Padre de Jeffrey Dahmer Lionel Dahmer muere a los 87 años
El padre de Jeffrey Dahmer, Lionel Dahmer, cuya relación con su hijo fue diseccionada en una reciente serie de Netflix, ha muerto de acuerdo con un nuevo informe.
Lionel falleció el martes mientras estaba en cuidados paliativos en el condado de Medina, Ohio, según The Sun, que dio la noticia. Las circunstancias exactas de su muerte son desconocidas.
Lionel es conocido por su relación con el famoso asesino en serie, quien mató, descuartizó y canibalizó a más de 17 hombres entre 1978 y 1991.
Una vez que los crímenes de Dahmer salieron a la luz, Lionel fue una de las únicas personas que lo defendió e hizo innumerables entrevistas tratando de explicar y justificar por qué su hijo había hecho lo que hizo. Lionel atribuyó los asesinatos de Jeffrey a su problemática educación y a una enfermedad mental.
Incluso apareció junto a Jeffrey en una entrevista en MSNBC cuando este ya estaba tras las rejas. Lionel dijo que, a pesar de todo, seguía queriendo a su hijo y que estaría a su lado.
Jeffery fue asesinado en la cárcel en 1994, algo que Lionel condenó y resintió.
La relación de Lionel con su hijo fue retratada con gran detalle en la serie de Netflix del año 2022, "Monster: La historia de Jeffrey Dahmer", que tenía a Evan Peters interpretando a Jeffrey y Richard Jenkins interpretando a Lionel.
El espectáculo ciertamente representó a Lionel como un padre cariñoso con su hijo, pero también algo ausente de su vida y en varios momentos el personaje ignoró los intentos de Jeffery por decirle acerca de sus fechorías.
Lionel tenía 87 años.
Jeffrey Dahmer's Father Lionel Dahmer Dead at 87
Jeffrey Dahmer's father, Lionel Dahmer -- whose relationship with his son was dissected in a recent Netflix series -- has died ... this according to a new report.
Lionel passed away Tuesday while in hospice care in Medina County, Ohio ... according to The Sun, which broke the news. The exact circumstances of his death are unknown.
The guy is obviously famous for his relation to the notorious serial killer ... who murdered, dismembered and cannibalized upwards of 17 men between 1978 and 1991.
Once Dahmer's crimes came to light ... Lionel was one of the only people who defended him, and did countless interviews trying to explain and justify why his son had done what he did. Lionel chalked up Jeffery's murders to his troubled upbringing and mental illness.
He even appeared alongside Jeffrey for one MSNBC interview when the killer was already behind bars. Lionel said he still loved his son regardless and would stick by him.
Of course, Jeffery was murdered in prison in 1994 ... something Lionel decried and resented.
Lionel and his son's relationship was portrayed in great detail in the 2022 Netflix limited series, "Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story" ... which had Evan Peters playing Jeffrey and Richard Jenkins playing Lionel.
The show certainly depicted Lionel as caring for his kid ... but also, somewhat absent from his life -- and at several different points, the character brushed aside Jeffery's attempts to tell his dad about his misdeeds.
Lionel was 87.

Deathbed Confession Dad Tells Daughter ... I Was a Bank Fugitive, Hun

A woman dished all on her father's shocking deathbed confession ... saying her life changed when she discovered he had been a wanted man for most of his life following an old bank heist.
Ashley Randele came on "TMZ Live" Monday to tell her tale -- saying her father, Tom Randele, came clean with an estimated 6 weeks to live following a lung cancer diagnosis ... suddenly off-loading the decades-long secret as they watched NCIS.
The 71-year-old explained to Ashley and her mom that he had to change his real name ... and they ought to finally know in case it came up after his passing ... because authorities "were probably still looking for him."
Ashley says she pressed him for more info the next day after realizing it wasn't a "terrible dad joke" -- adding it was vital for her to know her dad's real name: Ted Conrad.
Ignoring his pleas not to look into it, Ashley later found herself searching his name online ... yielding various "vault teller robs bank" headlines ... and recent articles stating the 50-year hunt was still active.
The revelation left her stunned ... after all, she had just learned the man she always perceived as an average suburban dad stole $215,000 --- the equivalent of $1.8M today -- while working as a vault teller at the Society National Bank in Cleveland, Ohio, on Friday, July 11, 1969, as a 20-year-old college dropout.
He fled to Washington, D.C., that night ... and when bank bosses discovered the theft on Monday, the FBI was called, and Conrad became a wanted man.
He ended up in Boston ... assuming a new identity and resuming normalcy despite his picture plastered across headlines.
Whether the heist was worth it or not would have been a question for Ted, AKA, Tom ... as Ashley says, most of the stolen money was blown on ritzy digs and at least one bad investment ... reaching the point of her loaning her parents 10K before they filed for bankruptcy in 2014.
Ashley goes in depth about her story on her podcast, "Smoke Screen: My Fugitive Dad."
She adds to us her dad never Googled himself ... refusing to believe that, after all this time, people cared about his crime. He passed away 2 months after his confession.

Susan Sarandon Apologizes For Anti-Jewish Remarks At Rally
Susan Sarandon is now walking back antisemitic remarks she delivered at a pro-Palestinian rally in NYC last month ... offering her apologies to anyone she offended.
The actress posted a lengthy statement on Instagram Friday night, explaining that she made a "terrible mistake" when she said Jews are “getting a taste of what it is like to be Muslim in this country, so often subjected to violence.”
Susan uttered the words in front of a large crowd at the November 17 rally in Manhattan's Union Square.
The demonstrators were protesting against the Israel-Hamas war, which broke out after the terrorist group invaded the Jewish state on October 7. Hamas militants, who rule over the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, slaughtered some 1,400 Jews, including babies.
In her IG post, Susan said she was invited to the event, but was not supposed to speak, yet ended up on stage with a mic in her hand, trying to communicate concerns about a rise in hate crimes throughout the country.

Justice Sandra Day O'Connor First Woman on Supreme Court Dead at 93
Sandra Day O'Connor, the first female justice on the Supreme Court, has died.
Justice O'Connor passed away Friday morning in Phoenix, AZ ... the court announced her death in a statement, saying she died, "of complications related to advanced dementia, probably Alzheimer’s, and a respiratory illness."
O'Connor made history in 1981 when she was appointed to the High Court by President Ronald Reagan. She was considered a moderate conservative, and often made the difference on the 9-person Court when it came to momentous decisions.
The Stanford Law School grad tackled the biggest social issues in the country, including abortion, affirmative action, and even presidential elections. She voted in 2000 to stop the recount in Florida in the race between Al Gore and George W. Bush ... her vote was part of the majority that secured Bush's election.
After leaving the Court in 2006, she bemoaned how it had swung way to the right, undoing some of her decisions over her 24-year tenure.
Chief Justice John Roberts said of Justice O'Connor, "A daughter of the American Southwest, Sandra Day O’Connor blazed an historic trail as our Nation’s first female Justice. She met that challenge with undaunted determination, indisputable ability, and engaging candor.”
Five women have followed in O'Connor's footsteps ... Ruth Bader Ginsberg, Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, Amy Coney Barrett and Ketanji Brown Jackson.
O'Connor was 93.
