The chilling crimes of Jeffrey Dahmer, known as "The Milwaukee Monster," are brought back into the spotlight with the release of a new docuseries, revealing never-before-heard tapes and insights into his notorious past.

Jeffrey Dahmer's criminal acts shocked the nation. Between 1978 and 1991, this infamous serial killer raped, murdered, and cannibalized 17 young men across Wisconsin and Ohio.

Dahmer's modus operandi involved a grim mix of necrophilia, cannibalism, and the preservation of body parts. In fact, upon his arrest in May 1991, officials at the crime scene discovered several decapitated human heads and numerous dismembered bodies.

In the pursuit of these heinous acts, Dahmer would often frequent gay bars, luring victims to his Milwaukee home under the pretense of drinking and taking nude photographs. After intoxicating them, he would strangle or stab them, dismember their bodies, and engage in acts of cannibalism. Some parts of his victims were even stored in his refrigerator.

Fox Nation is releasing a docuseries titled "My Son Jeffrey: The Dahmer Family Tapes." This gripping series delves deep into Dahmer's life, tracing his early years up to his grim end.

Never-before-heard recordings surface

One of the highlights of the series is the public release of conversations between Jeffrey Dahmer and his father, Lionel. Lionel Dahmer, eager to understand his son's psyche, asked him about his first disturbing fantasy during one of their recorded conversations, Daily Mail reported.

Michael Dubis, a retired detective of the Milwaukee Police Department, recounted in an interview:

"I saw a human head in a small cardboard box in the bottom of Dahmer's refrigerator."

Further investigations revealed even more gruesome discoveries. The Milwaukee police found five severed heads in Dahmer's kitchen. They also found seven skulls, two human hearts, part of an arm, a torso, a tray of blood drippings, and a bag of human organs and flesh on the property.

Dahmer's capture and subsequent events

Dahmer's reign of terror came to an end in July 1991. Tracy Edwards, a 52-year-old man and Dahmer's 18th intended victim, managed to escape after being handcuffed. He flagged down two police officers, leading to Dahmer's arrest. Following a trial in 1992, Dahmer was convicted of 15 murders in Wisconsin.

He also pleaded guilty to the 1978 murder of a hitchhiker in Ohio, Fox News reported.

However, Dahmer's time in prison was short-lived. At the age of 34, while serving 15 consecutive life terms in 1994, Dahmer was bludgeoned to death by fellow inmate Christopher Scarver.

Public fascination with the Milwaukee Monster

The nation's intrigue with Jeffrey Dahmer's crimes has persisted for nearly three decades.

His gruesome acts have been the subject of extensive research, Hollywood drama, and immense trauma for the victims' families.

This story is especially gripping because of Dahmer's dual life: by day, he worked in a chocolate factory, and by night, he pursued his malevolent desires.

The fact that such dark deeds were committed by a seemingly "ordinary" individual has raised countless questions about the human psyche and the factors that can push someone into the abyss of crime.
