Police have uncovered new evidence in the decades old BTK Wichita serial killer case and are questioning a person of interest, according to sources close to the investigation.
Authorities scheduled a news conferece for 11AM Eastern Saturday to make an announcement in the case, and relatives of the killers victims would be briefed beforehand.
Some police sources have said that a 59 year old man was arrested Friday and linked to the case by a DNA sample.
Surveillance activites gave police 'their first big piece' of recent evidence, leading authorities to a vehicle and the person of interest.
Investigators also searched a house in the Wichita suburb of Park City Friday, siezing computer equipment.

The worst police "reality program" since Jack Ruby murdered Oswald.

I understand their motive and those familiar with my posts know I am loathe to start criticizing our officials, but there is an unseemly air to this event.
I honestly thought some information about the man arrested would be provided and the circumstances that led to the arrest.
Hang on...CNN went back and that's what is finally being given.

Looks like all the news channels have bailed.
Sweeeeeeet!

What the ****?
Isn't an arrest a matter of public record?
Who the **** are these clowns to arrest someone and keep the basic facts ... the name of the person arrested ... secret?

We'll get back IF and when they announce the name of BTKThis is SOP these days. There was a little girl murdered in the Pittsburgh area a year (or was it two?) ago and the press conference was nothing but a mutual adulation extravaganza for what seemed like forever. How immature.

Holy sh*t. We start getting information, then it's back to the back slapping.

They fooled us. It was more "great job" talk. CNN dumps out again to provide actual background on the crimes committed.
To: The Westerner
Surely you know that, what with inflation and all, the "15 minutes of fame" has been discounted to 8 minutes, except on Greta, of course. This presser has been on for approx. 50 minutes, not one mention of the perp. It's embarrassing!

DUmmies may be stupid, they're not rapist-killers. They just vote them into office and cheer them on once they're there.

People from Kansas and Wichita in particular have got to be embarrassed by this.........one of the rare times the eyes of the world are on them and they hold a ridiculous event like this.
