Question

thoughts on Ted Bundy criminal case?

Answer 1

• Ted Bundy was one of the most notorious serial killers and rapists in the 1970s.He has known to be killed more than 30 odd women which he had confessed and was executed in an electric chair.And now after so many years he has become an urban legend which people read and talk about and has inspired many books and movies.
• He was considered charming and having good looks which made quite famous during the time he was alive.And why he has inspired people to write books and make movies about him can be attributed to these things and also a certain mystery attached to him that why he did what he did,what was his journey like to becoming such a dangerous sick killer.
• Such characters almost become mythical in nature and make people curious about how someone can become so dark.
• I think it was huge decision that the US court took to execute him in 1989 since now the trials have become even more complicated and electric chairs are not used to punish such criminals.It was a bold move to punish someone like that.Although it took the police a while to catch hold of him since they thought a clean law student with no adult criminal record could be a perpetrator.
• He did not feel any remorse during his trials confessing to the murders.A group of psychologists from University of Kentucky studied his case and found him to be suffering from antisocial personality disorder.He was a prototype ticking all the boxes in the diagnostic criteria.
