Gacy had at least one accomplice, two lawyers believe

Did the “Killer Clown” act alone?

Two Chicago lawyers have re-examined the circumstances surrounding the disappearances of three victims of serial killer John Wayne Gacy — and concluded he probably had one or more accomplices.

Criminal defense attorneys Robert Stephenson and partner Steven Becker took a fresh look at victims Russell Nelson of Minneapolis and Robert Gilroy and John Mowery of Chicago.

The three young men disappeared in 1977 and were among 29 victims found in 1978 on Gacy’s property in unincorporated Norwood Park Township. Four other victims were found in the Des Plaines River. Gacy, a building contractor who performed as an amateur clown, was executed in 1994.

I hope they do pursue who his "associates" might have been. Ringall was the one that opened this case up and got him captured and arrested. Beyond that it appears credible that he said other's were there, or at least one additional person. We may have some heavy duty criminals involved walking amongst us.
