Jeffrey Dahmer in his grandmother’s house, recorded by his father.

“It just seems so bizarre to me that…. this obsession that I’d been thinking about and wanting…..just uhh..all the..all the parts are there and they… they make it possible to make it happen. Just at the…just at the time when it could happen when there was nobody at the house for 2 weeks.”

“I just get angry with other people who think they have a right to somehow try to blame my parents for what happened. That’s not right at all. No one has the right to do that because they’re totally innocent. They had no knowledge of it. And that angers me. There comes a point where a person has to be accountable for what he’s done. Can’t go around making excuses, blaming other people or other things. So I alone am the one who is responsible for what’s happened. The only motive that there ever was was to completely control a person—a person I found physically attractive. And keep them with me as long as possible, even if it meant just keeping a part of them.”

By the time Jeff was two years old he was talking. He called himself ‘Jeffy’ and held fingers up to indicate his age. He could also say ‘potty’, ‘Up pease’, and ‘TV’, and within a few more months had memorised his first prayer. The words of the prayer were. ‘Now lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep. God bless everyone. Make Jeffy a good boy. Amen.’ 

“I don’t know why it started. I don’t have any definite answers on that myself. If I knew the true, real reasons why all this started, before it ever did, I wouldn’t probably have done any of it.”

“I separated the joints, the arm joints, the leg joints, and had to do two boilings. I think I used four boxes of soilex for each one, put in the upper portion of the body and boiled that for about two hours and then the lower portion for another two hours. The soilex removes all the flesh, turns it into a jelly-like substance and it just rinses off. Then I laid the clean bones in a light bleach solution,left them there for a day and spread them out on either newspaper or cloth and let them dry out for about a week in the bedroom.”

“I took the knife and the scalp part off and peeled the flesh off the bone and kept the skull and the scalp… If I could have kept him longer, all of him, I would have.”

“Nothing else gave me pleasure towards the end, nothing, not normal things, especially near the end when things just started piling up, person after person, during the last six months. I could not get pleasure from going out to eat, I just felt very empty, frustrated, and driven to continue doing it. None of these are excuses for what I did, but those are the feelings I had in those last months, really intensive. For some reason, I kept doing it. I knew my job was in jeopardy around February. All I would have had to do was just stop for several months at a time and space it out, but it didn’t happen that way. I was just driven to do it more frequently and more frequently until it was just too much- complete overload. I couldn’t control it any more.”

As soon as they returned to West Allis, Mrs. Dahmer and her grandson began spending more time together.  They went to church together and read the Bible.  Jeff immersed himself in the Bible while he was alone, too, in a conscious attempt to wrestle with the blackness within him and purge it … ’I was reading the Bible then, trying to get my life straightened around, and I’d give some  money to the street people sometimes, or send it in to different missionaries.’  By being charitable and kind, he hoped to eradicate his sinfulness or at least smother it.  The memory of Stephen Hicks faded and no longer lunged tormentingly at him in the middle of the day.  He also managed to control his habits of masturbation and limit himself to one time per week.  He felt it was wrong and had to be reduced; by rubbing himself against the bed instead of using his hand, he was able to convince himself that he was not really indulging in self-abuse.  He also felt guilty about the imaginings in his head which accompanied this pseudo-masturbation, because they were always homosexual and the Bible taught that homosexuality was sinful.  He succeeded in repressing them and was pleased with himself.
