The Dahmers, along with their publisher, William Morrow, should be run out of town. For this family to profit from what their child did is absolutely appalling. Lionel Dahmer states that he hopes the book will be "useful to fathers and mothers everywhere willing to learn from my experience." He wants us to think this will be a useful book? To whom? Himself, of course. The only saving grace is that the family of one victim has filed a lawsuit against the Dahmers. If justice prevails, all profits not going to the victims' families will go to attorneys' fees.
