If you add in his middle initial, "L", you can find even more.

I've never done a lexigram before, other than trying with my own name once, but found this in his name:

DENNIS SINNED, DEALS IN LIES
DENNIS RADER, A REAL DEALER IN DREAD
INSANE; DEAD INSIDE
LADIES AND A DAD, SLAIN
DENNIS RAISED IRE; IN DENIAL, ERRS?
(O)R DID DENNIS DESIRE AN END?
RIDE DERAILED; DREAD ENDS.
A DAD, A LEADER,
A DEAR SIR? A LIE

I'm too tired to attempt to add to it, and don't know if a couple of sentences make sense.
I don't usually like to throw the word "sin" around, but thought its use was appropriate in this case. As I said, I've never done this before, and will have to double-check at some point to make sure all of the letters are in his name, and that I didn't just get carried away making words (I'll do that when I'm more awake). I was amazed, though, at some of the words that I found. He also has the words "sender" and "dialer" in his name ~ he sent personal belongings of the victims to the authorities, and called the police after one killing, from a phone booth (although none of that is unusual where serial killers are concerned). I suppose you could add, "A LADDIE" in there as well, in reference to the little boy who was killed.

For anyone unfamiliar with the case:

Oh, and I hope nobody minds me posting all of this, I've just had an interest in this case.
