Modus Operandi
Gacy's modus operandi (MO) was very horrific as he would lure boys and young teen boys to his home and would then trick them into getting into handcuffs and then start by raping them. After he raped the boys he would then either suffocate them with there own socks or underwear, or he would also strangle them with a piece of rope or a board. They were able to link some victims to Gacy because they were found with either there socks or underwear still taped into there mouth. There was one victim who died by Gacy shoving paper towel down his throat until the boy suffocated.
