What Was Left Out

Cases: John Wayne Gacy, Dean Corll, John Norman

Promotion of revised and false sub-narratives. Summary; that John Wayne Gacy (JWG) and Dean Corll “belonged to” “a larger network of pornographers and sex traffickers” and “were associated with” a large nationwide sex trafficking ring run by John Norman.

What are people saying about this, what specific claims are being made? I chose a short video on Youtube for a random sampling, because it has multiple people expressing a range of ideas; “John Wayne Gacy’s connection to sex trafficker John Norman”. You needn’t watch it if you don’t wish to, I’ll quote from the speakers, here.

Karen Conti : (repeating things she claims JWG said to her) – there may have been a snuff film operation, that some of these young men and boys were being killed and videotaped, and the videos being sold on “the black market”. JWG didn’t say who was involved. In her own words; “there was probably a black market for that kind of stuff…back then”.

JWG speaking; (previously recorded interview) “Philip Paske was involved with John Norman, and Norman was running ‘boys for hire’. They were making snuff films with young boys” (from another segment not in this video) “They ought to look through Norman’s confiscated films to see if they identify any [of JWG] victims”.

What is being left out?

1) JWG was in police custody, December of 1978.

2) the first video cameras compatible with video cassette recorders came on the American market in 1979* prior to that, video cameras came paired with reel to reel recorders (portapaks). During the time when Gacy’s victims were being raped, tortured, murdered and slaughtered, there were no video cassette cameras. Young men and boys were NOT being killed and videotaped, by Paske-Norman or by anyone else, during the years that Gacy was killing boys and young men – because the technological means to do this did not exist at that time.

3) similarly, there were technological obstacles to making pornographic movies with the popular Super 8mm home movie cameras. These cameras recorded frame images onto a film strip encased in a cassette. Developing that film strip was not something that anyone could do “at home”, it required a proper film lab and expertise. Sending your Super 8 cassettes to Kodak labs for developing and hoping their lab technicians wouldn’t notice criminal images on it, was so obviously stupid that no one would risk it. Not even John Norman. That may be why there’s no evidence of any “confiscated John Norman” films. He just didn’t make his own pornographic films. Norman was quite adept as a photographer, he could develop photo film in a closet if necessary, like thousands of other American amateur photographers of all ages were doing. That’s the way he created nude or pornographic images of boys, as photos, not films. The fact that JWG apparently didn’t know this, suggests that he didn’t really know much about Norman. Gacy’s attempt to shift blame for murdered boys and men buried under his floorboards; “those boys were making snuff films and burying the bodies in my house!”, has practical realities problems.

4) “I’m going out to make a snuff film! See you, with the video/film, in a couple hours”, if it was really that simple, Gacy surely would have done it himself! It sounds like JWG was the one lusting to make snuff porn. His sister says she found packets of pornographic pictures taped to the underneath of a dresser drawer. In her brief look through, she saw they depicted JWG in a threesome with other men. “In talking with Marty Zelinski, who was an employee and family photographer for John Gacy, he was asked to photograph pornography by Gacy and turned it down. In Terry Sullivan’s hand-written case notes, they show that Gacy asked several living victims if they’d like to appear in male pornography”**

But why would Paske, and/or Norman, WANT to make snuff porn? They weren’t like Gacy. Gacy murdered young men and boys. Paske’s criminal record for assaults shows he could be violent, but he never murdered anyone, he was only the lookout in the robbery where someone was stabbed to death, he wasn’t the killer. Norman never murdered anyone. Gacy abducted people and held them captive with restraints; “Gacy chloroformed him [Jeff Rignall] and drove him to his house, where his arms and head were restrained in a pillory device affixed to the ceiling and his feet locked into another device”, there’s no evidence that any of Norman’s male hustlers were abduction victims, nor that he ever held them captive. Gacy sexually tortured his victims, he delighted in causing pain and seeing them suffer. John Norman’s extensive criminal convictions record doesn’t include acts of rape or sadism.

If John Wayne Gacy “belonged to a nationwide sex trafficking ring run by John Norman”, what would that mean?

1. It can’t just mean meeting Phil Paske, giving him some work, and having a beer with him a few times in Gacy’s house. Norman’s passion at that time was his Delta Project. Wouldn’t belonging to Norman’s ring mean joining Delta? Becoming a Delta Dorm Don? Taking in a cadet or two? No evidence for any of that, though. Norman liked to give his sponsors frequent ‘updates’ on Delta. There’s a video where you can see his folksy-newsy style. He crows about Phil Paske and how pleased he is to have him as an “executive assistant”. No mention of John, no “John WG has come on board, I’m sure he will prove an asset”, or anything. Tracy Ullman observed that pedophiles had ways of communicating even if they never met face to face. That’s true, and the newsletters perhaps most important of all. Were any copies of “The John Norman Newsletter” found in Gacy’s home? Copies of Hermes Journal? Better Life Monthly? Broadstreet Journal? No? I don’t see much belonging going on.

What is the false narrative underlying all of this, this and the rewrites of the Corll case going on in tandem?

It’s a false narrative in which the Serial Killers and butchers of boys, ala JWG and Dean Corll, are fully and openly accepted and embraced by the entire boy-lover/pederast underground, as their Brothers. Because all of them are really clones of Corrl, or Gacy. Perpetually lusting to torture and murder boys, and especially, to generate and view torture photos and snuff films. So they are all too happy, the pornographers and the boy hustler pimps, the BL newsletter and journal publishers and all their subscribers, to help a Brother out. To sell the serial slayers, boy sex slaves, knowing they will be tortured and murdered. To keep their secrets, and help hide the evidence when necessary.

Thankfully, however, it is a false narrative, it was never the reality. Dean Corll could never have been buddies with Roy Ames, not if Ames knew the truth about him. And JWG could never have been buddies with John Norman, not if Norman knew what Gacy had done.

If there had ever been a Congress of the self-professed boy-lover pederasts, all the subscribers to all the BL newsletters, and John Norman got up on stage and declared; “My friends! Welcome our new Brother Dean from Houston. He likes to torture and murder boys!” There would be a riot. If they didn’t lynch him right there, many were surely drop the dime on him to police as fast as they could.

Because, boy-lover pederasts develop deep-seated delusional rationalizations about their relationship with the boys in their lives. They need to genuinely believe that their relationships with boys are beneficial to the boys, that they are making their lives better, giving them everything they want and need, at the least making them happy. These rationalizations protect them from full conscious awareness, that they are in reality harming the boys. Not physically, not many open boy-beaters in their ranks. But the sexual exploitation is harming them, the adult “boyfriends” are betraying their innocent trust, and the love they profess for the boys is ultimately a manipulation that will turn to poison as they mature. And when the wheels eventually come off the delusional perception of themselves, and they can no longer lie to themselves, it’s not uncommon for them to self-destruct. “OMG! I’m really a monster!”

Having someone openly confess their desire to harm boys, while professing to be one of them, would be too confronting for them. They would never stand for it. “That’s not who we are! You’re not one of us, you’re a monster”. There’s not a smidgen of understanding about boy-lover psychology evident, in the false narrative rewrite of historic cases currently being evangelized in multiple formats; podcasts, books, documentaries, etc., despite involvement by the illustrious Dr. Ramsland. And I think I may know why.

Tracy Ullman said; “When myself, Alison True and Bill Dorsch started working to unearth details behind the John Wayne Gacy case, I had recently been widowed and was working two jobs while raising three kids”, “For years, all three of us were called “conspiracy nuts”. Our ideas were refuted. We were sworn at and had phones hung up on us. We were roundly and publicly criticized by people who had a PR advantage..”

It’s not about uncovering and documenting the facts about historic crime cases. It’s about “winning”, and the way you win is by developing a PR advantage over the people who had ‘oppressed’ you in the past, and flooding public perception about those cases with your personal narrative about them – the story that you want to be true, about them. It’s about kicking sand in their faces, shouting; “I told you that I had as much right to play in this sandbox as you, and now that I’m 10 feet tall, I’m going to push you out and make sure that no one will ever plays with you again”
