Keep in mind, Rader’s personal daughter, Kerri Rawson, first contemplated this chance in an interview with NewsNation final week. In a sequence of messages with the information outlet, she defined her concern about Kohberger learning criminology below DeSales College professor and serial killer skilled Dr. Katherine Ramsland, because the professor is well-known in circles learning BTK and his crimes.
On the time, Rawson stated:
“It’s quite common for legal justice college students and on the whole the true crime group or followers to contact my father through mail and sometimes communicate on the telephone. Understanding how personally linked Ramsland is to my father, I’d not be shocked if on the very least Kohberger tried to jot down to him.”
And BTK’s daughter added extra hypothesis about whether or not her disgraced father may have talked with Kohberger earlier than the younger man allegedly dedicated these horrific killings close to the U of I campus:
“If he has contacted my father there could be letters in his home and in my father’s jail cell. It’s laborious to be the child of this man and stay with this. After which see someone else go do that and marvel did your dad affect this? Did my dad speak to him?”
However now, we all know that isn’t the case. And apparently, the reply to this comes from Rader himself.
Over the weekend, TMZ reported that they reached out to Rader about Kohberger. From his jail cell in Kansas, the convicted BTK killer shut down any thought of a connection to Kohberger. He wrote an e-mail to the outlet noting their lack of communication:
“No on Kohberger throughout.”
Appears fairly simple.

Nonetheless, that doesn’t imply there isn’t an affect. Since Kohberger labored below Ramsland in his criminology research, and since Ramsland is aware of BTK’s case so effectively, it’s nonetheless potential there was some kind of curiosity there. Rader acknowledged that himself, telling the outlet:
“I had thought some one might have research [sic] me.”
The information outlet additionally studies Rader “gave props” to the Idaho investigators for catching a suspect of their case.
Creepy…
As for Rader and his daughter, Rawson, the convicted serial killer defined he doesn’t talk along with his household any longer whereas serving his jail sentence. He wrote to the information outlet:
“My household don’t [sic] talk with me in any respect. I really like all of them very a lot and [would] be blissful if one did.”
In order that’s that for Rader, then. In fact, he continues to serve time in jail for 10 murders that occurred within the Wichita, Kansas space between 1974 and 1991. He initially confessed to these killings again in 2005 and was ordered to serve 10 life sentences within the case.
