Dahmer on Netflix: Mother of Jeffrey Dahmer victim breaks her silence

From episode 6, the series Dahmer: Monster – Jeffrey Dahmer’s story takes a different path and takes the side of the victims and their families. In particular, the story of Tony Hughes, a deaf man who is the victim of a killer, is highlighted, as well as his mother, who fights to get justice for her son.

Like her relatives before her, the real Shirley Hughes came out of silence. Today, at the age of 85, he spoke to the British media The Guardian and refers to the Netflix series. “I don’t understand how they can do thatHe is upset. I don’t understand how they can name us and stuff like that.”

Although she adamantly refuses to watch the series, Shirley Hughes – who played an important role during the trial of Jeffrey Dahmer in 1992 with her painful speech – explains that the Netflix adaptation does not reflect reality in any way: “It didn’t quite happen like that.”

This speech is in addition to the speech of Rita Isbell, who gave a long testimony to the media Insider. The sister of Geoffrey Dahmer’s eleventh victim, Errol Lindsey, criticizes the Netflix platform for not contacting the victims’ relatives.

“I think we should have asked Netflix to know how we would liveregrets They didn’t say anything, they just listened to each other. But I’m not obsessed with money, but that’s what Netflix does, they want to make a profit.“

Shirley Hughes and Rita Isbell both appear in episode 8 of the series during the trial. They are played by Karen Malina White and Dashawn Barnes.

Dahmer: Monster – The Jeffrey Dahmer Story is available on Netflix.
