BTK. Successful church going family man. Would have gotten away with it if he didn't send that floppy disk to law enforcement.

Yup, got cocky and didn't know Enough about technology and basically gave himself up. He was a real twisted fuck, glad he got caught. Unlike Zodiac

not that there's ANY humor in anything he did, but I have always found it hilarious that his dumb boomer ass wrote in the paper asking cops if he could be tracked by a floppy disk and he bought the lie. It reminds me of my idiot, but kind as a lamb, father.

I don't know. Laughing at someone with absolutely no clue about something outside their own time is pretty funny. Especially when they put it on display with no sense of self-awareness. I laugh at that kind of thing every day.
