Submit ReviewApril 4th, 1974, was a cold spring day in Wichita, Kansas, and the day that Dennis Rader, known as BTK, decided to complete his next project as he referred to his murders. His first killings of the Otero Family, which he called Project Little Mex, were less than three months prior but he now had a taste for it.
Believing the chaos of the Otero’s murders was the reason he didn’t feel satisfied, Rader felt that if he could ensure things went according to plan with Kathryn Bright, which he called Project Lights Out, he could satisfy his hellish urges and possibly quit his deadly pastime.
Not only did things not go according to plan, but an unexpected victim also escaped after being shot twice in the head and almost shot with his own .357 Magnum pistol. Besides a lust for killing, there is one other thing Dennis Rader had in abundance, ego.
Six months after Kathryn Bright’s murder, 3 men confessed to her killing and the attempted murder of her brother Kevin. Rader decided that he’d be damned if someone else was going to take credit for his hard work, so he made himself known to the authorities by contacting a local newspaper which began a game of cat and mouse that lasted 30 years.
