There was a lot of folks that did not come forward after Jeffrey Dahmer were caught because during that time be out and proud was not a thing or they were just in the closet but had escaped Jeffrey's grasp and I was one of them. I am so glad to be alive today and only told the story to 2 people that I know. Crazy thing is I ended up having sex with Tracy years after Jeffrey Dahmer. He looks nothing now how he looked before.

The fact that he was in a bad place with Jeffery Dahmer and didn't know what to do especially when Jeffery snapped he managed to save himself and escape he was a hero and then he got nothing and his life wasn't the same after Jeffery Dahmer was caught he had to testify and re live the situation all over again and it messed up his head badly. He was the ONLY man who fought back while others could NOT*** Jeffery Dahmer caused so much pain to so many ppl. He is dead now but the victims haven't found their peace and neither have the families. Oxford Apartments are all gone and there was no memorial for the victims. They all died one of them did try to escape when he was laying unconscious and the COPS brought him back to Dahmer thinking they were lovers. Jeffery Dahmer is in hell now but I don't think that DEVIL would not want him there either b/c Jeffery Dahmer was the devil himself.... Where ever Jeffery Dahmer is he left a chilling legacy. He was like Buffalo Bill from Slience Of The Lambs.

according to reports all his victims were gay men and most that he picked up at a gay bar....so of course that's how they would present all the victims as...... i don't know how old tracy edwards was here...but it is weird that a straight man would allow himself to be photographed in the nude for money by a male stranger. it'd be probably less believable as part of the series. but i think they should have done more research on how tracy edwards and dahmer met leading up to that fateful night.....

Poor Tracy, he did not have an easy life. Is he still with us? Bless him

Craziest sh*t is he was the most handsome athletic guy during the time. He also had a twin brother which interesting enough stayed out of the spotlight and with good reason. They must have been fraternal twins because the brother was even more handsome and more athletic than Tracey. I sometimes wonder if Dahmer also made a go for him as well. From what it sounds like he did not just happen upon all his victims by coincidence. This was way before the term stalking was etching into our lexicon but it sounds like that is what he did with some of his victims and when he did make contact with them he made it appear organic and it was anything but.

Geraldo was not the show for this. I don’t think Geraldo is handling this with the tact needed. My heart goes out to the family, and friends of the family and definitely to Tracy.

His family should be compensated for everything he went through with the police.

During that time if you were Black they assumed you were up to no good. The area was not actually that bad back then because I have lived in the area 4 years before Dahmer. Marquette University is located in the area and back then there were quite a bit of students who lived off campus in the area. But if you were white the cops never took a turn on you. That is just the way of the world. Does not make it right but it is what it is. That area now is gone to sh*t. Very scary sh*t happens around there. Marquette University is still there and going strong but just on the news the other day they said at least 3 students apartments were broken into and those were on campus.

The fact that he was homeless after this happened ....., the government failed him. This poor man

It’s clear that the audience member nor Geraldo doesn't know how trauma works. He’s wasn’t being heroic as Geraldo calls it. He was actually disassociating which can happen as a protective barrier/protection mechanism. It’s like the body and the brain aren’t unified and the victim is operating on auto pilot. I love how he continued to acknowledge God regardless of what he was faced with. Many blessings and healing to him.

He got away from Jeffrey Dahmer but couldn't get away from the trauma. This man should have gotten help a long time ago and maybe then his life wouldn't be so troubled now.

Tracy was such a beautiful man who was traumatized and never got the help he needed. Without his life crossing that of Dahmer he would have made a wonderful life, probably with a beautiful wife and beautiful children.

This Mr. Edwards deserve a reward!! Please help this man!!! Shame on the system for failing to ensure him a financial stable life and mental help! Shame on dropping the ball! May God reward this man! 🙏🏽

The thing that creeps me out the most till this day is even Tracy mentioned the camera in Jeff’s apartment. The camera was literally the ONLY thing left out of every single police report, never brought up in court, never mentioned. What In the Fk was on that security camera in the living room….

May be because he had two sides, and show us his best one. May be there is some schizophrenia. Tracy Edwards was the only one who saw Dahmer’s worse and remain alive.

I believe he was deeply sick.
