Jeffrey Dahmer didn't last very long in prison. Robbers, gangsters, and murderers have their standards, after all.
You are correct. Child molesters end up as prison girlfriends.

I doubt it.

I personally know a former pastor who was in the habit of taking a 16 yr old girl home from church and did this for about 3-6 months before she made accusations against him in regard to sex.

Those accusations were true, much to the disgust of his over 220 congregation and his wife and four children.

He spent 6 years in prison, lost his ministry (of course!) and his family.

My brother loved this man like a brother and didn't believe it until he confessed.

Luckily today there are lots of guards against it. Back "in the day" I was an admin on the mail server serving our State Legislature. Just walking into the control room of the data center was disgusting at times as some of the guys were frantically trying to capture email header info to chase down open relays and the such. For some reason the spammers really wanted to hit all of the .gov addresses with filth. I personally collected info that helped to put a guy in Florida behind bars- albeit for a short time, but I never heard from him again.

The IT industry has done a commendable job in cleaning up the mess from the way it used to be. There's obviously still a lot of work to be done.

That's not what I was saying. Child molesters, along with other exceedingly twisted felons, end up dead. The "regular" criminals, robbers, killers, hetero rapists, they detest the "unnatural" and the child predators.

Jeffery Dahmer fell on his own fork . . . . fifty seven times . . . . in the federal pen in Terre Haute.

Vick might get jail time for the thing with the dogs but rape a little girl and you can avoid prison? Something ain't right

Jeffery was clubbed to death with a iron bar from the weight room.......in a Wisconsin prison.

There is a report of him becoming a Christian and being baptized. Don't know it it's true........of course everything on Wikipedia has to be true, it's on the Internet.....

I forget exactly how it breaks down- but it's something like this - Dahmer's grandfather was in the PAW and that man's nephew is a current UPC minister/pastor.

The family ties are estranged but Dahmer was said to have been baptized in Jesus name at some point in his life. I get this from a woman who says she is the aunt of the killer. I had expressed doubts about the story but his "second cousins" in the UPC (the aunt's neices and nephews) assured me that they were indeed related.

From what I read, he requested to be baptized in Jesus' name, but the minister was Trinitarian & told him that he baptizes in the name of FSHG and convinced Dahmer that this was the correct way to baptize. This was, apparently, while he was in prison. I'll try to find the link/story in the a.m. & post it.
