Gary Charles Evans (October 7, 1954 – August 14, 1998) was an American thief and confessed serial killer in and around the Capital District, New York.
His penchant for stealing antiques and his multiple escapes from custody — including one that ended in his death — made him headline news in the area on numerous occasions.
He disturbed the lives of many; a well known documentary on "Destination America" describes the life of a family who was terrorized by the killer.
