I just finished watching the ID channel's 2 part program about him. What a truly evil disgusting man he was. Although I don't wish to make political statements, because of people like him, we need our law enforcement professionals.

l look at it differently. Because of the example of Dahmer, we need to invest more in mental healthcare, making sure that every American has access to such healthcare.

There isn't enought mental healthcare on this planet to have helped him. He was truly evil! Not everyone can get "helped" .

Dahmer, Son of Sam, Gacy, Ted Bundy, just a few of the evil serial killers who murdered many people before they were caught. That is the tragedy, they were sick enough to end so many lives before they were caught.
Yes, we do need our police and I have not heard anyone I listen to say otherwise except fro the distortions of others claiming so. Good police work by dedicated decent cops can catch criminals. Unfortunately like in any other job, bad seeds need to be weeded out so the good people can do their jobs.
Also we do need more mental health clinics, it seems we are still in the dark ages when it comes to mental health, giving meds isn't enough, just my opinion.

@Goldengate8361 Dahmer wasn't mentally ill. He was evil. All the mental health professionals in the world put together couldn't help him. There is no cure for someone like that.

Yes, providing mental healthcare is an important factor , but seems to me from watching a prior program abt him, his problems began at an early age. This is when his parents should have noticed something and have provided him with professional psychological care . From other shows abt serial murderers one can see that some of them had behavioral problems beginning in childhood and some were abused . Unfortunately , many parents don't want to acknowledge their child has issues . Law enforcement in this case would have prevented additional murders by Dahmer if they had been more vigilant . The success rate of mental healthcare for pedophiles is very low. Who knows if there would even be a success rate in treating serial murderers such as Dahmer or Bundy or the rest of them . I am sure they have the psychiatrists hard at work figuring out the mind of Joseph De'Angelo the East Area Rapist/Original Night Stalker /Golden State Killer. Thank God, that Detectives finally traced him down after all these years .Law Enforcement is a necessary component to solve murders .

I do think access to mental healthcare is very important. Sadly, I personally feel that people such as serial killers, rapists, child abusers and domestic abusers are never rehabilitated.

It's scarey to know there are more like him still out there stalking their prey.
