In Part 2 of our case study on Jeffrey Dahmer, we move beyond the timeline of the crimes and examine his developmental background. We look at his childhood, family dynamics, early behaviors, and periods of isolation to understand how his trajectory developed. From both a behavioral and psychological perspective, we assess what these factors may—and may not—tell us.

We begin our analysis of Jeffrey Dahmer by reviewing the timeline of his crimes and the circumstances surrounding each victim. As we walk through the series of murders, we examine the investigative context at the time and discuss several missed opportunities that might have allowed law enforcement to identify Dahmer earlier. Throughout this series, we will examine the case through both behavioral and psychological perspectives to better understand the offender and his crimes.

In this special episode of The Consult, I’m joined by retired FBI agent Jerri Williams, host of FBI Retired Case File Review, to revisit my favorite film of all time, The Silence of the Lambs.Inspired by The Rewatchables podcast, we break down the movie through the lens of real FBI policies and protocols—what it gets right, what it gets wrong, and how Hollywood’s version of the Behavioral Analysis Unit compares to the real thing.
