Editing Christopher Scarver (section)

===Aftermath===
In 1995, Scarver was transferred into the custody of the [[Federal Bureau of Prisons]] under the register number #08157-045. At the time, prison officials in Wisconsin believed they did not have a facility secure enough to house Scarver. Scarver underwent psychiatric evaluation again at the [[United States Medical Center for Federal Prisoners|MCFP Springfield]] and was later transferred to [[ADX Florence]], the federal [[Supermax prison|supermax]] in [[Florence, Colorado]], where he remained until 2000.<ref>{{Cite web |title=FindLaw's United States Seventh Circuit case and opinions. |url=https://caselaw.findlaw.com/us-7th-circuit/1115674.html |access-date=2023-02-09 |website=Findlaw |language=en-US}}</ref>

In 2000, Scarver was transferred to the [[Wisconsin Secure Program Facility]] when it opened.<ref name="th" /> In 2001, federal district court judge [[Barbara Brandriff Crabb|Barbara Crabb]] ordered that Scarver and about three dozen other seriously mentally ill inmates be relocated from the Wisconsin facility. Scarver was eventually relocated to the [[Centennial Correctional Facility]] in Colorado.<ref name=th/>

In 2005, Scarver brought a federal civil rights suit against officials of the [[Wisconsin Secure Program Facility]]<ref name=court/> arguing that he had been subjected to cruel and unusual punishment, contrary to his constitutional rights.<ref name=Poplar/> A district court judge dismissed the suit against several of the defendants and ruled that the actions of the remaining officials could not be considered unlawful. Scarver unsuccessfully appealed the decision in 2006.<ref name=court/> Scarver would later say that he had been held for 16 years in solitary confinement as a result of the murders of Dahmer and Anderson.<ref name=letters/>

In 2012, an agent representing Scarver announced that he was willing to write a [[wikt:tell-all|tell-all]] book about the murder of Dahmer.<ref name=sjmn/><ref name=huff/><ref name=dj/>
