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.

So is everyone and their dog in Kansas.
Your point?
Probably multiple things tied him to it.
I could care less whether Dennis Rader professes to be a republican or not..... right now he's an accussed murderer that will get his day in court. But I'm curious as to what at Lexis/Nexis gave you that opinion.... Is it the same Dennis Rader and not some other one?.... Has he ran for office under the republican banner or gave money as a republican, etc. To provide that type info is violating anything from your source.....
The working theory right now is that Rader was probably tortuing those poor stray dogs in his employ..
Eschoir
any news on his motives for these murders?
Control , power trip, narcissistic need to taunt the police, get attention. These people have urges and get satisfaction from things that give normal people nightmares and the heaves.
translation..I don't have a clue why.
It is the same guy. Lexis has a section in it's pulic records area that lists voter registrations. See for yourself if you have a subscription. Its the same guy becuase his address matches the one in the news stories about him.
What does it matter?
John Wayne Gacy was a registered Democrat. He killed 33 people, so I guess Democrats are worse.
Happy now?
Someone who got a dog violation ticket in Park City is selling the ticket on EBay!!!
I LOVE CAPITALISM!!!!
I did not say it mattered. Just putting it out there as part of the story. That's all. Relax.
Bidding now.
You don't even want to know about some of the stuff in our collection. ;)
Thanks..... I know there was some confusion earlier about another person with the same name.....
Just making sure you realize that his party affiliation is not relevent (nor would it be if he were a Democrap).
Welcome to FR!
Not just putting out there. Also putting it in your tagline. And if someone here says they suspect you're a troll, I would say they have good reason.
Putting it in the tagline was an honest mistake. Read the posts about it.
is this because they have children?
Bid is up to $91!
I can just see what the dog has to say:
"Look, you thought I was a S.O.B. for getting the ticket. What's in it for me now?"
"If this guy has been a suspect from long ago why havn't they gotten a dna sample from him a lot earlier."
Because he was not a suspect until recently.
I have been following this case for more than a couple decades. The one thing that BTK was very good at was making sure that the possibilities of who did it were in the thousands.
There was a lot of speculation for a lot of years that he may have even been one of the people investigating the murders, because he always seemed to be one step ahead of the police.
He did a very good job at making sure the fingers did not point to him.
