Paula Dietz Salary and Net Worth

Her net worth is estimated to be around $700,000 dollars. Her professional career as a bookkeeper provided her with this sum of money. She avoids the media and the spotlight after her ex-husband is arrested.

How did Paula Dietz’s marriage to Dennis Rader go?

Paula Dietz is content with her single life, which she shares with her daughter Kerry, son, and grandchildren. The mother of two is stronger mentally and emotionally than she was before. Dietz never wrote a letter or met the father of her two children after he was arrested in 2005.

Dietz married her ex-husband Dennis Rader on May 22, 1971, in Kansas. Paula was 23 at the time, and Dennis was 26. They have a daughter, two children, including Brian, and Kerry Rawson, who was born in 1979. Kerry and her husband, Darian Rawson, have two children and live in Michigan.

After Rader’s arrest on July 26, 2005, Mrs. Dietz was granted an emergency divorce (without the usual waiting period). Paula now claims that every day of her life had been a lie with him. Because Dennis victimized Paula, she has lost both her home and her income.

Kerri had the appearance of a tomboy because she was a father’s child who had built her a treehouse. Dennis enjoyed spending time with his daughter in the treehouse, but he was still a serial killer.

Dennis Rader, Paula Dietz’s Husband’s Profession and Career

Dennis Rader’s family had no idea that their former church and Boy Scout Leader was a BTK. It was nothing out of the ordinary for the Rader family. Dennis worked as a security guard and later as a park city compliance officer. He rose through the ranks to become the congregation’s president at Christ Lutheran Church. They were a normal family before BTK’s arrest. From 1966 to 1970, he served in the United States Air Force. Dennis returned to work in the meat department of a Leekers IGA supermarket, where his mother worked as a bookkeeper.

BTK Dennis Rader, BTK Killer

Rader had sadistic sexual fantasies of torturing trapped and helpless women since he was a child. He spied on women’s windows while dressed in women’s clothing, including stolen underwear, and did risky things. He was regarded as a normal, well-mannered, and polite man in the community because he kept his sexual proclivities hidden. Nobody expected the killer to be Kerri Rawson’s father.

According to journalist Susan Peter, Dennis Rader, a Kansas resident, murdered recently widowed Mrs. Marine Wallace Hedge on April 27, 1985. Kerry Rawson, a six-year-old girl, knew only one victim: Marine. Mrs. Marine’s body was discovered ten days later by police. After three decades and ten murders, the Wichita communities could breathe a sigh of relief.

Kathryn Doreen Bright (April 4, 1974), Shirley Ruth Vian Relford (March 17, 1977), Nancy Jo Fox (December 8, 1977), Vickey Lynn Wegerle (September 16, 1986), and Dolores Earline Johnson Davis were all murdered by the Mindhunter (January 19, 1991)

While walking home from lunch, the BTK was arrested at the corner. Several Wichita Police and FBI officers pinned him down with their trucks. For thirty-one years, Rader, aka BTK Killer (Bind, Torture, Kill), remained unknown. He used to undress the dead bodies, bind them, and photograph them.

On February 25, 2005, Rader’s daughter Kerri Rawson decided to come out and assist Wichita Police in identifying and apprehending her BTK serial killer father. Kerri was in physical shock, and the incident completely blew up her life. Dennis Rader’s arrest, believe it or not, marked the beginning of a real-life nightmare that has lasted to this day.

Since her father’s arrest, Kerri has been saddled with the shame of being BTK’s daughter. Kerri knew her father murdered four members of the Joseph Otero family on January 15, 1974; the father, mother, and two children, ages 11 and 9, were discovered tortured and murdered in their Wichita home.
