Serial Killers
Ted Bundy
Roman Olivera
The name Ted Bundy is a name is that automatically links thought to the words serial killer. It seems we all know the name, but this article helps us see the nature of his crimes and the psychopathic behavior that eventually got him caught and convicted of the murders and attacks that he was sentenced to death for. I think something that really stands out is the way Ted Bundy used his good looks and intelligence to lure his victims into trusting him in some cases, but eventually was part of what got him caught due to the people involved in his attacks being able to identify him. The links that were discovered through early forensic science of the bite marks left on his victims was particularly intriguing to me because there able to link him to crimes he might have never been held accountable for otherwise. Thankfully through the surviving victims, the eye witness testimonies and great investigative police work the bold psychopathic serial killer was arrested and put to death for his crimes.

It is extremely difficult to comprehend exactly what goes on inside the mind of someone like Ted Bundy. When someone even mentions his name, the first thought that comes to mind is the fact that he was one of, if not the most infamous figures of the modern age, and not for any good reason. The chilling reality of what he did to his victims, and how he was almost able to walk free in society serve as a reminder of what exactly certain individuals are capable of, and how they can be driven to do despicable things, under certain circumstances. We will never know exactly what went on inside the mind of Ted Bundy, but the fact of the matter still remains, that even though he did what he did, he was still brought to justice.

I had never heard the story of Ted Bundy. It is interesting to know how someone could almost get away with murder. It is scary knowing the legal system can sometimes fail and peoples lives can be in danger. It is good that they caught him and justice was served. It is scary that this is a true story and people got hurt from it.

The unfortunate victims of Ted Bundy had no idea of the monster that he was until their very last. Using his good looks and charm to disarm the young girls, he would attack with no remorse. It is crazy to think how long it took for law enforcement to apprehend him, even with all the evidence he would leave behind. At least we have the peace of mind that justice was served.

Ted Bundy is probably the closest to who or what “the Devil” and “evil” represents. If you are more interested in learning about his way of thinking you should read “The Devil’s Defender” by the criminal defense attorney John Henry Browne, who represented Ted Bundy in his trials. He mentions that Bundy would buy mice and would play “God” in which he decided which mouse would live and which one would not. He also mentions that he would stalk women and would do the same to them, deciding who would live or die. As an aspiring Attorney I can not imagine being a criminal defense attorney for what could be some of the worst people alive. Mr. Browne also mentions that he feels partly responsible for some of the killings due to the fact that he asked to put Bundy in a cell with better conditions, which was the cell he escaped from. Great article, it brings to light the disgusting acts this man did.

the thought of ted bundy makes me shiver. the fact that people like him exist in the world and that I would never know if that was my best friend scares me. this article is a very well composed article and describes the victims as well as the crimes in a lot of detail. how people represent people like this in court is beyond me. I probably would not have the strength to represent someone as heartless.

This man was hell on Earth. He could not have been any more deceiving and devilish, to say the least. The fact that he would lure these woman by faking injuries and making himself seem like the innocent man who needs a hand is so sickening to think about. You truly never know who you can trust, and it is only getting worse in this day and age. Although Ted isn’t alive now, I genuinely think that he could have done much more harm now if he was.

This article is very interesting and i learned more about the infamous Ted Bundy that i never knew before. I never knew that at one point he actually escaped prison and proceeded to murder many others while he was on the run. It is scary to think anyone can be a killer and you cant really trust anybody anymore. Especially since he was described as a young attractive man.

It’s a very heartbreaking note that so many women were killed despite the help of DaRonch’s testimony and authorities cooperation. However, I’m surprised that such a meticulous killer like Bundy would commit all his crimes in the same outfit and car each time. I cannot believe the irony that he was arrested because of a simple traffic stop. I couldn’t believe that he escaped prison and rented an apartment and then committed the attack on the sorority house (an attack which I’ve never heard of before). Very heartbreaking how Kimberly could have been saved if only the bystander had reported something.

When I hear the name ‘Ted Bundy’ I automatically think, “the serial killer?” Isn’t it sad for a name to cause such anger. I have heard about his cruel and mischievous crimes and how he negatively affected many people. What surprised me was how he was able to get away with his crimes for the long period that he did. Or how they didn’t have the evidence to give him a trial; even though they had from his teeth marks down to the suspicious supplies in his car. I learned something new about Ted Bundy; very good article.
