The Trial of Jeffrey Dahmer (1992)

Incredibly rare courtroom footage of serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer‘s 1992 murder trial… Dahmer’s confession and life story are read into the court transcript and then, one by one, Dahmer’s victims are named and the horrific actions associated with that name are laid out in grizzly fashion for the jury to hear…

Jeffrey Dahmer was officially indicted on 17 murder charges, which were reduced to 15. The murder cases were already so notorious that the authorities never bothered to charge him in the attempted murder of Edwards. His trial began on January 30, 1992. With evidence overwhelmingly against him, Dahmer pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity. The trial lasted two weeks. The court found Dahmer sane and guilty on 15 counts of murder and sentenced him to 15 life terms, totaling 957 years in prison. At his sentencing hearing, Dahmer expressed remorse for his actions, and said that he wished for his own death. In May of that year, Dahmer was extradited to Ohio, where he entered a plea of guilty for the murder of his first victim, Steven Hicks.  Amazon
