Christopher Scarver
Christopher Scarver (born 1969) is a convicted murderer who while in prison killed Jeffrey L. Dahmer and Jesse Anderson while working with them for what he called "the work of God." Many believe this was racially related.
Scarver, the second son of five children born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, went to James Madison High School and dropped out in the 11th grade. When his mother kicked him out he started to drink beer. Then, in 1990 according to the New York Times, he went to the training program office and saw Steve Lohman, a program worker. He ordered Steve Lohman to give him his money and when he only received 15 dollars, Scarver shot Lohman in the head. At the same time, he demanded money from a Mr. Feyen. Next, according to authorities, Scarver said, "Do you think I'm kidding? I need more money." Scarver shot Lohman two more times before Feyen was able to run away with a check that he would have given to Scarver. Scarver was tried and sentenced to life in 1992 and sent to the Columbia Correctional Institution in Portage, Wisconsin, where Dahmer was also incarcerated. Psychiatrists labelled him a schizophrenic psychopath with messianic delusions and he was placed under anti-psychotic medication.
On the morning of November 28, 1994, Scarver was paired up with Jeffrey Dahmer and Jesse Anderson for work detail which included the cleaning of the prison gymnasium bathroom. When guards left the three unsupervised, he beat both men with a preacher bar from a weight machine. When he returned to his cell early a guard asked him why he was not still working. He explained "God told me to do it. You will hear about it on the 6 o'clock news. Jesse Anderson and Jeffrey Dahmer are dead." During that time two guards found the bodies of Dahmer and Anderson. Dahmer was pronounced dead on his way to the hospital from extensive head injuries, and Anderson died two days later.
Although he maintained that he was provoked by God many believe that Scarver, a black man, killed both for racial reasons as most of Dahmer's 17 victims were black and Anderson blamed the murder he committed against his wife on two black men in a fabricated story. Scarver received two more life sentences for these murders.
A report from "Robert," a purported former inmate at the prison where Dahmer was murdered contradicts portions of the official story, stating that Dahmer was dead before the ambulance arrived, and that the guards from that area were all in the bathroom while Dahmer was murdered, suggesting the murder was "an inside job" for which Scarver received $100 compensation.
Death metal band Macabre made an eponymous song about Scarver for their concept album Dahmer
