The Search
for the
Kansas College Rapist
One person is responsible for at least 15 attacks which resulted in over a dozen brutal rapes since 2000 in two Kansas college towns.
After almost ten years, police decided the rapist must have "moved on" or gotten sick but they were wrong. The assailant turned up again in 2015, just as desperate to attack but now he knows the police have his DNA, so what's a rapist to do in this day and age with tools like the MVAC and high definition real-time surveillance cameras?
Apparently, for the time being, his pattern is changing. Is he cognizant of the high probability that it's only a matter of time before police come knocking, just as they did for other violent pervs who never thought they'd get caught?
Police are not relying on forensics.
They have created a website to appeal to the community, on which they have placed an entire timeline of the events and even an offender profile.
We hope they don't stop there.
