The Case of Oliver Lacy

Oliver Lacy, 24, was murdered by Jeffrey Dahmer in Milwaukee on July 15, 1991. Dahmer met Lacy in the city and invited him to his apartment, where he drugged and strangled him. Lacy's remains were later recovered from Dahmer's apartment after Dahmer was arrested.

Oliver Lacy was 24 years old and lived in Milwaukee. He was one of the young men targeted by Dahmer during the final weeks of his killing spree. On July 15, 1991, Lacy encountered Dahmer in Milwaukee. Dahmer offered him money to accompany him to his apartment and pose for photographs. Lacy went with Dahmer to the apartment at 924 North 25th Street.

The murder occurred inside Dahmer's Milwaukee apartment. Dahmer drugged Lacy before strangling him. He subsequently dismembered the body and disposed of the remains. Dahmer also photographed portions of the dismemberment and retained some of Lacy's remains.

Lacy's disappearance was not connected to Dahmer while he was alive. After Dahmer's arrest on July 22, 1991, investigators searched the apartment and recovered extensive evidence of his murders, including human remains and photographs. Lacy's remains were among those recovered and were identified during the investigation. Dahmer subsequently confessed to his murder.

Jeffrey Dahmer was convicted of Oliver Lacy's murder and received a life sentence without the possibility of parole. Lacy's remains were recovered from Dahmer's apartment following his arrest.

Oliver Lacy was Dahmer's sixteenth known victim and was murdered only four days before Dahmer's final victim, Joseph Bradehoft. His murder occurred during the final and most concentrated period of Dahmer's known killings.
