EP. 88 ILLINOIS - John Wayne Gacy (PT. 3): Arrest, Trial, & Execution
With a victim count totalling 32 in the summer of 1978, there was one more life that John Wayne Gacy would take before his rein of terror would come to an end. When Robert Piest, a beloved honors student, went missing in December 1978 the police would soon zero in on the man responsible for the missing boys around Chicago - and what they would find in the unassuming suburban Chicago home would shock not only America, but the entire world. And that discovery would soon earn Gacy the title of the most prolific serial killer in American history. Join us on this episode, as we walk you through Gacy’s final murder, and everything that followed. This is part three of the story of John Wayne Gacy, the Killer Clown, and you are listening to Murder in America.
