BTK stands for “Bind Torture Kill.” What he did to his victims, including children, was pure evil.

‘a good person who did some bad things’ - Dennis Rader/BTK

“Some people did something” - Ilhan Omar

Its a shame those who act out chose their victims so poorly. Many could be heros, not demons.

Thanks for the definition of "BTK".

I had forgotten what those initials stand for.

He is a monster and proof of our worthless judicial system that doesn’t execute his kind. He also looks like John Durham.

Nailed it! “I am always forgiven, no matter what I do.”

I read somewhere recently that even the most hardened criminals see themselves this way, as basically decent people who did something bad.

This is the fruit of humanism.

I lived in Wichita during this time and remember going into an eatery downtown and when you place your order you give them your I trials. I gave my initials ad “BTK”. Caused a chuckle among the patrons when they called out my initials that I gave them. I also knew a gal who was married to Rader’s brother at one time. Her son is still a Rader.
