Gay bars in Milwaukee, Wisconsin are banning customers from wearing Jeffrey Dahmer Halloween costumes, because the famed serial killer preyed on his victims in the city's LGBT community. The convicted serial killer famously targeted the gay male community in the Wisconsin city for a decade-and-a-half in the late seventies to early nineties. During that time, he killed 17 men and boys, whose bodies he dismembered and sometimes ate. Interest in the slaughter has spiked with the release of the Netflix drama Dahmer starring Evan Peters, which sparked a fresh wave of interest in the grim case. Those donning Dahmer get-ups...

MADISON — In the city of La Crosse, medical and mental health professionals who attempt to “change behaviors or gender expressions” of minors can face a $1,000 fine, even lose their licenses. In short, they either toe the liberal line on gender transitions for children or pay the price. Now the city of La Crosse faces a lawsuit for infringing on the First Amendment rights of health care workers. The Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty (WILL) on Thursday filed a federal lawsuit against the city on behalf of Joy Buchman, a licensed mental health professional and owner of Kinsman...

Just as someone else’s culture shouldn’t be your costume, someone else’s trauma shouldn’t be, either. eBay has moved to ban the sale of Jeffrey Dahmer costumes ahead of Halloween, Buzzfeed News reports. Dahmer’s story has surged back into the public eye—often to exploitative effect—with Ryan Murphy’s record-breaking new Netflix series Dahmer — Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story. “These items are prohibited for sale on our site and we are removing them,” a spokesperson from eBay tells Buzzfeed of the ban on Dahmer-inspired attire. The spokesperson also confirms that eBay continues to actively remove listings from the platform—anything that violates its...

Dahmer victim's sister calls walking tour 'evil'By DINESH RAMDE updated 3/4/2012 2:42:01 PM ET MILWAUKEE — The sister of one of Jeffrey Dahmer's 17 victims joined others in protesting a Milwaukee walking tour of the serial killer's haunts Saturday, calling out to tour organizers that they were "just as evil" as Dahmer himself. **SNIP** The new walking tour of places where Dahmer trolled for victims drew attention this week after criticism prompted online deal-maker Groupon to take down a promotion for discounted tickets. But Bam Media said it would not cancel what it calls a legitimate exploration of criminal history....

Video entertainment pertaining to historic events: that's the ticket. This week, besides "Copying Beethoven," "Dahmer" was in the mix. How disturbing to discover the account in no way depicts the offender's arrest, let alone his trial, conviction, and subsequent death at the hands of another criminal. It also lacks in accuracy. Today happens to be the anniversary of Dahmer's death. He was pronounced dead at 9:11 a.m. November 28, 1994. The occasion of seeing this video sparked a minor inquiry into the whole situation, looking for sources and documentation that might lead to further understanding as to the details...

Investigating one of the nation's most prominent unsolved murders, a Hollywood detective pitched softball questions and fed homemade muffins to a serial killer. He asked: Did you kidnap freckled 6-year-old Adam Walsh from a Sears in 1981? "Nothing to do with it,'' Jeffrey Dahmer answered, taking another muffin. The word of Dahmer, a sociopath who stashed severed heads in his refrigerator, was instrumental in Hollywood police deciding he was not Adam's killer despite contradictory statements from two witnesses.

No matter how you cut it up, eating people is simply wrong - By Barbara Amiel (Filed: 08/12/2003) Not a few modern cannibals in the West have been German and it would be tempting to say, after reading the testimony of self-confessed cannibal Armin Meiwes, now on trial in Kassel, that eating people is a peculiarly German thing to do. But there have been some American and British cannibals, with the odd Russian as well. What may be an EU speciality is that apparently cannibalism is not a crime - though using wooden chopping boards may be. Somehow, one would...

Taylor Schabusiness appeared in court on July 5, 2022. (Image via screengrab from the Law&Crime Network.) The Wisconsin woman charged with chopping off her sex partner’s head, putting it in a bucket, and directing the authorities where to look for the victim’s body parts pleaded not guilty in a Brown County courtroom on Tuesday. Taylor Denise Schabusiness, 24, of Green Bay is charged with first-degree intentional homicide — Wisconsin’s highest murder charge — along with mutilating a corpse and third-degree sexual assault. The charges stem from what’s alleged to have been a meth-fueled episode of sex and murder in late...

Wills County, IL – By now, most people have heard of Indiana abortionist Ulrich Klopfer and his ungodly hoard of 2,246 “medically preserved” aborted babies found stored on his property in Illinois. Klopfer was an unsavory character who operated three abortion facilities in Fort Wayne, Gary, and South Bend, Indiana, at the peak of his career. His clinics were repeatedly cited for failing to pass heath inspections. Klopfer’s Indiana medical license was suspended in 2016 for failing to report suspected child sex abuse on a 13-year old, but gave abortions to little girls as young as ten who were brought...

We have seen how abortion facilities oppose clinic regulations, even the most commonsense ones. Yet there is a long list of abortion centers that have been found to be operating under disgusting, filthy conditions. We’ve seen abortion supporters dismiss such cases and focus on pro-lifers as the enemy, rather than stopping the abortion practitioners who have hurt women. Ignored is the fact that doctors like Kermit Gosnell were allowed to fly under the radar, injuring and killing women because of the lack of clinic regulations and oversight. Keep in mind that Gosnell had already killed one woman and injured many...

Shirley Hughes, the mother of one of murderer Jeffrey Dahmer’s victims, is calling out the use of Dahmer’s image for Halloween costumes this year as being exploitative, according to a report by TMZ. In an interview with the outlet, Hughes said it was triggering to see people dress like the man who took her son, Tony Hughes, away. Tony Hughes was a deaf man who was murdered by Dahmer. Dahmer was eventually convicted of killing 17 men between the 1970s and 1990s. His other horrific deeds included sexual assault, the mutilation of his victims, and sex crimes involving minors. Authorities...

Republican presidential candidate former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee said on Friday during an appearance on Fox News that serial killers got better treatment by the American justice system than the Kentucky county clerk who was jailed for refusing to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples. Huckabee has been one of the most vocal presidential candidates to defend Rowan County, Kentucky clerk Kim Davis after she was jailed Thursday on contempt of federal court. The ex-governor brought up the comparison to serial killers during an interview on Fox's "America's Newsroom." "Jeffery Dahmer got bail, the Boston Stranger got bail, John Wayne...

Serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer was done in by his uncontrollable lust for human flesh, the man who whacked him in prison 20 years ago told The Post, revealing for the first time why the cannibal had to die. Christopher Scarver — who fatally beat the serial killer and another inmate in 1994 — said he grew to despise Dahmer because he would fashion severed limbs out of prison food to taunt the other inmates.

Netflix has been slammed by viewers after adding an LGBTQ tag to the new Jeffrey Dahmer series, who have raged: 'this is not the representation we're looking for'. Many called out the streaming platform - who have now removed the tag - saying they were 'gobsmacked' and 'disgusted' at the choice. The series follows the infamous Milwaukee serial killer who murdered 17 people between 1978 and 1991 - many of whom were young, gay African Americans.
