T<\/span>he new Jeffrey Dahmer series by Netflix sacrificed accuracy for the sake of drama, according to the journalist who first broke the sensational story over three decades ago. <\/p>\n Anne E Schwartz told The Independent <\/em>that the filmmakers behind Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story<\/em> took \u201cartistic license\u201d with many key details, saying the series \u201cdoes not bear a great deal of resemblance to the facts of the case\u201d.<\/p>\n \u201cWhen people are watching Ryan Murphy’s Netflix series and saying ‘Oh my God this is terrible’. I want to tell them it didn’t necessarily turn out that way,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n Ms Schwartz was working as a crime reporter for the Milwaukee Journal <\/em>in 1991 when she received a call from a police source to say they had found a human head and body parts inside a city apartment.<\/p>\n Rushing to the scene, Ms Schwartz said she arrived to find just a few police officers there, and entered the Oxford Apartments building for a closer look.<\/p>\n \u201cI walked up to Dahmer’s apartment, and I kind of stuck my head in, because you’re a journalist, you want to know,\u201d she told The Independent. <\/em><\/p>\n \u201cI guess the thing that was strange was that it didn’t look strange.\u201d<\/p>\n She said officers slowly began to understand the magnitude of the crime scene as they discovered polaroids that Dahmer had taken of his victims in various stages of dismemberment. <\/p>\n \u201cThey didn’t know what they were finding,\u201d she said. <\/p>\n \u201cI was a crime reporter for five years so I know what it smells like when you walk into a building with a dead body or a decomposing body. This was not that. This was a very chemical smell.\u201d <\/p>\n Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story trailer<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
