Episode 44: The Milwaukee Cannibal

**TRIGGER WARNING**

Typically, we do not get too graphic with the crimes of our subjects. However, in this episode, we do.

By the evening of July 23, 1991, the evening news in Milwaukee came out regarding the arrest of a man, the night before, with various body parts found in his apartment. Soon, the world would read in horror of the atrocities committed by Jeffrey Dahmer, soon coined “The Milwaukee Cannibal.” Each day after his arrest more details would emerge of his monstrous crimes.

In Part 1, with their guest, Mira Manni, Denise and Zelda discuss all the events that would lead to Dahmer’s arrest and what happened once he went to prison. Then, they discuss what happened next with his mother and father. Over the years, Dahmer’s mother has been demonized, but is it really all that simple?

Come back next week for Part 2 when we go deep into his family tree, a tree filled with secrets and surprises.
