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.

Walmart needs to contact the camera company that Home Depot uses. Maybe then their surveillance cameras will be worth more that a hoot & a holler.
"KAKE just released that one of their communications reference a package at Home Depot (east) and that surveillance cameras from the store were used do track this guy down."..Kansas.com board
They may have asked the daughter to volunteer her DNA after they got the car license tag.
Yeah, thank you! Do you know how to find the cached copy of Rader's website? http://www.freewebs.com/thebtksite/
I tried and tried already.
I used to live in Panama City, I wonder if they have any unsolved murders there
that fit BTK's method of madness?
If you find an answer to this question, could you ping me? It really is discouraging.

I believe they now have possibly tied him to a 1991 murder, but your point stands about the passage of time. Then last March he started his letter writing again.
The case is positively chilling now that we know his bio and his standing in the community.
thread being passed on to some Wichita reporters
You know, I'm trying to remember the press conference out here when they arrested the green river killer (many deaths and no arrest for 20+ years). I think it was a weekday, so I was at work and only heard the replay highlights of the conference, and that likely alters my perception, but I don't remember it being quite such a production.
We used to have a mayor that spoke great english but did'nt do much else! IMHO. I have had personal converstions with him on the phone. Never had any problem understanding him and he did great answering my concerns.
Fox saying daughter went to police two weeks ago with suspicions...
You have any more info about this?
I don't think I understand your post. Thanks.
The daughter went to LE with suspicions two weeks ago??!!

Google has pulled the site, but it seems to have belonged to the boyfriend of his daughter Kerri.

I have no idea if this family is the same at all..there is no mention of any of this in his bio so far.. A different Rader, I think.
