Podcasts about Rader

Katherine Ramsland was one of Bryan Kohberger's professors at DeSales University in Pennsylvania, where he studied psychology and later earned a master's degree in criminal justice before beginning his doctoral program at Washington State University. Ramsland was particularly notable because her academic specialty was forensic psychology and extreme offenders; she had written extensively about serial killers and had worked directly with Dennis Rader, the BTK killer, on a book about his crimes and psychology. Kohberger took multiple courses with Ramsland, including classes dealing with forensic psychology, death investigations and antisocial or violent behavior. She later described him as an engaged, intense and curious student who appeared genuinely interested in research and a career in criminology, and said that she had not observed obvious warning signs suggesting that he was capable of committing the murders for which he was later convicted.Their relationship drew enormous attention after Kohberger's arrest because of the disturbing overlap between the subjects he had studied and the crimes he was accused of committing. Ramsland's work with BTK fueled speculation that Kohberger might somehow have communicated with Rader through her, but Rader later denied having any contact with Kohberger, and no evidence established such a connection. Ramsland initially declined to discuss her former student publicly while the criminal case was pending, but after Kohberger pleaded guilty in 2025 she said his arrest had initially shocked her because the student she remembered had not presented himself as violent or threatening. She also acknowledged wrestling with the uncomfortable question of whether anything in the material she taught could have influenced him, while emphasizing that studying violent offenders is a legitimate part of forensic education and does not make instructors responsible for what a student later does. Their actual documented relationship was therefore that of professor and student, but Ramsland's expertise in serial murder and Kohberger's intense academic interest in criminal behavior made that relationship one of the more unsettling coincidences surrounding his background.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Sie sind die wahrscheinlich erfolgreichsten Serial-Entrepreneurs der deutschen Gastro-Geschichte: Klaus Rader und Friedemann Findeis. Angefangen haben sie bei McDonald's, wo Rader als Franchise-Nehmer ein Millionen-Business aufgebaut hatte. Doch statt die Betriebe bis zum Ruhestand zu optimieren, starteten die beiden neu, übernahmen ein italienisches Restaurant – und bauten daraus L'Osteria. Wie aus einem kleinen Laden in Nürnberg eine Gastro-Kette mit 400-Millionen-Euro-Bewertung wurde, wie sie nebenbei noch das Italo-Food-Projekt Vapiano mitgegründet haben und wieso das eine Konzept bis heute erfolgreich ist, das andere aber krachend scheiterte, verraten die beiden in dieser Folge. Wir haben mit ihnen über die ganze Reise gesprochen, von den Anfängen bis heute: Warum wächst L'Osteria, obwohl so viele Gastro-Betriebe gerade leiden? Wie stehen die beiden zu Robotern und Fertigprodukten? Und natürlich: Würde L'Osteria auch in Italien funktionieren? Die Antworten gibt es im OMR Podcast.

During sessions documented in a recent documentary, Rex Heuermann described a structured four-day cycle: preparation, the killing and its aftermath, cleanup, and a buffer day. He said he timed his disposals, reducing the duration from over two minutes on his first to under forty seconds on his last — a self-competition in efficiency. He also stated he cannot connect the person who committed those acts to the person he considers himself to be. This look back, with psychotherapist Shavaun Scott, examines what those disclosures reveal about the psychological architecture of a convicted serial killer.Scott analyzes the compartmentalization Heuermann describes — the claimed inability to merge his two selves — and whether it represents genuine dissociation or a performed narrative designed to maintain control even in confession. She examines the reported onset of violent ideation in adolescence, the escalation into action, and what FBI profiler John Douglas meant when he compared Heuermann to BTK and noted that Heuermann possessed an operational advantage Rader lacked. The question of whether Heuermann is still shaping the narrative from behind bars is central to Scott's analysis.The segment also addresses Victoria Heuermann — the daughter who sat across from her father in custody, heard his admission, forgave him immediately, and asked whether he ever thought about her during the killings. His answer — that the two worlds never crossed — is itself a clinical data point Scott examines. Victoria's processing of the disclosure, including reported depression and self-worth collapse, raises questions about the psychological inheritance of a serial offender's compartmentalization. Heuermann pleaded guilty to seven murders and admitted to an eighth. We revisit where the matter stood at the time of our reporting.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Romans 11:13-18

In this podcast, Greg Voisen sits down with Sage Rader and Christina Richter for a conversation that quietly dismantles everything you thought you knew about transformation. What happens when you treat a person not as a problem to fix, but as a world-class artist to produce? Sage Rader - recording artist, classical violinist, and creator of Neuro Acrobatics - reveals how he composes bespoke music from a client's own words, breath, and metaphors, then hands it back as a kind of self-directed self-hypnosis people simply can't defend against, because the thoughts are entirely their own. Christina Richter, an executive and communication coach with 25+ years alongside Fortune 500 leaders, shares what actually shifted inside her: the calm, the clarity, the strange new confidence that bled into every relationship in her life. Together they unpack why "the way you breathe is the way you do everything else," how sound can map consciousness in the body, and why even the most arms-crossed skeptic ends up converted. And in an age where AI can hand you knowledge in an instant, Sage reveals what becomes truly rare - cognitive overmatch: discernment, presence, and the ability to take one breath before you respond. This is an invitation to stop carrying suffering you were never required to hold.

In a typewritten question left for the Wichita Police Department in January of 2005, Dennis Rader asked the cops, in writing, whether a floppy disk could be traced back to him. The question was inside an empty cereal box he had left for them in the bed of a pickup truck at a Home Depot parking lot. He signed it with his self-given initials. He asked them to be honest.The Wichita Police Department answered through a small classified ad in the Wichita Eagle. They told him no. A floppy disk could not be traced.That was not true.In the fifth and final chapter of True Crime Today's BTK investigation, host Tony Brueski walks through the trap Lieutenant Ken Landwehr had been building since March of 2004. The thirteen-year silence Rader broke when he could no longer tolerate being ignored. The eleven separate communications that followed. The eleven months of polite, formal responses through classified ads that fed Rader's hunger for attention while the task force quietly built its case.The episode covers the February 16, 2005, arrival of a purple Memorex floppy disk at KSAS-TV in Wichita. The Microsoft Word file metadata that named Christ Lutheran Church in Park City and a user account named Dennis. The phone call from Wichita Police to Pastor Michael Clark that ended the case in a single conversation. The DNA confirmation from Rader's daughter Kerri Rawson's medical records, obtained under warrant without her knowledge or consent at the time. The February 25, 2005, arrest. The thirty-plus-hour confession.Dennis Rader was not caught by sketches, voice recordings, or FBI profiles.

On January 8, 2005, the Wichita Police Department received a typewritten question from the BTK Killer. Dennis Rader had left it inside an empty cereal box in the bed of a pickup truck at a Home Depot parking lot. He wanted the police to tell him, in writing, whether a floppy disk could be traced back to his computer. He asked them to be honest.They lied.In the fifth and final chapter of host Tony Brueski's Hidden Killers BTK investigation, the trap Lieutenant Ken Landwehr built over the eleven months of Rader's 2004 communications is walked through in detail. The thirteen-year silence Rader broke in March of 2004 when he could no longer stand being ignored. The eleven communications that followed. The Wegerle driver's license that freed Bill Wegerle by accident. The strategic decision by Landwehr to write back, politely, formally, through classified ads, instead of refusing to engage. The eleven months of feeding Dennis Rader's hunger for attention while quietly building a case.The episode covers the classified ad that ended the case: "Rex, it will be OK." The lie Rader believed. The purple Memorex floppy disk mailed to KSAS-TV on February 16, 2005. The Microsoft Word file titled Test A.RTF whose metadata named Christ Lutheran Church and a user account named Dennis. The phone call to Pastor Michael Clark. The DNA confirmation. The arrest. The confession. The sentencing speech where Dennis Rader read the names of his confirmed victims like a roll call he was finally getting to deliver.

In August of 2023, the Osage County Sheriff's Office in Oklahoma released a journal entry written in Dennis Rader's own handwriting. The entry described a fantasy of taking a young woman from a laundromat. Rader had a title for it. He had written it on the page. "Bad Wash Day."The reason that journal entry was released matters. On June 23, 1976, a sixteen-year-old Pawhuska, Oklahoma, cheerleader named Cynthia Dawn Kinney finished her shift at her aunt and uncle's laundromat. She was reportedly last seen getting into a car with two women she did not appear to know. She has never been seen alive since. Her body has never been found. Almost half a century later, her family is still waiting.In the fourth chapter of True Crime Today's five-part BTK investigation, host Tony Brueski walks through the thirteen years between Rader's last confirmed Kansas killing in 1991 and his March 2004 resurfacing, and the question that has been driving cold-case investigators in multiple states since 2023. Did Dennis Rader actually stop, or did the system miss him?The episode covers Sheriff Eddie Virden's 2023 task force announcement. The August 2023 excavation of a property near Rader's former Park City home. Dr. Katherine Ramsland's "powering down" framework from a decade of correspondence. The March 2024 ruling out of the Shawna Beth Garber case as Rader's. The continuing disagreement between the Osage County Sheriff's Office, which still names Rader a prime suspect in the Kinney case, and the Osage County District Attorney, who has publicly said the evidence does not support charges.Dennis Rader is eighty-one.

In 2023, an Oklahoma sheriff named Eddie Virden announced a multi-state task force to investigate cold cases potentially connected to Dennis Rader during the years Rader was officially considered inactive. In August of that year, deputies excavated a property near Rader's former Park City, Kansas, home using cadaver dogs and ground-penetrating radar. In March of 2024, Missouri authorities officially ruled out one case, Shawna Beth Garber, and attributed it to a different man, Talfey Reeves, who had died in 2021.Twenty years after his arrest, the BTK case is still being worked.In the fourth chapter of host Tony Brueski's five-part Hidden Killers investigation, the thirteen-year period between Rader's last confirmed killing and his 2004 resurfacing gets walked through honestly. The standard story is that he stopped. Got it under control. Aged out. The actual answer is more complicated, and several investigative offices around the country still believe parts of his record are incomplete.The episode covers what Dr. Katherine Ramsland concluded about Rader's "powering down" cycles after more than a decade of correspondence with him. It covers the Cynthia Dawn Kinney disappearance from Pawhuska, Oklahoma, in June of 1976, and the 2023 release of a Rader journal entry titled "Bad Wash Day" describing a fantasy of taking a young woman from a laundromat. It covers the divergence between the Osage County Sheriff's Office, which still considers Rader a prime suspect in the Kinney case, and the Osage County District Attorney's office, which has publicly stated the evidence does not support charges.This is the fourth uncomfortable truth of the series. The BTK case is closed for the ten murders in Kansas.

Romans 9:1-29

Kevin Bright was nineteen years old when Dennis Rader shot him twice and left him for dead in his sister Kathryn's house in Wichita on April 4, 1974. Kevin survived. His sister did not. Before Kevin went into surgery, with one of Rader's bullets still inside his head, he gave Wichita detectives a description of the man who had attacked them.A police sketch artist drew the face. On April 23, 1974, that drawing ran on the front page of the Wichita Eagle. Nineteen days after the attack. Dennis Rader was free in Park City, Kansas. He would remain free for the next thirty-one years.In his own 2005 confession, Rader said the sketch was, in his words, uncomfortably close to him. He said no one ever came for him.In the second chapter of True Crime Today's five-part BTK investigation, host Tony Brueski walks through every piece of Dennis Rader that the Wichita Police Department had in evidence rooms during the years he was still operating. A sketch in 1974. A confession letter inside a library book in 1974. A voice tape in 1977. A poem in a sealed package in 1979. A neighbor of his killed in 1985 and one of his own residents killed in his own jurisdiction in 1991.The chase did not close because Wichita Police were incompetent. The chase did not close because Dennis Rader was a mastermind either. The chase did not close because the system, in a small city in the 1970s and 80s, did not yet know how to look at its own data. And the people paying the price for that gap, including a grieving husband suspected of his wife's murder for eighteen years, did not deserve to carry the cost.END LINKSJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Bill Wegerle was a suspect in his own wife's murder for eighteen years. From the day Vicki Wegerle was killed in their Wichita home in September of 1986 until the day in March of 2004 when the actual killer mailed her stolen driver's license to a local newspaper, Bill Wegerle lived under suspicion of a crime he did not commit. His two children grew up under that shadow.The man who killed Vicki Wegerle was Dennis Rader. The same Dennis Rader who, twelve years earlier, had written letters to the same Wichita newspaper claiming responsibility for the Otero family killings under the name BTK. The same Dennis Rader whose voice was on a 911 tape that had been played on every Wichita TV and radio station. The same Dennis Rader whose 1974 police sketch had run on the front page of the Wichita Eagle.In the second chapter of host Tony Brueski's five-part Hidden Killers investigation, the file Wichita Police had been quietly building since 1974 gets laid out in order. The Bright family attack. The Otero letter. The Nancy Fox 911 recording. The Anna Williams sealed package. The Marine Hedge case, where Rader killed his own next-door neighbor and went home to bed. The Vicki Wegerle case that did not break open because the BTK task force had been folded into a smaller operation by the time it happened.This is the second uncomfortable truth of the series. Dennis Rader was not too clever for Wichita Police. The Wichita Police had pieces of him for three decades. The pieces did not get put together. The cost was carried by families who did not deserve to carry it.END LINKSJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Dennis Rader was the BTK Killer. He was also the man who named himself the BTK Killer. He typed the name onto an envelope and mailed it to the Wichita Eagle in October of 1974, and the city has been calling him by that name ever since.In the first chapter of a new five-part investigation, Hidden Killers host Tony Brueski takes apart the mythology Dennis Rader built around his own crimes. Factor X. The Minotaur. The BTK brand. None of it came from a profiler. None of it came from a detective. All of it came from a man at his own kitchen typewriter in Park City, Kansas, while his wife slept down the hall.For nearly fifty years, the BTK story has been told in his words and his frame. Documentaries quote his letters. Books quote his letters. Podcasts quote his letters. The version of him in the cultural imagination is the version he composed about himself.The actual file shows something different. A criminal justice student at Wichita State who'd taken classes on offender profiling. An alarm installer who had legal access to hundreds of Wichita homes. A husband and a father who chose, at thirty-two, to begin writing himself a role he could spend the rest of his life playing.This episode walks through what Rader wrote, when he wrote it, what he borrowed from, and the press response that made the legend official. The series will follow with the chase that didn't close, the costumes that made him invisible, the thirteen-year silence between his confirmed murders, and the catch that ended his run in 2005.This is the first uncomfortable truth. Dennis Rader was not a force of evil. He was a vain man with a marketing plan and a typewriter that worked.END LINKSJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Sex år har gått sedan Sovjetunionens fall, men staten vill fortfarande ge sken av att de har total kontroll. Rader av soldater avskärmar sektionerna av människor och precis i anslutning till scenen ligger presidentpalatset.Röken ligger tät och det finns en minst sagt spänd förväntan i luften när The Prodigy kliver på scenen. Det är ovanligt att band från väst kommer hit och spelar. – From the U.K! It's The Prodigy!Ånga pyser ut från låtskrivaren Liam Howletts näsborrar när han skruvar på sina synthar. Det blå ljuset lyser upp hans kläder. Från sidan hoppar en punkig silhuett in på scenen. Han har stirrig blick och bär en jeansjacka med Union Jack-flaggan på ryggen.Lamporna skiftar om till rött och totalt kaos utbryter i publiken.På bara några år har den elektroniska rockgruppen The Prodigy gått från att spela på intima, svettiga raves i industrilokaler, till världens största arenor. De beskrivs som ett av världens bästa liveband och anses ha uppfunnit en helt unik mix av dansmusik, punk och rock. Listettor och miljontals sålda skivor har blandats med kontroverser där bandet har anklagats för att ha nazistsympatier, uppmuntra kvinnomisshandel och till och med mordbrand. Alltid omdiskuterade, alltid mot strömmen.Medverkande: Martin James, Leah Riches och Jason Shorthouse.Programmet gjordes av Robin Jonsson våren 2026Producent Siri HillExekutiv producent Lars TruedssonSlutmix Fredrik NilssonP3 Musikdokumentär produceras av Tredje Statsmakten MediaLjudklippen i programmet kommer från MTV (1997, 1994), BBC (1991, 1993, 1994) och RTE News (2019) samt Youtubekontona Mynnameiswhatever (2009), Ridocz (2017) och Bungleboss (2006).
