Animal abuse is a big part in determining a psychopath, even though not all psychopaths become serial killers, or even commit crimes. If a psychopath does, in fact, turn out to be a serial killer, when the FBI profiles them, one of the main things that they look for is people who abused animals when they were younger or, people who still abuse animals today. They do this because animal abuse is one of the most common things that serial killers share in common. Also, most psychopaths have this in common. More than half of serial killers, or psychopaths, abuse animals (Meyer 9). For example, Dahmer would rip the legs off of frogs while they were still alive, hence the torture aspect, repeatedly stab squirrels and dogs, and he would even sometimes cut the ears off of the dogs …show more content…
If these children do, follow in the footsteps of this abusive adult then they too will become abusive towards animals and later on become abusive towards human beings. They also become very aggressive towards abusive adults, which could lead to domestic violence. 10.6% of children who are abused will go back and abuse the adult who abused them (Peterson 21). In the article “Cruelty to Animals and Violence to People,” written by M.L Peterson and D.P Farrington, discusses how children who abuse animals have a higher chance of being violent towards other humans later on in their life. There were cases that showed that serial killers abused animals in their early adolescent years, or teenage years. They also did studies on different families, families that didn’t have domestic abuse in the family and families that did have domestic abuse in the family. In the families that had domestic abuse, they were more likely to have participated in animal abuse rather than the families who have no sign of domestic abuse in the family (Peterson

After he ended the life of 17 young men, he was finally taken into custody. He tried to plead that he was insane but the court decided that he was guilty of all counts and sane.

The court also herd that after killing the victims, Jeffrey Dahmer would keep their skulls for pleasure.
He dismembered the bodies and often ate parts of them. He also performed an experiment one of his victims.

After killing 17 boys and men, Dahmer almost killed his 18th victim.
Dahmer collected dragonflies, butterflies, and insects which he had kept in jars. Moving on, he started collecting animal carcasses that he found on the side of the road. Sometimes, he would even dismember these animals at his home or in the forests behind his home. According to his friends, he would sometimes put the dismembered parts of the animals into jars. At one point, he decapitated a dog before nailing the dog to a tree.

As a young child, Dahmer had trouble making friends; he was fascinated with the flesh of living things, he even had an interest in taxidermy. During high school, he alienated himself from the rest of his peers and was incredibly shy around female students. This growing obsession with death led Dahmer to the path of destruction.

1. Jeffery Dahmer Jeffery Dahmer is probably one of the world's most notorious serial killers and well known not only for his methods in killing, but also for his fascination of first perpetrating the gruesome offences on animals, before then doing the same to humans.

Serial Killers As the world turns graciously, killers are bound to be all around and are on the brink of murderous acts. Serial killers are known to murder a handful of people or more over a small time period. According to the FBI, more than seventy percent of serial killers are known to use drugs and alcohol, and rigorously resulting to harm of the body. Some killers are known to suffer from child abuse and are in need of stronger social skills.
Due to his low tolerance of frustration, he would take it out as physical torture to fulfill his sexual desires. Although Dahmer himself has said before he did not mean to hurt anyone, he always had to be in control. Besides sadism, Dahmer partook in necrophilia. Necrophilia is having a sexual attraction to corpses (Berger). Dahmer indulged in sexual activities with at least five of his victims.
It can be difficult to understand why anyone would choose to murder another human being. However, not all serial killers have the same motivation behind their crimes. There are many different categories, and each tend to have different reason for why they choose to take the lives of others. The two main types of serial killers are organized and disorganized. From there, they can be broken down into even more specific categories, however, each category will usually fall under organized or disorganized.

During interrogation he admitted to murdering the 17 men, but plead not guilty and then eventually changed his plea to guilty by virtue of insanity.
More than 650 million animals are slaughtered for food in Canada, every year, most of them poultry. Most Canadians think the government ensures the humane treatment of farm animals and when told that that’s not the case they are shocked to discover the lack of monitoring of farms across the country. Canada doesn't have regulations on how animals should be treated on farms other than federal and provincial animal cruelty laws. These laws are only used to prosecute livestock producers in cases of rare and egregious abuse, such as when animals are neglected to the point of starvation.
In reality, one in fifteen children have been exposed to this type of violence, and almost 90% of them have seen this violence happen in the past (http://ncadv.org/learn-more/statistics).
