 Ted Bundy was raised in Tacoma, Washington. Extreme Contracting, a construction business, just won the bid to rebuild Bundy's childhood house. They began working in September 2016 and instantly discovered weird occurrences within the property. While some employees claimed to have heard doorknobs jingle, others claimed to have heard knocking on the door but found no one on the other side. Over the course of seven months, the crew noticed at least 30 weird incidents, including two notes scribbled in the house, one saying "leave" in sawdust and the other "help me" in dirt in the basement.

 +===== Not Only Women, But Girls Too =====
 +
 +During his time in Florida in 1978, Bundy went on another murdering spree. Kimberly Leach, a 12-year-old girl from Lake City Junior High School, was one of Bundy's victims in Florida. She went to get her handbag from homeroom and was never seen alive again. [([[https://www.cbsnews.com/news/ted-bundy-serial-killer-survivor-stories/|CBS News]])]
 +
 +===== He Rescued A Boy From Drowning =====
 +
 +One of the most noticeable personality traits that surprised everyone who knew Ted Bundy was his ability to be an extremely helpful guy. While working at a suicide prevention hotline, he not only saved dozens of lives, but he also saved a small boy from drowning. In 1970, a three-year-old kid ran away from his parents and plunged into Seattle's Green Lake, saving his life. Witnesses said Bundy jumped into Green Lake right away to save the child's life. This would be around the time Bundy began his serial killing spree, or shortly before it began.[([[https://historycollection.com/killer-plain-sight-6-facts-serial-killer-ted-bundy/4/|History Collection]])]
 +
 +===== Bundy Acted As His Own Attorney In Court =====
 +
 +Ted Bundy dreamed of becoming a lawyer while in college. Bundy was accepted to law school in 1973 after completing his undergraduate degree in psychology; however, he dropped out a year later. However, even though he had counsel present, Bundy frequently acted as his own attorney throughout his Florida trial. According to the Netflix documentary, Bundy requested to be a part of his own defense after his counsel told him he was guilty. After the judge dismissed Bundy's lawyers' request to withdraw from the case, the lawyer became an advisory council member, and Bundy became co-counsel.[([[https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/ted-bundy-acted-own-lawyer-215054314.html|Yahoo]])]
 +
 +===== Bundy Asked His Witness To Marry Him During Kimberly Leach’s Trial =====
 +
 +During his trial for the murder of Kimberly Leach, Bundy questioned his witness, Carole Ann Boone, about his character. Bundy asked Boone to marry him after she gave him a positive response. She concurred. The Netflix documentary examines George Dekle's revelation, in which he states that he suspected it was one of Bundy's tactics on the jury and asks the jury to consider the timing of the marriage proposal. Dekle saw it as Bundy's way of saying that the jury would be unable to convict him on his wedding day.

 +
 +===== No One Knows How Many Women Bundy Murdered =====
 +
 +Ted Bundy only gave the women he raped, tortured, and murdered a number before his execution by electric chair. He indicated that there were approximately 30 women when he offered this number. Many individuals believe Bundy murdered several more women. Bundy is thought to have murdered around 100 women and young girls. The issue is that because he never told one person everything and frequently left many information out, investigators were unable to determine the actual number. Furthermore, no one knows when Bundy began murdering individuals, and the question is likely to remain unanswered. [([[https://www.biography.com/crime-figure/ted-bundy|Biography]])]
 +
 +===== Bundy Tried Politics =====
 +
 +Bundy explains that his love in college, Diane Edwards, pushed him to accomplish more with his life. As a result, he chose to enter politics. He began volunteering for the Republican Party of Washington. He worked on Governor Daniel E. Evan's re-election campaign, and once Evans was re-elected, he became Ross Davis's assistant.

 +
 +===== Bundy Worked For The Seattle Crime Prevention Advisory Commission =====
 +
 +Bundy was an employee of the Seattle Crime Prevention Advisory Commission. Bundy claims that this provided him with access to crime statistics, particularly for the division he worked on, which dealt with crimes against women, specifically rape. He would research the data and then advise them on how they should work to avoid rape. Bundy discovered that police agencies didn't always know what to do and understood that someone who knew how police functioned could get away with these crimes.[([[https://www.refinery29.com/en-us/2019/01/222565/ted-bundy-job-political-campaigner-lawyer|Refinery29]])]
 +
 +===== He Attacked Four Women In A Sorority House =====
 +
 +Ted Bundy escaped from a Florida jail in 1978 and then broke into the Chi Omega sorority house at Florida State University. He was only in the house for 20 minutes, but he raped and brutally murdered two ladies, Margaret Bowman and Lisa Levy. He also brutally attacked two other women who attempted to flee the house. Both of these women had a shattered jaw, lacerations, and tooth loss. Bundy, however, did not stop there. He walked a few blocks after leaving the sorority before breaking into another woman's house and beating her as well.

 +
 +===== He Assisted In The Creation Of A Database To Aid In The Capture Of Serial Killers =====
 +
 +The FBI tried to develop a computer database that would aid in the detection of serial killers by studying patterns. To aid in the creation of a profile, FBI agents began speaking with serial killers such as Bundy. Bundy warned the FBI that law enforcement needed to adapt their processes for these types of crimes because new offenders were emerging. Bundy spoke about how serial killers return to crime scenes and leave evidence to confuse law enforcement. This database aided in the capture of numerous serial killers, including the Green River Killer, Gary Ridgway. [([[https://phys.org/news/2011-08-ted-bundy-dna-added-database.html|Phys]])]
 +
 +===== His Attorney Believes Bundy’s First Victim Was A Man =====
 +
 +During the 1970s, John Henry Browne worked as an attorney for Bundy. According to Browne, Bundy acknowledged to killing over 100 individuals solely to him. Browne claims Bundy informed him he didn't just murder women, but also guys. Bundy disclosed to Browne that his first victim was a man. Of course, this is only one man's narrative among many that Ted Bundy told to investigators, doctors, and lawyers. Browne, who recently published The Devil's Defender, says that this information is crucial because he didn't tell anyone else.

 +
 +===== Bundy Attracted His Victims Using His Personality =====
 +
 +One of Ted Bundy's truths is that, despite committing scores of twisted killings, he could flip on his charismatic demeanor if he so desired. He exhibited this aspect of his personality throughout his life, which is why many who knew him well were astonished by his crimes. Bundy also utilized his enticing demeanor to entice his victims to accompany him. He accomplished this by portraying himself as disabled, in need of assistance, or as an authority figure. He would transport the victims to a private spot where he would commit his crimes.[([[https://www.psychologytoday.com/intl/blog/wicked-deeds/201912/examining-serial-killer-ted-bundy|Psychology Today]])]
 +
 +===== He Would Sometimes Return To His Crime Scene =====
 +
 +It wasn't enough for Ted Bundy to commit the crime and dispose of the body. People discovered via inquiry and interviews with Bundy that he frequently returned to the location of the incident. When he returned, he would reenact the scene, occasionally criticizing himself to see how he could improve the offense with his next victim. When visualizing the crime, he would occasionally grow aroused. Bundy would return to the crime spot on occasion until the location was destroyed by wild animals. [([[https://www.psychologytoday.com/intl/blog/wicked-deeds/201912/examining-serial-killer-ted-bundy|Psychology Today]])]
 +
 +===== Bundy Abused The Victim Bodies =====
 +
 +Ted Bundy's fascination in his victims did not end when he murdered them. Bundy would return from time to time if he left the corpse at the site. When he did, he became interested in the carcass and continued his sexual fantasies on it until decomposition made it impossible or the carcass was ripped apart by wild animals. [([[https://thekeep.eiu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=4722&context=theses|The Keep]])]
 +
 +===== Some Of Ted Bundy’s Victims Survived =====
 +
 +Ted Bundy evolved into an extraordinarily aggressive individual over the course of his life. He violently battered but did not kill some of his victims. It's unclear if Bundy anticipated they'd die from the beating and left them for dead, or whether he didn't care if they lived or died. However, a couple of his intended victims made it out alive. In fact, one of these Salt Lake City victims recognized Bundy in a police lineup in 1975.[([[https://abcnews.go.com/US/timeline-ted-bundys-brutal-crimes/story?id=61077236|ABC News]])]
 +
 +===== During His Attacks, He Used A Variety Of Weapons =====
 +
 +Ted Bundy didn't only rape and murder his victims with his hands. While no one is certain that we know all of the weapons Ted Bundy used during his serial killer career, we do know that he beat his victims with a tire iron, several knives, a rifle, and other items. He also sodomized his victims before and after their deaths with any foreign object he could get his hands on.

 +
 +Ted Bundy didn't only rape and murder his victims with his hands.

 +
 +===== Bundy Escaped To Freedom During His Trial =====
 +
 +During his late 1970s and early 1980s trial in Florida, Ted Bundy took advantage of every advantage he could think of. While he was acting as his own counsel, the judge permitted Bundy to be free of shackles during his trial. When Bundy asked if he might use the law library during a break to study his case, this loophole proved to be a mistake. The judge agreed, but while Bundy was checking things out in the library, he discovered a window and escaped.

 +
 +===== Bundy Hid For Nearly A Week =====
 +
 +Bundy hid about the region for nearly a week after escaping from the law library before being apprehended again by officials. Despite the fact that Bundy broke his ankle when he leaped from the second level of the building, he went around Aspen, removing his outer layer of clothing. Bundy then broke into a hunting cabin and stole a gun and food. He traveled about the forest from there, missing two trials that would have guided him to his target spot. Six days later, a cop observed a weaving automobile and pulled it over, where he discovered Bundy.[([[https://abcnews.go.com/US/notorious-serial-killer-ted-bundy-escape-custody/story?id=61032623|ABC News]])]
 +
 +===== Bundy Escaped A Second Time =====
 +
 +Ted Bundy managed to escape a second time, this time while still incarcerated. Bundy spotted a one-square-foot-wide hole in the corner of his cell's ceiling one day. On December 23, 1977, he fled after losing roughly 35 pounds. Bundy put folders and books under his covers to make it appear as if he was sleeping in his bed. Authorities could not find him until a few months later, on February 15, 1978. We know that at this time, he murdered at least two college women and savagely beat a couple more.

 +
 +===== Bundy Bit His Victims =====
 +
 +While Ted Bundy did many cruel things to his victims, biting was one of them that eventually helped put him in prison. Nearly all of Bundy’s victims, that are acknowledged to be his anyway, had bite marks all over their body, including the breasts, stomach, and butt. Bundy bit one of his victims so hard that he took off her nipple. To connect Bundy to his crimes, he received an impression of his teeth, which matched the bite marks on his victims.[([[https://www.ranker.com/list/ted-bundy-facts/lyra-radford|Ranker]])] 
 +
 +===== Bundy Had A Fan Club =====

 +Ted Bundy managed to escape a second time, this time while still incarcerated. Bundy spotted a one-square-foot-wide hole in the corner of his cell's ceiling one day.

 +
 +===== Bundy Received The Death Penalty =====
 +
 +Ted Bundy was sentenced on February 10, 1980, the day after he proposed to and married Carole Ann Boone while she stood on the witness stand claiming his innocence. The judge sentenced Ted Bundy to death by electrocution for the third time. Both Boone and Bundy were enraged and yelled, claiming his innocence. However, the third death sentence would be carried out nine years later.[([[https://www.biography.com/crime-figure/ted-bundy|Biography]])]
 +
 +===== Bundy Had A Daughter With Boone And Possibly Other Children =====
 +
 +A year after Bundy and Boone were married in court, Boone gave birth to a daughter, Rose. Four years later, though, Bundy acknowledged many killings, prompting Boone to divorce him. Since then, the daughter has changed her name and has remained out of the public eye. While this is Bundy's only known daughter, many people suspect he had others.
