“It’s a process, it doesn’t happen overnight . When you depersonalize another person and view them as just an object. An object for pleasure and not a living, breathing human being. It seems to make it easier to do things you shouldn’t do.” This quote was said by Jeffrey Dahmer, a mentally disturbed man who committed a series of murders, rapes, and tortures. Jeffrey Dahmer was born on May 21st, 1960 in West Allis, Wisconsin. He was a relatively normal kid until his little brother David was born.

Promising his victims alcohol and a job, they willingly followed Jeffrey home. Once inside, Dahmer drugged their beer and eventually ended up killing them. Everyone of his murders happened similar to that. Dahmer told police that all 20+ victims he had were all borderline criminals so nobody would notice or care about their disappearance as much.

Necrophilia is sexual intercorse with or attraction toward corpses. Cannibalism is the act of humans eating the flesh or internal organs of another human being.

Dahmer took the body to his grandmother's basement and had sex with the corpse and masterbated on the body. After, Dahmer experienced with chemical disposal. Jeffrey put the body in hydrochloric acid and this caused it to slowly disintegrate eventually turning the body into liquid. If he didn't want to dispose of it that way, he would dismember the body and boil the pieces and eat them. On may 26, 1991, Dahmer killed a young boy and performed oral sex on his corpse before liquefying his body and flushing it down the toilet.

Dahmer took the young man back to his parent’s house where he proceeded to get him drunk. As soon as Hicks tried to leave, Dahmer killed him with a blow to the head from a barbell. He dismembered the body and buried it in plastic bags behind his parent’s house.
Additionally, he experimented with lobotomies, drilling holes into victims' brains while they were still alive and injecting their brains with muriatic acid.
