They would have known that Konerak was only 14 years old and saw the decomposing corpse of one of his victims laying on the floor of his bedroom!

Parents make excuses, rather than take responsibility for the problems they have sadly heaped on their children. I can't even imagine, the pain, anger, disgust or feeling of injustice the family members or friends of the victims of Jeffrey Dahmer must of felt at the time, or still feel now. Gaurd your heart, accept people for who they are and not what the can be (good or bad) and protect yourself. For over a decade Dahmer existed in plain-site where efforts to protect the gay public seemed of little concern. His mother, comes across as mentally unstable, selfish and in denial of how her actions have led to Dahmers delay in development.He dropped out of Ohio State University after one quarter term, and his recently remarried father insisted that he join the Army. His brother David has never publicly talked about his brother Jeffrey Dahmer, he doesn't want to be associated with him and the horrific, disgusting, disturbing crimes he committed. After his trial/convictions for at least 15 of his 17 murders, he was in solitary confinement for his own safety due to be intensely hated by other inmates/convicts in the prison.

She felt lonely, abandoned, ignored, neglected while she was growing up which lead to her becoming needy and always seeking reassurance, which some people would describe as being attention-seeking type of behaviour. We are no different, we are ALL products in some form or another of our physical composition and experiences as growing children, into adulthood. Not nourished Spirituality was the only reason which he shares with every human beeing on the planet. People who analyzed Dahmer more ultimately concluded or theorized that due to his childhood, drinking problems, coming out as homosexual when it wasn’t accepted and possibly due to the surgery he had when he was younger he shouldn’t have been held entirely responsible for his actions, but he was. Both parents made big mistakes from what I've read, but I can sympathise with both, as they did their best considering.How did he think that introducing a small child to dead animals and teaching him how to preserve them was normal, nevermind a good idea? A world-renowned investigative criminologist, he has gained the trust of murderers across the world, entered their high security prisons, and discussed in detail their shocking crimes. Also, according to the author most of us older women would have loved Dahmer because he kept his apartment tidy! As if that wasn't bad enough, Lionel waited until Jeffrey had been incarcerated for 15 murders (2 not accounted for in charges) before he admitted that he had also had disturbing and destructive behaviour related thoughts throughout his life! Additionally, Lionel also thought that taking Jeff to remove the carcass of a dead animal underneath the house was a good idea!

There are other “Dahmers” out there, and we need to understand that these dispositions aren’t a choice, and WE must do all that we can to HELP people with these dispositions. Now, animals are an interest of many who then don't go on to become a serial killer, but I do feel that if Jeff had been supported and nurtured in the correct way then things may have been different.Parental neglect and heredity (look into his mother’s mental illness, and his father’s scientific intelligence); look into his development as a child and experiences (he was molested, he became an alcoholic as a child, etc. It's creepy to me that Jeffrey Dahmer, after being released from prison/having psychological assessments/tests done that he murdered his second victim 24 year Steven Tuomi. After attempting to go to the college Jeffrey Dahmer dropped out after 3 months, due to his extreme alcoholism, self-sabotage, he then enlisted to be in the US Army, he was stationed in Germany for three years. He came across as unbearably pompous and derogatory towards everyone working on the case, not just Dahmer himself. Sometimes all the hope and love in the world won’t change a person and you have to accept them for who they are and not what you want them to be.
