Gary Charles Evans

Gary Charles Evans experienced a horrible childhood at the hands of his alcoholic parents. He was the victim of physical, psychological, and sexual abuse. He left out on his own at an early age and lived off the money he earned robbing stores and houses in New York. But, in 1985, Gary committed his first murder, and it seems as though it became easy for him after that. He killed store owners when they got in his way and he killed his accomplices when he thought they had stolen from him. Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss the life and crimes of Gary Evans. He had a childhood that you wouldn't wish on your worst enemy. And, it seems early on, he did whatever he felt he had to do to get the money he needed to survive. But, the question with Evans is why did he begin killing? His first murder was that of his partner and childhood friend. He mistakenly thought this man had stolen from him. Over the years, he murdered five people and spent a lot of time incarcerated. But, police never knew he was a murderer, right up to the time that he confessed. Gary then made the decision he would not be locked up forever or wait on death row for his execution. While be transporting from a court appearance, he jumped off a bridge over the Hudson River in what authorities have called a suicide.
