    Jeffrey was not very popular in high school. He played the clarinet, tennis, and wrote for the school paper. He also had a history of alcohol abuse, which will continue for the rest of life. A classmate recalls Jeffrey drinking cups of scotch at his desk. Though unpopular, he was known for a lot of pranks including bleating like a sheep, shouting out things at strange times, and faking epileptic fits. In addition around age fourteen, his compulsions in regard to necrophilia and murder began. Dahmer claims that, “around age fourteen or fifteen, I started to have obsessive thoughts of violence intermingled with sex.” Throughout high school, he continued to collect dead animals. Jeffrey remembers in ninth grade during a biology class, “…we had the usual dissection of a fetal pig. I took that ham and kept the skeleton and I just started branching out to dogs,…

    Jeffery was born on May 21, 1960 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The profile of Jeffery Dahmer is unlike any cookie cutter serial killer, as he was not abused as a small child with the exception of claims that he was molested by a neighbor, which Dahmer said was untrue. Damher 's childhood was fairly normal. His mother Joyce had some psychological problems, but he had a loving father who tried to be communicative with his quiet and isolated son.

    When I was a little kid I was just like anybody else. I was born in Milwaukee in May 21, 1960, the son of Lionel and Joyce Dahmer. At the age of six after some minor surgery, which coincided with the birth of my brother, there seemed to be a change in me. At the time a career opportunity for my father resulted in my family moving from Iowa to Ohio. 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. Though the thoughts were like arrows, shooting through my mind from out of the blue. By the time I was fourteen the compulsions to murder and necrophilia began to occur.…

    Jeffery Dahmer was born to Joyce Annette and Lionel Herbert Dahmer, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on May 21, 1960. He led a pretty normal childhood, until the age of 10, when his parents noticed he began to become withdrawn from the world around him. Socially he was inept and was extremely shy and awkward. Upon their observations, his parents tried to force Jeffery into interaction with other children, but this did not aid him. Jeffery, however, took an interest in animals from an early age, and he lovingly took care of his family’s dog. In his teen years, however, he began to become intrigued with their inner-workings and took dead animals off the side of the road and dissected them in the forest behind his house in secret. Around the age of 14 or 15, Dahmer later claimed that he began to have sexual fantasies intermingled with his grim dissections of these animals. His father believed his nature as a serial killer was a result of him going through puberty and developing his intrigue and love to kill simultaneously, eventually mixing together to create a sadistic love for murdering. As he got older, his fantasies grew stronger and more focused. He devised a plan to knock out a daily jogger and lie next to him. When the jogger did not show up the next day on his daily route, Dahmer decided not to attempt it a second time. For the most…
