Jeffrey Dahmer died on November 28, 1994, after being fatally beaten by a fellow inmate, Christopher Scarver, while serving 16 consecutive life sentences at Columbia Correctional Institution in Portage, Wisconsin. Dahmer was attacked with a metal bar by Scarver during a prison work detail in the gymnasium bathroom area. He suffered severe head injuries and was pronounced dead about an hour later at a hospital. Scarver claimed he was disgusted by Dahmer's crimes and confronted him before the attack. Another inmate, Jesse Anderson, was also attacked by Scarver and later died from his injuries.
