- <p> DIED. JOHN WAYNE GACY, 52, serial killer; executed by lethal
- injection; in Joliet, Illinois. Fourteen years after his conviction
- for the torture-slayings of 33 young men and boys, Gacy went
- to his death proclaiming his innocence. Death-penalty advocates
- fostered a macabre carnival atmosphere during his final hours
- with events such as a jeering march through downtown Chicago
- organized by a local radio station.
