John Wayne Gacy, The Killer Clown, was a prolific American serial killer who murdered 33 boys between 1972 and 1976, burying most of them in the crawlspace under his house in Norridge, Cook County, Illinois.

How did he go undetected for so long?

Did he have any accomplices?

How was he caught and sentenced to death?
