I think that was actually a call to either the police or 911. Former FBI profiler
mentinoed it while discussing the BTK cases on his radio show tonight.
IIRC, Douglas said that it was great that they were able to get a recording given
the short time of the call...but at the same time the audio quality of the recording
may not be all that helpful.

Fascinating case, isn't it. I grew up in Ponca City...just 100 miles away and
all I ever heard about BTK was just recollecting hearing about the initial
murders of the Otero family...before the conept of the BTK arrived on the scene.
A few months ago, I saw an article by some lawyer (professor?) in Wichita who
said that when he'd talked about the case in his classes (in Wichita!), very few>
of the students had ever heard of the case."

First of all, you may be correct that the phone call was made to police. It has been a long time and I was not the most up-to-date person on this even though I am a Wichita native.

I am not entirely surprised that many college students today in Wichita have not heard of this case. The first murder was 30 years ago and the last known one before this new letter came out was in 1978 or 1979.

I tell you what is a little unnerving. I moved into an apartment in 1980 and 3 years later someone told me that Nancy Fox had lived next door. She was one of the victims.

Wow. I lived on Crestway street in the same hundred block which is only 2 blocks over from where Nancy Fox was killed. Never realized it then. I lived in an apartment house (duplex) with the same floor plan as the one you (and victim Nancy Fox) lived in. Small World.
