He favored killing pretty, dark-haired cheerleader types. He would bludgeon his prey to death with blunt objects and was fond of raping and biting them. The bite marks on one of his victims was used as evidence against him at his trial in Florida.
In December 30, 1977, after a previous failed attempt, Ted escaped prison in Colorado and relocated in Tallahassee, Florida, near Florida State University. There he perpetrated his blood-soaked "Guernica" of crime. In January 15, 1978, he set forth on a night of butchery and killed two girls and wounded two others in an around the Chi Omega sorority house in Tallahassee. Two weeks later he stole a van and killed 12-year-old Kimberly Leach in Lake City, Florida, for which, eventually, he was fried. Poor Kimberly's body was found in a pig trough next to a plaid jacket that was not Ted's. She was buried in a cemetery near a Purina plant under a heart-shaped tombstone with her picture on it.
Ted defended himself in trials in Utah, Colorado and Florida as the police tried to put together a trail of dead girls leading to him. During his various trials, a very self-possessed Ted Bundy defended himself garnishing praise and a legion of female admirers. After numerous appeals Bundy was electrocuted by the state of Florida in 1989. For his last meal he had steak, eggs, hash browns and coffee.
Der Jusstudent Theodore Robert Bundy hatte eine glänzende Karriere vor sich - gutaussehend, charmant, intelligent und sehr von sich eingenommen.
Er hatte leichtes Spiel, seine Opfer zu verführen und bediente sich einer Armschlinge, um so an die Hilfsbereitschaft von gutaussehenden, dunkelhaarigen Frauen zu appellieren, ihm mit seinen Einkäufen zu helfen.
Er erschlug seine Opfer mit stumpfen Gegenständgen, vergewaltigte sie und fügt ihnen Bißwunden zu. Seine Zahnabdrücke an einem der Opfer wurden stärkstes Beweismittel in seinem Prozeß in Florida.
Am 30. Dezember 1977 gelang es Ted Bundy aus dem Gefängnis von Colorado zu fliehen und sich in Tallahassee, neben der Florida State University niederzulassen, um sein blutiges Treiben fortzusetzen. Am 15. Jänner 1978 tötete er in einer Nacht zwei junge Frauen und verletzte zwei weitere schwer in einem Studentenheim. Zwei Wochen später stahl er einen Lieferwagen und ermordete die 12-jährige Kimberley Leach in Lake City, Florida.
Nach seiner neuerlichen Verhaftung verteidigte sich Ted Bundy in einer Reihe von Prozessen in Utah, Colorado & Florida selbst - unter den bewundernden Blicken einer Legion von "Killer-Groupies".
Trotz einer Reihe von Einsprüchen landete Ted Bundy 1989 auf dem Elektrischen Stuhl..
