Jeffrey Rignall is an American man who survived an attack by serial killer John Wayne Gacy. In 1979, Rignall wrote the book ''29 Below'' about the experience. ==Attack by John Wayne Gacy== Rignall identified as bisexual and lived with his girlfriend and a male, described by Rignall's attorney as a "live-in companion". While walking to a local gay bar on May 22, 1978, Gacy lured the 26-year-old Rignall into his car with the promise of a ride and a "joint", or marijuana cigarette. Gacy then held a rag soaked in chloroform over Rignall's mouth until he passed out. Rignall woke up intermittently during the car ride to Gacy's house but was chloroformed again each time he stirred and eventually lapsed into unconsciousness. When Rignall awoke, he was inside of Gacy's house.〔 Rignall was fastened to a torture device called "the rack",〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://iml.jou.ufl.edu/projects/spring05/charney-perez/notorious.htm )〕 which was similar to the one used by serial killer Dean Corll in his torture and killings of boys.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.carpenoctem.tv/serial-killers/john-wayne-gacy/ )〕 The device kept Rignall restrained on a wooden board suspended by chains with holes for his arms and head to go through.〔 Gacy stood naked in front of him with an array of dildos and described in detail what he would do to Rignall with each of them. Rignall was brutally raped, drugged, whipped, and tortured by Gacy.〔 In later accounts, Rignall stated that there was another man in the room while Gacy raped him. When Rignall next regained consciousness, he woke up under a statue in Chicago's Lincoln Park. He made it back to his girlfriend's house and she took him to Northwestern Memorial Hospital, where he stayed for six days. In the hospital Rignall recounted the experience to police, but they were skeptical of his story and did not issue an arrest warrant.〔 Ringall testified against Gacy in ''People v. Gacy'' and decided that the defendant was not legally sane at the time of the attack, citing "...the beastly and animalistic ways he attacked me".〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.leagle.com/decision/1984104103Ill2d1_1104 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jeffrey Rignall」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
