Police have uncovered new evidence in the decades old BTK Wichita serial killer case and are questioning a person of interest, according to sources close to the investigation.

Authorities scheduled a news conferece for 11AM Eastern Saturday to make an announcement in the case, and relatives of the killers victims would be briefed beforehand.

Some police sources have said that a 59 year old man was arrested Friday and linked to the case by a DNA sample.

Surveillance activites gave police 'their first big piece' of recent evidence, leading authorities to a vehicle and the person of interest.

Investigators also searched a house in the Wichita suburb of Park City Friday, siezing computer equipment.

Because the death penalty was not an option in Kansas until 1994, this guy will not be facing the death penalty for the crimes he committed that we know of at this point.

How do you know that not a single DUmmie is a probable rapist/killer? Are you sure you know each DUmmie's personal life? Come on, give me a break.

What a bunch of self-serving jerks. They call a "press conference" get total media attention and proceed to congratulate each other.

They don't even release the name!

No wonder this guy got away with so many murders so long.

City politicians are the lowest form of American life.

Giuliani excepted.

Fox News says "the heck with it! We are going to programming and if they decide to hold a press conference, we will let you know what they said."

MSNBC dumps out of this non-informative event. A quick check shows Fox back to regular programming. CNN sticking with it. Current speaker promising eventually we'll find out more information. More lauding the "team".

take it easy. the affirmative action crack was too easy I had to take it

It was easy because you are an ignorant jackass.

I'm done here. I turn this place over to you and your kind.
