About this episode
For 31 years, the city of Wichita lived in terror of a ghost. Between 1974 and 1991, Dennis Rader – the mild-mannered family man, church leader, and compliance officer – murdered ten people in a series of meticulously planned home invasions that still haunt the American true-crime landscape. He didn’t just kill. He staged elaborate, sadistic “projects”: cutting phone lines, waiting patiently in closets, binding entire families with cords pulled from venetian blinds, torturing them for hours, and strangling them one by one while the others watched in helpless horror. This is the story of how a monster hid in plain sight for three decades. - Sources: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eTYeCoYyxm58DXXdoFbHQyWHlWbcH9iKGIefFcQToW4/edit?tab=t.0 Listen to our new show, "THE CONSPIRACY FILES"!: -Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/5IY9nWD2MYDzlSYP48nRPl -Apple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-conspiracy-files/id1752719844 -Amazon/Audible - https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/ab1ade99-740c-46ae-8028-b2cf41eabf58/the-conspiracy-files -Pandora - https://www.pandora.com/podcast/the-conspiracy-files/PC:1001089101 -iHeart - https://iheart.com/podcast/186907423/ -PocketCast - https://pca.st/dpdyrcca -CastBox - https://castbox.fm/channel/id6193084?country=us - Stay Connected: Join the Murder in America fam in our free Facebook Community for a behind-the-scenes look, more insights and current events in the true crime world: https://www.facebook.com/groups/4365229996855701 If you want even more Murder in America bonus content, including ad-free episodes, come join us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/murderinamerica Instagram: http://instagram.com/murderinamerica/ Facebook:
