Christopher Scarver - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Christopher Scarver (born 1969) is a convicted murderer who, while in prison, killed Jeffrey Dahmer and Jesse Anderson while working with them, describing the deed as "the work of God."

On the morning of November 28, 1994, Scarver was paired up with Jeffrey Dahmer and Jesse Anderson for work detail which included the cleaning of the prison gymnasium bathroom. When guards left the three unsupervised, he beat both men with a preacher bar from a weight machine. When he returned to his cell early a guard asked him why he was not still working. He explained "God told me to do it. You will hear about it on the 6 o'clock news. Jesse Anderson and Jeffrey Dahmer are dead." During that time two guards found the bodies of Dahmer and Anderson. Dahmer was pronounced dead on his way to the hospital from extensive head injuries, and Anderson died two days later.
