For thirty years, Dennis Rader attended church, issued code violations, and led Cub Scout meetings — while secretly holding onto souvenirs from the ten murders he had committed across Wichita between 1974 and 1991. He had named himself BTK: Bind, Torture, Kill. He had written taunting letters to police and newspapers. And then, for thirteen years, he went silent.

What broke that silence was ego. A book about the BTK case was being written without him. Rader couldn't tolerate someone else narrating his crimes. He re-emerged in 2004 with a new wave of communications — cereal boxes left around the city, packages, cards, letters — and eventually sent investigators a floppy disk after asking, through a newspaper ad, whether such a disk could be traced. Police said no. That was a lie. The metadata on the disk led directly to Christ Lutheran Church and to Dennis Rader.

He was arrested in February 2005. At sentencing, the judge handed down ten consecutive life terms — 175 years. Rader stood in court and described each murder in clinical, self-satisfied detail, as if the courtroom were finally the audience he'd always wanted.

This episode covers the full arc of Rader's capture and sentencing: the floppy disk question, detective Ken Landwehr's decades-long pursuit, the collapse of Rader's carefully constructed double life, and his daughter Kerri's decision to write publicly about the father she thought she knew. The horror of BTK was never only the violence. It was how completely ordinary he appeared to everyone around him — until he wasn't.
