BTK suspect arrested
 

searched and didn't find a thread, so:

i remember seeing this on "America's Most Wanted" a very long time ago. i'm just kinda shocked they managed to catch this guy after such a long time. At least now those families can have some kind of closure.
um...way to go, Kanas police.

Great they finally caught the guy but....

What the heck does BTK stand for?

I hope its the right guy...

They've had this on the news all day but there's very few details. I wanna know - who is this guy? What's he all about? How did they get him?

Being from Wichita I really hope this is the right guy. They had who they thought was the right guy a little over a month ago, but evidently it wasn't, and he was released. This is almost all that's been on the news today.

Just slightly more detailed report for those interested. From here.

Bind......

Im glad they caught this fucker, I remember him scaring me when I used to watch America's Most Wanted. But I would never watch that show by myself it gave me the creeps, I hated the narrator's voice...

This matter does not concern me at all. I can factually say, "I don't fucking care".

They actually ran a special on this last weekend on A & E and we watched it, Id never heard of it before..which is strange as much true crime stuff as I collect. Im glad to see they made an arrest.

If it doesn't concern you, then don't clutter the thread with useless nonsense.

If this is the right guy, I say they shoot him like a dog in the street.

Im kind of interested in this stuff and have read about the case before so I find it really interesting. I hope it is the right guy, but at the same time its kind of sad to see the "mystery" being closed...I know that sounds really disrespectfull to the families of those killed and I dont mean any disrespect..but still..

There's a video report here: http://ksn.com/news/stories/7036051.html
Can't say I think the report is good - talk about tainting a jury pool - but it's interesting nonetheless.

It's a good thing SOMEONE cared enough to want to catch a serial murderer and rapist. :rolleyes:

They shoot dogs in the streets? Since when?

sorry.... :o

I think its important to note that this is still the "suspect" in the crimes. I really hate to think of what might happen to that man if he actually is innocent. His name, face and address have been beamed across the airwaves in practically unlimited languages and timezones...

It's strange, but I hope for his sake that he's guilty. He's dead meat either way.

I hope he is guilty, especially for the relatives and friends of the victims, because they have already been through enough. It is so easy to try and put a face to a killer, but when you actually see it it's like you say, "what the hell, this guy is the one causing all this pain." I know when I saw his picture I said to myself, "well know matter whether he is guilty or not guilty this guys life is pretty much over." It is so hard to understand human nature because everyone is so much different in everyway.

I know exactly what you mean - that's the very thought that crossed my mind while watching the news report I linked to earlier in this thread.

I feel sorry for you since you don't seem to be able to understand figures of speech. Maybe you could get some help for it. Good luck with that.

The funny thing is, according to one report I read, Mr. BTK apparently did shoot someone's dog in the street. Odd.

Oh, I understood it all right, but I was questioning what it literally meant.

This stuff interests me alot, i bet he wishes he didnt come out of hiding though, by the sound of his name he was fairly gruesome.
