Amirante—by this stage dubious of Gacy's claims of innocence—then asked Gacy what he had to discuss with them, placing a copy of the Daily Herald on his desk and stating: "You said you had something new to tell me! In 2012, two Chicago lawyers said travel records show that he had been in another state at the time of three of the murders, implying he had one or more accomplices. He underwent a variety of psychological tests to determine whether he was mentally competent to stand trial. Body 13 (still unidentified) was found beneath the spare bedroom; he is estimated to have been between 17 and 22 years old and between 5 ft 9 in and 6 ft 2 in (180 and 190 cm).

Less than four weeks later, Gacy murdered 16-year-old Robert Winch and buried him in the crawl space. T]akes us through all of the bizarre actions of his certifiably insane client, as well as the various twists and turns of the six-week trial. This victim was identified two days later as James Mazzara, whom Gacy confessed to having murdered shortly after Thanksgiving.In late 1975, Gacy joined the clown club and created his own characters "Pogo the Clown" and "Patches the Clown", devising his own makeup and costumes. Bodies 14 and 15 were recovered from a common grave; both were found with their head and upper torsos inside separate plastic bags. Gacy murdered at least thirty-three young men and boys, twenty-six of whom he buried in the crawl space of his house. Antonucci continued working for PDM for nine months after this incident, and Gacy made no further attempts to assault him.

Commissioned by Netflix and directed by Joe Berlinger, this series includes previously unreleased recordings of conversations between Gacy and his lawyer. Some of those in favor of the execution wore T-shirts hearkening to Gacy's previous community services as a clown and bearing satirical slogans such as "No tears for the clown". He would then produce a pair of handcuffs to "show a magic trick", sometimes as part of a clowning routine. While flushing Gacy's toilet, the officer noticed a smell he suspected could be that of rotting corpses emanating from a heating duct.While Gacy was executed for his sickening crimes in 1994, his terrifying spectre continues to haunt us. Gacy was active in his local community and helpful towards his neighbors; he willingly loaned his construction tools and plowed snow from neighborhood walks free of charge. One laid on the passenger seat of Gacy's Oldsmobile in what the dog's handler informed investigators was a "death reaction", indicating Piest's body had been present. He was rewarded with an invitation to serve on the Norwood Park Township street lighting committee, subsequently earning the title of precinct captain. Cram and Rossi testified that Gacy had made them dig drainage trenches and spread bags of lime in his crawl space.

According to Gacy, a colleague in the Jaycees plied him with drinks and invited him to spend the evening on his sofa; the colleague then performed oral sex on him while he was drunk. In the hours leading up to Gacy's execution, a crowd estimated at over 1,000 gathered outside the correctional center; a vocal majority were in favor of the execution, although a small number of anti-death penalty protesters were present. At least two victims believed to have been murdered by Gacy (Kenneth Parker and Michael Marino) had last been seen alive close to where Norman lived.

While studying for his honors thesis, he established relationships by correspondence with John Wayne Gacy, Richard Ramirez, Henry Lee Lucas, Jeffrey Dahmer, Elmer Wayne Henley, and Charles Manson. In 1964, the company transferred him to Springfield, Illinois, to work as a salesman, and eventually promoted him to department manager.

Gacy chloroformed him and drove him to his house, where his arms and head were restrained in a pillory device affixed to the ceiling and his feet locked into another device. Gacy later confessed to police that he considered stowing bodies in his attic, but had been worried about complications arising from "leakage". On March 16, Body 29 (Darrell Samson, identified November 18, 1979) was found beneath the dining room. The head and upper torso of several bodies unearthed beneath Gacy's property had been placed in plastic bags. He drew inspiration from a wide range of sources for his artwork, depicting subjects as diverse as clowns (including himself as Pogo or Patches), Christ, birds, skulls, his own home, and John Dillinger.Finance is provided by PayPal Credit (a trading name of PayPal UK Ltd, Whittaker House, Whittaker Avenue, Richmond-Upon-Thames, Surrey, United Kingdom, TW9 1EH).
