Jeffrey Dahmer doesn't want to be exploited.
Relatives of eight of his victims say they're entitled to whatever they can get from auctioning his possessions - including his toothbrush and TV set - as partial payment of civil judgments. A hearing is set for this month.But the man who confessed to the dismemberment killings of 17 young men and boys told the relatives' lawyer that he doesn't think it's right.
"I wouldn't want the property falling into the wrong hands and being used for exploitive purposes, like these people who came up with the baseball cards and the comic book," Dahmer said a year ago in a prison interview with the lawyer. The judge recently released a transcript of the conversation.
