Jeffrey Dahmer cannibal, a journalist reveals the surprising reason why the serial killer ate his victims

You surely haven’t missed it: at the moment, a mini-series is exploding all audience scores on the Netflix platform, the one based on the true story of Jeffrey Dahmer, a serial killer known for having murdered 17 people before eating their corpses between the years 1978 and 1991, when he was caught by the police, before being murdered in prison for his fellow inmate, Christopher Scarver, in 1994.

On the sidelines of this great Netflix success, a journalist who was investigating this strange cannibalistic serial killer was interviewed to reveal the reason why Jeffrey Dahmer ate his victims. I have to say that Nancy Glass has repeatedly confronted the “Dahmer monster” in person. Aged 67, the latter said that she had met him in Milwaukee, and that he had confided in her with an open heart.

“Jeffrey Dahmer wanted his victims to be part of him”

“He told me thathe had decided to eat his victims because he wanted them to be part of him. He was desperate, totally alone and enormously ashamed of being gay.”she dropped on Jeffrey Dahmer, who has therefore been deceased for almost thirty years now. The journalist managed to have these revelations in 1993after having maintained a professional relationship with the serial killer for 18 long months.

For her, unlike the fictional character Hannibal Lecter, who reveled in the taste of human flesh, Jeffrey Dahmer consumed his victims. “out of loneliness because of serious attachment problems he suffered from because of his mother’s abandonment”. Nancy Glass also revealed that the mother of the cannibal killer had consumed many drugs while she was pregnant, which had caused her serious cerebral sequelae. A totally crazy story.
