Infinity Land

Autor Josef Benson
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 15 aug 2026
In 1988, a thirteen-year-old girl named Meko arrived in Milwaukee as a refugee from Thailand. Not long after, she met Jeffrey Dahmer—the notorious serial killer and sex offender who, between 1978 and 1991, murdered and dismembered at least seventeen men and boys. Over the course of three years, Meko, along with Laotian victims Somsack and Konerak Sinthasomphone, developed an unlikely and disturbing friendship with Dahmer, offering a rare, firsthand perspective on one of America’s most infamous criminals.

Based on author Josef Benson’s interviews with Meko, Infinity Land: The Untold Story of Jeffrey Dahmer presents exclusive, never-before-revealed information that radically reshapes our understanding of Dahmer, his crimes, and the city that enabled them. Meko’s story sheds light on Dahmer’s victim selection process, daily life, personal fascination with Adolf Hitler, and views on Milwaukee’s Black community. Through Meko’s eyes, readers are introduced to some of Dahmer’s haunts—such as the Milwaukee Rescue Mission and Charles Allis Museum—as well as previously unreported murder victims, including gay porn star Billy London.

Infinity Land also reveals how Milwaukee’s deeply rooted segregation and fractured relationship between police and marginalized communities allowed Dahmer to operate with near-total impunity for years. This volume not only deepens our understanding of Dahmer and his victims but situates his crimes within American’s long history of racial violence.
