So he went to Chicago.
And...
for a while, lived with his second wife.
And she had two children, I believe, who weren't Gacy's biological children.
He lived with them, and the murders, there may have been a murder that occurred while she was still there, but she divorced him, got out of the picture, and that's when the rate of murders really accelerated.
He was a sadist.
He tortured β one of them lived and wrote a book called 29 Below about his experience surviving Gacy.
And interestingly, he's the one surviving victim, I believe, who says β
He was half knocked out by chloroform or whatever Gacy had used to knock him out.
But he said he saw a second man in the room.
That's all the mystery of the Gacy case was that second man.
Was he hallucinating it or was there really a second man?
Gacy had some bad actors working with him.
And I think the police suspected that one of them was involved.
But anyway, this person who survived Gacy's torture,
Yeah, he described just a horrible ordeal of being, I think, electrically shocked.
He was put in the bathtub for a while.
So there were electrical shocks.
As I said, chloroform.
And he loved tightening a noose around someone's neck and then loosening it and tightening again and loosening it.
