Season 7 Slipping Through the Cracks of Justice,John Wayne Gacy Part 3 “Screams on Summerdale”

Murder Phone

In this harrowing third installment of the Gacy series, Tony Ciaglia and his no-bullshit co-host and dad Al—take listeners deep into the heart of darkness at 8213 West Summerdale Avenue. With chilling precision and raw emotion, Screams on Summerdale exposes how John Wayne Gacy’s monstrous acts escalated under the noses of neighbors, law enforcement, and even his own wife.

As the bodies begin to pile up in the crawl space—the cracks in the justice system widen into chasms. Tony and Al explore the horrific timeline from Gacy’s 1976 divorce to his transformation into a full-blown predator. Teenagers disappear, one after another—many of them Gacy’s own employees—while neighbors hear muffled screams in the night and do nothing.

The show dissects Gacy’s depraved “Cruising Years,” revealing a sociopath emboldened by silence, protected by sealed records, and empowered by his reputation as a charming businessman and civic clown.

Featuring real audio clips, photos of victims, and explosive commentary, Screams on Summerdale pulls no punches. It demands listeners ask the hard questions: How many red flags were ignored? How many lives could have been saved? And how did a community sleep through the screams?
