John Wayne Gacy was an American Serial Killer who tortured or murdered at least thirty-three men and boys. Mr. Gacy was born on March 17, 1942, in Chicago, Illinois. He often visits children's hospitals and charitable events as Patches the Clown. John had become the Killer Clown because of his services as a clown prior to knowledge of his killings. Gacy committed all his murders in one home in Norwood Park Township. The home was a ranch-style house. The victims would get invited to John's home. John Gacy would say he was going to do a magic trick, but they had to wear handcuffs for the trick. He would then torture his captive victim before killing them of either asphyxiation or strangulation with an object. All thirty-three of his victims were buried somewhere on his property or discarded in the Des Plaines River. Twenty-six victims were buried in his home's crawl space and three others were buried somewhere else on the home's property. The first person he ever killed was in 1972, he had murdered twice more than by end of 1975 and 1976. He ended up getting a divorce from his second wife. Which ended up making him go on a rampage and he ended up killing more than thirty people. Later an investigation started following the disappearance of a teenager which led to John's arrest in December of  1978. Gary was convicted of a crime that was attached to the teenager. He was sentenced to 10 years of imprisonment but served only eighteen months. The next time he was convicted for thirty-three murders and covered most homcides in the Untied States legal history. Gary was sentenced to death in March 1980 and he was finally executed on May 10, 1994.
