A sheriff in Oklahoma accuses a district attorney in a lawsuit of making “uninformed and ignorant comments” about a lack of information to press charges against a serial killer in the disappearance of a 16-year-old girl nearly 50 years ago.

Osage County Sheriff Eddie Virden alleges Mike Fisher, the district attorney for Osage and Pawnee, made the comments at a news conference last month about an investigation the Sheriff has been conducting since 2007 into mass murderer Dennis Rader, the BTK Killer, a name he gave himself which stands for “bind, torture, kill.”
