Two years Ted dedicates Oriental Philology, but in 1969, again changes his mind and goes to Philadelphia, where he continues to study and become a lawyer. In parallel, the guy attends psychology, which becomes one of the best listeners.

By the nature of its activities Bundy had to constantly move around USA. Apparently while he realized that the perpetrators of the crime, it is not difficult to get lost in the vast and populous country. Into the hands of a criminal it was also the division into States, where a significant portion of the powers of the police ended at the borders of administrative units.

Bundy gave the impression of a very positive young man. The man was educated, had a good talker and an attractive appearance. Charm and acting talent have helped a killer quickly find a common language with the victim and get her guard down.

Sometimes Bundy used acting talent. To his seventh victim he walked on the beach with a bandaged hand and a pained grimace. Killer asked Janice Orr for help, and she left with a man from the coast. Of course, more alive no one's seen her.

That day, July 14, 1974, Bundy killed two. The second victim was Dennis of Nesland. Her and Janice found only after 2 months — the two girls were raped and brutally murdered. The investigation revealed that on this day, Bundy was particularly active and met with at least 10 girls. Each of them he presented his real name is Ted.

At the end of the summer of 1974, Bundy quits his job at the care center and relocating. Seattle serial killer he moved to the capital of Utah, salt lake city. Of course, soon the city begins a series of terrible cruelty of the killings.

After the failure of Bundi, realizing that he can now identify in Utah, moved to Colorado. After his arrest, the maniac admitted that in this state, his victims were 4 girls that he killed from January to April 1975. Interestingly, the ex-girlfriend of Bundy Elizabeth Kendall, having learned from the media about the bloody killings of girls in various States of the USA, has addressed in police with the statement that a murderer might be her ex-boyfriend.

The "Volkswagen"

Maniac almost blown 16th August 1975. On this day, a police officer Robert Howard drew attention to the car the Volkswagen parked on the street in violation of the rules. The car was discovered sleeping man claiming rights to the name Ted Bundy.

Findings are not alerted cops and the writing is fine, and departed.

After a while Ted was still detained as a suspect in the murder and even identified Carol ranch, which managed to escape. But none of the 10 girls fail familiar Bundy's near the places of brutal murders, were unable to identify the killer. The result Ted was charged with attempted kidnapping and released under the will.

A talent for reincarnation helped Bundy for his crimes. He skillfully applied the makeup, change her hairstyle and had several pairs of glasses. One of the victims, Jordanne Hawkins, the killer walked up on crutches and with his foot in a cast. Under the arm of a Ted was the suitcase that was very uncomfortable to wear. She herself offered help and brought the Luggage to the car of the killer. After this maniac hit her on the head and was taken to the woods, where he raped and beheaded.

Feature Bundy was what he tried to communicate with his victims, because learning some of the details of their lives, began to see them as people and doubt. This he differed from many of the serial killers that before committing a crime sought to establish with the victim close contact, socialize and learn about her life.

His future victims Ted always evoked sympathy

Bundy raped his victims before and after the murder, and in some cases performed with the bodies of various actions, such as washing their hair or put on makeup. According to Bundy, in the time of the murder from felt God who has been given the discretion to decide the fate of people. This maniac was not original thinking that was recognized many of the serial killer.

Quite unexpectedly for Bundy case has turned out quite not a symbolic punishment, he was sentenced to 15 years in prison. Almost immediately after the trial, he moved to Colorado, where they began to question him about the murder of one of the girls — Caroline Campbell.

Bundy realized that the ring is compressed and if the time for an unsuccessful kidnapping attempt left a good chance for a speedy release, then the killing will put an end to his life. Therefore, Bundy decided to escape. Under the pretext of reviewing legal literature, the killer got permission to visit a prison library. It was from there he made a daring escape through the roof of the building. This happened on December 30, 1976.

The trial of Ted in the state gave him no hope, as the killer in this state could only rely on the electric chair. Then Bundy, who had nothing more to lose, I calmed down and decided to stay a little star. He was happy to talk about their crimes and willingly gave interviews to the press.

Ted felt a real star

The investigation and the courts over a serial killer was following around the world and at the time Bundy was one of the most recognizable people in the world.

After that Bundy toured the state courts and in the literal sense of the word collected the death penalty. Move the offender was accompanied by excitement among the female half of the population — ladies wanted at least a glimpse of the beautiful, charismatic killer. While Ted was tried, he managed to marry his former colleague from the centre for the victims of violence, Carol Ann Boone. Two years after the first sentence Bundy's daughter was born.

While in prison, Bundy willingly advised investigators on issues catch other serial killers, but the sense of it was not enough, as Ted played more on the audience than say in the matter. 23 January 1989, the most bloodthirsty and elusive maniac USA gave his last interview, and a day later he was executed in the electric chair in Gainesville, Florida.
