Dahmer states that he had no recollection of the crime. It would be approximately nine years until Dahmer struck again, but the next time even more ruthless than before (“Jeffrey Dahmer”). Dahmer was known for killing males, even choosing a selected few at gay bars. One of Dahmer’s first victims in his murder spree was Steven Tourmi, whom he found at a gay bar dubbed Club 219. After going back to the Ambassador Hotel, Dahmer states that he could not recall the previous night’s events but that Tourmi was dead with blood flowing from his mouth. Dahmer then performed necrophilia on the corpse after bringing it back to his house. After sexual intercourse with the carcass, he dismembered the remains and threw them away. After this horrid murder, he served eight years due to exploitation of a child and second-degree assault. While in prison, Dahmer admitted to hating black people; it later came to light that Dahmer killed Anthony Sears, a black twenty-four year old male.
