Who Was The Victim Of Jeffrey Dahmer, Jeremiah Weinberger?

Jeremiah Weinberger was famous as one of Dahmer’s victims.

A native of Puerto Rico, he lived in Chicago in the 1990s and worked as a customer service representative for a video store, according to USA Today.

“He loved art and was very meticulous,” his roommate Tim Gideon recalled.

“His desk was always straight and he knew where everything was. He always dressed well and was always concerned about what he was wearing and how he looked.”

Weinberger was last seen on July 6, 1991.

What happened to Jeremiah Weinberger?

Just days after Dahmer killed 20-year-old Matthew Turner, he met Weinberger in Chicago.

The two then took a Greyhound bus to Milwaukee to spend the weekend together.

However, Weinberger’s weekend getaway quickly went south after Dahmer drugged him and injected boiling water through his skull.

The injection left Weinberger in a coma, and he died two days later.

Who were Jeffrey Dahmer’s other victims?

Dahmer’s killing spree began on June 18, 1978, when he took the life of Steven Hicks.

While Dahmer may be known for his cannibalistic killings, Hicks was one of the few victims he didn’t eat.

It wasn’t until he moved from Ohio to Wisconsin that he began eating the flesh of his victims.

His other victims included:

Tracy Edwards would have been his 18th victim, but he escaped and informed the authorities of what had happened.

Police then quickly arrested Dahmer and were able to search his home, where they found several Polaroid pictures of the Milwaukee Cannibal with a number of dismembered men who were reported missing.

Dahmer was then convicted of 15 murders and sentenced to 15 consecutive life sentences.

He served three years before being killed in prison by Christopher Scarver.
