Idaho Murders Suspect Has Eerie Ties To An Infamous Serial Killer
In a case that’s swept the nation, Bryan Kohberger is due back in court on Thursday where he has been charged with the murders of four University of Idaho students. Multiple reports have suggested a linkage between Kohberger and a notorious serial killer. During the same period during which the crime occurred, Kohberger was studying under a serial killer expert who co-wrote a book with Dennis Rader, the infamous BTK killer. Kerri Rawson is the daughter of Rader. She joins the Rundown to discuss her understanding of what the victims’ families are going through, why the case hits close to home, and how she advocates on behalf of victims of trauma and abuse.
