Dennis Rader, the self-proclaimed "BTK" killer—short for "Bind, Torture, Kill"—terrified Wichita and Park City, Kansas, for nearly two decades. But behind the mask of a monstrous mastermind was a man whose crimes were riddled with laughable mistakes, sloppy execution, and a bizarre craving for attention. In this episode, we dismantle the myth of BTK as a criminal genius and reveal the truth: Dennis Rader wasn't brilliant—he was a bungler. Tune in as we unravel the twisted, error-filled path of one of America's most incompetent, yet still deadly, serial killers.   Sources: Once Upon a Crime - Patreon Bonus: BTK Blunders, April 26, 2023 Confessions of a Serial Killer: The Untold Story of Dennis Rader, The BTK Killer, Katherine Ramsland, PhD, ForeEdge Books, 2016.    Sponsors:  Gabb Mobile - gabb.com/once  Spot & Tango - spotandtango.com/once La Pure - All thriller, no filler!

Reports of the strange “Hat Man”, a mysterious entity dressed in a long-brimmed hat, continue to pour in from all over the world. Who is the Hat Man? What does he want? Why have so many people around the world been visited by this strange entity? (The Hat Man And Shadow People) *** If you've ever seen the film “The Wicker Man”, you are familiar with the ending of the burning giant made of wood and the human sacrifice therein. But is it possible that this terrifying idea was not an invention of novelists and screenwriters – but was a very real practice at one time? Or even today?

Her dissection at the hands of the madman was nothing short of gruesome. (The Dissection of Annie Chapman) *** Annie Chapman likely got a good look at her killer. At the time, scientists thought they could user her corpse's eyeballs to identify the attacker. Is something like that possible? Could the last visual image of someone's life remain burned into the eye even after death?

Text a Message to the ShowThis is the second part of our story of Detective Dana Gouge, who handcuffed the BTK serial killer, Dennis Rader.  If you haven't heard part one which told the story of a narcissistic serial killer who couldn't stop talking… then what are you doing?! Go back and listen to Ep 110 right now!  We left off with Detective Gouge putting the handcuffs on Dennis Rader before the task force took him to be interviewed.  Dana is going to tell us a bit about those interviews but what I find interesting, and what I think is missing from your typical true crime podcast, is what effect it had on the detectives to encounter a truly evil man, to be the team working such a large case, and then to wrap it up.  So I'm going to explore these topics with Dana and talk about how that affects him twenty years later.But first let me tell you what I did not reveal in part 1: the reason I know Dana Gouge.  Dana isn't just a retired homicide detective, today he's also a chaplain.  In fact at the time of this recording he's in the process of becoming a police chaplain at the same agency where I serve.  I'm really excited about the prospect of serving alongside him and his background in both policing and now counseling, pastoral care, ministry, and theology make him an excellent person to discuss the topic what to do when you encounter true evil. Dana's invitation: May 18, 2025 at One Hope Church, 9400 Nall, Overland Park, KSMusic is by Brian Bolger and by Chris HaugenHey Chaplain Podcast Episode 110.5Tags:Serial Killer, BTK Killer, Chaplaincy, Detectives, DNA, Evil, Faith, Family, FBI, History, Hospice, Infighting, Interviews, Investigations, Murder, Police, Task Forces, Theodicy, Wichita, KansasSupport the showThanks for Listening!

Text a Message to the ShowToday is a crime history episode on the BTK serial killer, Dennis Rader.  Rader is known to have committed at least ten murders between 1974 and 1991, communicating with the media about his crimes but not getting caught.  He called himself BTK, for "bind, torture, kill," and had disappeared for 13 years when suddenly he began communicating with the media and the police again.  This is the story of how he got caught. My guest today is Dana Gouge, who was a homicide detective at the Wichita Police Department.  This interview is going to cover the investigation from 2003 to 2005 which led to Dana being the detective to actually handcuff one of America's most famous serial killers.Music is by Brian Bolger Hey Chaplain Podcast Episode 110Tags:Serial Killer, BTK Killer, CODIS, Cold Case, Detective, DNA, Evidence, FBI, History, Investigations, Journalists, KBI, Murder, Police, Profilers, Task Forces, Wichita, KansasSupport the showThanks for Listening!

Τρεις δεκαετίες, ο τρόμος στο Wichita του Kansas ήταν τρία γράμματα: «BTK». Ήταν η υπογραφή του δολοφόνου, που σήμαινε (Δένω-Βασανίζω-Σκοτώνω). Το επέλεξε ο ίδιος ο δολοφόνος, ώστε να γνωρίζουν όλοι τι έκανε σε εκείνους που είχε σκοτώσει και τι να περιμένουν, αν ερχόταν η σειρά τους.Μεταξύ 1974 και 1991 ο «BTK» σκότωσε 10 ανθρώπους: έναν άνδρα, επτά γυναίκες και δύο παιδιά. Δεν ήταν επιλεκτικός στην επιλογή των θυμάτων του και δεν είχε έναν συγκεκριμένο τύπο. Χρειάστηκε να περάσουν 14 χρόνια από την τελευταία δολοφονία του για να αποκαλυφθεί η ταυτότητά του. Στις 26 Φεβρουαρίου 2005, η αστυνομία ανακοίνωσε ότι είχε συλλάβει τον «BTK». Τον Dennis Lynn Rader.Στις 15 Ιανουαρίου 1974 ο Charlie Otero που ήταν 15 ετών επέστρεψε στο σπίτι από το σχολείο και βρήκε τα πτώματα της μητέρας, του πατέρα και δύο αδελφών του, της 11χρονης Josephine και του 9χρονου Joseph. Ο 38χρονος πατέρας του και ο αδελφός του είχαν πεθάνει από ασφυξία (είχαν πλαστικές σακούλες περασμένες και δεμένες στο κεφάλι). Η 34χρονη μητέρα του είχε στραγγαλιστεί με ένα σχοινί και η αδερφή του είχε στραγγαλιστεί και στη συνέχεια ο δολοφόνος την είχε κρεμάσει στο υπόγειο.Τέσσερις μήνες μετά, η 21χρονη Kathryn Bright και ο 19χρονος αδελφός της Kevin δέχτηκαν επίθεση, όταν επέστρεψαν στο σπίτι τους στις 4 Απριλίου 1974. Ο εισβολέας ανάγκασε τον αδελφό της Bright να τη δέσει στο μπροστινό υπνοδωμάτιο και μετά τον περιόρισε σε άλλο δωμάτιο. Αφού έψαξε το σπίτι, ο εισβολέας προσπάθησε να στραγγαλίσει τον Kevin, εκείνος αντιστάθηκε, αλλά ο εισβολέας τον πυροβόλησε δυο φορές. Ο Kevin προσποιήθηκε ότι ήταν νεκρός και όταν ο εισβολέας βγήκε από το δωμάτιο, δραπέτευσε. Κατάφερε να βγει στον δρόμο και να ζητήσει βοήθεια. Τον μετέφεραν στο νοσοκομείο. Εκεί έμαθε ότι η αδελφή του είχε δολοφονηθεί. Η Kathryn Bright βρέθηκε μισόγυμνη, μαχαιρωμένη  στην κοιλιά και στραγγαλισμένη. Όταν τη μετέφεραν στο νοσοκομείο, ήταν πλέον αργά.ΣυντελεστέςΈρευνα - Κείμενο: Μιμή ΦιλιππίδηΑφήγηση, Sound Design, Ηχοληψία: Δάφνη Γερογιάννη

Will Kohbergers Dark History Hurt Or Help His Case? Could a PhD in criminology really be the ultimate alibi—or just a glaring spotlight on guilt? This episode dives deep into the alleged crimes of Bryan Kohberger, unraveling the tangled threads of his background, from brain fog and visual snow to his fascination with criminology and infamous figures like Dennis Rader. Was his education a tool for understanding crime or an alleged blueprint for committing it? Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer breaks down the implications of digital evidence, a critical misstep involving a knife sheath, and the chilling parallels to notorious killers. As the defense scrambles to counter damning evidence, could sympathy for a man lost in his own mind sway a jury, or will the sheer weight of forensic proof seal his fate?

Was his education a tool for understanding crime or an alleged blueprint for committing it? Retired FBI Special Agent Jennifer Coffindaffer breaks down the implications of digital evidence, a critical misstep involving a knife sheath, and the chilling parallels to notorious killers. As the defense scrambles to counter damning evidence, could sympathy for a man lost in his own mind sway a jury, or will the sheer weight of forensic proof seal his fate?

The term "BTK" stands for "Bind, Torture, Kill," which was the chilling signature used by a notorious American serial killer who terrorized the Wichita, Kansas area from the 1970s to the 1990s. The BTK killer's real name is Dennis Rader.Dennis Rader was a seemingly ordinary family man and church leader. However, beneath this façade, he committed a series of gruesome murders over several decades. His modus operandi involved stalking and then breaking into the homes of his victims, often killing them in a brutal and sadistic manner. Rader taunted law enforcement and the media with letters, poems, and cryptic messages detailing his crimes.Despite his prolonged reign of terror, Rader remained elusive for many years. However, he was eventually apprehended in 2005 when he sent a floppy disk to the police, which contained metadata that could be traced back to him. In a shocking confession, he admitted to the BTK murders and provided chilling details about his crimes during his trial.In 2005, Dennis Rader was sentenced to ten consecutive life terms in prison without the possibility of parole.The case of the BTK killer remains one of the most disturbing and perplexing in the annals of American criminal history, as it revealed the capacity for extreme violence and deception hidden behind a seemingly ordinary suburban life.Now, after more than 18 years after his arrest, authorities are saying that he is the prime suspect in two more murders: Cynthia Kinney who was 16 years old when she was abudcted and murdered and 22 year old Shawna Garber who .BTK's daughter, Keri Rawson has also discussed the new developments and has said that she has been inovled with investigation and has even went to speak with her father at the lock up in hopes to help break the case.

In this episode of "Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski," Dr. John Delatorre explores the complexities of the Richard Allen case, where Allen is accused of a horrific crime without any clear prior indicators of violent behavior. The conversation delves into the lack of a digital footprint or past behaviors that typically signal a predisposition to such acts, which raises questions about Allen's sudden alleged involvement. Dr. Delatorre compares Allen's situation to other notorious criminals like Dennis Rader (BTK) and Bryan Kohberger, suggesting that if Allen were guilty, there should have been warning signs or a history of similar behaviors. The discussion also addresses the challenge prosecutors face in presenting a motive, especially when there seems to be no evident pattern of deviant behavior in Allen's past. The episode emphasizes the importance of evidence, such as internet search histories or other digital traces, that could offer insight into Allen's mindset, which so far appear to be absent. This absence complicates the case and leaves many questions unanswered, with the upcoming trial expected to reveal more details. ### Main Points - Richard Allen is accused of a crime without a clear prior history or digital footprint that would typically indicate a predisposition to such acts. - Dr. Delatorre discusses the improbability of Allen suddenly committing such a crime without prior indicators, comparing him to other criminals like Dennis Rader and Bryan Kohberger. - The conversation raises questions about whether Allen might have a hidden history or if the accusations are unfounded. - The prosecution may struggle to establish a motive, as there seems to be no clear pattern of deviant behavior in Allen's past. - The absence of a digital footprint or any suspicious behavior in Allen's history complicates the case. - The lack of evidence, such as internet search histories, leaves the case shrouded in uncertainty. - The upcoming trial is expected to reveal more details, potentially shedding light on Allen's involvement. ### Hashtags #RichardAllen #JohnDelatorre #BryanKohberger #TrueCrime Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

This absence complicates the case and leaves many questions unanswered, with the upcoming trial expected to reveal more details. ### Main Points - Richard Allen is accused of a crime without a clear prior history or digital footprint that would typically indicate a predisposition to such acts. - Dr. Delatorre discusses the improbability of Allen suddenly committing such a crime without prior indicators, comparing him to other criminals like Dennis Rader and Bryan Kohberger. - The conversation raises questions about whether Allen might have a hidden history or if the accusations are unfounded. - The prosecution may struggle to establish a motive, as there seems to be no clear pattern of deviant behavior in Allen's past. - The absence of a digital footprint or any suspicious behavior in Allen's history complicates the case. - The lack of evidence, such as internet search histories, leaves the case shrouded in uncertainty. - The upcoming trial is expected to reveal more details, potentially shedding light on Allen's involvement. ### Hashtags #RichardAllen #JohnDelatorre #BryanKohberger #TrueCrime Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

IN THIS EPISODE: Is there really such a thing as coincidence? One girl used to think so – but a strange paranormal experience has her now thinking there's no such thing as happenstance. (More Than a Coincidence) *** Is it possible that the real reason for the USA-Iraq war had nothing to do with weapons of mass destruction, and everything to do with the appropriation of other-worldly alien technology? (Saddam Hussein's Stargate) *** Weirdo family member Heather Circle brings us a terrifying story that starts, innocently enough, with her child's missing plastic drinking cup. (A Little Pink Sippy Cup) *** Rebecca Schaeffer was destined to be a star. But before she had the chance to make it in Hollywood, she was murdered by an obsessed fan. (Hollywood's Sweetheart Killed By a Stalker) *** With the internet's recent obsession with Black Eyed Kids encounters and “Shadow People” visitations, you might not notice another phenomena that's quickly becoming part of the paranormal pop-culture consciousness: The Hat Man. Reports of the strange “Hat Man”, a mysterious entity dressed in a long-brimmed hat, continue to pour in from all over the world. Who is the Hat Man? What does he want? Why have so many people around the world been visited by this strange entity? (The Hat Man And Shadow People) *** If you've ever seen the film “The Wicker Man”, you are familiar with the ending of the burning giant made of wood and the human sacrifice therein. But is it possible that this terrifying idea was not an invention of novelists and screenwriters – but was a very real practice at one time? Or even today? (The History Behind The Wicker Man) *** The life that serial killer Dennis Rader lived on the outside, hid his dark secret inside, which he was so desperate to reveal that he began dropping breadcrumbs to the media. (The Paper Trail of BTK) *** A graveyard is typically a quiet place, but Graceland Cemetery in Chicago seems to be a bit too quiet – which might have something to do with its resident ghosts. (The Deathly Silence of Graceland Cemetery) *** In 1888, London was terror-struck by the grotesque murders of Jack the Ripper, who was shortly about to claim his next-victim: 47-year-old prostitute Annie Chapman. Her dissection at the hands of the madman was nothing short of gruesome. (The Dissection of Annie Chapman) *** Annie Chapman likely got a good look at her killer. At the time, scientists thought they could user her corpse's eyeballs to identify the attacker. Is something like that possible? Could the last visual image of someone's life remain burned into the eye even after death?
