John Wayne Gacy Jr. was an American serial killer and rapist who was convicted of sexually assaulting and murdering at least 33 teenage boys and young men between 1972 and 1978 in Chicago, Illinois. He became known as the 'Killer Clown' due to his volunteer work at fundraising events and children's parties where he dressed as 'Pogo the Clown,' a character he created. Most of his murders occurred in his neighborhood, with victims typically lured to his home through persuasion or violence. Gacy was sentenced to death for 12 murders in 1980 and executed in 1994.
