Summary
John Wayne Gacy is one of the most infamous serial killers of all time. In the 1970s, Gacy raped, tortured and killed at least 33 boys and young men in the Chicago area. Gacy was very well-known and liked in his community and he enjoyed dressing up as a clown to entertain the neighborhood kids. He was the perfect example of a monster hiding in plain sight.
Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss the murderous John Wayne Gacy to mark the 150th episode of the podcast. In this third part on Gacy, we discuss the collapse of his second marriage, his run for elected office and the birth of Pogo the clown. We talk in detail about his known victims up through the end of 1977. We also discuss Gacy's distinctive MO and the boy that escaped Gacy early on that helped shed light on that MO.
