Welcome to down the rabbit hole, Where we take a deep dive into true crime. (see what i did there)My name is Zoe. I am fairly new to creating podcasts, but i have listened to at least 1,000 hours of my favorite true crime podcasts. Rather than continue to spout random (and often times not asked for) facts about serial killers, i figured i would put my knowledge to good use.
Dennis Lynn Rader Killed 10 people between 1974 and 1991. He was eventually caught and arrested in 2005. This episode will take a deeper look into his earlier years, before the murders, and what would become his first murders of the Otero family.
