Dennis Rader, the Kansas serial killer known as the "BTK killer," told a Wichita newspaper that he's cooperating with Katherine Ramsland, an author writing a book about his crimes.
Rader murdered 10 people in the Wichita area from 1974 to 1991, and his victims ranged in ages from 9 to 62. He gave himself the nickname "BTK," which he said stood for "bind, torture, kill." Rader is serving 10 consecutive life sentences for the slayings, and won't be eligible for parole until 2180.
In a letter to Wichita reporter Roy Wenzl, Rader claims he's cooperating with the book project in order to help his victims' families. It's his first public comment on the crimes since his sentencing nine years ago.
Rader's letter comes less than two weeks after his daughter, Kerri Rawson, sharply criticized author Stephen King for writing the novella "A Good Marriage," which appeared in his 2010 book "Full Dark, No Stars." The novella, based on the BTK murders, has been adapted into a movie, for which King wrote the screenplay.

I have no interest in reading the words of a filthy psychopath.It’s difficult enough to see the Community Organizer-In-Chief on TV every day.
Sad part is....there are people out there that will make sales go through the roof.
I’ve already read what John Douglas had to say on him. I need not know any more.
Remind me, why is he still alive? Also, why can people like this bask in the fame some give to vile, evil murderers?
Ether Kansas does not have the death penalty
He made a deal with prosecutor to save his pathetic life
Third reason.
He's been in “the hole” in prison.
This piece of filth needs to be ‘Dahmerized.’
That’s what we call it in Wisconsin; beaten to death with a metal pole from a weight set by another inmate. Justice! It saves a LOT of Taxpayer Dollars and gets the Perp on the Highway to Hell all that much faster.
It’s a Win/Win!

Diana I know how you all feel. He is scum. I really hope he finds God before someone does a Dahmer on him though. He may even need an exorcism as well.
John Corzine’s twin and nearly as rotten.
I hope he makes it very clear that Burger King was not responsible for the last few murders ...
All his murders were committed before Kansas reinstated the death penalty making him ineligible.
Butchered over a dozen and does a pretty good job on the English language there. Ouch.
“Butchered over a dozen and does a pretty good job on the English language there. Ouch.”
LOLOL
“Dammit Jim, I’m a serial killer not an English professor!”
I reads the thrown-together little true crime account of this way back (guilty, I know) and then he got arrested right after I finished it. I even remember some threads on FR where people were guessing who it might be.
Anyway, what struck me was how full of himself this guy was. Really wanted publicity and attention and that apparently has not changed.
I'll wait until then to buy his book. Fair's fair.
I think the Code Cop did his first murders in the Philippines back when he was in the Air Force.
Been long since I read about this filthy turd but I really had that impression.
If authorities and officials had put his coded letters out to the public he would have been caught a bit earlier.
The article showed a photo of him from 2005 but not a recent photo?
But with good behavior that will get knocked down to 2130.
Bless you for being so charitable.
I suspect, though, that this fiend really wants this book written because it keeps his name out there.
As for Stephen King, he is a disgusting pervert, IMO.
