Jeffrey Dahmer Murdered 'America's Most Wanted' Host's 6-Year-Old Son, FBI Drops Shocking Details
Jeffrey Dahmer reportedly killed more young men than what the news outlets reported.
Long before the release of Netflix's "DAHMER - Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story," the public already knew how Dahmer mercilessly murdered, dismembered, and ate 17 young men from 1978 to 1991. The infamous serial killer almost added Tracy Edwards to the list, but the victim managed to escape from the horrifying death.
The 17 victims Dahmer killed were Steven Hicks, Steven Tuomi, Jamie Doxtator, Richard Guerrero, Anthony Sears, Ricky Beeks, Eddie Smith, Ernest Miller, David Thomas, Curtis Straughter, Errol Lindsey, Anthony Hughes, Konerak Sinthasomphone, Matt Turner, Jeremiah Weinberger, Oliver Lacy, and Joseph Bredehoft.
But recently, a retired FBI claimed that Dahmer was also the culprit behind the death of "America'sMost Wanted" host John Walsh's 6-year-old son, Adam.
Speaking with Radar Online, investigator Neil Purtell said there is evidence that linked the murderer to the 1981 case of Adam. Although Dahmer admitted killing the 17 men, he refused to talk about killing Adam because of his fears that he might be killed in prison for being a pedophile.
"The decapitation and disposal of the torso of Adam Walsh is again the type of behavior that Dahmer continued to exhibit in Milwaukee with his victims. Jeffrey Dahmer closely matches the description of the person who abducted this young child," the FBI staff revealed.
Police Found the Suspect in Adam Walsh's Murder
Purtell's comment, however, is not similar to the findings of the Florida police.
In 1981, Adam went missing during a trip to a Florida mall with his mother, Reve Walsh. The matriarch reportedly left him to watch a group of boys playing video games before going to another section of the store.
He was presumed to be abducted outside the mall after a security guard told the boys to leave the mall for causing trouble. After going missing for days, two fishermen found his head in a drainage canal in Florida, but his body was never found.
It became one of the most infamous child murders in the country's history.
Decades after the crime, the police said that the convicted Ottis Toole was the one who committed the murder. The suspect died in 1996.
Following Adam's death, his father founded the Adam Walsh Child Reform Centre with his wife Reve and advocate the missing person cases. Former POTUS George Bush signed the Adam Walsh Child Protection and Safety Act, as well.
