The daughter of the infamous BTK killer is publicly reacting after an Oklahoma sheriff working on a BTK crossword puzzle might have figured out another victim of the infamous serial killer.
Dennis Rader, 79, whose self-given moniker stands for "Bind, Torture, Kill" because of the method in which he murdered his victims in the Wichita, Kansas, area, has been tied to at least 10 slayings. He first struck in 1974 and terrorized the community for three decades. He was arrested in 2005.
In an X post, Kerri Rawson said, "I've known of recent developments for a while, what I didn't know was that it was going to be released to media."
She said she was given little warning that it was about to happen.
"And then came the PTSD. Anything unexpected can and will send it flying," Rawson said.
She said she can't legally talk about the new developments in the case.
"What I can talk about is this never ending ride my father has placed us on," Rawson said. "I very much would like to get off it."
Osage County Sheriff Eddie Virden recently worked on a 20-year-old word puzzle Rader mailed to the media.
The puzzle was known to spell out the names of 10 victims.
Virden now says the puzzle also contains the name of Cindy Kinney, a 16-year-old cheerleader who vanished from a laundromat in Pawhuska, Oklahoma, in 1976.
If confirmed, the new victim would expand Rader's hunting radius beyond Kansas.
"It's pretty hard to get around the fact that Cindy Kinney's name is in there, that Osage Laundromat is in there, that Pawhuska is in there," Virden told KFOR-TV.
Dennis Rader of Park City, Kansas pleaded guilty in 2005 to 10 killings dating back to 1974. Rader received 10 life terms and a "hard 40" for the murders he committed over nearly 30 years.
