A Reluctant Serial Killer?
I caught part of Stone Phillip's old interview with Jeffrey Dahmer last night. What a peculiar guy. I was following everything "Jeff" said until he fell into "I have accepted Jesus Christ as my personal savior" schtick. Otherwise, he described his unbelievable behavior in a detached narrative. He seemed to realize that what he did was not normal and technically not OK, yet his desires were so woven into his personality that he could be only partially objective.
He said around age 15 most of his thoughts were so abnormal that he could not share them with anyone. He believes everyone is accountable for their own actions and therefore his parents are not to blame for his murders. His reasoning becomes flawed, though, as he dismisses evolution and genetics as "fiction," claiming God is the beginning and end of everything.
My hopes were briefly raised when he accepted responsbility for his actions, but his reasoning was flawed. What a peculiar guy. He said his behavior became totally outside of his control. He was incredibly matter-of-fact in his description of his desire for total control over his victims, adding, "that's why i used the drill and uric acid, to try to make them into zombies, but it didn't work," almost as an aside, or an afterthought. No reaction to the unbelievableness of what he'd just said.
Reluctant serial killer? No. Almost, perhaps, but no.
