      I have a friend who has started online dating and let one guy come to her house the first date. I asked her if she had a death wish, asked her how did she think sickos and serial killers find their victims. She said “ No he’s a nice guy,” I said well duh! Do you ever hear people say” yeah we knew it”, no they say “ we never suspected, he was so nice”

    The creepiest fact is when gacy was arrested he immediately knew why and he asked something like "have the others been arrested too?" imypling there were accomplices but officially the police never found accomplices.

      Jeffrey Dahmer was an unbelievable example of that! The police didn't search the bags in his car when he was pulled for drink driving he said it was yard trimming that he was taking to a dump and they told him to go home (was his first victim)
      Later on in his killings the police escorted an escaped victim back to his apartment when jeffrey caught back up to him in the street after saying he was his boyfriend and they'd just had an argument. The boy was 14 and the police took him back to a killers house where he was later dismembered and eaten

    "Fun Fact" for everyone that thinks IT was based on John Wayne Gacy.
    Stephen King has said MANY times that Pennywise is NOT based on John Wayne Gacy. He used Ronald McDonald as a comparison frequently (a clown that people trust). If you watch interviews that Stephen King has done he brings up Ronald McDonald, Bozo, and Clarabelle as his inspirations. The story of IT as a whole was inspired by "Three Billy Goats Gruff". SK has actually been very vocal about IT NOT being anything about John Wayne Gacy.

      They are psychopaths who are able to use charm to trick their victims into trusting them. It's usually how a serial killer is able to continue racking up so many bodies. The more deranged ones are too sloppy and unstable to think about using charm to keep up. It also makes the search for them harder as they are able to keep their personal lives and their murderous ones separate, many psychopathic serial killers have mentioned how once they are done with the act they don't think about it anymore until they are ready to do it again. It's amazingly disturbing how their brains work.

    I use to work with a guy who was on Des Plaines PD (the department who arrested Gacy) when Gacy was arrested. He told me that while he wasn't involved in the investigation or arrest he was on shift the night they arrested him. He said Gacy was in his holding cell screaming for his lawyer and saying how he would never spend a day in jail because no jury would ever convict him.

When he didn't take them where they wanted to go, my teacher, from the backseat but Gacy in a choke hold while his friend took the wheel. He finally agreed to drop them off so they didn't crash. Him and his friend were 16, and likely would've been 2 more of his victims if they hadn't done anything.

Since my father was already working with my grandfather at the time, she told him that my father wasn't interested. At the time my grandmother didn't know who the man was but later found out that it was Gacy after he was arrested. Apparently, Gacy used to go to middle schools in the Des Plains area and would post job advertisements on their bulletin boards for young kids looking to make some money over the summer. But even more unsettling, he would use those boards to get information such as phone numbers and addresses of those students. Absolutely creepy.

But when he went to Gacys house Gacy tied him up in zip ties behind his back and left the room for some reason. When he came back the kid freed himself and Gacy started wrestling him and lost. And Gacy said that was your test welcome to the team. I’m pretty sure that kid didn’t go work for him. But that’s crazy if he lost that wrestling match he would have died.

    Wow, my mom knew gacy when he was 13. They dated for a few years, highschool sweethearts and whatnot. But she broke up with him before university, bc he always left the seat up when visiting her at my grandparent's home. My grandpa said, "any boy who misses the bowl by that much has got something wrong with him." This convinced her to break off their plans to elope to Chicago in 1971. Im so lucky to have been born, if gacy had better bathroom etiquette, I'd probably never have existed!
