Rooted in Time Genealogy hosts Nicole and Melody are continuing their deep dive into the ancestry and genealogy of the prolific serial killer John Wayne Gacy in the current series: Genealogy of Serial Killers, Cult Leaders, Murderers, and Miscreants. Podcast 14 will examine John Wayne Gacy's maternal genealogy and continue to seek answers to questions about nature and nurture, specifically generational trauma. We analyze John Wayne Gacy's familial genealogy through interviews, oral histories, genealogical records, historical documents, Newspaper articles, geospatial analyses, cultural awareness, and mental health knowledge to better understand the "Why."
