true crime wouldn't hurt.
I'm a forensic science, criminology and criminal justice graduate. The ways criminal justice doesn't really mesh with criminology in a pure fashion is fascinating because criminal justice isn't geared towards these extreme cases simply because they are extreme. The only way of applying justice in these instances is by stacking convictions like you would anybody else and truly studying the reasons for the behaviour eventually meets ethical issues. In the end all we can do is speculate on the real motives for their actions if they even understand them themselves.
I always have wondered why we find serial killers so fascinating. Did they teach you that in school? My dad was a homicide detective and I wonder if that is why, because we were aware of his cases sometimes, and always watched the news.
@@petmomful2260 something that we discussed in my violent offenders class was that we, as a society, see people like this as monsters. As if they are not human, because a “normal” person couldn’t do something this horrific. Its like our brains try to justify this as just some one off thing done by an “evil-doer”. Maybe that’s were the fascination comes from? That there is some sort of good vs. evil thing when in reality its not that black and white. We have to figure out how someone could be so careless about human life because its just so hard to fathom.
@@hellbornbrat Well, that makes sense, because it does feel that way. I always wonder how anyone could be that monstrous! I mean, I cannot even squash bugs! Thanks.
Dahmer can't be considered "insane" because he was aware that was he was doing was wrong and harmed people. Insanity pleas only work if the accused is unaware of their actions at the time. Even then they're rarely granted.
Exactly. He doesnt meet the definition of insanity. As u state, he knew, what he was doing was wrong. And he chose to do it anyway. That makes him pure evil. But not insane.
I believe this is way he should have been put into a hospital and studied!! This is absolutely insane!! He has no emotion at all... He told the truth, the whole truth.. he was aroused by cutting dead bodies up.. he couldn't have sex with a live body.. only unconscious or dead.. every other serial killer lied to the end.... Even Ted Bundy lied until the day before he was put to death.. Jeffrey Dahmer's mother was also taking 26 hard core pills everyday while pregnant!! He didn't have a chance!! Then not to mention back in those days people didn't go to therapy.. and they thought being gay was evil or the devil had possessed you.. I'm sorry guys but I have to disagree this man was absolutely insane!!!
@@dfuher968 A little bit late but I wanted to say this: I feel like missed something, I mean, at one point, Dahmer looked kind of remorseful but we go down from that path, it means he did out of necessity, as if he needed that, he needed to have them like that and didn't want them to suffer so he wanted them to stay with him but what if he actually fooled everyone? bc from Tracy Edwards' testimony, it was as if he was totally another person, as if his facial structure wasn't the same which would mean that Dahmer was a really evil person, a really good manipulator, but who knows?
Agree.
I've seen some interviews with him and one with his father. Jeffrey (this is how you spell his name, by the way) was a well spoken man with a very soft demeanor. If you hear him speak, you wouldn't know he was that evil, sick and twisted.
I love the sound of your voice, Paul. I find it very soothing and relaxing, no matter what story you're narrating.
Belated birthday wishes to you, my friend...;-)
This is an underrated channel, but I have high hopes for you on RUclips! I just love the way you narrate stories.
Underrated by who?
Very well done. I wrote a paper about Dahmer at some point and you did a deeper dive than I did. Wonderfully presented terrible things.
this channel is a gem! A big thank you to everybody who made this channel possible and are running it :) you guys rock, keep it up! I can feel that you guys will grow quickly
Don't forget Konerak was only Fourteen. Years. Old. And the women who called the police for him actually chased up afterwards, because they wanted to know if the "man" was okay. They cared more for a stranger than the police,
Please never stop uploading, ive just discovered your channel and its the hidden gem i never knew i needed
Thank you sir, another outstanding presentation. I find your brand of video so much more informative and fulfilling than the average common loud and over the top individuals on this platform these days.
After all was said and done....scary part...he didn't stand out like a sore thumb!
I'm with the other commenters, you have a gift of story telling! ✌💛
Thats what is scary cuz most serial killers are so good playing the part of a normal person
I really like your presentations.
Thank you.
i found your channel maybe an hour ago (i had the video about the guy who survived with part of his brain coming out after being impaled with the metal pole) and im already hooked! your story telling is great and kept my attention the whole time
I'm currently binging your videos, the care you put into your content is amazing. I can't wait to watch more!!
absolutely love your delivery. No messing and straight to the point🇬🇧
How does this guy not have over 1 Million subs? His content is amazing!!!
Maybe it's his beard that throws some people off?
Your set up is perfect for this content.
Thank you Sir for the very concise and wonderfully narrated stories. Love all the videos.
New to the channel and what a lovely surprise it is! You are a remarkable story teller and I hate to be another one of THOSE people but the accent definitely doesn't hurt haha yours has has quickly become one of my favorite channels.
Love this channel, just stumbled across it and currently binge watching all the videos. I feel like I'm sat in a room hearing stories from my favourite uncle or that interesting bloke who sits drinking ales at the corner table of pub. Brilliant stuff.
“Serial killers” gained title; publicity in my lifetime. Obtained curiosity. Dahmer indeed tops them all😬. Watched everything starting with the news-a freezer as evidence😳. You shared additional details unknown & tell stories very well.
New subscriber here; I’m so happy I found your channel. I truly appreciate the thought put into your videos. There’s something that sets you aside from all the others. Keep up the great work 👍🏻
Just stumbled upon your channel, am 3 videos in and I must say that I am hooked! Keep up the great work! 👍
Hello, I’m a new subscriber. Loving your videos! Brilliant research and fantastically narrated! Trying to place your accent, mine is a little confused as I am Scottish but have lived in Hartlepool for nearly a decade….keep up the great work x
A superb examination of Dahmer's case. It was well analysed and concisely narrated. Brilliant job of keeping the details intact while leaving out judgment and proselytizing. I did think that there would be some discussion on the question of madness over sanity. Maybe using psychological findings...
I just found your channel and I have to admit it is sooo underrated, and I'm obsessed! All of your content is so interesting and your blunt humor is amazing!
As always, superior in every way. Top-notch! BEST mustaches to be found anywhere.
What happened to that 14 year old boy has to be one of the most stupid and incompetent actions by police officers ever. You presented this highly disturbing content in a very calm and measured way, without a hint of sensationalism. If only main-stream media knew how to present a documentary in such an adult way! Very impressive work. As for Dahmer, I suspect that he was one of those people who have absolutely no empathy for the suffering of others. These days, he would probably be described as autistic and extremely disturbed.
Being autistic does not mean we have no empathy for others! That's a trait of pycho/sociopaths, autism is entirely different! I'm autistic have have what's called hyper-empathy - total opposite to lack of it.
@@bookhousegirl I agree - it's a very wide spectrum.
John A. Balcerzak was one of the officers and he went on to have a long career. Only retiring as president of the Milwaukee police union in 2017.
He also was gay....so the woke crowd would make excuses for him.
@@texasgirl6000 I have seen cases of people fighting harder for correct pronoun of guilty ones than the actual situation. This sadly is true.
I watched your vid about Kitty Genovese. You used some colourful words to describe her killer, but you make dahmer sound human. One 'heinous' right at the end. Well done.
Don't take any offence but your background reminds me of those grandfather stories but the only good difference is that these stories are interesting basically your channel is great
I took the Dahmer tour two years ago and walking around Walker's Point now and learning what the neighborhood used to be is kind of nuts. It's a gentrification tour. The guide told us that the police found out there were body parts in Dahmer's apartment because one of the officers on scene went to the fridge for a beer and saw organs in there. After that that, they obviously had an idea of who they were dealing with. The point other people have made about the cops not caring at all about the murders in the community is entirely true. The more you learn about it, the more clear it gets.
My friend's relative worked with Dahmer and said that he was very shy and isolated. I was very young when Dahmer was brought to justice, so I remember nothing of the news coverage. My brother-in-law had nightmares, though.
So sad 😭 that police call was so hard to listen too especially because am sure you can hear someone giggling in the background am heartbroken 💔 watching this
You tell these tales giving information without over drama. Very interesting
People NEVER FORGET about Junko Furuta case!!!! Monsters who did that to her are free with families,with changed names and only were in prison less than 8 years.
There is no justice in this world. That’s why revenge is so important.

Just subscribed. You've a great voice and demeanour for story telling. Excellent I'm really enjoying them though many are extremely chilling
Well I never! :) Fantastic video once again I always enjoy your videos! Just a suggestion for a upcoming video my mother told me about a serial killer called Harold Jones it really interested me however there are hardly any videos about him ... Stay well and hopefully I will see you soon :)
Sir, your presentation of the subjects you address are very well done. In my view you are in at least the top five percent on RUclips.
The police didn't want to get involved?! They're the police! It's literally their job to get involved! Whether the dude was 19 or 14, if he appeared to be in distress, HELLO, that's a good indication that something is wrong! I myself have asked numerous adults, are you here of your own free will or are you being held or detained against your will? Are you scared? Do you feel like you are in danger? And the most important one, Do you want to be here or do you want to leave? As a Protective Services Officer, I am absolutely appalled that those cops failed that poor young boy! They should have been charged with Dereliction of Duty and Deliberate Indifference and Housed in Gen Pop!Thru should also be held responsible for every single murder he committed after their incompetence!
Yes to everything you just said!
Dang even Wayne Gacy was unnerved by the guy. Also recently I found out that the worst serial killers in America aren't even well known, if not known at all. So the idea that there is people out there worser then Jeffery Dahmer is insane.
I don't understand why Gacy was unnerved by him. He was worse. He had a higher kill count.
@@eileenowen8749 so because gacy had a higher kill count that makes him worse than Dahmer? Dahmer was drilling holes in people's heads and pouring acid in them trying to make them zombies. The grotesqueness of Dahmer's crimes is what makes him worse.
@@8luvbug I definitely agree with what you're saying, but they're two different kinds of serial killers. John Wayne Gacy not only killed more, but he denied everything for ages and knew how to play mind games with the police. It wasn't even that the police were incompetent with him like they were with Jeffrey Dahmer. It was just that John Wayne Gacy knew they were following him and he knew how to get them frustrated. There's a lot of different factors that come into it on both sides, so for me, it's hard to say who was worse.
Gacy had a higher kill count, but he was not a cannibal and it is believed he didn't engage in necrophilia. With that in mind, Gacy was a psychopath, and despite how appalled people naturally are at what Dahmer did, scientists are now saying labeling him as such is incorrect. Gacy took delight and sadistic glee in torturing his victims; Dahmer had more of a deep-rooted sickness that revolved around beauty, loss, self-loathing, and other paraphilias. He was also diagnosed with borderline personality disorder.
@@cccbeats_ The fact that Dahmer confessed to everything while being aware is one of the reasons why everyone even notorious serial killers were unnerved by him. Gacy was being smart with the police, while Dahmer knew that the police wouldn't catch him because of the people he targeted (LGBTQ+ people of color). Dahmer confessed to everything in a calm voice, unphazed and detailed. He himself said he knew it was wrong but he couldn't stop so he did it anyways. He did human experiments trying to make men his obedient zombies that wouldn't leave his side and ate his victims so they can be a part of him that would never leave. He kept trophies and took pictures to remember them. So yeah, I think Dahmer is worse than Gacy. Gacy tricked the police and played little games with them, knowing he could get away after killing that many people anyways which is the scariest part. But Dahmer was way scarier in my opinion
Catching up with your back catalogue of videos, all fascinating, great work Paul
I think that you sir need to narrate every video and podcast on the platform!!!
what’s interesting is that he didn’t kill his victims until they wanted to leave, one of his victim stayed there alive and consensual for a week before meeting his death
Looking dapper, Paul! I hope you had a great birthday!
What hitted me most about this story is the laughter of the cops and the Gacy quote. Brilliant video and channel.
I love your videos! I just keep watching them one after another, and I love how you tell stories compared to others! Keep it up!
Jesus! I wouldn't post that on my birthday either, great telling of the story, thanks mate.
P.S hope your day was top notch.
I live near where his home in bath was and it’s thought that his first victim was picked up on the main street in my town. I’m sure I’ve passed by the location where Stephen was picked up numerous times. Crazy to think about
Your story telling is wonderful. The added old photos and locations are like icing on the cake ,as we say in the US.
Great channel ! Already suscribed ! Thanks for the great work !
That was grim but brilliant! And evil he knew what he was doing was wrong and continued on! Horrific 😱
Tracey who escaped some details were left out about his escapeso i will add them here. He was cuffed, but when cuffed jeffrey put on horror movies and started telling Tracey that he was going to rip his heart out and eat it. He was going to be eaten. etc. Tracey managed to stay somewhat calm knowing this was life and death and he finally managed to get Jeffrey to uncuff him and Tracey overpowered him and ran out of the house for his life.
Tracey was wanted for rape Mississippi......he and another dude threw a guy off a BB bridge.....where he is now nobody knows.....Jeffrey was insane.....he had to get drunk to kill.....
I wish that we had got those brain scans but ultimately 17 people were murdered, disrespected when dead, and violated.
Whether he had mental issues or not so we should all respect their families and give condolences.
If these signs of a serial killer in childhood were seen sooner, I doubt this would have happened.
Plenty if not all children are somewhat fascinated by death as kids. If they find a dead animal, they will crowd around and dare each other to poke it, try to revive it or give mock burial rites. That's just how kids are.
So apparently, Jeffrey’s father noticed he was fascinated with bones, he would grind them and then spin while scattered the ground bones. It was also know by Jeffrey’s dad that Jeffrey was kinda sick or something and needed surgery, back then it was believed that children/infants didn’t need anesthesia and they performed on him. Both parents argued that after the surgery he was never quite the same.
I laughed for 10 minutes straight when you asked at the end, "do you think Dahmer was crazy?" in a deadpan tone of voice.
Great Videos. U put lots of effort in them
I so love your understatement, among others: “unsurprisingly he was unsuccessful” in such a gruesome but SO well told account that absolutely cracked me up, you Sir are a legend.
I no longer want Morgan Freeman to narrate my life. I choose Mr. Brodie.
Jeffery was my 1st glimpse into serial killers. I remember reading his book at the age of 17. It opened my eyes to the world of phsycology.
30 years later, extensive study,many many cases and a degree. His one still hunts me to this day why?
This man was a different breed entirely.
He was extremely likable and he did not particularly like the lime light.
He made no excuses. He did it and he wanted to receive an end to his torment as well as the victims families.
The was never intended evil. Killing was a means to an end because was lonely.
Now this scares the shit out of me because at what point does loneliness became THIS? Because there are many lonely people out there.
The human mind can be so beautiful and yet so destructive.
BS not buying that. Just saying what people wants to hear
@@8luvbug I truly hope so coz there's alot of lonely people out there 😱
"Honorably discharged."
holy shit.
Ikr
Dahmer always got a slap on the wrist for everything
God forbid the United States Army become a Haven for killers……
Thx for your presentation, Paul. Entertaining as always! ("Born To Kill" is a bizarre concept, true? No one is born to kill; we are all influenced by our experiences and genetics.)
awesome format love !!! UK
in answer to the final question: i don't think dahmer was sane in the general sense of the term, but sane in the legal sense. he had homicidal and sexual urges that were clearly uncontrollable without medication, therapy, or institutionalization. however, he clearly knew these urges were wrong. from his early attempts to control his urges via alcoholism, to his disposal of the bodies, to his panic after killing his second victim, he showed a clear ability to know that what he was doing was wrong, but continued doing it regardless. i think if he was charged today, he should've been kept in a high security mental hospital for life, or at least a prison that could treat him properly, as he clearly showed signs of some kind of disordered thinking, but that's neither here nor there.
He did seem to be conflicted in the sense that I think even HE was repulsed by his actions.
I don't think he was repulsed by his actions I think he loved killing these men and doing all that grotesque shit to their bodies. I also think he has more victims out there.
Shocking police conduct.
I subscribed because
• I like how you narrate
• you remind me a bit of my grandad 😊
Enjoyed is a weird way to describe it but it was a good video on the subject.
I’m just wondering who the hell decided to interview Gacy about dahmer
I wish they had got to examine his brain. Though without the synapses firing the most it could have said was if he had a tumor or malformation. Even monsters must retain some rights.
This is one of those classic nature vs nurture cases. He always feels like both, maybe with more active parenting he could have been drawn away from the route he took.
always great content, thanks !
I'd heard the story of Dahmer turning to religion and obeying the gospel. The minister who taught and baptized him felt he was sincere in his repentance. Some people don't believe it. Only Jeffrey and God know. I hope for his sake it's true.
Brilliant, brilliant content. Just love your videos! :)
Currently binge watching your channel
As I understand it the 'insanity' defense is not whether or not you are mentally 'normal', but whether you are actually capable of understanding that what you have done is wrong? So anyone who tries to hide what they have done, to not get caught is not insane because they know that they have done wrong and gone against what society decides is acceptable.
The events that Jeffery would do later in life might have been stopped had his parents acted. Jeffery was known to have killed & tortured many animals as a youth, as well, as acted out in other ways, but his parents paid no heed to said actions & often interceded on his behalf.
He never KILLED, nor tortured any animals.
Dahmer collected and mutiliated roadkill. Not live animals.
Is Dennis Nilsen next? Here is what Dennis thinks of Jeffrey. ruclips.net/video/D-tAm3FX-0Y/видео.html
this was the best documentary ive heard w pictures and all! thank you for the work you put into this!
*As if you would run out into public buck naked if you weren't in peril!* Those police officers should have been held accountable...they killed him just as sure as if they had held a gun to his head!
Legally, sanity is simply the difference between being aware of your actions or not. You can have any number of mental disorders, but if clear intent is proven and you're lucid enough to participate in your own defense, then you are deemed sane (or sane at the time of the act) and fit to stand trial. Dahmer was definitely crazy, but he knew what he was doing.
Well I just realized Dahmer was my mom's age (she was also born in May 1960), but was younger than I am now when he got caught. I always thought he was older. And it seems like a life time ago. Man now I feel old.
Happy Birthday, yesterday, Sir! My gift for you is MORE CONTENT, by you, for EVERYONE! 😁
Another top notch production.
Yess, i know it sounds way too hipstery, still i proud myself with subscribing to channels i believe to being about to take off, of which one you clearly are. Good luck and thanks for the outstanding content!
The police failed soo badly with this one! No excuses whatsoever for how they handled things.
Awesome upload 👍 Thanking you 😊
Were the police officers fired or charged?? Of course not......SICK cops laughing!!
There is a Netflix documentary that mentions the officers though I do not recall the disposition.
When a serial killer is afraid of a serial killer, you know he is a true monster.
The idea of a child being interested in how animals work wouldn't worry me too much because it sets him a goal in some ways but he never seemed to latch onto a real use for his fascination.
