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.
