Jeffrey's first victim
Jeffrey was 18 years old when he claimed his first victim, Steven Hicks. Jeffrey was home alone as his father left for a business trip, so he picked up a hitchhiker named Steven Hicks and offered to take him back to his fathers house for a beer, Steven accepted Jeffreys offer and went back with him. When Steven decided to leave Jeffrey did not agree with this and hit him over the head witrh a 10lb dumbbell, he then burried the body in the back yard and amitted to killing him. -
Family problems
In 1978, during Dahmer’s senior year, his parents’ poisonous marriage finally came to an end. The couple split up, going their separate ways. Jeffrey took the divorce hard, as most children do. At this time Jeffery was eighteen so the court didn’t decide which parent he would live with. Lionel and Joyce were fighting over who would get custody of David. This enraged Jeffrey because once again he felt unwanted, like they didn’t care where he lived, to him he just saw it as being abandoned. -
9 years on
9 years later Jeffrey took his second victim, Steven Toumi, from a gay bar and killed him later on impulse and later on stating that he had no memory of committing the crime. After the murder of Steven Toumi, Jeffrey murdered another 2 men in 1988 and one more in 1989. He would usually pick up his victims from gay bars and had sex with them before killing them. -
Moving out
In May of 1990, he once again moved out of his grandmother’s house into an apartment that would later be the location of four more murders in 1990 and three more in 1991. -
Wandering boy
In 1991 a boy was found wandering the streets drugged and confused, this boy was 14 year old Konerak Sinthasomphone. He was found by two women who called 911, however Dahmer chased after his victim and stated to the police that he was his 19-year-old boyfriend. Without a sex offender background check or age verification, the police handed Sinthasomphone back over to Dahmer. Later that same night, Dahmer killed and dismembered Sinthasomphone and kept his skull as a souvenir. -
Zombies
He began killing around one person each week by the summer of 1991. Dahmer was using the idea that he could turn his victims into “zombies” to have youthful submissive sexual partners. He used many different techniques, such as drilling holes into their skull and injecting hydrochloric acid or boiling water into their brains. Soon, residents of Oxford Apartments complex began noticing awful smells coming from Dahmer’s apartment, as well as loud noises from falling objects. -

It was later assumed that he practiced necrophilia and cannibalism. A total of seven skulls were found in his apartment as well as a human heart in the freezer. An altar was also constructed with candles and human skulls in his closet. -
Jeffrey's arrest
On the day of his arrest, Dahmer attempted to lure Tracy Edwards into his home. While inside the home, Edwards was forced into the bedroom by Dahmer with a butcher knife. During the struggle, Edwards was able to get free and escape out into the streets where he flagged down a police car. When the police arrived at Dahmer’s apartment, Edwards alerted them to the knife that was in the bedroom. Upon entering the bedroom pictures of dead bodies and dismembered limbs allowed the officers to cuff him. -
