“This is the first I’ve ever heard of this particular case… But the outcome is perfect.”

check out the movie on this with Brian Denehey - it very good and it’s on YouTube. Very accurate and faithful to the book.

The movie with Brian Dennehy playing John Wayne Gacy was creepy as all hell.

and a 1991 TV movie of the same name starring Brian Dennehy

I saw that. Guess the town had enough.

Thank you, I will do that. Brian Dennehy was always one of my favorite second tier actors… One of those guys that you recognize, was always working, but never quite made it to the big Hollywood star.

I appreciate the tup, thank you!

This was a really good movie. I was riveted to it. Dennehy did a great job at this part.

Sometime look the movie up ‘In Broad Daylight’ with Brian Dennehy. It’s a pretty accurate portrayal of what went down. Good movie.

I remember reading about this case way back. Not an easy one to forget.

> Local authorities, including a coroner’s jury and a local grand jury, and even the FBI, investigated the killing...

Maybe if they’d put that effort in when the guy was committing rape, arson, assault, etc. people wouldn’t have been driven to do the laws job.

Dennehy was a character actor, not a leading man type. Some of those character actors are the best.

Yes, he always turned in a good performance in whatever he played in. I always remember him from “First Blood” as the sheriff that provoked the ire of John Rambo…

He was also in “Cocoon” too if I recall correctly.

So, the cause of death was Acute Lead Poisoning...?


No cardiac arrest.

Yep.

The Soap Box, the Ballot box, the Jury Box... They should always be tried first. But the ammo box should always be kept ready should they fail.

Knowing it is there will keep the first three honest.

Lived in a town years ago. Some yew York city types moved in. A couple if years after I left the city scum got some local kids hooked on heroin. One cold winter night all the city types houses burned to the ground. Just overwhelmed the volunteer fire department.
Cities all left the town.
