Ted Bundy, one of America’s most infamous serial killers was known to abduct women then sexually assault and then murder them afterwards. People often wonder how a guy like him a well-looking, law student could ever commit such crimes. And the fact that such a guy with his background would do such things makes us realize that some people aren’t who we thought them to be.
Born as Theodore Robert Cowell or Theodore “Ted” Robert Bundy after his mother married lived a seemingly rough and troubled childhood. He never knew his real father and was raised by whom at first he thought were his real parents but they were in fact his grandparents and was made to believe that his mother was actually his older sister. In Ted Bundy’s early childhood years, he lived in his grandparents’ house in Philadelphia. During his time at his grandparents’ house, his grandfather, or his father as he knew him at first, was a racist and a man who abused his wife and their dog. And on 1951, Ted Bundy together with his mother, left Philadelphia and went to live in Tacoma, Washington. Ted already showed early signs of problems because of being teased a lot because he had a speech impediment, he also didn’t fit in with the Boy Scouts and he also had a temper and also liked making so-called “tiger traps” in the woods and it ended up hurting a girl causing the girl to have an injury. Also as a child, Ted believed that people perceived him in a different way than he perceived himself.
After moving to Tacoma, Ted started going to the University of Washington where he would most people believe, commit his first crime by assaulting Karen Sparks, a student and dancer at the University of Washington. Ted Bundy’s next attack was for Lynda Ann Healy which was Bundy’s first confirmed murder. The police then conducted an investigation into her room and found out that the room was very neat except for some blood in the head area of her bed. Afterwards, another abduction and murder was made in the University of Washington area which this time was Georgann Hawkins who was taken while walking back to her dorm and then disappeared suddenly. Ted then started to date Elizabeth Kloepfer, who was among the first people to report Ted Bundy as a suspect in the murders in the Pacific Northwest. Police officers were then locking down on suspects that matched the witnesses’ descriptions such as introducing his name as Ted and driving a bug. Eventually, the police narrowed it down to 100 suspects and Ted Bundy was one of them but when shown in a lineup, 7 out of 8 women failed to recognize him which led to his release.
He then moved to Utah where he would continue his onslaught by abducting murdering and sexually abusing women Also Utah was the place where he would ultimately be caught. During his time in Utah, while he was being tried for the charges filed against him, Ted Bundy, during a court break, asked to visit the courthouse’s library to research his case. While away from his guards’ view behind a bookcase, he opened a window and jumped to the ground from the second story, injuring his right ankle as he landed. After his escape, Ted Bundy was eventually caught again after 6 days, when an officer noticed his car weaving in and out of its lane and pulled him over. While detained, Ted Bundy managed to escape once again by losing weight and boring a hole into his cell’s ceiling and escaped.
After his daring escape, Ted then headed to Florida where he went on a killing spree inside the Chi Omega sorority house where he sexually assaulted and murdered some of its residents. After his crimes, Ted Bundy was once again caught and brought into a court in Florida to begin his trials.
Ted Bundy’s psychological instability was evident throughout the whole Florida trials. Ted Bundy wanted to be his own defense attorney even though he never really finished law school. Ted allegedly even sabotaged his own attorney’s plan for him to plead guilty out of spite and distrust against them. Ted believed he could get away with his crimes but justice ultimately caught up to him when the bite marks on one of the victims matched Ted Bundy’s dental imprint. After being convicted, he was ultimately sentenced to the death penalty.
Ted Bundy’s early troubled childhood days, may have implicated to what type of man he will grow into once he gets old enough. Nevertheless, did his early childhood woes affect his way of thinking or maybe even snapped something inside him that caused him to be the ruthless serial killer we all know today?
In his interviews and trials, Ted Bundy believed in one thing, and that was that he thought himself to be better than everybody else. Ted’s encounters with other people also to an extent that it even me makes me wonder how someone could be so arrogant and so self-proclaimed that he even believes he is better than everyone in the trials and even though. Ted Bundy could also be called a very manipulative person mostly because he knew how to make other people who didn’t know what he’s done think that he was innocent. Ted knew how to keep his composure even in the most pressured times and that led some people to think that he may be innocent. Ted Bundy can also be called a psychopath because, underneath his charming façade, he has absolutely no guilt. Even until his death Ted never claimed responsibility for the crimes he was charged with.
Ted’s case opened the eyes of the many that people aren’t who they seem to be, at first no one ever expected that a clean-cut law student like him could do such devious acts but why? Maybe we always assumed that they would look like how pop culture represented them but when in fact, the next Ted Bundy or another psychopath may be just hidden in plain sight among people you thought you knew.
