Who is Brian Rader? 
Brian Rader is popularly known for being the son of Dennis Lynn Rader. Aside from the bad reputation caused by his father, Brian is a decent man who served in the US Navy between 2004 and 2009. His father, Dennis Lynn Rader, also known as Denn Rader, is an infamous American serial killer widely known as BTK. Which according to him means “bind, torture, kill”. He goes by other variations such as the BTK Killer or the BTK Strangler. In order to get credit for his score, Dennis reported to authorities details of his deadly acts. He was apprehended and records reveal that he killed ten people in Wichita and Park City, Kansas between 1974 and 1991.
At the time of his father’s arrest, Brian Rader was 30 years old. And although he has yet to speak up about his father’s crimes and subsequent sentencing, his younger sister, Kerri Rawson, who was 27 years old at the time has since spoken up. She wrote a book detailing her experience with a serial killer dad, how she maintained contact when he was arrested and why she later got a legal cease-contact against her dad, before his death.
With this in mind, I would share facts about Brian Rader, details about him, and more. Before I continue, let’s take a quick look at his profile summary.

Where was he during the time of his father’s arrest? He was stationed at a sub-base in Connecticut during the time of his father’s arrest in February 2005.

His relationship with his father is something Brian has decided to keep off the media. However, his sister revealed that his father once attempted to strangle him when he spoiled dinner – adding that Brian will have to move out soon.

Dennis did not value his family, he described them as “Pawns in his game”.
Brian is single and not seen to be in a romantic relationship with anyone. His sister revealed to the Wichita Eagle newspaper, that he does not have a family or kids as she does.
