The BTK Killer- A Monster in the Neighborhood

The BTK Killer- A Monster in the Neighborhood

Bind, Torture, Kill - that was the modus operandi of Dennis Rader, better known as the BTK killer. Dennis terrorized the midwest for decades, breaking into women's homes, tying them, brutally torturing them, and ultimately strangling them to death. Dennis was able to scope out his victims in broad daylight by using his position as a security alarm technician to survey his future victims. He also taunted investigators and the public at large by sending letters detailing his crimes, but it would be this cockiness that would ultimately lead to his arrest.Amy and Chris break down Dennis' incredible double life that allowed him to hide in plain sight, and his horrifying reign of terror, which all started with the murder of 4 members of the Otero family, including the 2 young children. Dennis continued until 1991, claiming his 10th and final victim. He is currently serving 10 consecutive life sentences in the El Dorado Correctional Facility in Kansas.Download Best Fiends FREE today on the App Store or Google Play!Take your FREE in-depth hair consultation and get 15% off your first order today by going to Prose.com/TRUE Send your true crime suggestions to hello@truecrimerecaps!Don’t forget to subscribe to the podcast for free wherever you're listening or by using this link: https://bit.ly/TrueCrimeRecapsPodcastIf you want to support the show, and get all the episodes ad-free go to https://truecrimerecaps.supercast.tech/If you like the show, telling a friend about it would be helpful!
