Abstract
Dennis Lynn Rader was born to Dorothea Mae and William Elvin Rader on March 9, 1945. Otero was found murdered in his home alongside three of his family members. Joseph Otero 's wife was beaten, choked and bound before Rader killed her. Rader 's next "BTK" victim was a 21-year-old named Kathryn Bright. Similarly to Rader 's first set of victims, she had been bound with a cord, somewhat clothed and had been choked and stabbed numerous times. Rader 's last two victims were 28-year-old Vicki Wegerle, and 62 year old Dolores Davis. Rader 's killing spree had come to a halt shortly after his last two victims, Vicki Wegerle, and Dolores Davis.

The working authorities kept a line of communication open with the BTK Killer also known as Rader, with determination to gain his trust and assurance. In summary, there was strong evidence working against Rader, placing him as a top suspect in the BTK killings. In February of 2005, Rader was incarcerated in Park City, Kansas, and charged of the BTK killings.
