 CNN producer claims Netflix show depicting his life and horrific crimes is not factually accurate. Emmy-winning producer Nancy Glass, who interviewed the horrific serial murderer Jeffrey Dahmer in prison, argues that the show detailing his life and atrocities is inaccurate. Evan Peters portrays Dahmer, who was battered to death by a fellow inmate at Portland's Columbia Correctional Institution in 1994, with terrifying precision in the eight-part Netflix series Monster, the Jeffrey Dahmer story. However, Emmy-winning producer Nancy Glass, who was granted a rare opportunity to interview the killer for CNN's Inside Edition in 1993, claims its writers were given a degree of poetic license in order to bring his horrible narrative to the screen. Speaking to the Australian radio show, Kyle and Jack Yeo on Wednesday, she detailed each of its perceived inaccuracies, with many focusing on Dahmer's strained relationship with his father, Lionel. She claims, however, that the grisly details of his murdering spree in which he killed, mutilated, and in some cases attempted to cannibalize 17 young men between 1978 and 1991 are mostly accurate. Jeffrey's father never noticed his son was trembled. Glass, who spoke with Dahmer's family for years before meeting the killer behind bars, believes the series' portrayal of the murderous childhood isn't entirely accurate. While Monster portrays Dahmer's father Lionel as a concerned father who believes his son is an alcoholic loser, Glass claims this is simply not the case. The father never thought anything was wrong, Glass said, adding that Lionel was an odd man who might not have recognized red flags in Jeffrey's behavior. So I do want to say that while the Netflix show was fantastic, it's a scripted show. It's not meant to be a documentary, she added. Glenda Cleveland wasn't Jeffrey's neighbor. Glass claimed the storyline regarding Dahmer's neighbor Glenda Cleveland on the show was also made up. Cleveland is featured in the series as Dahmer's next-door neighbor in the Oxford apartments, and she has multiple disturbing interactions with him. Cleveland complains to the police several times about a bad odor emerging from Dahmer's residence, but her calls are ignored because she's black. Cleveland, in actuality, resided in a separate building and never met Dahmer. That didn't happen, Glass said of Cleveland's portrayal, adding that a neighbor noted a stench but didn't complain. Cleveland, on the other hand, made multiple attempts to warn local authorities and the FBI about Dahmer's behavior when her niece bumped across one of his victims, Conor Axe and Thasinphone, while attempting to flee his apartment complex. Dahmer fed sound just to his neighbor Pamela Bass. The woman who lived next door to Dahmer was Pamela Bass. She liked him a lot and didn't have many doubts about what he was doing. She was not cast in Netflix's limited series. Following Dahmer's arrest, Bass confirmed that Dahmer was pleasant in sharing. She even admitted to his feeding her sandwiches. When the brutality of Dahmer's act was revealed, Bass expressed her concern that they may have contained human flesh. I've probably eaten someone's body parts, as she said in the documentary The Jeffrey Dahmer Files. Dahmer did not drink bags of blood while working at the Milwaukee Blood Plasma Center. The fourth episode followed Dahmer when he started working as a phlebotomist at the Milwaukee Blood Plasma Center. In an unsettling turn of events, he brought home a bag of blood to consume. According to real-life accounts to police officials, Dahmer attempted to consume a vial of blood off the center's roof, but ended up spitting it out. Police officers John Balsersack and Joseph Gabrich did not receive Officer of the Year. In episode 9 of the limited series, officers John Balsersack and Joseph Gabrich were recognized as officers of the year. That would never happen in real life. Both cops were reinstated in 1994 after being suspended following Dahmer's capture. However, they were never named Officer of the Year. Balsersack rose through the ranks to become the head of the Milwaukee Police Officers Union. Dahmer did not wear glasses during his trial. During his trial, the alleged killer did not wear the iconic aviator spectacles for which he became famous. I felt uncomfortable staring anyone in the face. I didn't want to see anyone's face clearly. It helped me detach myself from what was occurring, Dahmer claimed in an interview with Inside Edition. Jeffrey's father never taught him to dissect animals. Glass also stated that Dahmer's father, Lionel, teaching him how to dissect animals as a kid was highly unlikely. I'm not so sure that's accurate. Ms. Glass, who became acquainted with Dahmer's parents in the 1990s, said, Lionel and his kid are shown traveling about seeking for roadkill to dissect in their garage in the series. As a deranged sort of fatherly bonding, Lionel, a research scientist, is seen showing us on how to chop up the dead animals. In actuality, Lionel never educated his son about dissecting, discarding, and saving animal parts, and only discovered this after his son was imprisoned. In episode three of the show, we see Dahmer kill his first victim, hitchhiker Stephen Hicks, offering to drop Hicks off at a concert. Dahmer convinces Hicks to first hang out with him at his parents' house, where they drink and smoke weed. When Dahmer tries to kiss Hicks, Hicks recoils and tries to leave, at which point Dahmer hits him with a barbell then finishes him by strangling him. He then disposes of the body by cutting it up, dissolving it in acid, pulverizing the bones with a hammer, and throwing the ashes in his parents' backyard. The exact details of what prompted Dahmer to kill Hicks are unknown, as does whether Dahmer attempted to kiss Hicks, though Dahmer subsequently said that the killing was unintentional, but the general strokes are all correct. However, the show skipped a stage, since after dismembering the body, Dahmer buried it in the backyard for several weeks before digging it up again to dissolve it. Tracy, the man who escaped Dahmer We learn about Dahmer's strategy of picking up victims in the first episode of the show. He'd get drunk, go to nearby gay bars, and then ask someone back to his place, typically with a promise of money and drink. Tracy Edwards, a gay African-American guy, is the first person he witnessed enter Dahmer's flat, albeit the last chronologically. Tracy was a genuine person who was lauded as a hero for fling Dahmer's grasp, reporting him to the police and eventually having him jailed. Interestingly, Edwards stated during Dahmer's trial that once in his flat, Dahmer's demeanor and physical appearance changed. His facial structure appeared different Edwards observed. It's like he wasn't him anymore. The Cannibalism and Fridge Full of Body Parts Viewers may believe the show severed head in the fridge, organs and genitalia in the freezer, and other gory finds seem like something out of a poor horror movie, and they would be correct. All of this happened, and the fact that Dahmer's actions have served as the foundation for numerous horror films since then. When authorities inspected Dahmer's flat in person, they discovered picture albums containing dismembered bodies and pieces. They also found bleached skulls, multiple heads in the fridge and freezer, barrels of hydrochloric acid used by Dahmer to dissolve the dead, and signs that he had been consuming the body parts. In an interview following his conviction, Dahmer admitted to cannibalism. He stated, I was branching out. That's where the cannibalism started. Eating of the heart and the arm muscle, it was a way of making me feel that they were a part of me. Doing a Dahmer In episode three, we see what Dahmer was like in high school. The answer is strange, as you might expect. A group of jocks asked Dahmer to do an imitation of the decorator a couple of times, at which point Dahmer seizes up and makes an unpleasant handicapped impersonation for the ages. This is quite correct. Dahmer was known at school for acting up and doing a Dahmer to grab attention. The impressions came from an interior decorator who worked on Dahmer's parents' house for a spell and suffered from cerebral palsy. When Dahmer was struggling socially, his peers claimed that he frequently played the class clown to gain attention. This whole period of Dahmer's life is explored more in-depth in the 2017 film My Friend Dahmer, which is based on a graphic novel written by John Baxterf, who knew Dahmer personally at high school and was even involved in some of his acting up. Police returning the boy to Dahmer Despite being highly drunk, 14-year-old Konorek Synthasemphone manages to flee Dahmer's flat in the shell. Three ladies discover Konorek on the streets bewildered and unable to communicate in Dial 911. When the cops arrive, Dahmer meets them on his way back from the liquor shop, convinces them that the youngster is of legal age and his lover, and is given permission to take the boy back to his apartment, where he subsequently kills and dismembers him. Tragically, this is completely correct, and there was significant public backlash as a result of the two cops handling the issue. For their incompetence, the policeman in issue, John Baxterzak and Joseph Gabrish were subsequently suspended and sacked from the police department. The show, if anything, underplayed the police officer's irresponsibility. In truth, the cops refused to let the ambulance team check on Konorek, made homophobic jokes, and failed to identify Dahmer. If they had identified him, they would have learned that Dahmer had a child molestation accusation from 1988 from molesting Konorek's 13-year-old brother, which is also referenced in the show. The Yellow Eyes The show's Netflix promotional material creates a striking first impression, with a face-on photo of Dahmer looking at the camera with demonic yellow eyes. This isn't just for show, as we discover in episode 2 of the show that Dahmer enjoys wearing yellow contact lenses. It's implied in the program that he wears them because he's a movie buff and enjoys how they look on Emperor Palpatine in Star Wars Return of the Jedi. In reality, Dahmer's counsel stated that Dahmer enjoyed wearing yellow contacts to impersonate Satan-like people such as the Emperor and the demon from the Exorcist 3.
