A&E Biography: John Wayne Gacy (1999)

A municipal politician, a children’s party clown, an ambitious entrepreneur, a self-proclaimed family man–these were the roles played by John Wayne Gacy to mask the fact that he was a serial killer who murdered 33 boys and young men and buried their bodies in the crawlspace of his home.

“Gacy lured his victims to his home with the promise of construction work, and then captured, sexually assaulted and eventually strangled most of them with rope. When he killed, he sometimes dressed as his alter ego “Pogo the Clown.”  BIOGRAPHY
