A fingerprint, whisper networks, and Instagram: How Philly strippers banded together as cops tracked a serial rapist

Police say Kevin Bennett took steps to evade detection, switching out guns and cars, and once posing as a utility worker to rob and rape two women in an apartment. But there were mistakes, too.

Police in at least three jurisdictions obtained surveillance images of a man they say perpetrated a string of violent robberies and sexual assaults. Prosecutors have identified him as Kevin Bennett, 28, of Indianapolis.
