We go into detail about his upbringing, his early attention at physical violence towards women, his head injuries and his time in high school and community college. We talk about how he stalked women and harassed them in his time as a compliance officer. We finally speak about how he was caught - a pap smear from his daughter by Kansas State University providing a familial match between Rader and the Wegerle victim.
