John Wayne Gacy (March 17, 1942 – May 10, 1994) was an American serial killer and sex offender who became one of the most notorious criminals in U.S. history. Active primarily between 1972 and 1978, Gacy was convicted of murdering at least 33 young men and boys in Cook County, Illinois. He lured many of his victims to his home with the promise of work or companionship before sexually assaulting, torturing, and killing them. Most of the victims were buried in a crawl space beneath his suburban Chicago residence.
Gacy was well-known in his community as a successful contractor and active civic participant, often performing at local events dressed as “Pogo the Clown.” This double life contributed to the public shock following his arrest in December 1978. In 1980, he was convicted on all counts and sentenced to death. After spending 14 years on death row, Gacy was executed by lethal injection at Stateville Correctional Center on May 10, 1994.
