Serial Killer
I am going to write about a serial killer. Serial killer’s are people who kill at least 3 people in a period of time at separate places. They usually kill someone then take a short break then kill again. Sometimes when a serial killer attacks they might do sexual acts on that person. Serial killers can be a single person or more. They usually get an adrenaline rush from the murder. Serial killers sometime have unusual patterns of behavior, emotions and thoughts. I chose serial killer Jeffery Dahmer. Jeffery Dahmer was born on May 21, 1960 in a house where he had everything his heart desired. When his parent’s marriage fell apart Dahmer began to have psychological issues. Jeffery had catalyst thoughts. The first person that he killed was a guy he picked up from off the highway. He then took him to his home and they had sex, the guy then wanted to leave, but Jeffery stopped him by hitting him in the head with a barbell. Jeffery cut up his body, placed the parts in a plastic bag the he buried behind his home. Jeffery Dahmer starting having drinking issues and the murders spree continued by killing guy that he either met or kidnapped. A lot of times he masturbated to the dead guy body and sometime body parts. Dahmer murdered 17 men and boys between the years of 1978 and 1991. Majority of is murders took place between the years of 1987-1991. His murder style was to rape and dismember the body parts among other things The police found a lot of evidence; his house was infected with flies and insects. Jeffery Dahmer confessed to some of the murders, and he told police about the human remains he had stored in gallon drums. They found him because a victim went to the police and took them to Jeffery Dahmer’s home. He was given 15 consecutive life term sentencing. On November 28, 1994, Jeffery Dahmer was supposed to clean an area in the jail with two other inmates. Later that

    “After his first murder in 1978, Dahmer did not kill again for 9 years. Over the next 4 years Dahmer would take 15 more lives in horrible and cruel ways. His strategies were to go to gay clubs and pick up men since in the gay community Jeffrey would be considered a "desirable" man” (Weebly, 2016). Dahmer was not clueless when it came to picking out who he was going to take back next to kill. He chose victims that were recognized as criminals because that way it would not bring suspicion to himself or the criminal if they were missing because people would be less likely to notice. He would bring them back to his grandma’s house at the time or even his own apartment after he got kicked out of his grandmother’s house. He would promise those men sexual acts or favors and even put money down in order to secure them for the…

    I chose Peter Kürten because, as a serial killer, there’s a lot more to him than what his crimes told. Something that sets him apart from most was his sadistic tendencies, meaning he received sexual pleasure from inflicting pain and other brutal acts on someone. While in mid brutality, Kürten would reach a climax in his sexual excitement, this lead some to go as far as identifying him to have been a psychopath. Kürten’s unusual obsession with bestiality sets him in a specific category from other sadistic killers. The slitting of throats of sheep and goats during intercourse was what he most enjoyed, leading to his infamous calling card later found on the bodies of his human victims. Saliva smears would later be found on their bodies, indicating…
