Her killer dragged her body a matter of yards from the side street she walked into - out of the sight of witnesses - after striking her a few times over the head with a hammer, so he could continue his attack. I actually drove past that location once about fifteen years ago. Surely this case doesn't classify as a kidnapping? --Kieronoldham (talk) 15:46, 21 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Someone told me you might be of help in creating an article on Michael Rossi who was one of the accomplices and employees of John Wayne Gacy. I guess the main problem boils down to how prolific really is Rossi to create an article, I've been needing to still go through some other sources and get some FOIA requests to probably make a more extensive page if it's possible but I do own a few books that talk in parts about him that could be of contribution.
Hi. I would be happy to help, Anhedonicx. What I will say is that as Philip Paske has his article, maybe Rossi should too. As of a few years ago at least I believe Rossi was still alive, so maybe we should be aware of this fact when proceeding. I have ample sources and knowledge to share as the article is populated, so a lack of references from a wide range will not be an issue. Could also find a Commons image of him to add too.--Kieronoldham (talk) 04:57, 18 January 2025 (UTC).[reply]
From my knowledge I believe he is still living too, I know I have gotten FOIA request information on Rossi regarding his criminal record.. (Have found a Birthdate elsewhere June 10 1959, which I discovered through a website where he hadn't gone through and had his record cleansed it seemed yet as he had on many other sites) though I also haven't seen any produced obituaries. I've still needed to get information on a crime he was involved in that crossed interstate lines.. it revolved around a workers union planting bombs at movie theaters and I know there's mentions in a Justice Department document as well as in Omnipotent: Don't Ask, Don't Tell.. but I was curious on other details of that to hopefully make the article span out somewhat.. I've been an incredible procrasinator the last week and had issues doing FOIA requests for a bit so I really need to request that.
I am curious about Commons images due to the lack of images out there, someone had found a few from a yearbook on Classmates though I'm not sure if copyright would be a factor though any yearbook uploaded to classmates can be viewed by anyone who makes a free account.

I knew Rossi was born around that date, as the book Buried Dreams states he was sixteen when he first met Gacy on May 22, 1976. This article from July 23, 1982 states he was 23 on that date. This image of Rossi could be uploaded to the Commons, but it is low quality (a higher quality publication of the image would of course suffice). I do believe an image of him from the late 1970s or early 1980s would be ideal for the article.--Kieronoldham (talk) 01:10, 19 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
