Hoffman eventually threw out the blue van theory, citing time discrepancies in Pottenburgh’s story.īut Santamassino said she saw a blue van parked illegally outside Sears’ west entrance, as did Bowen. As an employee of Sunshine Subs, Dahmer had access to a blue delivery van, according to eight people.įor months after Adam’s abduction, police stopped blue vans across the state based on the sketchy statements of 10-year-old Timothy Pottenburgh, who said he’d seen Adam pulled into a blue van outside Sears. Had Hoffman followed up on Dahmer’s statements, he would have found that Dahmer lied about his hours and was often sent home due to drinking, according to his boss, Ken Haupert Sr. He had 11 severed heads in his Milwaukee apartment. In 1991, Dahmer emerged as one of the nation’s most infamous killers after his arrest on charges involving decapitation, necrophilia and cannibalism. He did recall broader discussions among authorities about the problems Dahmer witnesses would have posed should Toole be prosecuted. Interviewed recently, Mundy had little recollection of the Warren interview. “I wish my mind could take a picture, because it would be him: Dahmer.”
Warren says she could have picked out the man in fatigues had the investigator placed his picture in the lineup with Toole. She also noticed a man at the video games wearing beige khakis “like army fatigues.” He stood next to Adam and stared at the screen. Warren told The Miami Herald she saw Adam with his mother Reve that day. She was dismissed after she said she didn’t see Toole, she said.

Lori approached a game next to a boy wearing an oversized hat, shorts and a striped shirt and played for 10 minutes, the mother said. Santamassino wanted sandals for her daughter Lori, 4, but first the girl asked to play an arcade game. After nearly slamming into the back of a blue van parked illegally outside the west entrance of Sears, she parked, and went inside. Jwas the first day of Santamassino’s vacation, and she drove her daughter and son to the Hollywood Mall on Hollywood Boulevard across from police headquarters. “Once I saw that picture of Dahmer, I said, ‘That’s him, ‘ “ Janice Santamassino remembered.
