PARK CITY, Kan. (AP) - The sale of the home of BTK serial killer Dennis Rader is stalled until the courts determine whether the money can be seized to pay for his defense or awards in civil cases.
Michelle Borin-Devuono bought the home for $90,000, about $33,000 above its appraised value, at an auction in July. She said she wanted the proceeds to go to Rader's wife, Paula.
Rader gave himself the name BTK — for his preference to "bind, torture and kill" his victims — and haunted Wichita for decades. He was arrested in February, pleaded guilty in June and was sentenced to multiple life sentences in August for 10 killings from 1974 to 1991. Kansas did not have the death penalty at the time the killings were committed.
