  • Bodies in the Crawl Space: The Evidence That Couldn't Be Explained Away

    Bodies in the Crawl Space: The Evidence That Couldn't Be Explained Away
    2026/09/08
    Twenty-nine bodies. A crawl space beneath a ranch house in Norwood Park Township. A contractor, a clown, and six years of murder that neighbours explained away as a sewer problem.

    This episode follows the full arc of the John Wayne Gacy case from the ground up — how Gacy built the community credibility that shielded him, how the crawl space at 8213 West Summerdale Avenue became one of the most disturbing crime scenes in American history, and how a fifteen-year-old named Robert Piest, disappearing on a December night in 1978, finally broke it all open.

    We examine how investigators pulled Gacy's prior Iowa sodomy conviction, placed him under surveillance, and within days had cause to enter the house — where the smell reached officers before anything else did. We walk through the forensic recovery operation that uncovered thirty-three victims in total: twenty-six found beneath the crawl space, four recovered from the Des Plaines River, three never found at all.

    We also sit with what the conviction and execution didn't resolve. Eight of Gacy's victims remain unidentified. No confirmed names. No families notified. No closure. That fact — more than the trial, more than the lethal injection — is what defines the true cost of this case.

    This is the chapter that examines how trust warps perception, why credibility is the most effective concealment, and what it means when a case is considered closed while eight people still have no names.

    On December 13, 1978, fifteen-year-old Robert Piest told his mother he was stepping out to speak with a contractor about a summer job. He never came home. That single disappearance unravelled six years of murder, thirty-three victims, and one of the most methodically concealed crimes in American history.

    This episode follows the collapse of John Wayne Gacy's carefully constructed world — from the moment police first pulled his name from a missing persons report, to the December 21 warrant that sent an officer into the crawl space beneath 8213 West Summerdale Avenue, and the weeks of excavation that followed. Twenty-six sets of remains were recovered from the ground beneath a house where Gacy had thrown block parties and hosted political fundraisers. Four more victims came from the Des Plaines River.

    We examine the trial that began in February 1980, where the defense argued insanity and the prosecution used Gacy's own clinical diagrams and detailed confessions against him. The jury took less than two hours. Thirty-three convictions. A death sentence.

    Then comes Menard Correctional Center — six years on Illinois death row, the appeals, the paintings, the final meal of fried shrimp and pizza, and the execution by lethal injection on May 10, 1994.

    And still, after everything: eight of Gacy's victims remain unidentified. DNA technology has named some in recent years. Others are still waiting. This episode sits with that fact — and what it means for the families who never got an answer.

  • The Last Performance: Death Row, Denial, and Eight Unnamed Victims

    The Last Performance: Death Row, Denial, and Eight Unnamed Victims
    2026/09/06
    Twenty-nine bodies beneath a suburban floor, and John Wayne Gacy spent his final fourteen years doing what he'd always done — controlling the story. In this closing chapter of the full arc, we follow Gacy from conviction to Menard Correctional Center, through the death row years that defined his final public persona, to his execution on May 10, 1994.

    After a jury deliberated for just two hours and convicted Gacy on all thirty-three counts in March 1980, he settled into a pattern that mirrored the one he'd established in Norwood Park. He painted — clowns, skulls, charged images that found their way into private collections and public bonfires. He gave interviews. He maintained his innocence, pointing to his former construction crew, constructing alternative narratives that courts never accepted but that kept him visible, talked about, and on his own terms.

    The execution itself brought its own strange details: a last meal of fried chicken, fried shrimp, and strawberries. A final statement. The lethal injection that took longer than expected. The crowds gathered outside Stateville Correctional Center, some to protest capital punishment, others to celebrate.

    But the case didn't close cleanly. Eight of Gacy's thirty-three victims remain unidentified today, their names unknown decades after their deaths. Advances in forensic genealogy have brought investigators closer, with renewed identification efforts continuing into the 2020s. Eight families still don't know.

    This episode traces the full final arc — the performance that never stopped, the execution that ended it, and the eight missing names that mean the case remains, in a real sense, unfinished.
