Defendant had confessed *93 that he had picked up one of the young men whose body was found in the river at Clark and Lawrence in Chicago, one block from where O'Rourke and his transsexual lover were living. He stated that he had graves dug so that he would have graves available. While John was arrested, he was released on bond later. Defendant described the killing of John Butkavitch, and stated that since Butkavitch threatened to kill him if he was released from his handcuffs, he killed Butkavitch instead.

Rignall woke up intermittently during the car ride to Gacy's house and recognized a few landmarks, but was chloroformed again and eventually lapsed into unconsciousness. Defendant also argues that the evidence of extreme disturbance was not the only mitigating evidence in the record, and that evidence which showed that defendant "was a good husband and stepfather * * *, a good friend to many * * *, a loving son and brother * * *, a successful businessman * * *, a civic leader active in charitable work and politics * * *," and while awaiting trial, "an ideal prisoner," also constituted mitigating evidence.

Defendant has cited no instance of failure to excuse for cause a prospective juror with a preconceived opinion but contends that the circuit court did not question the prospective jurors sufficiently to discover such opinions.

Defects in a presentence investigation report may be waived (People v. Godinez (1982), 91 Ill. 2d 47, 56-57; People v. Meeks (1980), 81 Ill. 2d 524, 533-34), and no objection was raised when the court proceeded to immediate sentencing on all the charges.

Dr. Heston found that there was "grossly insufficient evidence to support" the psychoanalytic scenario concerning how defendant "went about committing these killings," and that the diagnosis of paranoid schizophrenic was based on "pure inference." Defendant argues that the assistant State's Attorney's statement "that the psychiatric institute testified on behalf of defendants 75% of the time" was not based on facts in evidence.

Defendant then told Donnelly to dress, put Donnelly in his car, and told him it would be his last ride. The judge to whom the complaint is submitted *22 must make a judgment whether probable cause existed, and the information furnished him "must provide the affiant's answer to the magistrate's hypothetical question, `What makes you think that the defendant committed the offense charged?'" When asked on cross-examination whether defendant was indistinct or contradictory, Dr. Reifman replied: "He tries to obfuscate, or tries to present a picture that is not clear." After Gacy's arrest, Rignall's assault charge against him was widely covered in the press. Furthermore, Jeffrey mentioned the presence of another man while he was raped. Attacked By.

Defendant also argues that failure to instruct the jury that defendant's statements to the People's experts could be used only with regard to the issue of sanity deprived him of a fair sentencing hearing, because many of the statements could be used as factors in aggravation. This contention is difficult to accept in light of defense counsel's statement in opening argument that the insanity defense "is the only defense that we could use here," the defense experts' admission that defendant had committed the acts, and the lack of any evidence in the record which would tend to dispute the charge that defendant had committed the murders. After the attack, John dropped him at a park in Chicago. Defendant later offered another drink, which Donnelly refused, and defendant told him that he was a guest and that he should accept defendant's hospitality, and then held Donnelly's mouth open and poured the drink down his throat. Noting that "doubt is cast upon the trustworthiness of the patient's statements" when those statements are made to an examining expert in contemplation of trial, and that "most courts refuse to *70 permit the physician to act as the patient's conduit for narrative declarations," the court found no reversible error. Defendant told Donnelly that he had killed girls before, but that he had stopped doing this, because he found killing "guys" to be more interesting. Jack drew that diagram of the crawl space."
