3.25
Tells the case of John Wayne Gacy from the perspective of the prosecutor and police. Follows the investigation for the first half, and the trial in the second half. Rates 3.25 as it does have a level of bias (reflecting the police in a good light, not that JWG wasn't a terrible person) and as I'm a fan of true crime I didn't learn much from reading this perspective
