A man who worked as a supervisor at security company ADT talks about his former co-worker BTK suspect Dennis Rader.

Feb. 28 - It has been a long time since former ADT supervisor Michael Fitch thought about Dennis Rader. Then he saw Saturday's news conference.
Fitch met Rader while both worked for ADT security systems.
Fitch says, "His job was to install the alarm and my job at first was just to go out and find out why the alarm went off."
Fitch describes Rader as an odd character. At times Fitch says Rader would constantly argue with other employees. At other times he was a nice guy.
Thinking back, Fitch worries about all the sensitive information Rader was privy to, like how to cut phone lines. Fitch says Rader also had access to security badges.
Many of BTK's victims had their phone lines cut. And a letter sent to KAKE from BTK included photo copies of security badges.
Fitch says, "I do know working for a high profile security company like that he could do a lot of damage if unchecked."
Fitch says Rader was eventually fired from ADT for not meeting his quota. But he has thoughts like many people who knew the Park City man have wondered.
Fitch says, "I thought about the Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde syndrome. How can someone be professional one minute and a killer the next?"
