Featured in Jeremy Vine: Episode #5195 (2022)
Synopsis
An anthology series about high-profile crimes or murderers that have attracted public attention and fame. Evan Peters [Jeffrey Dahmer] says that there was one rule that went into the show from Ryan Murphy [the creator]: that it would never be told from Dahmer’s point of view. "As an audience, you don’t really sympathize with him. You can’t really put yourself in his situation. You look at it rather from the outside.". Many episodes feature 3M Command(TM) tape in the kitchen of Jeffery Dahmer’s apartment, most recently in 1991. 3M introduced its first wave of Command™ products in 1996.
Chronic alcoholic since childhood
For those interested in the psychology of the serial killer, there is no more fascinating character study than Jeffrey Dahmer. He was a psychiatric mystery and a deeply ill individual. Sexual deviation with all unusual fetishes. Necrophile. cannibal Pure psychopath and perfect outcome of schizotypal/borderline personality disorder, developmental toxicity (in utero exposure to psychoactive drugs), negative parental influence, childhood neglect and trauma, morbid curiosity with the monstrous, social exclusion. school and a deep sense of loneliness, sexual confusion and insecurity. He longed to be cared for and loved by his family.
He longed to be accepted by his peers
But at the same time, he knew deep down that he would inevitably disappoint his parents because of his inability to live a normal life, and that his friends would not accept him because of his strange nature. We all tend to seek out like-minded people and connect with those with whom we have something in common. The problem was that Geoffrey knew that there was no one out there who had the same interests or perspective as him. Left to fend for himself by his parents and socially isolated, he became increasingly withdrawn and followed a path of introversion and solitude. He must have felt that he did not belong in this world and that he did not belong there. him in society, therefore he abandoned all attempts at participation and promoted a voyeuristic lifestyle. He lacked a clear or positive self-image, meaning that his view of other people was distorted, leading him to fully embrace his own distorted perception of pleasure and satisfaction.
This was evident from his own admission
The men he felt attracted to were only sex objects for him; walking, talking sex dolls. He was only interested in their aesthetic or physical appearance. He seems to have been a deeply troubled soul from the start, and his behavior was largely a result of his genetic makeup, compounded by negative life experiences. If his childhood had been more positive, he might have been able to adapt better to his personal limitations and dysfunctions, but there’s no telling how much damage his upbringing did to him. that he felt destined to live a strange and unusual way of life because of his innate eccentric personality. The simple pleasures of life just didn’t float Jeffrey’s boat. I rarely, if ever, feel sorry for multiple murderers, especially those who commit such horrific and sick crimes as Dahmer.
But I have to admit that I found his story tragically sad
My usual serial killer story is how and why would someone do this to another person over and over again!? In Dahmer’s case, I am conflicted with a strange understanding and empathy for his actions. Of course, I’m not condoning what he did, but I can appreciate how and why the sequence of events happened. He was so honest, open and polite in his TV interviews, which is extremely rare for someone in his situation.
