Lionel Dahmer

Lionel Herbert Dahmer (; July 29, 1936 – December 5, 2023) was an American chemist and author known as the father of serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer. In 1994, he wrote ''A Father's Story'', a non-fictional account on his son's upbringing, subsequent progress to become a world-wide-known serial killer and its aftermath. Lionel's figure has been controversial in the subsequent years since his son's crimes, as both he and his first wife were accused of neglecting Jeffrey during his childhood. Provided by Wikipedia
