        Technically this is correct, but shouldn’t it read more than 40?

        40 is more than 30. So, TECHNICALLY, I guess.

        They never gave a damn. No missing persons report. That's how Gacy got away with it. Picking his victims very carefully

        There's a great made-for-tv movie about Gacy called To Catch a Killer starring the late great Brian Dennehy. It was one of his best performances. Brian was absolutely terrifying as John Wayne Gacy.
