He showed with a decreased person in the bath. He held a person's head in hand whilst he relived him self. Had body parts in fridge. Relived himself inside a dead person. He eats body parts. Yet this is the actions of someone who in legal terms is sane.

Yeaaah, I feel that this would be a very different case today, given the new knowledge of mental disorders. In my eyes, yes he was extremely intelligent and maybe wasn’t insane, but he had struggled with necrophilia his entire life mixed with homosexuality. Having no one to talk to/feel comfortable in your sexuality and talk about your feelings can make you feel hopeless. And his case was hopeless, due to the fact that society also failed him.

In terms of common sense he was totally nuts, but in the legal sense he was not. That's the problem with courts is they have to divide human behavior into black and white, when life is many shades of gray. Dahmer was both deranged and sick, and I think had he received proper treatment he could have stopped this early.

Reminds me a lot of Dennis Nilsen in Britain who started in the same year as Dahmer (1978) which is even more weird. He also spoke candidly to police about what he did and his fantasies etc.

So true.. If your guilty and confessed you shoulnt need a lawyer and make that lawyer look bad and argue to get you a less judgment. ....duet 17 ....After they have interpreted the law and declared their verdict, the sentence they impose must be fully executed; do not modify it in any way. Anyone arrogant enough to reject the verdict of the judge or of the priest who represents the LORD your God must die. In this way you will purge the evil from Israel. Then everyone else will hear about it and be afraid to act so arrogantly.

He decided to not wear his glasses in court. He was extremely near-sighted and couldn't see well without his glasses. So by not wearing them, all he saw were blurs. He said it made him too nervous seeing the faces of the judge, jury, and victims' families.

Sometimes, a person is just too mad and evil for this world. Dahmer is one. I simply can't understand how any adult could wilfully slaughter another. He was truely a deviant.

@robinc6288

Exactly, we want to think he was crazy but in reality he's just human. Look at his interviews in prison he seems perfectly normal and his parents didn't notice him going mad. He just simply had sick fantasies and was willing to play them out and normal people don't want to believe it. Look at how quickly humans became completely barbaric in Iraq and Syria during ISIS times. A lot of those people will have been normal working people in Syria especially before that war started.

or maybe taunting them since he wanted to die and make somebody to do that. He cannot do suicide, don't know why.

Dahmer's hand movements and mouth movements are unnerving during this opening statement.

This lawyer is cringe.

I was young even this happened but, I remember watching this (because the adults were watching it) and I watching the victims families get up there and the pain that came these families exhibited was so heart wrenching. The poor ppl that lived in that building, and had to hear the atrocities that took place there is unimaginable. Knowing these ppl had to hear what he did and the fact they called the police and was begging for someone to come and see what he was doing but, they were ignored. The police are 100% responsible he got away with this as long as he did. Jeffrey Dahmer was a sick dude. It honestly blows my mind how long he got away with this.

BOTH MONSTER AND MADMAN!

why does the ambient noise sound like an inside of a flying passenger aircraft?

Pardon my bluntness but I thought this 30 years ago and I still wonder today if JD wasn't getting off by listening to his acts over and over. Hearing the defense recalling his oh woe is me life. Then the State making him sound a dedicated worker in his chosen field. Joel Guy Jr didn't really try to hide it.

When this happend, i was still a little baby... 30 years later , it went viral at netflix... This is maybe an old case , but it was fascinating me that over decades it still really caught our attentions...myself randomly clicked every documenter about him in youtube now, after watched netflix.... Imagine if tweeter exist in 90's ...

Defense just talking in circles

I am thinking if he could choose the better way and the love of his life; or ever few true friends

Has anyone noticed his white knuckles throughout this?

We didnt need 2 week of hearing how guilty he was. He said he was. Read the law to him and place judgment and no arguing the judgment of death. No changing it to the left or to the right. Righteous and fair. No wasting time and moeny to bring judgment on a manslayer that is guilty. Clean the earth of this evil.

I understand where you're coming from. If it wasn't for this prosecutor and the DA's office and even Jeffrey Dahmer's lawyers, then we wouldn't have the psychological studies that we have today. I know that sounds horrible because it's like the victim's had to be some sort of Lab rat for this study to take place. But at least some good did come out of this. For the victims who did die in a horrible most disgusting way, their deaths are not in vain. Because now we have the signs to recognize if your child may have any psychological homicidal tendencies in the future. That helps save lives.
