The Court: Mm-hmm
The Defendant: She was a little upset. We talked for a while. She smoked a cigarette. While the – While we smoked a cigarette I went through her purse, identifying some stuff, and she finally said, Well, let’s get this over with so I can go call the police. I said, Yes. She went to the bathroom and came – and I told her when she came out to make sure that she was undressed. And when she came out I handcuffed her, and don’t really remember whether I –
The Court: You handcuffed her?
The Defendant: Sir?
The Court: You handcuffed her? You had a pair of handcuffs?
The Defendant: Yes, sir, uh-huh, mm-hmm.
The Court: What happened then?

I took the belt and then strangled her with the belt at that time.
The Court: All right. All right. After you had strangled her what happened then?
The Defendant: Okay. After I strangled her with the belt I took the belt off and retied that with pantyhose real tight, removed the handcuffs and tied those with – with pantyhose. Can’t remember the colors right now. I think I maybe retied her feet, if they hadn’t already – they were probably already tied, her feet were, and then at that time masturbated, sir.
The Court: All right. Had you had sexual relations with her –
The Defendant: No.
The Court: -- before?
The Defendant: No, no. I told her I was, but I did not.
The Court: All right. So you masturbated. Then what did you do?

The Court: All right. Ms. Foulston: Your Honor, for the record, the address?
The Court: He’s established it was in Sedgwick County. I don’t need an exact address. For purpose of this – It’s in Sedgwick County. Do you remember the address, Mr. Rader?
The Defendant: Oh, the Fox? Nice – 913 or nine oh – 903? No, I – I sure don’t. I know it was on Pershing – South Pershing. That’s all.
The Court: Here in Wichita?
The Defendant: It was nice – It was nine something, sir, but I don’t remember the other numb – digits. Ms. Foulston: It’s 843.
The Court: The address, as I said, is really not important as long as you remember it happened here in Wichita, Sedgwick County, Kansas.
