Send us a textIn Part 2 of our coverage we will go through the correspondence between the 'Bind, Torture, Kill' murderer, and the Wichita Police. Even after they thought that he was a thing of the past, in 2004, when an article was published in The Wichita Eagle, in which an expert is quoted, saying that; when mentioning the killer to his students, none of them even knew the name. This would evoke a response from this repugnant parasite, and the lines of communication would once again, be opened.This is Part 2 of our coverage of BTK.Support the showIf you're interested in receiving bonus episodes, early release dates, an everything scary sticker and ‘thank you' as well as a shout out on our regular feed!

Send us a textStarting in the 1970's in Wichita Kansas, mysterious, horrific murders started happening in this once, unlocked door community. Authorities did not know what to make of this sudden increase in violent crimes, and did not want to upset the community, before being absolutely certain that the crimes were connected. And, then a call was received at a local newspaper. The caller said that there would be a letter, located inside a book on Mechanical Engineering, at the main branch of the local library, inside would be a letter that would make it crystal clear, the author, would have information that only the killer could possibly have.This is Part 1 of our coverage of BTK.Support the showIf you're interested in receiving bonus episodes, early release dates, an everything scary sticker and ‘thank you' as well as a shout out on our regular feed!

Bryan Kohberger and Dennis Rader (aka BTK) share some similar connections with the main one being Katherine Ramsland who is a well respected criminologist who literally wrote the book on the BTK as well as being Bryan's professor at DeSales University.In this episode, we hear from BTK's daughter Kerri Rawson about her feelings when she first heard about the murders in moscow and where BTK fits in to all of this.(commercial at 7:37)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:BTK killer Dennis Rader shares sympathy for Idaho murders suspect Bryan Kohberger | The IndependentBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Kohberger Big Breakdown – Katherine Ramsland & The Witness List Before the case ever reached a plea deal, there was one name on Bryan Kohberger's defense witness list that raised every eyebrow in true crime: Dr. Katherine Ramsland. Ramsland isn't just any expert. She's a forensic psychologist, bestselling author, and was Kohberger's criminology professor at DeSales University. She also worked directly with the BTK killer, Dennis Rader. Her inclusion signaled that the defense was preparing to lean into Kohberger's background in criminal psychology—maybe even to argue a behavioral or diminished-capacity angle. But here's the twist: Ramsland publicly distanced herself. She said she never expected to be a witness, and never saw violent tendencies in Kohberger. That raises the question—why was her name there in the first place? In this episode, we break down what her inclusion says about the defense's early strategy. Were they gearing up to humanize Kohberger? Paint him as a misunderstood academic? Use his background in criminal behavior as a shield instead of a sword? We explore how the plea deal cut off any courtroom appearance by Ramsland—and why that might have been intentional. This is the psychological warfare of trial strategy: what you signal, what you threaten, and what you never have to prove. Her name may never be called, but it says a lot about the narrative they wanted in play.

“I Still Feel Rex Is Here” — Gilgo Killer's Wife, Asa Ellerup's Grief and Denial, Analyzed by the FBI In Segment 3, we enter the emotional core of the Gilgo Beach case. As Asa Ellerup walks through the remnants of her raided home, she says something haunting: “I still feel Rex is here.” It's not just grief—it's denial, memory, and psychological trauma colliding all at once. Tony Brueski and former FBI behavioral expert Robin Dreeke examine what happens when someone's entire identity is built around a man who may not have ever existed in the way she believed. Dreeke draws from deep behavioral analysis to explain Asa's apparent inability to accept the allegations—even in the face of overwhelming evidence. This segment also introduces another powerful voice: Victoria Heuermann, the daughter of Rex and Asa. Caught between the loving father who built her a dollhouse and the man now accused of being a serial killer, Victoria represents a generational split in how trauma is processed. She openly admits she feels torn—stating she both loves and hates her father. We explore how denial, trauma bonding, and emotional survival play out across generations. Dreeke draws comparisons to Kerri Rawson, daughter of BTK killer Dennis Rader, and discusses how individuals come to terms—or refuse to—with the dark truths inside their families. Through Asa's refusal to ask questions and Victoria's cautious acceptance of reality, we see the full spectrum of psychological responses in the wake of extreme betrayal. This isn't just about the crimes. It's about what happens when your past is rewritten in real time—and you're left to pick up the pieces.

Living With a Serial Killer: FBI Expert Explains How Rex Heuermann Hid 7 Murders From Family Description: How does a man accused of brutally murdering seven women over three decades hide such horrific crimes from the family sleeping under the same roof? In this eye-opening interview, former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke, who led the Bureau's Behavioral Analysis Program, breaks down the sophisticated psychological mechanisms that allow serial killers to compartmentalize their lives. Rex Heuermann, a 61-year-old Manhattan architect, allegedly maintained two completely separate existences - devoted family man in Massapequa Park by day, predator hunting vulnerable women by night. His wife of 27 years, Asa Ellerup, continues to support him, while his daughter Victoria now believes he's "most likely" guilty. This family divide offers a unique window into how deception operates in long-term relationships. Dreeke explains the concept of "truth-default state" - why spouses detect lies at only 50% accuracy, essentially no better than a coin flip. He reveals how environmental factors like suburban normalcy and professional success create cognitive dissonance that prevents family members from recognizing warning signs. The discussion covers specific patterns Heuermann allegedly used: only killing when family was out of town, using multiple burner phones, and maintaining strict operational security that ultimately failed him. Drawing parallels to other cases like BTK killer Dennis Rader, Dreeke provides crucial insights for listeners about red flags in relationships: secretive technology use, unexplained absences, compartmentalized friendships, and subtle personality shifts. He addresses the haunting question every family member asks: "How did I not know?" This episode is particularly valuable for women concerned about relationship safety, offering practical advice on when privacy becomes concerning secrecy and how to strengthen intuition without becoming paranoid. Dreeke's expertise in trust assessment and human behavior provides listeners with tools to protect themselves while understanding the complex trauma faced by families of accused killers.

Living With a Serial Killer: FBI Expert Explains How Rex Heuermann Hid 7 Murders From Family Description: How does a man accused of brutally murdering seven women over three decades hide such horrific crimes from the family sleeping under the same roof? In this eye-opening interview, former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke, who led the Bureau's Behavioral Analysis Program, breaks down the sophisticated psychological mechanisms that allow serial killers to compartmentalize their lives. Rex Heuermann, a 61-year-old Manhattan architect, allegedly maintained two completely separate existences - devoted family man in Massapequa Park by day, predator hunting vulnerable women by night. His wife of 27 years, Asa Ellerup, continues to support him, while his daughter Victoria now believes he's "most likely" guilty. This family divide offers a unique window into how deception operates in long-term relationships. Dreeke explains the concept of "truth-default state" - why spouses detect lies at only 50% accuracy, essentially no better than a coin flip. He reveals how environmental factors like suburban normalcy and professional success create cognitive dissonance that prevents family members from recognizing warning signs. The discussion covers specific patterns Heuermann allegedly used: only killing when family was out of town, using multiple burner phones, and maintaining strict operational security that ultimately failed him. Drawing parallels to other cases like BTK killer Dennis Rader, Dreeke provides crucial insights for listeners about red flags in relationships: secretive technology use, unexplained absences, compartmentalized friendships, and subtle personality shifts. He addresses the haunting question every family member asks: "How did I not know?" This episode is particularly valuable for women concerned about relationship safety, offering practical advice on when privacy becomes concerning secrecy and how to strengthen intuition without becoming paranoid. Dreeke's expertise in trust assessment and human behavior provides listeners with tools to protect themselves while understanding the complex trauma faced by families of accused killers.

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!

He appears in the dark — a shadowy figure with a wide-brimmed hat — and countless people across the world share the same chilling encounter: the Hat Man is watching.

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?

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!

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? And if it all crumbles, will Kohberger take the path of confession or fight to the bitter end like Bundy?

When Vicki Wegerle, the mother of two young children, was strangled in Wichita, Kansas, in 1986, her husband Bill was considered by many to be the prime suspect. For the next 18 years, police lacked evidence to charge Bill, or anyone else with Vicki's murder. Subsequently, a desire for recognition led Dennis Rader, aka the BTK (bind, torture, kill) killer, to fall into a police trap and supply them with incriminating evidence.
