Weirdest TC book I read "The Last Victim"
by Jason Moss.

Weird because this young man decided he wanted to correspond with the most infamous killers in US history.

He gets to meet J. W. Gacy, which of course, does not turn out well.

4. Damn, he certainly looks different from the kid who wrote the book

I have always been highly suspicious of many of the details of his two days with Gacy. Very convenient for Jason that it wasn't published until after Gacy's execution. I'm not defending Gacy (he was indeed a monster), but I'm just saying...

5. I wondered how Gacy got away with his actions
during that fateful meeting.

Also, as much as I love true crime, only a true nutjob would start bringing serial killers into one's sphere, so to speak.

6. That is one of my favorites
if what he says is true, it is certainly a rather disturbing story. Gacy is a fucking pig, btw. The whole incest gig he tried to get Moss to do is disgusting

8. I own it....
It's a great read...and it makes you scared for that kid. Gacy was truly insane and in a class by himself when it came to manipulation. Jason Moss is a bigtime attorney now, and still spooked about his brush with the insanity.
