LAW & ORDER STAR JACK KIDNAPPED BY KILLER CLOWN GACY

LAW & Order actor Jack Merrill admits he’s lucky to be alive because as a teen, he was kidnapped and sexually violated by Killer Clown John Wayne Gacy, who murdered at least 33 young men and boys.

Gacy, who dressed as a clown and performed for children, preyed on Merrill in 1978 when he spotted the “puny 19-year-old” walking home from a swim at a Chicago YMCA, pulled his car up and asked: “Do you want to go for a ride?”

Gacy, then 36, drove by a ramp of the Kennedy Expressway, parked, told the teen to lock the door and splashed liquid on a rag and forced it over Merrill’s face.

When Merrill, who had a boyfriend and lived in an apartment, came to, he was handcuffed behind Gacy’s Norwood Park Township home.
