- This fall, I sat down with Kerri Rawson, the daughter of serial killer Dennis Rader, to chat about what life's been like as she's helped an Oklahoma sheriff investigate her dad. There was a lot leading up to the interview, though, and I walk you through that and an extended cut of the interview that we shared on KAKE+.
Stories I put together this year

Thanks for the update. Ive been wondering how Kerri is doing. She’s a wonderful woman .
Such a good person Kerri is...I want to get her book....nothing her dad did has anything to do with her or her family..
He did that not them.. I can't understand why people mouth off about them...her and her family had no knowledge of the horrible stuff he was doing..
Her book was a really good read I often pick it up and read again
I can't believe that he (BTK) is allowed to autograph crime scene photos from his crimes. In custody no less. That's just super-bad, shame on KDOC. I will not be at all surprised if OK finds and proves more BTK crimes of other victims from long ago. That would be so BTK like.
Love her. She is a woman who is sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ and is on a journey of healing. I look forward to reading her book, as well as any second one.
May Christ Jesus be with you all with emotive, tender, repentant hearts.
💌🙏🕊️
Trump doesn’t believe in Jesus Christ.
That painting in the background looks creepy! Kerri Is such a brave beautiful woman, i hate ignorant minions are still trolling her accusing her is nonexistent bs. Most families of serial killers would go under the radar and never do what she's doing because if the ignorance of some. Yet this woman is a fighter for the voiceless against her father.
Oh yeah. It was a location we weren't planning for initially. We just went with what we could. We were at a law enforcement training center, so there were things like these targets in the background.
It's amazing that a monster could have such an amazing person for a daughter. My close family friends' babysitter was one of his victims. My mother attended the same high school that he did (not at the same time) and I was a baby and toddler during his killing sprees in Wichita from '84-'87 before moving out of the state. So scary to know he was a Boy Scout leader, president of church council, etc. you just NEVER can trust anyone, it's sad....
I just want to give her a hug.
Very courageous
She unfortunately has many traits of her father. She desperately seeks importance i.e the book. The need to be involved. Where anyone else would just refere to the media as media she refers to them as "Her media partners" i am not trying to judge her ive seen many of her interviews but this one blew my mind on the comparable characteristics to her father.
She does things that are a bit off for sure…….but I’m not sure we can truly imagine what that knock on her door feb 25, 2005 did to her. Flipped her world in a snap and it just mounted and mounted and mounted and things she didn’t even know would be traumatic just kept happening to her. People deal with trauma differently and I feel horrible for her after reading her book. Which was a great read 👌🏽 I do see what you’re saying but I honestly feel like she’s been dealt a tough hand and she’s just a mental mess and she deals the best she can. 🤷🏻♂️
100 percent agree. Narcissistic big time because every other word out of her mouth was either me, I or my. If she truly wanted to make a difference then just shut up and go away. Bet she gets paid for every interview she does as well. She knows exactly what she’s doing!
Criminals have more rights than law abiding citizens which is crazy. The fact anyone wants any possessions of serial killers is insane and that criminals make money off of it in prison
Kerri Rocks
Katherine Ramsland has had a lot to do with Dennis Radar her book on him blew my mind and so did the one John Douglas wrote as but she still sees Radar to this day . I was surprised when I heard Ramsland say on a panel on STS that she doesn’t believe in the DP , I think she has some sympathy and fascination for Radar and his so called X factor , imo there is nothing that she can learn from researching and interacting with him that can prevent these psychopaths from being born because I believe they come out of the womb not wired right supposedly there was nothing in his childhood that made him the way he is , plus he is a liar and imo has kept a lot to himself that he will never tell he just likes the game around people trying to find out like he still has something someone wants from him plus he gets the attention , he was and is a monster he even growled and behaved like one in front of his victims who he knew would never live to tell the tale . I think it should be mandatory DP for these serials k***lers . The relatives of his victims must be traumatised all over again when they find out he is selling memorabilia and or signing pics of their relatives crime scenes I don’t believe the victims have justice while he is still breathing the same air as them . Just my opinion .
I feel sorry for Kerri she seems to be trying to make up for what her father did it’s like trying to nail jelly to a tree I cringe every time she says dad or father in reference to Radar he does not deserve that title imo .
I got to meet her at Crime Con in Austin
Dont mind the trolls , great video 👍
This woman has such a strong mind.❤
she needs to ask her dad to write down every attempted kidnapping and everything he remembers. he will tell his kid before he dies
I often wonder what he did when he was in the service over seas
Kerri, so glad to find you are back out here. You are on my radar as a very special person. So intelligent, so dedicated and determined to keep ahead of the upsets, next surprises coming up! Good you are taking time off breaks as needed. 😊
Kerri has projects
Kerri is awesome! Big hugs ❤
you're definitely making the best of it and it appears that you got the best of your parents because you seem to be a very well-rounded person with an awesome personality and I think you're awesome! You can't help what your father did and you've actually turned it around and made the best of it good for you!
Kerry, you are a good person. Prayers for you, your mom and brother.
I couldn't imagine being related to BTK, scary
Kerri doesn't seem like she's doing ok. I know personally about hair loss under stress. Her hair has gotten thinner, she's gained weight, and she says "like", every other word. This last thing is particularly disturbing, because it's new behavior, and in someone who's the age she is to start doing that, it's usually indicative of something else going on. I read her book in one night, and felt so much empathy towards what she went through because of her dad. But also, her home life was so much like mine growing up. My Dad was a moody, volatile guy like hers. So I could relate. But I hate to see her in this condition.
Great interview. Thanks for sharing.
BONUS DRINKING GAME
Take a shot everytime Kerri says "...like..."
You will see the devil....
I feel bad saying this, but it seems she's just like her dad. Wanting all the attention and notoriety. Capitalizing as much as she can.
Like, oh my god, like, I don't think, like, I'm going to last, like, watching this, like, like, no, like, I can't, like.
Very mixed feelings about this. If my dad had been such a man, i wouldn't be talking about it..me personally , i would want to just live my life and forget about such a disgusting man...what he did is what he truly was..the family man was the act. If the Jesus stuff helps her, thats good for her..but that stuff bores me personally.
Me too.
But she’s helping with active investigations. I think that says a lot about her.
I believe Kerri Rawson knew BTK her father had contact with Kohberger.
Isn't it so fun to troll and throw stones and judge her? Someone who was a Daddys girl and was very close to her father. And one day she learns that her entire life and the way she saw her father and herself was a lie. And had media hounding her from 2005 on. Always referring to her as btks daughter, never Kerri. You have no concept of what that is like. So keep your opinions to yourself. Oh and for the person who said she has traits like her father. You have never seen footage of him or read stuff about people actually know or met him. She is nothing like him.
Thank you.
AMEN, Kerri is the bravest woman I have ever seen.
Something feels off.
She isn’t coming across well to me in this interview…….
Thats because shes not well 🤷♂️ being told you whole life is a lie fucks you up
Right. All is not well with her, and I hate to see it.
💯💯💯finally someone said it
Who else is falling asleep watching this?
Sorry if it doesn’t suit you. Some people wanted to see this, and I’m so happy to share the interview.
I fall asleep to things like this all the time but it helps me sleep 😂 I know its weird but I can't sleep in silence
@@annettelawless from my view. Take it as a compliment. I have been watching or reading True Crime for 2 decades. I press replay, and off we go again. I get to see mostly everything. Just takes a longer time. I say - keep up your good work, girl!!
@@xxCHEZxx I can't either. I had to share a hotel room with a good friend for a week. She is light and sound off - sleeper. Nothing. I ofc had my earphones and turned the light down on my computer. Nahh. I lay under the blanket drooling on my laptop for a week. Still good friends tho. 😁😁
Hey new sub
I can’t relate but people saying they fell asleep to your content is usually not a diss in the true crime community (or honestly kinda long form content in general these days)
True crime peeps on CZcams are falling asleep by accident in bed cuddled up choosing to pick your content
It’s a way of saying the audio & style is surprisingly soothing & not jarring to the ears so they accidentally wake up like 😮 I only remember the first 10mins & they finish it when they wake up
The "gag" / kinda meme is that it’s obviously a heavy topic or murder case & wtf how odd that I can fall asleep to such serious content
It’s very online true crime enthusiast CZcams comment behaviour more for a wink & a nod to other users who like have this (what most normies would consider) weird content preference
Most of us have anxiety lol so going to sleep or just chilling at in silence when living alone isn’t really possible. The online only true crime creators just want & like a comment to be left regardless for engagement / algorithm purposes & these types of comments are aimed at others found in the comment section rather than directly at you, the creator
Just so you know, hope your channel thrives though ❤
Awful 🤔🙄😴
I like want to like watch this but like there are like way too many likes….like so like annoying!
I hope Kerri watches this and realises how many time she says like I’ve heard her do this on other interviews she’s not a teenager and needs to have some guidance around public speaking bcos it really does matter .
You love the attention as much as your dad does. Go away!! Go away!! Go away!!
Maybe it helps her pain, she's had a traumatic few years since her father was arrested
