BTK killer Dennis Rader's daughter Kerri Rawson hit with domestic violence injunction: report

Kerri Rawson, the daughter of notorious "BTK" serial killer Dennis Rader and a prominent victims' advocate, has been subject to a domestic violence injunction after her ex-husband claimed she repeatedly warned that he and their children were in danger of being murdered, according to court records first reported by the New York Post.

Rawson has become a bestselling author and advocate for victims of violent crime since her father's 2005 arrest, writing and speaking publicly about growing up as the daughter of one of America's most notorious serial killers.

A Florida judge granted the injunction after Darian Rawson filed a petition describing a series of incidents that allegedly left him fearing for his safety and the safety of the former couple's two teenage children.

The order temporarily awarded Darian Rawson full custody of the children and limited Kerri Rawson's contact with them to electronic communications. She was also prohibited from going near their home or school and from having contact with the family's pets.

The petition alleged that Kerri Rawson summoned her former husband to an Altamonte Springs police station on Jan. 5, 2025, where she allegedly told him she had psychic abilities that allowed her to determine their children were in immediate danger and would be murdered that morning.

The filing further alleged Kerri Rawson warned police that people were coming to harm the family before later calling 911 and reporting that shots had been fired, several active shooters were at an apartment complex and three people were dead. Officers who responded found the family safe, according to a police report cited by the Post.

Police later located Rawson at Orlando International Airport and transported her to a hospital, where she voluntarily admitted herself, the report said.

The injunction petition said she was later taken into custody under Florida's Baker Act, which allows authorities to temporarily detain a person for a mental health examination under certain circumstances.

An incident report obtained by the Post described Rawson as "an individual known to make inaccurate and fabricated statements about incidents that did not actually occur, due to mental health issues."

The Post also reported that Darian Rawson later alleged Kerri Rawson violated the injunction by contacting him multiple times despite the no-contact order.

Dennis Rader murdered 10 people in the Wichita, Kansas, area between 1974 and 1991 while living what appeared to be a normal suburban life with his family. His nickname, BTK, stood for "bind, torture, kill." He pleaded guilty to the murders in 2005 and is serving 10 consecutive life sentences without the possibility of parole.

Rawson published the memoir "A Serial Killer's Daughter" in 2019 and has appeared in documentaries and television programs discussing her father's crimes and advocating for victims of violent crime.

A representative for Rawson did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
