BTK STRANGLER

Spiritual Warfare

In the world in which we live, some things that occur are hard to understand and even harder to believe. There is a force out there that is attempting to overtake us all ... It is satan. There is another force out there that is protecting us from him ... It is the Holy Spirit. It is a battle for souls. This battle is called Spiritual Warfare and like it or not ... You are right in the middle of it.

We will work together in becoming more familiar with the spiritual world that is going on all around us. Most are blinded to this realm because they ponder on worldly matters.

In truth, there is a spiritual warfare battle going on between God and satan.

What are they warring over?

Your soul ...

BTK Strangler

Prior to his capture, there are those that suggested that the absence of BTK for many years may have been due to his death, incarceration or having married. Now that these theories have been ruled out, that leaves few avenues for those who elect to try and discern his whereabouts during the time lapse, to conclude.

After evaluating all of the available information on the BTK strangler and having read many of the theories from "investigators" of all sorts, both novice and professional, as well as much of the feedback from chat rooms and off of the discussion boards that have emerged since BTK resurrected ... It is painfully obvious that everyone is overlooking one glaring fact.

He may be telling the truth.

The glaring fact that everyone is failing to recognize is that BTK has always possessed a pattern of popping up and then disappearing for long periods of time. There's another possibility as to where he has been all of this time. Listen to the words that BTK shared in one of his letters.

He said that:

"After a thing like Fox, I come home and go about life like anyone else."

... Which suggests that he has the capability to commit these horrific acts and then to return to a regular life and just blend in with his surroundings like some sort of chameleon lizard. It is now known that he was just hanging out there in Kansas living life as everyone else does. Maybe he just soothes the "monster's" cravings during these absences, with the photos that he has and some imagination, by reinventing the stage. Thereby satisfying the beast.

As he said ...

"Society can be thankful that there are ways for people like me to relieve myself at time by day dreams of some victims being torture and being mine."

Let's take a look at what BTK has been saying all along ...

"I write this letter to you for the sake of the tax payer as well as your time. Those three dude you have in custody are just talking to get publicity for the Otero murders. They know nothing at all. I did it by myself and with no one's help. There has been no talk either. Let's put this straight."

He wanted everyone to know the truth. He wanted them to know that he did it and told nobody about it.

"I'm sorry this happen to society. They are the ones who suffer the most. It hard to control myself. You probably call me 'psychotic with sexual perversion hang-up.' When this monster enter my brain I will never know. But, it here to stay. How does one cure himself? If you ask for help, that you have killed four people they will laugh or hit the panic button and call the cops.

"I can't stop it so the monster goes on, and hurt me as well as society. Society can be thankful that there are ways for people like me to relieve myself at time by day dreams of some victims being torture and being mine. It a big compicated game my friend of the monster play putting victims number down, follow them, checking up on them waiting in the dark, waiting, waiting... the pressure is great and sometimes he run the game to his liking. Maybe you can stop him. I can't. He has aready chosen his next victim or victims. I don't who they are yet. The next day after I read the paper, I will know, but it to late. Good luck hunting.

"YOURS, TRULY GUILTILY"

He deems himself "guilty" ... Which is something to ponder on. It appears that he wanted it to stop, but could not control it. He was unable to share with anyone what was happening to him. So he finally accepted it and evolved with it.

"P.S. Since sex criminals do not change their M.O. or by nature cannot do so, I will not change mine. The code words for me will be ... Bind them, toture them, kill them, BTK, you see he at it again. They will be on the next victim."

Again, here he seems to accept what he has become and wants to show everyone how to identify his handiwork. In addition ... In this statement, he is saying that he will put "BTK" on his next victim ... Did he? Did he somehow "put" the initials BTK on his next victim? Is this one of the pieces of evidence that the police are keeping quiet about?

Also ... He does not use past or present tense in his wording. He uses poor English throughout (whether on purpose or not) but in his post script, he does use proper English, yet changes back when he states:

Bind them, toture them, kill them, BTK, you see he at it again.

As though he wants people to believe that (or the "monster" really is) uneducated and/or writes differently than he himself, yet throughout his words, when it would be he himself speaking, it is still improper English.

Interesting fact is that throughout his words he claims to be possessed.

"When this monster enter my brain I will never know. But, it here to stay. How does one cure himself? If you ask for help, that you have killed four people they will laugh or hit the panic button and call the cops."

"I can't stop it so the monster goes on, and hurt me as well as society. Society can be thankful that there are ways for people like me to relieve myself at time by day dreams of some victims being torture and being mine. It a big compicated game my friend of the monster play putting victims number down, follow them, checking up on them waiting in the dark, waiting, waiting... the pressure is great and sometimes he run the game to his liking. Maybe you can stop him. I can't. He has aready chosen his next victim or victims. I don't who they are yet. The next day after I read the paper, I will know, but it to late. Good luck hunting."

Maybe he is telling the truth! BTK uses examples of other serial killers and says they were possessed by same type of entity.

"I am compelled to kill by "factor-X," the same factor that motivated Son of Sam in New York, Jack the Ripper in London and the Hillside Strangler in Los Angeles."

"It seems senseless but we cannot help it."

"There is no help, no cure except death or being caught and put away."

BTK is correct in that there are many serial killers that said that an entity made them do what they did. However, his comparison of the hillside strangler to himself seems odd because it turned out to be two men named Kenneth Alessio Bianchi and Angelo Buono Jr.

These two were men that hated yet lusted for women and that is why they did what they did. They never claimed a "monster" made them do it.

However, at the time of BTK's statement in his letter which read:

"I am compelled to kill by "factor-X," the same factor that motivated Son of Sam in New York, Jack the Ripper in London and the Hillside Strangler in Los Angeles,"

... it was assumed that the Hillside Strangler was one man and so must have BTK to have made his statement. BTK is a different breed than the one (two) that he compared himself to and probably realizes that fact now that the truth of the Hillside Strangler matter has been resolved. "Factor X" had nothing to do with their killing spree. Now, the night stalker said that satan made him do it. The Son of Sam said a demon speaking through a dog made him do what he did, and many others suggested they were led to do what they did by ... voices.

He has mentioned other serial killers in his letters and nicknamed Ted Bundy "Ted of the West Coast" in one of his letters ... There was another serial killer that BTK did not mention, yet was on a killing spree in San Francisco just before BTK was performing his deeds and that serial killer is known as the "Zodiac Killer" ... There are many similarities between the two. For example, both taunted police, both wanted publicity and recognition, both wrote poems, both sent letters with almost purposely misspelled words. Both created their own alias both were about the same age and thought to be white males. Both cases have not been solved, though most believe that Arthur Leigh Allen was the Zodiac Killer due to the multitude of evidence the authorities have. Arthur Leigh Allen died in 1992 and was never convicted of the crime, despite the overwhelming evidence which included physical evidence found in his home and possession, eyewitnesses, a police line up identification and much more.

It is certainly not being suggested that BTK and Zodiac are one in the same, yet it is quite a coincidence that they chose the same methodology in many aspects. Since the Zodiac Killer began his killing spree before BTK did, and his last confirmed communication with the police was in 1974 and BTK started his spree in 1974, it would be logical to assume that BTK was aware of and probably kept up with the deeds of the Zodiac Killer and may have even copied some of his methods, yet strangely enough, did not list him as one of the serial killers in his letter.

However, there is one glaring difference between BTK and the Zodiac Killer ...

BTK's actions were sexual by nature, according to his own words ... and the Zodiac's ... were not.

So, we see that there are different "M.O.s" in "serial killers" ... What makes these individuals do the things that they do? As it was stated earlier, many of these "serial killers" claim to be driven or possessed by an evil entity. But, do these evil entities that they described really exist, or is it just a "the devil made me do it" thing?

Let's take a look at the claims of BTK, that a "monster" was committing the acts through him. Let's look at what BTK said in his letter again ...

"When this monster enter my brain I will never know. But, it here to stay."

He calls it a "monster" and says he does not know when it entered him.

"How does one cure himself? If you ask for help, that you have killed four people they will laugh or hit the panic button and call the cops."

These words by BTK certainly show that he considered asking for help, but logic revealed that it would land him in prison. He also had this thought after the Otero murders, but before his next victim, due to his count being four.

"I can't stop it so the monster goes on, and hurt me as well as society. Society can be thankful that there are ways for people like me to relieve myself at time by day dreams of some victims being torture and being mine."

This passage shows that he attempts not to perform the "monsters" will by just pondering on people being tortured and the desire passes. He also said that the "monster" hurts him. When he said "like me" he has revealed that he has done some research on others that are committing similar acts, such as serial killers.

"It a big compicated game my friend of the monster play putting victims number down, follow them, checking up on them waiting in the dark, waiting, waiting ..."

He sees what the "monster" does as playing a game.

Patience is certainly a quality he possesses.

"... the pressure is great and sometimes he run the game to his liking."

When he says that "sometimes" the monster runs the game to his liking, suggests that he is in a constant struggle to hold a conscience of reality but is overwhelmed by the appetite of the "monster."

"Maybe you can stop him. I can't. He has already chosen his next victim or victims. I don't who they are yet. The next day after I read the paper, I will know, but it to late."

According to BTK ... The "monster" is in control at will, despite the struggle from the human it has entered. So what we have according to BTK and many other "serial killers" is that some evil entity has the ability to overtake their thoughts and actions and commit the will of the entity. It can be controlled at times, but then it returns. This procedure is similar to one that is hungry and is fed, returning when it hungers again.

What if he is telling the truth?

Now, we have all seen movies that portray this scenario where a person is controlled by some demonic entity and we see it as some sort of morbid fictional concept.

However according to much scientific data and even the Bible ... This sort of thing has been going on for thousands of years.
