- WI V. DAHMER (1992) - Milwaukee police Officer Joseph Gabrish & Lt. Kenneth Meuler take the stand. Joseph Gabrish and John Balcerzak were the two Milwaukee police officers who handed a naked, bleeding Konerak Sinthasomphone, 14, over to serial killer and cannibal Jeffrey Dahmer.
Dahmer’s neighbor Glenda Cleveland, and other witnesses at the scene tried to stop them. Sinthasomphone was murdered by Dahmer shortly thereafter.

I am in federal law enforcement, strongly support law enforcement, and to this day am disgusted and enraged that these two fools were reinstated (with back pay, to boot), rather than permanently banned from ever serving as police officers, imprisoned, and sued for every miserable penny to their name.
Well said.
Thank you. Same here.
😊😊😊
@@lilith69759 😅😅
You can’t admit to the systemic problem with law enforcement and then say strongly support in the same sentance.
It’s sickening how they keep showing respect for the killer by calling him “Mr. Dahmer” but the poor victim is disregarded as the “Asian male”. Shows how much they really even cared for his safety.
😢
Yes it’s so sad…I’m thinking because he was really a minor they can’t say his name idk😩
Maybe they had to so he would devulge more information about the others he killed. As more and more people kept popping up that he confessed about.
Not trying to make excuses because I do agree with you. "Crazy Killer" would be more fitting, however, you cannot use that term to address him either.
Should have called him "asian child" because he was a that just a sweet innocent child.
I feel really bad for the 14 year old.. Imagine having a guy drug you and drill holes into your skull. You miraculously escape, and even manage to alert the police. The officers then carry you back into the apartment to let the killer finish you off. I can't imagine what that must have felt like.. Those officers should have lost more than just their jobs. Later on they were reinstated with backpay. What a joke
My heart goes out to the families
Ridiculous!!!
Not only reinstated but one is currently Chief of police
I don’t even think the kid was capable of assessing the situation he was in, he was drugged and there was acid in his brain. There’s no way he knew what was going on
It felt like nothing he pored acid into his scull
to me this is unacceptable! gosh..poor boy. poor families..imagine the suffering
Not only did they fail that little boy, they are the reason for all of the deaths after him as well. Absolutely horrible
Facts
Why didn't the little boy speak up? Just wondering
@@user-pl1hz8pu1p he was drugged so there's that just sayin!
@@user-pl1hz8pu1p his skull just got drilled so…
@@user-pl1hz8pu1p he was drugged and had acid drilled into his brain before he was found. He was in a zombie like state but could not speak. Dahmer told the cops he was just drunk
This is so sad. They didn’t care at all about Konerak. He lost his life because no one cared to do their job correctly. May his young soul continue to rest in peace.
Poor kid. The cops that let him go back with Jeff should have been charged as accomplices. Unfortunately fate had Konerak before Jeffrey got his hands on him.
I think these human trash cops were jealous of the killer
They HAD to have known he was a kid. They COMPLETELY failed him.
I see it a little differently Gregory. I hope his young soul finds peace by keeping the the incompetent cops daily reminded by torturing their callous souls . As for the truth about Konerak that night the answer is simple. They did not CARE for it. Arrogance & incompetence is what those type of cops are fueled by. For them to actually show a lick of concern of the welfare of the "asian male" who be just too much of an ask. They wouldn't even listen to the women who told those cops that she had more information about what was going on... basically he just "shoed & shushed" her away .Unfortunately this arrogance & incompetence led directly to the demise of Konerak ... or the "asian male. I do hope that young Konerak's soul and the memory of it haunts those guys for all of their days. No Excuses. Poor Police work. Even poorer human work. I hate to candy coat it.
@@mommymommie
Mommy, they just did not care about him. I say in no way should they have left him with Dalmer w/o any I.D. or any statement from the kid. And they paid nothing for their incompetence . Makes me sick.
What’s even more insane is that if the cops would have just checked Dahmers ID they would know that he was already on parole/probation for molesting the Asian kid he’s with own brother!!! Like Dahmer literally went to prison for molesting that kids brother about a year earlier. I feel so bad for that family. The police failed them so badly.
Correct- couldn’t have checked even his ID?!
Wow absolutely thanks for the information
He gave a fake name for konerak so there was no connection but they didnt do a background check on dahmer then they could see he was a sex offender …
:(
The ingredients were all thier for dahmer to be caught that night so many blatant reasons the stupid ignoramoous
There's no way Konerak looked 19-20 as a 14 year old. In his photo they showed he didn't look a day over 12.
Exactly 😡😡
Also he was naked. There’s no way that Konerak had the chest/shoulder width or muscle development of a 19/20 year old man. Those cops should have been charged and convicted as accessories to this crime. If they had done their jobs properly Konerak AND EVERY VICTIM AFTER HIM would still be alive.
To be fair, I probably looked about 14-15ish when I was 19
when was the photo taken? and how does it relate to what the officers saw that night? worth pointing out that Dahmer had pictures of him sober awake and willingly posing nude, corroborating his story that this was his boyfriend.
They say that to make it seem like he was grown so they have no responsibility for him smh
I can’t stand this man! Stop saying he was “intoxicated”. He was drugged and tortured Sir 😡
If someone is drugged without you knowing it then they would definitely appear to be intoxicated. My issue is that these two cops seemed to have planned what they were going to say beforehand. I mean, seriously, how can you not notice blood from a child who just had their head drilled? These two corrupt and negligent cops should have been punished, as well as those responsible for giving their jobs back.
For what I understood is that dahmer drill on top of the head not the sides so it makes sense there wasn’t any blood coming down his head and agree the officers really thought he was intoxicated cause how would they know he was drugged
the injured boy was seen and the call described a young male beaten and bleeding from the anus and all the police saw was a boy with a scrape on his knee.
@@myhatmygandhi6217 He was bleeding from the anus. The head drilling came after.
@@godisreality7014 He drilled into his skull twice. Once before the police encounter and once after
I wish they stopped referring to him as ‘an asian male’ he. Was human he had a name…the fact they only saw him as an asian male was the reason he died..he had a name, he was loved
They have to do that for court for legal reasons due to the age of the victim
right
@@bubblegumbabeface6629 I don’t think it was due to age. They are saying “Asian male” because they are recreating the timeline of how the night unfolded so until they knew who he was he WAS an “asian male” until he was identified.
typical white trash cops/ i know the 90s was a different time more racism and homophobia. being part asian myself It pisses me off hearing the "Asian Male"
They have more respect to the killer that poor kid.calling him mr.and calling poor kid Asian man.
2 worst cops in history. No common sense to call an ambulance. Returned an injured BOY to a serial killer. Let that sink in
and got their jobs back. how the hell does that happen.
@@lucasteroni6097corruption.
@gtheop there were other cops just as bad, those that did not check J. Dahmer's bags in his car .. I can't get over it .. who goes for a drive in the night to dispose of garbage bags - who? .. what kind of idiot cops let him go without checking what was in those bags? .. so many lives could've been spared
@@sandrapisani9225 If the whole production were not so elaborate you could ask yourself if this is not a complete work of fiction from start to finish.
An read my comments they all lieing in this post court house!!! 😡🤬🤬🤬🤬
"Balcerzak served as president of the Milwaukee Police Association from 2005-2009".....that's literally unbelievable for me. That poor boy's family, omg.
Sick people
Mind boggling... really good to show, it's all about who you know.
everyone who kept them at work are quilty - the whole daprtment is quilty
Officer ball sack...
I’m so glad the prosecutor emphasized that Konerak had a name, and made him say it!
The fact that he was naked and incoherent is enough to make into an investigation. I hope these police officers felt guilty for the rest of their lives
Those cowards feel no remorse. They are so sick.
Not to mention running down the street screaming HELP!!! There was obviously something more going on here
I believe The black women that call the police even said to the Stupid officers that he was bleeding and they still didn’t do anything!!
Yeah just dismissed him as drunk and crazy. Those cops are accomplices imo. Lazy stupid I don't know which.
@@Wiseguy429 bleeding out if his rectum!!
This is racism and homophobia PERIOD. They didn’t even ask the boy his name nor his address? So you just took what this man said at face value and returned him to him where he was then murdered. Is there anything that can be done retroactively? Bc this is horrible
no. and konerak's family filed a lawsuit and lost.
@@BabyMaharaja0 no they got a settlement from the state for 850,000
during Aids , gays were hated by everybody....gay men were speed taking sex fiend perverts and nobody had compassion for that....... and rightly so.
White men should not work in Leo 🚨🚓🚨..if they can't realize that the boy didn't speak 🗣️ English that well. Also had they separated the kid and taken him to the hospital 🏥. The boy would have sang like a jay 🐦... Then Dahmer would have been placed under observation and then notice.. what's happening to all of the men ? They walk in..but they don't walk back out "??? 😳😮😨
@@BabyMaharaja0 They should file again ‼️... Trust me things have changed and the courts would side with the family.
What makes this part tragic is not only that Konerak was a minor but also that he escaped after having his skull drilled and acid poured into his brain....only for the officers to GIVE HIM BACK to J.D! I doubt Stephen King could script something this scary. Sad.
This has haunted me since it was reported decades ago!
This handling by the police i think is likely the most egregious example of horrendous policing in the history of the United States.
Better for the poor child if the cops had just pumped him full of bullets and then cried that he was acting threateningly and resisting, like normal 😔
😒 slavery ..... nevermind
@@prahgres1013 bruh, if you bothered reading a book, the current us police force wasn’t established until awhile after slavery was abolished.
These cops did a terrible job but the fire department messed up massively too, so sad.
NONE OF THEM CARED!!!😑😡
Every one screwed up big time !The monster was well spoken , white , and they took his word for everything!!!! No verification whatsoever, if they just would have ask for ID they would have seen that monster Jet molested the kids brother already. This is soooooo sad
They should have cleaned house. From the rooter to the tooter ! The chief and all officers dispatched ever to Dahmer's address. The police job is to snoop.
@@Mel-wl7nbnone of them knew
The fact that the young Asian boy didn’t respond or say anything the whole time was not a red flag for these police officers! Does anyone know how they couldn’t see the drill hole in his head or was it after this? I feel sick listening to this, it’s so heartbreaking
Right!!!
Dahmer said the hole as tiny and for some Reason no Liquid or Blood came out plus Konerak had longer Hair so probably it wasn't visible, yet he was bleeding from his Anus it's horrible they didn't do anything to help this Boy
Yes. They should have transported him to the hospital 😢
It's extremely hard watching the negligence of these two officers. Really sad.
Sad about 2 of em how about the entirety of law enforcement has become the biggest shame of this once great nation until police started having power trips and government officials backing their every move no matter how much evidence you have against them they walk free get pensions paid leave on taxpayers money who employ the police to
Protect and serve our communitys a lady stated that to a officer who said im done listening to you the moment you said you pay my salary i was done . But why because she only spoke the truth i keep saying the Americans shouldn't have stormed the capital building. In revolt the entire American instead the best revolt would be to have 400 million Americans stop paying taxes as we out number the entire 4 branches of military and police so if we pay no taxes no funds for cops no more laws we dont want what can they do? Arrest half a billion people lol they can't and than people should take over and make the laws since were supposedly a government of the people 4 the people by the people and if we have to all 400 million people renounce citizenship and leave this country falls apart that is how you do it not a single drop of blood would have to be spilled to bad we all dont sitck together
This country is pathetic its medical care is a nightmare where in other countries its free health care twx payers can rest knowing hospitals won't let then die by turning then away because no insurance dont cover that they knoe the police arent violent amd arent killing people Canada uk Switzerland Sweden Netherlands have no death penalties and do not hand out 60 years prison time for embezzlement or shoplifting murder is not as long a prison stay as is tax evasion because the political people dont want the tax we pay going out of there pockets they dont use our taxes for good things we fund the politicians extravagant lifestyle we need police reform medical reform and less non violent offenders in prison for 20 40 Years for stealing while murder is walking free after serving 8 of 11 year.sentance its draconian law in America land of communists
Where was the FBI, this was a serial killer right
YUP its called "WHITE PRIVALEDGE"😏
I so agree!! Terrrible
If you listen to Balcerzak’s testimony and Gabrish’s testimony, their answers are worded exactly the same. Almost as if it was scripted/prepared. They definitely were trying to cover their ass and not divulge anything that would point to their obvious neglect
Their statements were written by their attorneys. 😮
I was thinking about the same … poor little boy they can’t tell me it wasn’t strange to see a naked Asian little boy with a man .. like that .. they think everyone is stupid ??
It´s strange the Examiner did not ask whether blood was coming out of the anus as was reported.
He had a hole in his head and yet the fire department didn't notice after "checking" him? Poor kid the system failed to rescue him. Crazy that they also didn't atleast lightly search his apartment before leaving him there.
There's a interrogation on here you can watch where they found a man passed out on the couch with his girlfriend shot and killed on the floor throughout the interrogation the guys are grilling him telling him his story doesn't make sense only to look at him then realizing he'd been shot in the head also
😢 these police have no respect or remorse
plus it was the frontal bone theres no way the police didnt see it unless it was above his hair line and his long hair covered the hole
@@johnschultz8906 I saw that. SMH, it was heartbreaking. But thank God the officer finally came to his senses and decided to check him out.
@@johnschultz8906 oh my please what the name of it
Ridiculous and disgusting, they didn’t care about the Asian boy to even attempt to help him
Exactly awful policing 😡
They should have taken him to the Emergency room and tried to find an interpreter. How dumb must you be to think that a teenager who's in Highschool is a 20 year old man??? Also the child 🚸 had rectal bleeding and honestly I hope that the boy didn't suffer too much?? Jeffrey Dahmer used a drill on him.. I believe after the police 🚓🚨🚓 left his apartment. SMH 😦
I remember this so well. I was disgusted. He was a small guy. He did not look 19 or 20!! I cannot believe they rehired those officers. Disgusting!! 💔
Can we even imagine his horror as they handed him, in his beaten-to-a-pulp state, back to the monster? Moron uncaring lazy racist cops.
The kid looked like a baby. 😞 Blood coming from a drilled hole in the head and buttocks. Explains a lot about that era, they just don’t care for Gays, Blacks and Asians.
I can’t begin to even imagine the terror this young man felt. He was literally thrown back to the devil knowing full well he was going to die once they left. It sickens me that these useless officers were allowed to get their jobs back. They failed him plain and simple.
I don’t think the poor kid was in his senses he had no awareness because of effect of the drugs.
@@Sikander---Great He might have had some awareness. Otherwise why would he even try to escape
@@sangeetharavindran87 yes. But I meant while the policemen were present in the room he was out of it if he had some awareness he would’ve made some attempt but he was unresponsive.
@@Sikander---Great The ladies who reported him to police said he looked fearful of Dahmer when he appeared. He resisted being picked up by Dahmer to the best he could. But yes, he couldn't express anything verbally. The ladies definitely understood that the boy didn't want to go back with Dahmer. It was the police who understood nothing or didn't want to understand anything. You must watch those ladies interview. Will understand better. It's sad..very sad.
@@sangeetharavindran87 that’s really the fucked up part😢like how can all these people see wtf goin on but two of y’all cannot?? Read the room!! It was definitely pure racism and homophobia
Due to his condition, this young man should have been sent to the ER for eval.
He wasn't sent to ER because cops see many disgusting situations with homosexuals. if they get too involved they lose their jobs for "discrimination."
Yes. Jeffrey created distractions to mislead the people on the scene... Those cop's eat and swallowed every line... Like a pack of hungry dog's.
these were good cops.
And extremely remorseful after he found out what happened.
The police followed all necessarily procedures. The only thing these police should have done was check in on Dahmer's details by radio, and even then, that does not mean Dahmer's crimes would have been discovered. He would have been charged with assault and dragged off to the police station.
If that would have arrested Dahmer they would have been breaking the law....there was no probable cause.
That is why they got their jobs back.
Dahmer DUPED them, just liked he duped other police, a judge, his parole officer, his family, his victims...
Do people really expect these police to have thought that in the house there were dead body parts, severed heads in fridges, etc.? No one would expect that!
They simply thought it was 2 extremely drunk lovers who got into a quarrel and Dahmer provided evidence that they were a couple. They looked into his room and saw nothing. There was no evidence of the young child being hurt except for a small knee injury. How were they to know he was drilled in the head? Or do people walk around a lot with holes drilled in their heads?
If the police are too intrusive, then everyone says they are overstepping the line and infringing on our rights.
Instead of blaming the police, blame Dahmer for causing all of this.
Even the lawyer who prosecuted Dahmer did not believe these police did anything substantially wrong, but all these gooses watch a Netflix show and think they know more than those who were there lol
And the partner off this officer was a homosexual (as confirmed by Pat Kennedy
@@anlace3447 I disagree. There was no way they thought that child looked 18 or 19, he looked like a child. And, even if they were too stupid to recognize that, he was still underage for alcohol. They should questioned whether Dahmer was contributing to a minor at the very least. If they had ran his name, then his conviction would have come up and unless they were the dumbest cops on the planet, that should have been a huge clue that the boy in front of them, that looked like a child, was indeed a child. If you listen to their radio audio after they left him there to die, you can tell how insensitive those cops were. They were absolutely not good cops!
@@mitzistanford9201 - WRONG. Not easy to pinpoint the age of people of other races if you're not used to seeing them. These police officers said there were few Asians in their patrol area. Blame political correctness for the Laotian boy's death. These cops encountered disgusting scenes when called to homosexual domestic disputes and said they often had to look the other way. Otherwise they could lose their jobs for "harassment" or discrimination. Dahmer fooled them, as he fooled many, and probably would've fooled YOU.
Look at the police negligence in this case. 😮 It’s not a coincidence that Dahmer died in the same manner that he killed his first victim yet the avenger represented most of his victims. Killed by a black man.
Karma comes for all.
Sure does and I rejoiced
Mermaid Dreams- Cops see all sorts of SICK situations with homosexuals they have to ignore, or else be fired for harassment or discrimination. Stop making it all about race, bone.head
It sure does 😀.... ⚫🌑🖤🤎

@@anlace3447 Clearly we are watching more than the TV show. There were plenty of times where the cops could have done more, not just this night. He was stopped by police with his first victim, he was drunk. He was already arrested for a few sex crimes, included this victims brother. A man by the name of Mr flowers reports Dahmer and they could have done more. No one is expecting the police to know there were bodies in his home. But I blame Dahmer AND the police. It’s their job to protect the community and fight crime, not facilitate it.
He smelt the alcohol on the boy, but he couldn't smell rotting corpses in the apartment
Cops are useless
Racism played a big part here & I hope that the 14 year olds parents family sued this police department big time!! Handing this victim back to Dahmer was the real crime!!
@cheryll747 absolutely! Racist / homophobic cops! DIsgusting.
Blood on these officers' hands. I hope they are haunted for life through their pure negligence.
If someone can’t speak clearly or respond to questions you shouldn’t leave them to just go about the rest of their day they need to be checked out this is common sense
Exactly
They only noticed a “scuffed knee” ? But the ladies that found him & called them said he was bleeding from his rectum & apparently he had holes drilled into in head. How could the damn cops not see that??? They lied & were being lazy. And the fact that 1 of these guys is a sitting police chief in a Milwaukee suburb 🤯 yikes
Agreed
🥺😢
distraught woman: "OMG look he's bleeding from his rectum and has blood on his testicles"
police officer: "I could look, but that would require me turning my head slightly, and I've already had a long shift"
the whole proceedings were rigged to let the police off the hook.
Am I the only one who notices that they quickly skipped over the female who had information who he asked to "step back". There was no real follow up attempt to find out what she wanted to tell them. Disgusting that the judge didn't pursue it more here.
It is really sad espescially when you take into account that she called the police and had reported damher multiple times before seeing as they were next door naighbors but she was a POC...
Absolutely!!! I made a comment about that failure
The female were black and the police were racist af back then.
Yes, what really happened and how it was recounted here are two different stories.
When did the drinking age become 21 and up? Could he had been charged with giving alcohol to a minor. The cops are saying the victim looked underage and that in itself arises suspicion. I have seen pictures of this kid and he doesn't look 20
The kid looks like a kid. The cops just didn’t care. They were wigged out by the gay aspect
they probably thought he was a twink, lots of gay men try to appear young and look like teens even when they're over 21
I’m not sure when it when buying alcohol became 21. But I agree that poor child did not look 19-20 years old. These guys just didn’t care what so ever. He could have been caught that night had they done their job properly.
That kid was 14
Noone answered you but I think 1984? But Like someone said the cops didn’t even care
They literally got slap on the wrist. Pathetic
Had a chance to save this boy's life and fumbled on all levels. RIP 🌹
The incapacity and lock of interest from the police to stop this man was absolutely disgusting. But the fact that they came back to work long careers after they found out who this killer was, it’s still inconcebible. Unbelievable!!!!
What does that tell you about the just-us "system"?
Every murder after this incident falls on these police officers. If they had investigated him then no other murder would have happened. They should be prosecuted too
One of them became chief police officer...talk about privilege....
It's the fact that no criminal charges have ever been brought against these cowards! They didn't want to catch the gay bug or the Asian bug...
This is what ignorance looks like.
May all victims souls rest peacefully.
Worse than ignorance, this is sheer incompetence and stupidity.
F these cops!!
@@tennesseejed884 Indifference too.
So…. When his parents reported him missing…. And pictures were released…. These police officers didn’t see those pictures and put 2 and 2 together???
I'm 100% sure they didn't even look at him with the way they were stupidly behaving. Total lack of competence and responsibility.
@@dreamer9375 I agree, the impression they all make, including the prosecution is: we could not care less, don´t bother us.
To think that inside he was screaming for help but couldn’t speak or convey any signs.
Ikr...that's the most heartbreaking part he had enough wherewithal to get out but just couldn't speak smh I hope he's in heaven visiting their dreams EVERY night
Exactly these ass holes should be jailed .
I think 🤔 he drilled the hole 🕳️ in his head 🗣️ maybe after the police left? Don't recall all of the details...
@@gigigiseleworld before and after
It’s crazy.. stumble out onto the street to be met with police AND a bunch of fire fighters helping with first aid and still get taken back to your nightmare. It reminds me of the feeling you get when you’re asleep in a dream and have no energy to do anything.
It's utterly ridiculous that these cops gross negligence did not result in their termination & revocation of their pension!
They were fired but sued and got their jobs back
Stephanie Lazarus murdered someone and went to prison and was still allowed to collect pension
It is nit surprising in America, they are white officers and believed the white man over the black female witness. They didn’t care because the victim was not white either.
Are they still alive today those officers?
It is a shame how these officers get away with stuff dammer should have been caught alot early then he was
That poor kid probably felt some relief getting out of Dahmers apartment but as the drugs were affecting him he couldn’t respond to anyone. Absolutely horrifying what that poor kid went through. Also, the cop says it was a clean apartment. Wth!! People said it smelt like dead bodies!! Such incompetence which caused the needless death of a young man.
According to some reports, Dahmer's neighbours didn't complain that his apartment smelled of flesh, they only believed it to smell of urine, which, while unhygienic, didn't feel like cause for concern.
It didn’t smell like dead bodies it was a Chemical smell don’t believe everything the Netflix series does
@@elenishupperd8393 I’m not watching the Netflix show. I’ve read that his apartment smelled bad. I assumed it did with all the body parts he kept.
@@elenishupperd8393 exactly.
Think of meat going really bad in an unplugged freezer outside in 100 degree heat outside. That's how it probably smelled but stronger since inside the apartment.
The girl who found him said, he had blood coming from his rectum and head. These officers never saw that!! Sickening!!
He was checked out by the fire department
Horrible!!
@@limerind7493 they suck too then
It's an embarrassment that these clowns could have their jobs back with back pay. But no matter how unfair it is, they still have to live with the fact that they led a boy to his murder. Theres no way thats not eating at them.
Very fitting that it would eat at them
I don't think so. It depends on their physce. Like for eg. Dahmer felt no remorse.
@@sangeetharavindran87 well yea but lets not act like these cops were evil. They were just completely negligent
@@justphil.4698 I am not saying they are evil, just that we don't know their physce. Some people experience regret for sometime, some for a life time, some don't feel regret in order to protect their mental well being. I am afraid these police office officers might belong to the latter category. But I will never know for sure.
@@sangeetharavindran87 idk. I think any decent person would feel awful knowing they let a kid get acid poured into his skull, raped and dismembered. That would haunt anyone with a conscience
Isn’t it possible to start a petition to get these cops arrested or something? I don’t know how to do it but I am heartbroken over this. This is disgusting..
unfortunately, i doubt it. it’s been 31 years since jeffery was arrested, and 30 years since his murders went to trial. these officers have likely retired by this point, and even if they have gone on to live with the guilt of what they’ve done, it would be unlikely that there is anything that the american justice system can do to bring these men to justice. they’ve both likely lived a life of privilege as officers.
if you want to do something, support the families of the victims by NOT watching the new netflix documentary, because one of the families-the isbells-have come out against it for its reenactment of rita isbell’s emotional breakdown in court. there are so many other documentaries about dahmer that you can watch that do not reenact the horrible crimes he committed or the aftermath of them, and other documentaries that have the blessings of families of the victims.
Thank you for the info, I couldn’t agree more. This is really heartbreaking..
Wherever they are now, dead or alive (retired), the world now knows what big morons they were responsible for that caused the victims murder.
I was thinking the same thing It makes me sick to my stomach

WOW! These cops REALLY dropped the ball. In Australia the boy would have at least have been taken to the ER for assessment 😥
An apparent “intoxication” should have resulted in EMS transporting the 14 year old to the hospital. Smh
They were told by JD that he was above 18 I believe he said he was 19... so they didn't have any knowledge of his real age
It appears people are comparing real life to the drama on Netflix which if you watch the testimony of the man that got away, is embellished for entertainment. Its not a documentary. Police deal with drunk & disorderly people all the time, most people wouldn't even allow the cops in their house & tell them to F off. Darmer cooperated, showed evidence the poor victim had come from his apartment, no signs of domestic abuse or crime. The cops legally couldn't take the victim when no crime they where aware of was committed. It's easy to judge with hindsight. Even the victims didn't think there was an issue with him.. until sadly it was too late.
@@beebee1676 wait, reports say the 14y old boy was naked, bruised, bleeding and incoherent... if this is true, then the cops absolutely failed him!
@@melistasy yes but they didn't know he was 14 at the time, people are high all the time. You think it's the first naked high person they have seen. If he was wandering around & Darmer didn't come out & calmly say sorry he's drunk & his belongings & a photo of him wasn't in the apartment the police would have taken different him with them & put him in a cell untilhe sobered up. He had a scrapped knee which fire-fighters attended to & released him from their care. If anything the paramedics should have suggested he be taken to hospital for observation but they didn't. He wasn't causing a disturbance so Cops have no right to detain him. It's sad the boy was unable to indicate he was being held under duress. His life could have been saved. Cops can only do so much in what appeared to be a domestic situation.
@@beebee1676 i know that. However, his condition alone should have warranted them getting him help. The ambulance was sent away by the officers, and had they IDed Dahmer they would've found out he was a sex offender.
So sad, how a 14 year old lost his life, but nearly go away from Dahmer, and the heartless cops, sent him back, he did not look 19 to 20, he looked like a child.
The “Asian Male” reference is killing me🤯 he was a victim, and has a name!
For privacy reasons and the “asian male” being a minor they don’t refer to him by name dumb dumb 🤦🏿
They have to refer him to that since he’s a minor
One more question: how the hell do you sleep at night?
Noticed they never put the 3 women on the stand so they can tell you what *really* happened.
Glaring detail there, which was conveniently side-stepped.
First indication that something is seriously wrong is that he could not communicate with you 🤦🏽♂️ You should have never been reinstated as a police officer I hope you see Konerak everyday for the rest of your natural life and think about how you could saved that young boy SMDH
Not been funny but he put his self in that danger it wasn’t the police fault
It is the police fault they should have checked the boy out more extensively.. had they done a thorough investigation they could have saved the boys life… yes the boy did make the juvenile decision to go with Jeffery however it does become the officers fault when they do not conduct a thorough investigation and implement they’re personal Bias decisions based on the sexual preference of the two individuals both Sinthasomphone and Dahmer
@@wawaw1194 oh please 🙄
@@wawaw1194 We all make choices that put us in trouble but that doesn't mean that we deserve to die because of it. Besides you're talking about a kid! It's safe to assume that he didn't know any better.

These dirt bags should have been locked up too
They are
And ones a chief now so sick
the lawyers kept saying, "there was nothing else you could have done, even if you had wanted to, right?"
I know one of the officers became a c.o at the county jail here in milwaukee
Cleveland was also not the one to discover Konerak Sinthasomphone. It was actually Glenda's niece, Nicole Childress, who saw Konerak fleeing from the building, bloodied and bruised, which she explains in this interview. While waiting for the police, Dahmer approached her, and whent he officers arrived, they never asked Childress for any details of what had occurred, instead focusing on Dahmer. While they were asking questions, Childress went to get Cleveland, but when they came back, everyone was gone. We know that tragically, Konerak was murdered by Dahmer not long after this. (though she says she has thought about this encounter every day now).
I wonder if the family of Konerak are still in the US? I can't imagine staying in a country that failed my child in this way.
2 kids. He went to prison and was on parole for Child S.A. on the brother Somsack first. That poor family
Yes they are, and they still live in Milwaukee. They have a very big family.
Most serial killers get away because they have a meticulous M.O. This monster was the sloppiest of them all, came across law enforcement multiple times and was still able to get away with these atrocities. Unbelievable.
White privilege at its finest. Smh. I'm so disgusted
Some getaway because of the color of their skin.
White privilege
Those officer's should be charged with murder.. They assisted Jeffrey Dahmer in the murder of that young man.
He wasn't a man.
He was a child. He was 14 y/o.
BEFORE entering the building and apartment, there were so many red flags and it didn’t take an officer to recognize that. There was a crowd! Then, they enter the building and one officer recognizes that HE smells something offensive, like that of feces!?!?! Tenants of that building stated the odor was in parts of the lobby and hallway as soon as you entered. Once again, ignored! No proper look around at the least!?! A distressed boy, visibly young, physical injuries and bleeding (more than he’s admitting to on the stand), and doesn’t speak and when he does minimally in his native tongue…
Dhamer was sloppy! His murderous ways were so frequent it could not be contained with what he did with the bodies and the need to keep them.
The infuriating part isn’t the lack of “policing” but that the poor policing was due to the racial and socioeconomic make up of the neighborhood. Dhamrr knew that! His comments about the police and crime to the cops shows he was playing them. They didn’t care, didn’t take anything seriously and showed up because of the dispatch. Their actions on every level make this apparent! RIP to all victims and peace of mind to their families, friends and community.
i think it's more that jeffrey is a master manipulator and very well spoken. he doesnt come off as a murderer and or criminal and has an innocent demeanor on the surface. im sure race played into it as well but don't think it was the main reason he was able to get away with it
these were good cops.
And extremely remorseful after he found out what happened.
The police followed all necessarily procedures. The only thing these police should have done was check in on Dahmer's details by radio, and even then, that does not mean Dahmer's crimes would have been discovered. He would have been charged with assault and dragged off to the police station.
But If they would have arrested Dahmer on the basis of the investigation they did do, THEY would have been breaking the law....there was no probable cause.
That is why they got their jobs back.
Dahmer DUPED them, just liked he duped other police, a judge, his parole officer, his family, his victims...
Do people really expect these police to have thought that in the house there were dead body parts, severed heads in fridges, etc.? No one would expect that!
They simply thought it was 2 extremely drunk lovers who got into a quarrel and Dahmer provided evidence that they were a couple. They looked into his room and saw nothing. There was no evidence of the young child being hurt except for a small knee injury. How were they to know he was drilled in the head? Or do people walk around a lot with holes drilled in their heads?
If the police are too intrusive, then everyone says they are overstepping the line and infringing on our rights.
Instead of blaming the police, blame Dahmer for causing all of this.
Even the lawyer who prosecuted Dahmer did not believe these police did anything substantially wrong, but all these gooses watch a Netflix show and think they know more than those who were there lol
And the partner off this officer was a homosexual (as confirmed by Pat Kennedy
@@anlace3447 These were not good cops. They were homophobic and cracked jokes about Dahmer and the young boy afterwards. The kid was clearly underage. The fact they did no background check on him or Dahmer is outrageous. He was bleeding and incoherent. He should have been sent to the hospital
@@anlace3447 here you are with your copy and paste again under every comment section defending these two horrible officers. They have no remorse and do not feel guilty at all. They have been interviewed throughout the years. These are terrible police officers who are homophobic and racist. Do you not forget the phone call that you can hear today and even Netflix played the real phone call where they called in over dispatch after leaving Jeffrey‘s and they said they needed to be deloused? Stop your crap within this comment section defending these horrible police officers. And don’t forget they were allegedly calling the 14-year-old’s father after they were fired harassing him telling him to get back on his boat.
Didn’t smell like dead bodies it was more like a Chemical smell
I’d hate to be him on judgement day.
This is the epitome of incompetent police, how in the world did they get to keep their jobs?
Absolutely total incompetence by law enforcement! RIP to all victims !
You can tell how nervous he is by him not just saying “yes” or “no”
He didn’t care cause he was supposedly gay and he didn’t wanna be around that. I’ve seen ten pictures of that kid.. if anything he looked younger then 14 😢
There's a non communicating naked male bleeding in the street and they send the fire department? But not an ambulance?
Fire Department in Milwaukee always comes out if you call 911 for an injured person. I had an allergic reaction to pralines when I was 10. The fire Department a mile away showed up first. An ambulance ultimately took me to the hospital.
How the hell do you take the word, EVERY word of a guy (Dahmer) who clearly didn’t appear in no way to be the victim and therefore could possibly be the offender. And the situation isn’t solved unless you hear out both parties involved, the boy never was able to confirm to the cops that everything was ok and that Dahmer’s information was accurate of him because he was drugged. They failed that boy miserably.
He should have been transported to the hospital 😢
It was because Dahmer was a white male and this neighborhood was inhabited primarily by people of color. Back when this all came out in 1991, they played the police recorded tapes and the 911 calls and the cops made jokes about it being a gay lovers’ quarrel and they hoped they didn’t catch anything. They also dismissed the concerned callers because the women were black. It was really disgusting.
Maybe the boy did speak or try to leave again and the Police lied about that as well. The whole story stinks to high heaven.
These cops did not follow any proper protocol, it’s so sad man smh he couldn’t speak, just walked him back to his death 😔
The cops were on the plan the cops know they friends with jeffrey

Crazy how the people of the public knew better than these people WITH badges…don’t mean nothing. Reminds me of another case that involved multiple murders..that involved a school, people with badges we’re afraid to go in but parents were willing to risk their lives.
YES !
My God... I can't believe any of those officers cared about the fact that the kid was intoxicated, naked, and had abrasions on his knee or wherever the injury was. they could have saved his life and the lives of others that day.
The way the officer stutters when he asks about the fire department, he then said he told the fire department that the boy was fine and the truck left
That poor little boy. No one cared enough for him. This is sickening to listen to. How could they not do their job properly ? How could this happen ? A well kept apartment ? With body parts hidden ! . That boy was so out of it he would have thought the policeman had taken him to the station . He wouldn’t have been aware of his surroundings at that stage , just so traumatic
Yep and a dead Tony Hughes in the bedroom if I’m not mistaken.
A scuffed knee is all he saw but the people trying to save konerak clearly said he was bleeding 🙄konerak looked like a child compared to Jeffery who was 6 ft and grown asf anybody with a brain could see that wasn’t his “boyfriend”
I can NOT stand to watch this horrible miscarriage of Justice!! It’s just disgusting!! How can those officers live with themselves??!!?? They are not fit to be policemen, then or ever!!! I feel soooo sad for the innocent young victim…….. 😢😢😢😢😢
On around 39:00 - 40:00 the Dt. said that Dahmer made 3 phone calls to Chicago Police - 2 in the evening on July 3rd and 1 in the morning of July 4th. Anybody knows why Dahmer made those phone calls?
To make fake robbery reports so he could have a reason why he missed work
He looked 19-20 years old…… LIEEEEE. The difference between a 14 yo and a 19 yo is STARK.
Exactly 💯
And even if he was, isn’t the legal drinking age 21 at this time?! That’s illegal in itself and shoulda been dealt with and this death wouldn’t have had to happen
The negligence in this police office is screamingly loud!
All these police encounters. People taking the police to his house and nothing showed a pattern?
Escapes Dahmer, only to be returned to him by the police. Just WOW
I dont understand why these 2 officers did not go to jail. If they did their job would stop jeff and stop others getting killed.
This guy was just a waste, they saw a white man, believed what he said and turned Konerack back over to the monster. Konerack had no pubic hairs , yet he thought he was a 19 or 20 year old man Tina told me he had NO HAIR on his genitals, and threatened to arrest her if she didn't move around. Couldn't stand this dude
NO HE DIDNT !!! He clearly looked underage
These two muppets are responsible for that boys death. They have to live with that.
They don't care..
@@gigigiseleworld Whether they care or not, God will avenge and recompense.

Amen to that. Hope Jeff is burning in hell.
Personally, I can't watch this. To many police officers get away with this type of thing. Imagine all the stories we don't know.
For every one that's brought to light, 100's go without sight.
The whole system is corrupt, the hierarchy of satan. Like that film "Internal Affairs". It´s all bogus.
The officer really said that the smell was that of a bowel movement☹. I’ve smelled decomposing animals before and it smells nothing like someone having a bowel movement. He’s just trying to cover his tracks because the interview with Glenda Cleveland, she said that the smell was that of death…like something had died. She also stated that Konerak Sinthasomphone looked every bit of a minor and that she told the office when he was trying to question the young boy that he wasn’t a adult 🥺 She even called several times after the officers left to inquire about the child and just like they ignored her for two months when she called in to inform them about that monster…they did the same thing when she called about that young boy. Had they took her seriously when she called them months before hand, five lives could have been saved!
Contrary to what the the show depicts, Glenda Cleveland didn't actually live in the Oxford Apartments. She resided in a different apartment building next to the Oxford block. Nash' character is a more accurate portrayal of Pamela Bass, who did live in the Oxford Apartments and interacted with Dahmer. She, however, believed him to be kind and personable, even going so far as to accept (and eat) a sandwich from him, not suspecting anything
The dead body of Tony Hughes was on Jeffrey's bedroom floor. When you die your bowels are released. That's what the POS cops were smelling.
Stop going based off a show do some research this dahmer case is 30 years old i swear these people watch a show that is popular and act like they know it all 😂🤦♂️

I try to give law enforcement the benefit of doubt and recognize the difficult job they have, HOWEVER they cannot sit and wonder why people hate them when some conduct themselves in this manner and are not heald to a higher standard.
Agreed!
Pizza delivery drivers die more on the job than cops. Stfu.
A foul smell he disregarded as someone had just gone to the bathroom? Okay! These officers 'respect' privacy so damn much they didn't even go into Dahmers bedroom where the corpse of Tony Hughes had been lying for days! That poor Konerak kid was bleeding from the head. And even if his knees were scraped, wasn't that enough to believe they had domestic issues if they so much believed them to be lovers wich should have made them to protect at least Konerak because he was in no way,shape or form capable of doing so himself st the time. And Dahmer's name should have been well known by the entire policd force. He was a registered sex offender, mr.officer!
Exactly and there is a clear different between the smell of a rotting corpse and the smell of someone going to the bathroom.
Officer B@llsack didn’t check anything, and didn’t listen after asking questions of the crowd. This is gross negligence on their part. The child’s clothing was there because he had escaped…naked. I’m no rocket scientist, but even that ish makes plain sense to me. 🤷🏻♀️

I lived in Madison, Wisconsin in the early 90s. They had a mandatory arrest policy in Madison at that time for domestic violence. I know because somebody I know was arrested after a conflict with a roommate, even though things had calmed down when the police showed up. I don't know if this same mandatory arrest law was the case at this time in Milwaukee. I know some people don't like this mandatory arrest policy for domestic violence, but this horrible case of the poor boy being surrendered back to be murdered illustrates the importance of that law and why it exists in many cities.

It's been over 3 decades since this trial took place, and watching this now for the first time, the collective incompetence surrounding this incident boggles the mind. How was it possible for this to happen?
These cops are worst of humanity. Id put them same bag as Jeffrey
They are the same
Could you imagine being drugged, a hole drilled into your skull by a serial killer. But you somehow manage to escape & even get the police to come. You can't speak & clearly need help, but the officers let the killer carry you back into the place you were just violated, & he finishes killing you.
I'm absolutely dumbfounded as to why & how this was able to happen! Disgusted isn't even remotely close to the feelings I feel right now.
That poor 14 yr old boy was almost out of it, & these incompetent so called officers, simply places him back into the place where he would take his last breath. What the actual FAWK!!!???
Even if they were lovers and he was 19! Why wouldn’t these officers not run dahmers name , they would be able to see that he was a sex offender. In fact he did jail time for this same boy’s brother!! I’m baffled how you his happened and how the officers and fire department weren’t held responsible
I didn’t realize there was an ambulance sent and they examined the boy. They too could have seen his condition.
Now that we know what happened, I wish the family would sue these two LOUSY cops, again and WIN!!! They should have to pay their pensions Back! That police Dept, that COVERED for them, should be reviewed, in regards to this case.
The family did sue and were compensated $850,000. Definitely not enough for the injustice and pain they endured.
