It's 1978, and Ron Jenkins, a detective with the Huntington police department, suddenly straightens up on his couch at home, unable to look away from the TV. The popular "Dating Game" is on, where a young bachelorette, Cheryl Bradshaw, is blind dating 3 men, and Bachelor no. 1 is terrifyingly familiar to Detective Jenkins. That same afternoon, a parole officer called him to identify a suspected serial killer from a sketch, giving him a name: Rodney Alcala—that man is the same one who's on TV now, winning the show. However, the Dating Game Killer has no idea that his 8 year old victim from years ago is actually alive, and that she will be the one to ultimately take him down.

Serial Killer Outsmarts Cops - 30 Years Later 15YO Gets Revenge | The Case of Charlie Otero

Serial Killer Outsmarts Cops - 30 Years Later 15YO Gets Revenge | The Case of Charlie Otero

"Why did you lie to me?”

On January 15, 1974, 15-year-old Charlie Otero began his day like any other in Wichita, Kansas. His father dropped him off at school that morning, and everything seemed routine. But just hours later, Charlie returned home to a nightmare that would haunt him for decades. Inside his family home, Charlie discovered the bodies of his parents, Joseph and Julie Otero, along with his younger siblings, Joseph Jr. and Josephine. They had been brutally murdered.

The Otero family had become the first victims of a sadistic killer who would later be known as BTK—short for "Bind, Torture, Kill." With no evidence or clear suspects, the case plunged the Otero family into turmoil. Charlie, once an ordinary teenager, was left grappling with unimaginable grief and the constant fear that BTK might come for him next.

Meanwhile, BTK continued his killing spree, targeting more victims while taunting police and the media with letters detailing his crimes. Over the years, his messages grew bolder, mocking law enforcement’s inability to catch him. It would take 30 years to finally catch him, after taunting the police repeatedly, where Charlie would finally be able to confront his family’s killer face to face, and get his revenge.

When Dad is a Serial Killer | The Case of Andrea Blanchard & Trudi

When Dad is a Serial Killer | The Case of Andrea Blanchard & Trudi

"We were next on his hit list”

On July 21st, 1985, Australian single mother Andrea Blanchard lived in constant fear, hiding with her young daughter Trudi. Every time the phone rang, Andrea braced herself for the worst: another bomb had exploded, and this time, hundreds of people were severely injured. The terror that had gripped New South Wales for years was the work of the elusive Family Court Bomber—a man unbeknownst to authorities at the time to be Leonard Warwick.

For years, law enforcement had been unable to catch Warwick. The bombings continued, each one more horrific than the last. But Andrea knew something the cops didn’t—something that could finally put an end to the carnage. She knew what the Family Court Bomber wanted: her daughter, 7-year-old Trudi.

Andrea’s fear for her daughter's life pushed her to take matters into her own hands. She was determined to stop this madman, even if it meant putting herself in harm’s way. With no one else to rely on, Andrea became the only person capable of ending the bombings—and saving Trudi from becoming the bomber’s next target. But in the face of such unspeakable danger, would Andrea be able to outsmart a killer who had already eluded the authorities for so long?
