Who is watching "The Hunt For The BTK Killer" tonight?
Boy, that actor they cast looks eerily like him!

1. Probably not.
I heard way too much about him on the local news over the years. Same thing w/ John Robinson and Bob Berdella.

2. I grew up near Wichita
I remember being scared of him as a kid. That's one case I thought would never be solved.

4. When they were trying Robinson in MO
his change of venue was for my county. They'd transport him and one of our jailors had to take him over to the courthouse. I saw enough of that *sshole to last me a lifetime(I worked there at the time).

6. Robinson was the internet S&M killer. Dennis Rader was BTK.

7. I know.
I've heard about BTK for years now and Robinson I've seen in person.
That's why I posted that I'd never watch anything about either of them since they are overkill in the area I live in.
BTK went on for over 20 years (Rader was a sneaky one). Robinson just sickens me because he was so close to my home at the time.

3. No, no interest
in watching a show that glorifies a killer. The show may show that he is definitely guilty but it is still a way to put that person in the limelight.

5. I probably won't watch it - I haven't decided
I don't like glorifying killers, either.

8. If I wanted to see dangerous Freepers killing people en masse
I would watch the news!
