Monster: The True Story of the Jeffrey Dahmer Murders by Anne E. Schwartz
4.0
A pretty interesting look into Dahmer, who I knew almost nothing about. There were a couple dry sections in the middle, mostly about the mob mentalities of the public and general gnashing of teeth from various groups.
The author missed an important discussion, which bothered me greatly. Judge Gardner's ruling on Dahmer was disgustingly lenient. Anne makes only a side note about this, even mentioning that no one seemed to think Gardner's involvement mattered as much as the general concept of racist cops-- so why is Anne Schwartz ignoring the snake in the room? Gardner's choice was horrifically I'll informed. Who the hell let's a child sexual predator-- caught twice-- free with just 10 months????!?!???
