TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) - The state reached a $30,000 settlement in a case against two Massachusetts psychologists hired by the state to interview BTK serial killer Dennis Rader before his sentencing, Attorney General Paul Morrison said Thursday.
The 2005 lawsuit accused Robert Mendoza, a forensic neuropsychologist; Tali Walters, a forensic psychologist; and their company, Cambridge Forensic Consultants, of Chestnut Hill, Mass., of profiting from a videotape of an interview session with Rader. Segments of the interview were broadcast by "Dateline NBC."
The settlement ends the lawsuit filed by Morrison's predecessor, Phill Kline, seeking a refund of the $57,314 state contract and damages of more than $75,000. Morrison said the $30,000 will be divided among the families of the 10 victims.
