Errol Lindsey, a 19-year-old Black man, was lured into Dahmer’s apartment in 1991 where he was brutally murdered, according to Serial Killer Database.

A YouTube video shows the tragic event, and the video was hauntingly recreated in the Netflix show.
Reacting to the Netflix series, Rita Isbell published the essay with Insider after the video of her testimony went viral, and in it, she explained her reaction in court. “I hadn’t written anything down. If I had, I would’ve torn it up anyway. It wouldn’t have gotten read. That was my first time ever being in front of him,” Isbell writes. “Whatever I thought I was going to say, that didn’t happen. It all just came out in the moment.”
Netflix did not inform the family about the show, Isbell explains, so she only watched the episode she was featured in. “When I saw some of the show, it bothered me, especially when I saw myself—when I saw my name come across the screen and this lady saying verbatim exactly what I said…That’s why it felt like reliving it all over again. It brought back all the emotions I was feeling back then.”
