Red Flags

Ep.7: Did John Wayne Gacy Act Alone?


Listen Later

If you’re a true crime fan, you’ve heard all about the lone-wolf killer John Wayne Gacy, the ‘killer clown’ who assaulted and murdered 33 boys and young men. But did you know he might have had accomplices? Tori investigates a rumor about the Gacy case brought to her attention by a Red Flags listener, Damon, who called in to the Red Flags hotline. In an interview with Chicago lawyer Steven Becker, Tori finds out there might be much more to the Gacy case than any of us thought. We also touch on the new Richard Ramirez documentary on Netflix that lots of folks are watching.
