"There will be a lot of second-guessing in the months ahead about the BTK investigation. But what we know so far is a cautionary note to amateur sleuths and professional "profilers" everywhere.

If Dennis Rader is guilty, BTK wasn't who we thought he was.

This trusted family man, church and Scout leader doesn't fit much of what we thought we knew about the serial killer.

He was hiding in plain sight.

And that's relevant to a question on many people's minds: Could he have been arrested sooner?

Probably not. We should be thankful that he was arrested at all, considering how notoriously difficult it can be for police to catch serial killers, especially ones as careful and crafty as BTK.

The emerging details about Mr. Rader do underscore that those celebrated and oft-quoted "profilers" should be taken with a heavy dose of salt..."- Wichita Eagle, excerpt

Your argument is so silly that I am just going to let it go. Because some murdering pervert was "hiding" in plain sight has absolutely nothing to do with some poor, ignorant peasant who hopped the border for the sole purpose of building a better life, and conducted himself as an exemplary way upon arrival.
