Contrasting Chaos: Psychologist Analyzes Dahmer and Ramirez Body Language

That first interviewer is totally getting off trying to bully Richard, frothing at the loins at the miniscule amount of authority he has been given here.

dahmer should have had a realistic sex doll then he might not have killed people. The doll would be just as dead and an object as his victims but wouldn't rot or anything.

Hope there aren't any ramirezes in all those migrants.
Deport and close the borders.

Ramirez also seems like there’s someone in the room who wants him to say certain things. I hope you analyze different interviews with the same killers

To me, Ramirez is the most frightening of any serial killer I've seen, appearance wise

How to be physcatrist and body language expert?

Finally an inteligent analize. I ve always belived RR was far from a psychopat and had very deep emotions.

As for Ramirez sighs i took that to be more of an expression of his in trying to make the interviewer look unintelligent. Like a sigh of "sigh* do i really need to explain this" or " sigh* why cant you understand".

I feel like Ramirez was trying to look profound and intelligent in the way he spoke and words he used. Some of his words seem over pronounced.

Maybe if the first guy who interviewed Richard didn't start off so aggressively it may have went differently

Do you think if he would have been able to talk about his horrible fantasies to someone that it couldve ended differently ? Because he said it was so horrific what he was thinking that he didn’t dare tell someone and kept it all inside . Ticking timebomb i think . Would be really interesting what you think on this

Dahmer seems almost nice .. scary. I guess because he comes across very honest

Please do a video on shawcross

Thank you for these videos. I find them so interesting and fascinating. I would love to see analysis of Paris Lee Bennett please

Ramirez would sigh before explaining his philosophy as if it was so awesome, he was grasping for words. I agree it was also to buy time and express annoyance at having to explain, like internally he's thinking (insert sigh), hold on a moment, let me get up on my great soapbox and dispense my wisdom. As if he thought he was some kind of chosen one. Definitely a narcissist.

Jeffery Dahmer always struck me as being honest and maybe even genuinely perplexed by his actions. In most interviews Ive seen of him, he always looks to be trying to analyze himself and his actions and doesnt seem to be hiding anything. Its almost as if he want to be so open and honest as to maybe gain answers from someone or anyone he interviews with.

New sub here.....of course Im going to watch all of your Dahmer vids...I live in Milwaukee 🤷‍♀️😏

love your videos!! as someone who wants to go into forensic psychology too, your content is very engaging and informative!! thank you for making these!!

JEFFREY DAHMER VS RICHARD RAMIREZ

Interesting you see Ramirez as being all about the "feels" .. From my persepctive Ramirez is sitting across from a guy who starts pretty aggressive and I think his sigh is about subjecting himself to this guy who he would have crusehed but now has to play the game to get what he wants ....the way he answers "just a guy" and then looks at him like he owns him .... His logic on societal violence loses the plot when he says killing out of duty (liberty/self preservation) is the same as killing for profit or fun .... The way he talks about baptizing evil qualities ... that is not Satanism, it's Luciferianism

Ramirez looks like a snake. The way he stares, his motions, the way he said “I am evil”, the way he sighs, he’s scary. Now Dahmer, is someone who is probably scarier because he can fool so many more people

Was Ramirez a psychopath? Yes. A gorgeous psychopath but a psycho nonetheless.
Was most of what he said ridiculous? Yes.
Is it true that "killing is killing whether done for duty, profit, or fun"? YES.
Is it true that "serial killers do on a small scale what governments do on a large one"? YES.

@drgexplains Hi. I'm a bit confused by some of the claims made in this video. So, I'll copy-paste a reply that I made elsewhere.

"I'm really confused by the doctor's statement that Dhamer was a narcissist. That would be a great description of other serial killers, but if Dhamer was narcissistic, why was he so cooperative after his arrest? Why did he refuse to make excuses for his heinous actions (something that has to be rare for a psychopath in his situation, given that an inability to take responsibility is part of it (part of being a psychopath, I mean))?


As for your comment, I don't know about rage, but he loves the spotlight. The brutal sadism of Ramirez's crimes MIGHT indicate a sort of anger, but I'm not sure. To make a comparison, a kid needn't be angry to break a toy."

He's acting in the 1993 Inside Edition interview. He uses movie lines word for word, passing them off as 'memories' from the comedy horror film written about him in 1992, filming finished July 1992 it was ready for distribution by Sept 1992. Just a tiny sample of what has been found. See the video evidence on The Dahmer Case A Critical Analysis across popular platforms. It's out there.

Ramirez probably had horrible halitosis.

Sheesh, moving the corner of his mouth is a sign of contempt? Maybe it was just a sign of him simply thinking that he just did not know. Touching his nose is about him calming himself down? Maybe his nose just itched. I find this analysis interesting but some of it seems like nothing more than silly nonsense.

His (Ramirez) pattern of speech reminds me of that Jacqueline Ades interview. The lady who stalked a man she had one date with and sent 10s of thousands of graphic and violent texts to him. The heavy breaths and inappropriate smiles and chuckles and like you said kind of stilted, unnatural and intense accentuation and articulation. What he is actually saying is far more coherent than her bizarre tangents but they remind me of each other.

my mom lived in monrovia at the time. my mom was about 25 at the time. her mom, my grandmother, lived in monrovia too and swears richard broke into her home.

my grandma was a devout catholic and had all kinds of crosses and crucifixes and statues in her home. very holy woman, as devout to catholism as richard was to satanism.
my mom thinks maybe the catholic energy and crosses etc scared off richard. one of his victims he was strangling with a cord and the cord started sparking and it scared him off because he thought it was “jesus interfering to save the victim” so maybe my mom was right! maybe it did scare him away

I enjoy these videos, but I'd enjoy them more if viewers can watch the interviews for a little longer. We can get a better sense of body language interpretations if they weren't cut off every 2 seconds for commentary. It commentary overload.

Dude, you're good!

Ramirez behaves a lot like my partner who has Schizoaffective disorder and has PTSD.

Dahmer's affect reminds me a lot of Ed Kemper.

What is the meaning of all the sighs? Anger? Frustration? Being Overwhelmed?

Some people want to be doctors, politicians, policemen.. Ramirez wanted to be a serial murderer. He was an actor.. yes he really was a killer and obviously he was the epitome of evil but the way he acted and especially the way he spoke was a performance.. it wasn’t real. He was trying to portray himself as an intellectual but i can almost guarantee he had a pretty low IQ. That’s not the way he actually spoke outside of interviews. He was always playing the part.
In a world full of Ramirez’s.. be a Dahmer 😂

I genuinely think it's impossible to read accurately dahmer body language because he naturally is alexithymic . He seems to have only two feelings and thats sensory excitement and severe anxiety. But he's not showing narcissism .only psychopathy . It's actually my first time seeing him talk so I could be wrong.

This channel is so underrated

I would love to see a compare and contrast with politicians on different political sides.

The reason why They are soooo different is SIMPLY bc Jeffrey Dahmer doesn’t desire for ppl to fear him. Jeff didn’t actually want to kill ppl he just wanted to control them. He didnt want attention so he was reckless. Jeff is a whole different type of serial killer in a bubble of his own nobody is like him

I think your analysis of Ramirez was interesting, but you have tried to fit Dahmer into your understanding of control and psychopathy that does not entirely work with Dahmer. If you consider the possibility that he has dissociative identity disorder, then the part speaking now is the public face and not the aspect of him that sadistically harms others. Listen to the full testimony at his trial of his final victim and you will hear a behavioural description that supports the idea of dissociated parts switching during the hours that poor man was trapped with Dahmer. It is quite bizarre.

« We all are evil … » Ramirez is right

You should do Michael Jackson during his child abuse trial

When Jeffrey Dahmer says he converted to Christianity, he accepted Jesus and was baptized. Do you believe it was true or did he do it to make people empathize? I wanted your opinion

Very interesting channel. I don't understand your language, but I put the subtitles in Portuguese 🤣🤣 Your fan from Brazil lol I love criminal cases

So, you think Richard is a psychopathic narcissist, not a psychopath? Because, narcissist actually feel too much emotions, that's why narcissism (grandiosity) is a defense against those emotions, they can't deal with emotions because they actually feel it too much, same as borderlines, but they don't have narcissistic defenses against it.

I am surprised that you did not touch on the blatant display of anxiety that Richard exhibits. There was a point during the interview where he stumbles over the recitation of his quotes and quickly looks upwards. That moment struck me as a form of embarrassment. Wish you had spoken about that!

Ramírez's last sentence about "Rename our bad qualities as good qualities" is a phrase by Friedrich Nietzsche

With Dahmer, sometimes I wish he was still alive so that for our field, we could have learned so much from his honesty about his mind and how it worked. I am glad we have these interviews, but it leaves so many questions to follow up with from the medical psychology side of things.

There are truely so many levels in being a psychopath or sociopath in things like what their capable of or behaviour stuff like that.

From what I understand, psychopaths are born, sociopaths are made.
Doc, since they are so close in definition, is it standard practice to lump them into the same category?
From the two definitions, Ramirez is a sociopath, and Dahmer, a psychopath.

I hope you do a video on David Parker Ray
