Before the clown makeup and the crawl space filled with bodies, there was a young boy desperate for the approval of his father. In Part One of our John Wayne Gacy series, we will be peeling back the evil layers of one of America's most infamous serial killers and examining his awful childhood marked with a dysfunctional household, multiple forms of abuse, humiliation, and rigid, unrealistic expectations of masculinity.
