BTK Killer Was Absolutely Terrifying

For years, the BTK Killer remained one of America's most notorious unsolved serial murder cases. Calling himself “BTK”—short for “Bind, Torture, Kill”—Dennis Rader terrorised Wichita, Kansas, while sending disturbing communications to police and the media. This episode explores the BTK case, the crimes that shocked a community, the long investigation, and the unexpected mistakes that eventually helped investigators identify and arrest Rader decades later. A chilling true-crime story about fear, investigation, deception, and how one of America's longest-running murder cases was finally brought to an end.
