    the police officers who allowed the 14-year-old boy to go back to dahmer should be arrested.
  • @sunnyns85
    He didn't just save his own life, he saved who knows how many more... All the love and respect for Mr. Edwards
  • He looks visibly traumatized, but he's speaking so articulate and calmly. Recalling this horror. This took an immense amount of strength. Bless this man, Dear Lord šŸ™
  • @taintedlove202
    He made an excellent witness. Heā€™s calm, specific and articulate. You can feel his trauma. The state of Wisconsin should have taken care of him in every way. Housing, funding, psychological treatmentā€¦EVERYTHING! They failed him terribly. It saddens me that he struggled afterward. I hope he found his way. ā¤
  • @paigebarr-xk1tl
    the way he couldnā€™t look at dahmer and the way he was so physically uncomfortable was so heartbreaking
  • Shame on the state for not giving this man the help he needed, therapy and resources to get grounded and to heal. My heart goes out to him.
  • @user-dt6pp1yc3z
    This is why never ever go to anyone's home without knowing them
  • @JoshBG20
    "He told me he was going to eat my heart." That is so f**ked.... MAJOR GOOSEBUMPS šŸ˜±šŸ˜±šŸ˜±
  • @Revolt-Theory
    Imagine escaping from someone who attempted to murder you, then later finding out that said individual had killed, dismembered, and even ate many men, then having to be in his presence again knowing what he planned to do to you. This man is brave beyond words, and a true hero. Whether he planned to be a hero or not, the amount of lifeā€™s he saved is staggering. Itā€™s sad to see the path heā€™s went down later in life, I can only hope heā€™s doing well now.
  • @helin.111
    You can see in his eyes that he's traumatized. I feel so sorry for him. He deserved so much better.
  • We teach our children never talk to strangers. As adults, we should never accept an invitation from a total stranger. The world is full of crazy people.
  • Is the attorney driving anyone else nuts? Like, ask one question and let him talk. Geez.
  • @FreeSpirit47
    Tracys demeanor shows an intelligent man who exhibits telling signs of PTSD. The fact that he turned to drugs, became homeless, turned to crime whereas he was not like this before he had to fight Dahmer off. The attorneys & Netflix could do something to help this man. He's a hero who saved many people from future horrors.
  • I donā€™t think we can comprehend how difficult it is to testify such horrific details with your assailant right in front of you. Crazy
  • @sarahdin4539
    When his voice faltered when he said ā€œ he said he was going to eat my heartā€ i mean I canā€™t imagine what this fellow must have gone through
  • @junestorm
    I don't think anyone can even begin to imagine what this brave man went through during the evening.
  • He stopped evil in his tracks. Saved countless lives no doubt. He needs to be rewarded for his bravery
  • @leokimvideo
    The luckiest man alive. Somehow escaped the monster Dahmer. Incredible how accurate the Netflix series is on the serial killer
  • This mans life was destroyed. Iā€™m sorry he endured this tragedy. This goes to show the lasting effects of Jeffā€™s actions. Even 30 years later he has never recovered. šŸ˜¢ my heart goes out to him.
