WICHITA, Kan. - Police said Saturday they have arrested a man they believe is the notorious BTK serial killer who terrorized Wichita throughout the 1970s and then resurfaced about a year ago after 25 years of silence. They also added two more victims to the roster of BTK victims, linking two new murders to the case.
The bottom line: BTK is arrested," Wichita Police Chief Norman Williams said at a news conference in Wichita with some of the victims' family members.
BTK investigator Lt. Ken Landwehr identified the suspect as Dennis Rader, a 59-year-old city worker in nearby Park City, who was arrested Friday at his suburban home.
Rader served on both the Sedgwick County Board of Zoning Appeals and the Animal Control Advisory Board, according to the county's official Web site.
More slayings attributed to
BTK
The BTK killer — a self-coined nickname that stands for
"Bind, Torture, Kill" — had been linked to eight killings committed between 1974
and 1986. Police said Saturday they have attributed two more slayings to BTK,
from 1985 and 1991, bringing the total number to ten.
