On this week’s episode, Ame and Kenzie cover the capture of BTK from the Netflix documentary Catching Killers. Dennis Radar, also known as BTK (bind torture kill) threatened the peace and security of every man, woman and child in the mid 70’s when he tortured and killed an entire family in their suburban home, in the middle of the day. A title holding member of his church, married with two children, he went on to murder 6 more people in the Kansas City and Wichita area with no capture or conviction. But when the horror and carnage ended, many felt they could breathe again. Then in the early 2000’s, cryptic letters and packages began showing up, all signed: BTK. The elusive man who had evaded police for nearly 30 years was coming out from his hiding place. Police were worried he would go back to his need for killing. Luckily, this time technology had passed up his clever antics. Cameras, security, DNA, and police work had advanced enough where Dennis wouldn’t be able to get away so easily again. This is the story of how a seemingly normal man living in a nice neighborhood was arrested and put away all because he got cocky and couldn’t let his desires to be known rest with his victims.
