Jeffrey Dahmer: The Cannibal - Mind of a Monster
Investigation Discovery 1h 27m 2020
Season(s): 1
From the transcripts of the audio recordings of the extensive police officers after Jeffrey Dahmer's arrest, this documentary is narrated in Dahmer's own words. His skewed view reveals new insights into what led Jeffrey Dahmer - known as the Milwaukee Cannibal - to rape, kill and dismember 17 young men between 1978 and 1991. Dahmer's childhood home video footage was an intimate insight into his relatively normal upbringing and a disturbing yet tragic revelation about his motives. In an emotional interview, his father, Lionel Dahmer, details his information about offering his son the help he so desperately needs. Other notable changes throughout the special include: Ronald Flowers, one of Dahmer's victims who somehow avoided being assassinated; Dr. Park Deitz, forensic psychiatrist who spent time with Dahmer; and an exclusive, never-before-seen interview with Nicole Childress, a witness who tried in vain to save one of Dahmer's victims and lives with independent guilt overnight forever.
