Murder Phone

Season 7 Part 1 Slipping Through The Cracks of Justice John Wayne Gacy: Episode 1 - "Gacy’s Dark Beginnings"

Tony Ciaglia Season 7 Episode 1

Murder Phone is back, and this season, we’re exposing killers who slipped through the cracks of justice. These monsters walked free when they should have been stopped !! 

  • And who better to start with than John Wayne Gacy—the monster who hid in plain sight.
  • Gacy was more than a murderer—he was a grinning demon with an insatiable hunger for control. A respected businessman, a community leader, even a KFC manager—behind it all lurked a predator.
  • With an abusive father and a talent for deception, Gacy learned to manipulate early. From a disturbing stint at a Las Vegas mortuary to running a secretive “gentlemen’s club” for young boys, the red flags were everywhere. But the system ignored them—until it was too late.
  • When Gacy’s crimes finally surfaced in 1967, he was convicted of sodomy and assault.A psychiatric evaluation labeled him as an antisocial psychopath.
  • But instead of being locked away forever, Gacy was released after just 18 months.That decision would cost 33 young boys their lives.

Join Al and Tony as they rip apart Gacy’s early years, exposing the arrogance, the lies, and the system’s shocking failures. This episode will enrage you, horrify you, and—true to Murder Phone style—find humor in the absurdity of it all.
