Everyone wondered: how could this man commit such shocking crimes? In this feature-length NBC News documentary, originally seen as part of "Dateline NBC," the BTK Killer speaks out in his own words about what drove him to kill.

Includes never-heard-before details about these crimes, providing a unique, startling, and in-depth journey inside the darkness of a notorious criminal.
