Meet the man who killed Jeffrey Dahmer and the sole reason he said he did it.

Glamtush reports that Netflix viewers have been gripped by the new biographical crime drama around Jeffrey Dahmer. Dahmer – Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story looks at the life of the killer, known as the ‘Milwaukee Monster’ and his trail of murders.

This online news platform understands that the American was beaten to death while in prison for committing the murder and dismemberment of seventeen men and boys between 1978 and 1991.

Evan Peters portrays the serial killer and is sure to receive many honours for doing so – but the series cuts off before Dahmer’s death, which came about three years after he entered the Columbia Correctional Institution.

The man who did it – Christopher Scarver – was also serving time in the prison for murder and believed to be schizophrenic.

 

On the morning of November 28, 1994, Dahmer left his cell to conduct his assigned work alongside Scarver and another inmate, Jesse Anderson.

They attended the prison gym, but at around 8.10am, Dahmer was discovered on the floor of the bathrooms with extreme head wounds.

It was later discovered that he had been bludgeoned with a metal bar and had his head repeatedly struck against the wall in the assault by Scarver.Although Dahmer was still alive and was rushed to a nearby hospital, he was pronounced dead one hour later.

Anderson had been beaten with the same instrument and died two days later from his wounds.

Immediately after attacking both men, Scarver, who was thought to be schizophrenic, returned to his cell and informed a prison guard: “God told me to do it. Jesse Anderson and Jeffrey Dahmer are dead.”.

According to an 2015 interview with The New York Post, Scarver said that Dahmer playing with his food irritated him and other inmates.

On top of that, there was a belief that Dahmer and Anderson had murdered for “unacceptable reasons”.
