(from Lifetime's press release, May 2024) The Killer Inside: The Ruth Finley Story follows Ruth (Hatcher) and her husband, Ed's (Tahmoh Penikett), tranquil life in Wichita, Kansas which is suddenly turned upside down when Ed suffers a heart attack. As Ed fights for his life in the hospital, Ruth's starts to receive mysterious threats, leaving her in a state of panic. With the city held hostage by the terror of the BTK killer, Ruth finds herself enveloped in paranoia, convinced that she will be the next victim, as the menacing phone calls escalate into chilling letters. Amidst the frenzy of the police's pursuit of BTK, Ruth is abducted, sending shockwaves through the community.

As suspicion mounts and new evidence comes to light, the authorities entertain the unsettling notion that the perpetrator may be someone intimately connected to Ruth.
