EP. 226- SERIAL KILLER: BTK (Bind Torture Kill) | Pt. 2: The Murders

For 31 years, the city of Wichita lived in terror of a ghost. Between 1974 and 1991, Dennis Rader – the mild-mannered family man, church leader, and compliance officer – murdered ten people in a series of meticulously planned home invasions that still haunt the American true-crime landscape. He didn’t just kill. He staged elaborate, sadistic “projects”: cutting phone lines, waiting patiently in closets, binding entire families with cords pulled from venetian blinds, torturing them for hours, and strangling them one by one while the others watched in helpless horror.

This is the story of how a monster hid in plain sight for three decades.
