you're confusing him with the BK Big Fish sandwich...

assuming he's transported a dead or live body across state lines somewhere during his crime sprees, wouldn't that make it a federal case and thereby subject to the death penalty irregardless of KS not having the big DP?

I hope so. This freak should be bound and lit on fire.
see how he likes it.

If in fact he did transport them across a state line it could very well become a Fed case. Depending on the strength of the evidence (IIRC there is a DNA match) I would hope they would push for the needle.

First of all, the only one of the deaths where the victim was taken anywhere was Mrs. Hedge and there is no evidence that BTK took her accross any state lines.

Second, while there was no DP when any of these crimes occurred, there is a DP in Kansas now. It was passed into Law in 1994, but it was not retroactive.

You're thinking of the BK Broiler.
