My mother was in Bountiful Utah playing her cello at viewmont high. She left the building to go home and her bug wouldnt start. She didnt know what to do, there was 1 tan colored bug in the parking lot and 2 other cars. Ted bundy approached her with a cast on his arm and asked if she needed a ride home. just then 2 boys and a girl came out of the auditorium and walked over to my mom, my mother knew the girl, as they approached Ted said "well see ya" and walked back to his bug.One of the boys was a mechanic and looked at her engine and found that the spark plug cables had been removed. he said to my mom "I hate to say this but someone has sabotaged your car, i've fixed it, try to start it" it fired right up. My Grandpa (moms dad) wouldnt let her drive to Viewmont anymore and instead he would drop her off and pick her up. Less than 2 weeks later Debbi went missing.
I KNOW!!!!!! THE HEART BREAKING PAIN ALL THOSE PARENTS AND FAMILY MEMBERS FELT AND STILL DO. HOW DOES ONE GET OVER WHAT THIS SICKO MONSTER DONE TO ALL THOSE PRETTY YOUNG HAPPY GIRLS AND I LIKE HOW TED GOT HIS DEGREE TO BECOME A PSYCHOLOGIST IS TED FOR REAL???? UNFORTUNATELY YES!!!! RIP 🙏 ❤❤❤ ALL OF TEDS VICTIMS , HOW DID TED GET THAT BAD IN HIS HEAD TO THINK AND DO THESE EVIL ACTS?????? THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO LOLOVELINDA AUSTRALIA ❤❤❤
Yes. I think that was her only child and the coroner's office lost her body. That mother was destroyed. I think I read that in "The Stranger Beside me" many years ago. Sorry if the creator reads this but I can't watch the rest of the video after reading some comments. Monsters are real. Makes me wish for Old Testament judgement.
We have to always bear in mind , it was the 1970's . Forensics is still in its infancy . What have they got , fingerprints ? A few pubic hairs . I mean look at those composites . Scrappy at best . They couldn't even connect the dots when he murderred the sorority sisters . No wonder he got away with it for so long . That and a bungling prison system .
@@christar9527 That's what I noticed, Once he was asked a direct question he started looking everywhere else. Thats always a sign that theres some dishonesty.
You only say that because you know, now, what he was and what he did. No one, not even his friends or family had any indication of his psychology. If you had met/known him you would not have suspected either.
@@TwilightxKnight13 Body Language analysis is BS and is why "cold reading" was abandoned by the FBI around 1999. If it's so easy to spot liars based on Body Language along then why do people keep being deceived with Body Language?
Carol, I was born and raised in Western WA St., a 19 yr old student at Western WA State College when you suffered your attack. The fear among young women during that time was hard to witness. Thank you for helping to nail his coffin shut.
Carol, I don’t know if you’ll see this but I was living in Colorado when he was on the loose. I remember there was a newsflash for women to not go out after dark and only travel by twos. It’s amazing you survived his attack to tell your story and what a great story it is. Much love to you ❤️
This is the BEST Ted Bundy documentary of all time. It covers Ted's crimes the most thoroughly and accurately. Ive been following Ted's story since Lake Sammamish in 1974. Lots of books lots of docs on Ted reviewed and consumed and this is by far the best.
One case stands out to me: Georgeanne Hawkins. Bundy talked so casually about kidnapping and killing her and cutting her head off, how horrific. He tortured her for hours in the dark and then discarded her like garbage. This monster should have been caught so much sooner! Can anyone recall Ted's comment: "There is no way that killing me will bring all those people back" How ##% self-serving and evil does THAT sound???
Girls and women are not human in this animals mind, probably the same with men too but to a lesser degree. I was not surprised when it said that. All it cared about was how people could serve it and fit its needs, they are objects in its mind. It had a black soul, which thrived on death, not life. The creative source of life was gone I’d say.
Yep. You have to teach them peoples evil ways when the child is very young, and you have to play the “what if” game too. When my were young, shootings in restaurants was happening a lot, so I taught my kids where to sit, find exit doors, and pay attention to who’s coming in the door.
Once it happened to me I asked for lift I was in Goa, INDIA It was getting dark and I had to get back to the city from the beach I got lift and I was offered a seat between the driver and another male passenger, I knew in my heart something was wrong when the driver drove toward the industrial area , I remained calm, and expressed that can I sit by the window as I was feeling like vomit, and they obliged as soon as the car stopped, I got down and ran, luckily a local bus was just approaching and it stopped and it had many passengers I think I'm alive today because I listened to my heart.. Thank God
Taking a lift in the first place w/2 men in the vehicle seems like very risky behaviour. You may be luckier to be alive than you realize. Poor judgement has gotten many in terrible trouble.
So Gosh if only those girls that got in the car with Bundy had just asked to be let out, then they'd still be alive. Hmmm.........I wonder why they didn't just ask Ted not to kill them,. and let them go? Could have been so easy.
@@SkindoggiedogWTF ??? U 4 REAL? BROUGHT MURDER BY SOME MONSTER PSYCO NUT JOB ON THEMSELVES ? GIVE YOUR HEAD A SHAKE !! MAYBE YOU MENT THEY MADE POOR CHOICES ? TO TRUSTING ??? BROUGHT ON MURDER THEMSELVES OR WILL INLY HELPED SOMEONE OUT? NHAAA !!
I love that almost the entire sorority killing portion of the story was about the girls. Ted's name wasn't mentioned for the longest time and it was all about what they and the community went thru. This documentary did a very good job of balancing talking about Ted but also lingering heavily on the women and girls that died.
Then again, he had a brother and girlfriend and stepdaughter who apparently loved him. So he wasn't alone per se. So he had all the opportunity to be a normal man and upstanding man even. So nah, he was off despite the fortunate circumstances.
I read a book about his last victim, little Kimberly Leach and it was so, so sickening. A fireman had seen Bundy taking Kimberly from the school grounds, and then putting her in a van and driving off. He said she was crying and looked hestitant to go. He didn't interfere, because he thought it was a dad picking up his daughter from school after getting in trouble. Another lady later on was behind the van and saw Bundy screaming at someone who was on down on the floorboard. She didn't interfere either, because she didn't know he had a kidnapped child in the van. She just saw a man screaming at someone who was sitting on the floor of the van. I cannot imagine the horror that child went through at the hands of that mutant. He was a frightening looking individual with close-set dead eyes, bushy hair and a huge head. How those groupies could've liked him is beyond understanding. He was a violent pedophile who enjoyed making females suffer. Awful!!
He's still in hell ... There's no deliverance for him he will live in fear for all eternity .. he was judged by god and I believe god saw no repentance in Ted .. Ted couldn't escape judgement ! On earth and especially by God 🙏
Sadly the psychologist from Crazy Not Insane has been majorly discredited with her work in the Leticia Stauch case. (That is also another case with more twists and turns and very different and worthwhile watch) Dr Lewis sadly believes anyone who says they have multiple personalities. I will say in Ted's case she was actually correct. His accent and mannerisms changed often and he signed his grandfather's name Sam even in grade school and letters to his girlfriend from prison. @@Irjackson2287
People say this all the time after the fact, but it's probably just confirmation bias. You're already aware of his deeds and believe he is evil, so you interpret or find things to confirm it, such as "cold eyes" or "he looked creepy in his baby/childhood pictures." Not saying there aren't people who would've picked up a vibe, but I'd bet my sack that a lot, maybe most of the people that say they would've noticed would have had a conversation or worked with Bundy or Dahmer and been none the wiser.
I cannot get over how many breaks the prime suspect in a series of murders got . From getting a room with a view , not wearing handcuffs to being told "hey man , he's next door climbing around in the ceiling" Unbelievable
Right ? All the woman who were murdered due to their careless disregard for ho was dangerous he was is sickening . Those women would still be alive in Florida if authorities had done their jobs properly .
Only a world that massively undervalues women and girls could have failed to properly secure a prolific serial sex killer like Ted Bundy. That second and final prison escape was another totally outrageous security fail. It left two young women and a little girl brutally murdered, and three other women hospitalised, at a time the maniac had been identified as such, caught and incarcerated - and should have been under 24-7 surveillance, after his previous break. I don't agree with the death penalty, but for Bundy it was absolutely the right solution. Firstly there was no question about his guilt, and second he would have continued to try and break out to kill again - and may well, yet again, have succeeded. But even if he'd been properly secured, thank God Bundy didn't live through the internet age from the 'nineties onward, when the flourishing true crime genre would have made him a superstar. He would have loved his fame and the fan mail he'd have inevitably received behind bars. He would also have got a ton of interview requests, not only from the mass media but also from the new breed of true crime UA-cam channels and podcasts. For the sake of justice and the victims, I'm glad the narcissistic creep never got his ego fed like that, but instead was euthanized like the dangerous dog he was.
This has happened so many times. Seems like every serial killer I learn about has gotten away several times before they were finally taken down. Robert Hansen was another one that law enforcement seriously dropped the ball on.
Judge Cowart was brilliant in the way he handled this trial. It seemed at times that he was actually on Bundy's side and was giving him preferential treatment when all along he was handing this dope all the rope he needed to hang himself. He coerced Bundy into wrecking his defense by massaging his ego and encouraging him to do the stupid things that he did like that disastrous cross examination of the crime scene witness. Cowart encouraged Bundy to walk to the electric chair and sit down on his own. The Judge deserves a lot of credit for Bundy being dead.
That’s why the saying “ you get more bees with honey” always works. You never know how much information you can pull out of someone by beating them at their own game.
To be clear, Bundy was a monster and he was an idiot to defend himself in a capital crime trial. That being said, it is astounding that you would honor the judge who clearly manipulated the trial and encouraged the defendant to incriminate themself. I guess if the judge gets the result that YOU want, they did a good job.
@@6859ben I'm sorry for your loss of an opportunity to indulge in your blood lust. Thankfully you made it clear that the person you want to see suffer is a criminal, making it possible for us to tell the difference between you and him.
@@TwilightxKnight13 I've only seen snippets but it seems the judge was indeed at least formally/nominally responsible for letting the trial devolve into what contemporary observers have described as a "circus" with Bundy throwing tantrums, relishing the accounts of the crimes he was being accused of, acting out his (other) fantasies of power and grandeur as a defense attorney and going as far as to use the court room as a setting for a wedding proposal. In hindsight it's hard to say if this was strategy or incompetence on the judge's part, but either seems wrong, because it's not a judge's role to get the defendant convicted. That's the prosecutor's job.

I’ll always feel that Ted knew he’d be found guilty, but wanted to relive his crimes in the spot light and in front of thousands of people, and basically say “look upon my works” and show off what he’d done before going away forever.
not really they like to get away with their murders he represented him self is more truth to your question to get away with it not to be found guilty no...
A serial killer changed his modus operandi because he hurt his finger trying to kill one of the earlier victims (Anthony Allen Shore ) so yea. Big champs like Ramirez and DeAngelo fled the scene when women gave a tough fight right away or alerted people early on...
I think it’s so important that we keep these girls memories alive. Everyone remembers the perpetrator ( not just in this case) but the victims fade into non existence to all but those who knew and loved them. I think this is so wrong. I’ve made the effort to learn as much as I can about the victims. I listen to their families and especially their mothers. As a mother myself it breaks my heart. I do feel sad for Bundy’s mother as she seemed like a lovely woman who did her best. I also come from a single mum and I know how hard that job is. No mother wants or expects their child to grow up to become a serial killer
I agree . Bundy had so many known victims that it's hard to remember all their names , but I have made it a priority to never forget the victims of "Jack the Ripper" and the real name of the "Black Dahlia" .
With any person that does a horrible crime it’s devastating how the family of the individual is treated. We have to remember in MOST CASES the suspects family are also victims
I saw part of an interview with his mom recently and it was heartbreaking because even though he was in jail and convicted of at least some of his crimes she still wanted to hold on to her love for him and believe he was innocent and it was all just a mistake. I can’t imagine what it must have been like to be a single unwed mother in those times but she did the best she could and he was still a monster. His brother, who sounds exactly like him, has also had a very hard time and suffered because of what Ted did. It’s so sad that they were treated so badly because of something they had no knowledge of or control over. I always, well almost always, feel bad for the perpetrator’s families. They are usually victims also but not a lot of people see them that way.
Yeah, we need to keep the memories of the victims alive that’s for sure! & and i feel for Louise bundy too, that horrible pain she must have felt it’s just terrible. She seemed like a lovable person to me, it must have shocked her when she heard the tapes of her son’s confessions.
If all those girls that thought he was so cute and innocent got to see what that main investigator from the FSU murders saw when he told Bundy they found 12 yr old Kimberly Leeches body they would have changed their tune real quick. The guy said when he told Ted about the body being found that he transformed into that monster right front of his eyes physically changing said his whole facial features changed, his eyes turned black, his muscles morphed and were like pulsing, he started sweating profusely and stinking of body odor and went off screaming and yelling like a maniac because he knew he was fked. Said it terrified him more than anything in his whole life before or since to see him actually physically turn into that monster that very few people that lived to tell about it got to see. It freaked me out just the way he's said it. He said he thinks that was his only victim that even disgusted himself that as reverse and sick as he was he knew that one went too far, and it was ironic it was his last victim. He said Ted acted like there no way he could have done that to that kid oh not me not Ted, don't you dare accuse me of that. And right before he was executed he confessed to it. Most people who knew him and his cases think he had upwards of 100 victims and started killing long before 1974. I think everybody at some time in their lives should take a minute to give a prayer to those girls who's bodies were never found and that are still laying out there somewhere cold and alone to this day.
Bundy was busted-- he loved his handiwork. During the last interview when Kimberly's name came up he had to change the subject before he "discharged" into his jumpsuit pants. He was reliving it. +++++
If anything, doesn't that prove that Ted wasn't in control when he did those things. Whatever was wrong with Bundy it was strong enough to change his eyes, his muscles, his smell. Can a man really be expected to be able to fight off something so strong? I mean, I find it difficult to cool off over a simple argument at work. Imagine having to calm yourself down with the problems Ted had.
His own mother - what a victim! She must think every hour of every day - why? What did I do wrong? God love her. I feel some people are clearly born evil and the world has to accept that as a fact.
At least his time on death row was not pleasant. In the end, he died in terror which is what he inflicted on his victims. People who described the execution say he was in absolute fear. I'm bot a big believer in the death penalty but I would not lift a finger to help this man.
I really thought that i watched all Bundy Documntaries and thoroughly googled to convince myself for being a "Bundyologist". But then here on Carols channel i was once again taught better... Thank you!
I used to get offered rides all the time when I was young. At the age of 13, I had a man pull up to me and my friend and asked where the High school was. (It was summer vacation). When I tried to explain to him where it was, he said I’ll never find it, can you get in the car and show me? We ran. This was in the 70s.
In 1994, a week or two before I turned 15, a guy tried to get me to go in his car. My older brother had started working at a store in a brand new shopping center. The store he worked at was the only building completed, so it was pretty deserted in the early evening when my family visited. I was standing outside waiting for the rest of my family to come out when this guy with aviator sunglasses pulled up in a gold Trans Am. He had this whole 70s look about him. I was quite a few feet away from him, kinda of in front of his car standing on the curb. He asked for directions to the interstate. We didn’t even live near the area, so I just told him I didn’t know. He was just so insistent right off the bat. He went from asking directions to immediately telling me I needed to get in his car and show him the way. That’s what I remember most, he just repeated that over and over. He was getting more and more furious and yelling at me to get in the car and banging his fists on the steering wheel. He was really starting to make a scene. I didn’t think I had time to run back to the store entrance because he was closer to it than me and I think the store exit was one of those where you would have to wait for someone to come out first. Luckily, this older couple taking an evening walk through the shopping center showed up right then and he finally took off. They were so nice and made sure I was OK. This happened the same year I bought Ann Rule’s book, but I hadn’t read it yet. I’m 42 now and I just bought pepper spray for the first time a few years ago. Even being 5’11” I though it would be good to have.
Had the sane thing happen to myself in the 70s although he stalked me for 2 weeks then just disappeared. I should have reported it to police but it was the 70s I thought he was just another crazy,he looked like Ted and drove a VW
I feel like society praises Bundy, and it disgusts me, but it is such a double-edged sword because we NEED the education. It's terrifying. We really need to spotlight the victims. Thank you, Carol, for your courage and for all you do.
Idk....I think mostly like housewife type women (the gossipy kind) or some more fervent feminists would be the only viewers interested in the victims for more than just one go-round.
@@ValleyoftheRogue I don't think many Younger people can fathom just how much easier it was to get away with almost any Crime the further you go back in History for the most part even while making plenty of small mistakes along the way.. With technology advances he would have absolutely got found out sooner then later with the way he was doing things regardless like you said. I see people still talking about Bonnie and Clyde these days but realistically they would have probably got caught immediately in Current times and nobody would have a clue who they even are. Ted was clearly an absolute Monster and fairly intelligent but he's nothing compared to the many, many Serial Killers that were/still are never caught.. Those are the people that scare the hell out of me personally because they can literally be anyone.
I can’t watch this doc, or anything about this man, I’m just a man, every time I hear of a man killing some one. Then or yesterday I become saddened, a your women and her boyfriend, UA-cam-er they had an argument the police put the girl in there car. But decided to let her go back with her boyfriend, you’ve heard of this girl being killed by her boyfriend. It’s so sick why do some men feel the need to kill a beautiful person of mind and sole. I was 19 in the time of this man it’s was one of the biggest stories. The there was the Tate kill by Manson. Some of Manson’s women sat on 16 street during his trial here in California protesting his arrest. He was a sick-O too.
"A man who is his own lawyer has a fool for a client." - English proverb Ted Bundy was many things - intelligent, good-looking, personable. He was also manipulative, arrogant, cruel, narcissistic and evil. He was the devil incarnate. The world rid itself of a burgeoning malignancy that January morning in 1989. Thank you for uploading this outstanding documentary. People really need to know about the potential malevolence out there in order to survive.
Right, short explanation... he's a psychopath. They can't be fixed. It sickens me to even try to imagine what this monster was like when he was in a frenzy like in the sorority house!!!
@@polarbearsrus6980 Yes, he was quite the psychopath. If you think about how he behaved in the sorority house you'll have nightmares. Just be happy you're still here and he's not.
@@polarbearsrus6980 a great portion of lawyers are psychopaths in the same list as CEOs and some other professions they have some of the highest percentages of psychopaths in the field of law.
He looked exactly like his mother. I'm so glad you escaped. I lived in Colorado when he escaped from jail on 1977. There was a huge announcement warning women to not travel alone and stay in after dark. I was 21 years old.
Got to say, this is one of the very best docs like this. And I'm a little obsessed with documentaries so it's not easy to impress me. Yall have done a great job
@@sc4112 - 100%, nail on the head. I have first hand insight on this through a lifetime's experience of being cast as the 'devil' second brother to the grotesque effigy of a man raised on the conceited whim of rabid smotherhood. Smother departed shortly before last Christmas, mission accomplished: i.e. brother never graduated from emotional kindergarten. She was good for a £50 cash gift at Christmas so even there she managed to begrudge me right to the end. Father was no better: i.e. similarly emotionally stunted oldest sister. Although she at least took a proactive role in her own development and didn't end up (as yet) a feeble 250lb incontinent diabetic. Yet she was still widdling the bed well into her teens and on one occasion tried to frame your hero for her filthy abomination by switching sheets before Smother did the laundry round. Smother's wrongteous indignation was brought down to earth upon rare instance of inspection beyond the veneer. The mattress, my dear Watson. Sis figuratively reprised the same party trick well into middle age by accounting for the wreck of father's lent car as vigorous opening of the passenger door by your faithful correspondent. I wouldn't be at all surprised if she crashed the car on purpose to distract from ruined upholstery. But my brother is 10X worse. Anyway, yes, absolutely as you say. My instinctive reaction to Bundy's mother while watching this was - you could maybe reflect a little deeper on your influence.
@@sc4112 Absolutely. Ted had a juvenile criminal record--so she knew and lied when she spoke of his idyllic boyhood days. Bundy's mother taught him how to compartmentalize. The mother of torture-murderer Dean Corll was once approached by a teen boy who work in her candy company. The boy told her that her son Dean had tried to molest him--Corll's mother fired the teen on the spot. These killers are born with a pre-disposition towards violence and cruelty and then their environment refines it. We now know that Ted was not the product of incest but I suspect that Louise may have been raped by Ted's biological father, thus all of the secrecy and lies.
This is why I don't listen to my head, I listen to my gut. People can't change their energy, and you can feel that. Even when it makes no sense and everything/everyone screams that you are wrong, if it feels wrong IT IS WRONG. each time I listened to what God gave me, my instincts, it was correct. Everytime I didn't was a huge mistake
I didn't know he ate hamburgers after Lake Sammamish and didn't know Denise Naslund's mom was tortured yet again by being asked to write a letter to save Ted's life. It's striking how much trauma one person can inflict. It starts with trauma changing a brain, which is passed on organically or by people spreading it through society. There are a ton of variables, but whether trauma is internalized or externalized, it's the most long standing and most dangerous pandemic upon the human race IMO. God bless every soul who has been affected by it generationally or directly.
Eleanor Naslund was tortured more than just that. The police lost Denise's remain's aswell. Her Mother kept that pink coffin she purchased for Denise for 14 years. It was finally buried with a letter in It from her Mom and some of her personel items. It's very very sad how much devastation one person inflicted on so many lives.
They never put enough light on the victims,only the cowardly Serial killers. Movies,endless books,interviews. As if killing an unsuspecting victim is some kind of difficult,noble act. These offenders need to be given to the victims surviving family members,to be disposed of any way the families wish. Be it wood chipper,power tools,fish scaling knifes and a bucket of salt..
thats a good point. They dont garner the same notoriety though and you know why because nobody's says whoaaaa did you here about that lady who was on the bus reading her book, it not sensational.. What you hear is "did you hear about jeffrey dahmer he ate people and tried to make living zombies@@kevinbarry4325
I worked with Georgians mother. It was a very sad period in the office. I was only 17 at this time. I also use to hitchhike and look back at how lucky I was in not encountering him
The whole business of Ted Bundy blaming pron is ridiculous! It brings back flashbacks of being a teenager, and private school teachers saying, essentially, "Stay away from pron or you will become a serial killer like Ted Bundy". Of course, Dr Dobson bought it hook, line, and sinker; NO surprise there!
He should’ve apologized to the victims families instead of “warning parents” about porn. I understand his attorneys were still trying to get a last minute stay when he was doing this interview but at least apologize to the families of the ones he confessed too.
Its not totally without merit . Porn is known to be dangerous for psychopaths . Now , if we could identify them all so that we could keep it out of their paws
It's still hard to understand this brutal evil wolf in sheep's clothing. Usually the wolf let's the mask slip but he never did. That's the most frightening.
What is wrong with the cops in Aspen ? Prisoners were saying he is crawling around in the ceiling after they captured Ted and the cops did nothing .WTF ?
I really felt sorry for her too, she had been an associate of his for years and felt like Ann Rule did (at first) that he was innocent and her friend. It must have been horrible for her for years afterward, I hope she has had a good life I really do.
I can see that he could have fooled a lot of people . But theres no way in hell I would have got in the car with him and if he asked me to help and he had crutches , I would've become suspicious . But then I wouldn't have been his type
@chateaupig826 Lol, me too. Im about 4'11" and physically disabled. (I have a paralyzed arm). So *why* would you be asking someone like me whos really small and has a bad arm for physical help? That woulda set off every alarm bell I have. I was born in WA in the late 70s, grew up less than 20 miles from where the remains were found. Bundys shadow was long over the area back then. I remember being young and my dad as delicately as he could telling me about him and what he did, when he was finally sent to final judgement. I was told never go with a man that approaches you when you are alone minding your own business, even if he looks nice, seems friendly or appears to need help. He could be a Ted Bundy.
Hey the guy who was accused of kidnapping and is suspected of various murders is in the library. Let's open the window to let a nice breeze in. What could go wrong? We are on the 2nd floor so that seems safe.
These young ladies were targeted,stalked,manipulated,tortured and slaughtered. I am so sorry that these mothers and fathers will never see there dear daughters again.
What a guy and a shame of mankind. They did get him in the end. A great programme and details I did not know about. Thank you and no commercial breaks.
The reason why Carol DeRonch got away is because she fought him. Ted said she was the only one who did. He’d marvel why, when he’d tell them if they cooperated he’d let them go, why the girls believed that. What a twisted sadistic thing to do. If anyone ever finds themselves in a situation of an attack, FIGHT. Do NOT go willingly, DO NOT go to the next location, that’s when they’ll do their worst. Bundy is far from the last one to do this. It happens every day somewhere in the US, someone is attacked. That includes boys. Educate kids YOUNG. Take kids to self defense classes. The best way to stay protected is through education and FIGHTING. I know from personal experience. At 14yrs old I was attacked by a complete stranger. In broad daylight. In the nice suburbs. He almost raped and killed me. Almost, because I FOUGHT. I got away severely beaten, but I’m happy to say he wasn’t expecting the fist fight and hard time I gave him. He under estimated the little girl, 5”1, and 105lb. He was never caught. That’s haunted me all these years later. This was in 1977, the years Bundy was around. I knew he’d never stop. I’ve wondered for years how many girls he ruined before he was stopped. Take your kids and grandkids to self defense classes. Prepare your loved ones to be alert just in case. RIP all the girls Bundy ruined. I hope Bundy is in hell.
Stop blaming women for the actions of a murderer. You know a number of his victims were abducted/killed in their sleep, right? You know that he abducted at least two victims in broad daylight on the same day, in front of other people, right? How does your useless "advice" help women? It is not women's responsibility not to be victimized, understand? The onus lies squarely on the perps. BTW, if women want to be safe, they need to refuse to date, live with, or marry men. It is those "good" men who pose the greatest risk to women's lives and safety, not strangers. Too bad what happened to you, but don't assume the situation is the same with the great majority of women.
A psychiatrist pointed out at the time that all the girls resembled the beautiful, athletic, dark haired middle class girl who turned him down age 17. She stated he tracked her down years later & made a point of turning down her offer of meeting up.
He actually got back together with her and dated her so that he could basically ghost her as a sort of revenge! If I am remembering correctly he asked her to marry him, she said yes, then he just disappeared because he was so mad that she’d dumped him before because she didn’t feel he was going anywhere and thought he had no direction. Once he was in college and all that he tracked her down just so he could hurt her back. When she called him to find out wtf happened and why he’d just sort of disappeared on her he acted like he didn’t know who she was or what she was talking about. So Petty!
Good point. All of that was described in detail in Ann Rule’s book. Interestingly, that complex revenge on Diane didn’t bring Ted the relief he was looking for, as he decided to abduct more and more girls that looked like her. Some psychologist said that he kept “killing Diane over and over again and couldn’t get enough”, all bc (in his mind) she had humiliated him
Ann Rule, a former Seattle policewoman wrote a book titled "The Stranger Beside Me" about Ted Bundy. She has written at least 30 books about crimes across the USA. She passed away in 2015 in Washington state.
You are correct about that! Ann Rule mentioned it in her book about Ted Bundy. I have all of her books because she was the "best" in my mind with her books! @@pauladouglas9891
Nope, she couldn't become a cop due to her nearsightedness. She worked in Law enforcement in various capacities and eventually became a true crime author.
If i had been related to one of the sorority girls, I would have sued the jail which permitted the monster to escape. Prisoners told the guards that they could hear Bundy going through the hatch into the ceiling area. WTF! Those Girls didn’t need to die and the other ones didn’t need to be injured.
I've heard so many documentaries but this was the first time I got to hear how unbelievably difficult it was to prosecute him. Kudos to the law enforcement
This documentation deserves recognition for it's historical record, I was a freshman in high-school in January 1978 and remember all this. Unbelievably slick tongue demon. His eyes are that of a predator looking for a weaker than himself victim, the eyes are definitely a clear killer. I pray we find these demons everywhere they are.
I agree, this is a stellar documentary. I remember when it happened all too well. I was a 19-year-old, with long, dark hair living in Alachua, Florida. My niece went to school with Kimmy Leach.
I have a question for Mrs. Bundy, why did she lie to her "much beloved" son about who his mother was? He was told his mother was his sister all his life but he found his birth certificate and learned the truth. That has to be damaging.
"Ted, have you ever physically harmed anyone?"......... (ted) "Physically harmed anyone?.. no" Looks at camera with what is the definition of a serial killer.
No. He didn't "harm" them. Grab a thesaurus and take a pick. These fckrs are so slimy. Asked if he had anything on his conscience to confess, one said, with a grin-- "No. cuz none of it bothered my conscience"
The news media spun his story shamefully. He was a near-30 year old man with no career, no marriage, no kids, driving around in a ratty VW bug tricking good women into his sick world. I don't know if times have changed or what, but none of his interviews sounded like an "articulate, calm" person to me. He always talked like a psychopath.
You can see the evil in his eyes especially when when he looked like he was on a rampage, and when he’s sly smiling and referring to a second person to divert the issues of himself. What a master of evil.
Thank you for this...haven't seen it in years. I live on the pacific northwest now...whenever I drive out of town I look at the huge trees and jagged, steep and nearly impenetrable woods along the road and I am amazed that they ever can find anyone, living or...not. Seriously no end to the rugged wilderness up here.
Ann Rule, a very good writer, wrote a book called "The Stranger Beside Me" which was also made into a movie of the same title. Before Ted Bundy went on his killing spree he and Ann worked together on a crisis line helping anyone who was struggling. They got along fine and it was difficult for Ann to come to terms with what Ted was accused of doing. Don't get me wrong, she was a very intelligent woman. Once she attended one of his court hearings, she realized he was indeed guilty of killing many young woman. I'd say Ann Rule is one of the best, if not the best, sources if you have any interest in learning about Ted Bundy.
This is what makes this case so depressing. A lot of people who knew him or thought they did had to live with guilt all these years because of thinking of what they could have done to prevent it or were there signs something was amiss. It wasn't their fault.
The girl that survived his grips in that car , she heard his voice , after her testimony in court It must have sent a chill into every officer in that room . The grip of the law now had it’s control , unraveling his smile to show the composure behind the maniac tendencies. Justice finally secured him then made the judgement final with 12 jurors listening over the gruesome evidence.
Hearing from their family and close friends really makes it more real doesn’t it? When I am researching a case like this I’m usually looking at the perpetrator, their history and background mostly, and trying to understand something that is incomprehensible. The perpetrator becomes almost just a case study, it’s the only way I can remove myself from it if that makes any sense? Focusing on the victims and hearing from the families makes it all real again. I had goosebumps and tears through a good bit of this video for sure!
When I think of the times I stupidly went off with strange men when I was 18, hitchhiking and on motorcycle adventures, I could have been killed ten times over! 😮😞😥🙄😟
Same for me, as a teenager I hitch-hiked alone sometimes and one summer 'ran away' to go with 2 guys I'd just met the day before, on a cross country road trip, I wanted a summer adventure... how STUPID was that ! Luckily they weren't bad guys, but still. My poor mom said I must have had a guardian angel on my shoulder, now I think so too
Same here, it was a different. Era.....we didn't know to be vigilant like that....now I watch everything and everyone. Wolves in sheep's clothing can be anyone.Never really know what deep down Inside of aomeone.
Miss Carol, thank you for uploading this informative documentary. I watch true crime bc I want to learn how to protect myself, loved ones and strangers alike. I just want to say to you, Miss Carol, I’m so grateful that you’re alive! I’m so proud of you for standing up to this monster in court! I can’t begin to imagine what you’ve endured, and I won’t pretend to. I just want you to know that you’re appreciated, loved, prayed for and looked up to by many women & ppl in general. May God continue to keep and bless you and your family, Miss Carol, in Jesus’ name. 🙏🏾🥰♥️🤗🙏🏾
I am 81 now, but lived in NYC in my early twenties, alone and w/o any family. I used my gut feeling and got hang of that NYC way of not looking, but at the same time seeing everything. Never went to Bars or anywhere alone at night time. However, did ride the subway at times when I had to work late, but was always careful and in well lighted areas. I have travelled the world over three times, and still used that old NYC feeling and my gut and it has always saved me from danger. Thank you God for always protecting me and for giving me a very unique guardian angel, always forever thankful and humbled by your Greatness.
@@camlacasse3760I guess God has his favorites. What's up with that? God spared you. It was luck kiddo. When 100s of kids are found dead by the hands of a psychopath, where was God, Jesus? You think this is true? smh.
@lindadavis5668 God gives man freewill, even to do evil. If we call on Him, He will protect. We also have to remember we are in a fallen world & need to do our part in preserving our lives. As far as those children who have been trafficked & killed, Jesus said it would be better for a person to tie a millstone around their neck & throw themselves into the sea then to harm His little ones. There is a special place in hell for people like that & it is worse then you can imagine & there is no escape.
i lived in Renton Wa. and was going thru a divorce. I called Seattle Crisis Clinic at times and spoke to a nice man several times. i had no car but needed to work three jobs to purchase one, so i was hitch- hiking, with my long dark hair, miniskirt, and a nice looking man stopped and asked if i needed a ride. He had opened the VWs passenger door and my hands were on the car door and roof, when i realized the door handle was gone!! If i got in, i wasnt getting out so i declined a ride from Ted!!
I remember reading a creepy story Ted Buddy’s aunt said, she woke up one morning with sharp knives placed in bed all pointed at her. She looked up and there was 4 year old Ted with a huge smile staring at her. From that moment on she knew something was not right with him.
I wonder if one of those women he killed hit him in the mouth that cracked his front teeth like that somebody hit him and I'd like to know who they deserve recognition
My friend was in the same college class in the state of Washington as old Bundy. She said he always came to class in a business suit and would just stare and stare at her and other women. He asked her out, but she had other plans. I'm so glad she didn't date him, as she could have ended up dead, like so many other women did at the hands of Bundy.
So says somebody who never met him or encountered him on the street, probably wasn't born when the killings happened, and from the vantage point of fifty years later.
Shiiit. He looks like Frankenstein to me. If Bundy was a movie star, he would be that creature in Jeepers Creepers. Stalking his prey in human disguise.
I am a guy, an athlete, used to be a collegiate basketball player, point guard, about 6’1”, walking at night late at campus, I did not have a car back then, the bus 🚌 was beyond being late and I called, it’s canceled. I walked a lone in the dark. It was over 35 mins walk back to my apartment. Strangely , several cars offered me a ride. I was not scared at all Two of them were girls. I said “ I am good. Thx”. Lol I just didn’t trust anyone.
The thing about the hairstyles is, almost all the girls had hair like that, so that shouldn’t ever have been considered anything unusual. I think the fact that he liked them skinny, and petite says more. They would put up less of a fight , and he could easily control them.
Not only did he kill so many women, by strangulation or blunt force trauma, etc.. but he was also feeding off of the victims' fear in their final moments, as he sexually assaulted them. Even visited their dead bodies to relive those moments or whatever... I mean, this guy was a real jerk!
Idiota ?? Era un perverso che faceva sesso coi cadaveri disotterrati, uccideva a.morsi e lo faceva con gusto.Era pericolosissimo, psicopatico e perverso,altro che idiota.
Excellent doc, thank you for sharing. I lived in Jacksonville in 89 when he was executed, later we lived in WASHINGTON and the terror that was Ted Bundy was constantly around you. One thing that I have learned is that "monsters" look like you and I. Like many of the experts, I don't think we'll ever know the truth about the number of victims he really had. I am a true crime junkie and I have seen and read quite a bit about Ted, this was very detailed and had some information I had never heard. To all women... please stay safe and always, always be aware and careful!
Please stop with the nonsense women have to be "careful" while letting predatory, even murderous, men off the hook. The responsibility for these murders rests solely on Bundy. Remember, he killed women when they slept. You act like it was all the victims' fault for what HE did.
I remember being a kid, and a car had pulled up infront of our house, the gentlemen in the car, ask me did I want some candy, being a kids I said yes, and walk towards the car. Unbeknown to be my mother had came out the house door, before I could reached the sidewalk I got smack upside the head. I spun around and looked at her, she stated 'get your arse in the house, you don't talk to strangers'. Fast-forward 20+ years my children and their friend and I were walking home. They were about 3 houses ahead of me in distance. A van passed me and stopped near them, the kids were approaching the van. I ran towards them, no smacking, but got in the middle of them and the van. I was sithing. Profanity came out first. The driver and old man, stated he was just asking for direction. My reply 'No MF, you aint asking kids for direction, when you just passed up a whole adult, me'. If he'd had a gun, it would have been a clear shot. But he was going to have to un-alive me for mine. The van sped a way. My kids looked puzzled, and embarrassed. I explain to them my reaction. I didn't have a cellphone at the time, but when I got home I called the police. I remember all the FKs of the past, Bundy, Rameriz, Hillside, and others. I couldn't let that happen to my kids. Talk to you kids people..
That thumbnail pic is the true monster inside; read a book about him when I was 22. Scared me to death, when my car broke down & I started walking to my kids daycare, an off duty cop gave me a ride but I checked his inside door handles & ID before I got in. He said “you’re a smart lady”, truthfully I was terrified. I feel so sorry for these young women & their families. Tragic.
One time I went off the road and into a field on a Texas back road. I took off my rings, watch, everything of any value. Locked my doors and pretended I was talking to someone. I waved pass anyone who came into the field and they left. Then a truck came and I saw it had writing on the side. I took a glance and saw it was the forest department's truck and so I did lower my window half way and told him to simply call 911 and rolled my window back u and waited for LE to arrive. Never leave your vehicle is Rule #1. Rule #2 is no good if you forget Rule #1.
@@camlacasse3760 Good tips; this was in the days before 911 & cell phones etc … I was literally stranded. Left my car w/flashers on; on a two lane road~bridge where engine had died & started the short walk. I was very lucky 😊
Nobody should ever have this happen to them ever under any circumstances but it really strikes me how many of Bundy's victims really were nice girls I mean really nice. I can't imagine harming someone that is being nice I mean I couldn't imagine harming someone like this at all but I wouldn't even want to be rude to someone like that. It takes evil to hurt a kind nice person. And these girls really seemed to be by all accounts nice girls that treated other people well that we're just decent people it's very sad.
Just the way he targeted people tells me they were all kind, giving, helpful people. That’s what he used to lure them, their kindness. Just makes it that much more sick!
By all accounts he definitely was the best son in the world to her. He gave her no problems, was a good brother to his siblings, was responsible for his future endeavors like school and finding a job, volunteered to help people, and was an affectionate son. To her and those he knew he truly was a good person. They just didn’t know his dark side; he said in an interview that he kept It well hidden and “compartmentalized”.
So many things must have been wrong within that mother-son relationship itself, with him being told that his mother was his sister. I was watching Anne Rule's interview and she said Ted's maternal grandfather might actually have been his bio. father. So the mother being his sister might have been true. Also, there's one type of criminals who hold their parents in an extremely high regard for no apparent reason, even though they may have been neglected / abused. And then there's another type where the criminals acknowledge the abuse to themselves and eventually kill the parent sometimes. Ted fell in first category. Everything in his life was an extension of his self image, and wanted that to be absolutely spotless.
From what I’ve seen your survival instincts kicked in and your strength and will to live saved your life I’m so sorry the other families have no closure but you are a hero Carol I hope if I’m ever confronted with that kind of horror I can stay composed enough to outsmart the evil in this world
Any TV show that is in parts should tell you at what time stamp you can fast forward or go away and come back to avoid the countless recaps. People are watching the show, they're invested and are probably paying attention to know what came moments ago. No one reasonably starts watching at part 4, expecting to get the gist of the 3 previous parts in a massive recap. I wish they would stop repeating info as if we're not paying attention. EVERY show on the planet does this, recapping even after a 2 minute ad break. I have spent so much time fast forwarding this trying to see the events in some sort of chronological logic. Probably 30+ minutes of this is recap. I am grateful the ads are cut though and I am glad to see such a complete documentary in one place so I am glad it's here.
It’s because it was ok television and they did that/do that for people who have just tuned into the channel. Especially in the days before DVR and all the other similar options available now.
My mother lived down the street from Anne Rule growing up, she also went to high school with Brenda Ball, and she has a friend who knows Carol Da Ronch. I also have relatives that live not far from Lake Sammamish.
Like all of the girls Carol was small/petite….But wow was she mighty! She certainly surprised pervert/killer Ted. She survived with all of her might. Such a horrible person Ted was….So sad for the victims and their friends and families…

@@maddiebalderas208 Ha! Nice one... Her brother's toy bear came to life, and now whenever it's raining he calls out "Ted ... buddy," and they sing the Thunder Buddies song. Gives her the chills every time...
@@catherinelw9365How was my comment mean? Clearly she was in denial because she did not want to believe or accept her son was a monster and that he committed these atrocities. She believed in his innocence even though he was so obliviously guilty. I'm not degrading or belittling her.
My mother was in Bountiful Utah playing her cello at viewmont high. She left the building to go home and her bug wouldnt start. She didnt know what to do, there was 1 tan colored bug in the parking lot and 2 other cars. Ted bundy approached her with a cast on his arm and asked if she needed a ride home. just then 2 boys and a girl came out of the auditorium and walked over to my mom, my mother knew the girl, as they approached Ted said "well see ya" and walked back to his bug.One of the boys was a mechanic and looked at her engine and found that the spark plug cables had been removed. he said to my mom "I hate to say this but someone has sabotaged your car, i've fixed it, try to start it" it fired right up. My Grandpa (moms dad) wouldnt let her drive to Viewmont anymore and instead he would drop her off and pick her up. Less than 2 weeks later Debbi went missing.

He was scarily convincing when he talked but his eyes told a different story. Brilliant documentary
We have to always bear in mind , it was the 1970's .
Forensics is still in its infancy . What have they got , fingerprints ? A few pubic hairs . I mean look at those composites . Scrappy at best .
They couldn't even connect the dots when he murderred the sorority sisters . No wonder he got away with it for so long .
That and a bungling prison system .
His eyes darted all over the place. It reflected his mental state.
@@christar9527 That's what I noticed, Once he was asked a direct question he started looking everywhere else. Thats always a sign that theres some dishonesty.
You only say that because you know, now, what he was and what he did. No one, not even his friends or family had any indication of his psychology. If you had met/known him you would not have suspected either.
@@TwilightxKnight13 Body Language analysis is BS and is why "cold reading" was abandoned by the FBI around 1999. If it's so easy to spot liars based on Body Language along then why do people keep being deceived with Body Language?
Carol, I was born and raised in Western WA St., a 19 yr old student at Western WA State College when you suffered your attack. The fear among young women during that time was hard to witness. Thank you for helping to nail his coffin shut.
Two victims there too.
Carol, I don’t know if you’ll see this but I was living in Colorado when he was on the loose. I remember there was a newsflash for women to not go out after dark and only travel by twos. It’s amazing you survived his attack to tell your story and what a great story it is. Much love to you ❤️
This is the BEST Ted Bundy documentary of all time. It covers Ted's crimes the most thoroughly and accurately. Ive been following Ted's story since Lake Sammamish in 1974. Lots of books lots of docs on Ted reviewed and consumed and this is by far the best.
No it’s not, and the gross guy narrating is absolutely abhorrent. Try doing some actual research instead of watching only one generic show.
itsa mish mash
M9.@@kevinhalligan5283
Read "The Last Living Witness".
One case stands out to me: Georgeanne Hawkins. Bundy talked so casually about kidnapping and killing her and cutting her head off, how horrific. He tortured her for hours in the dark and then discarded her like garbage. This monster should have been caught so much sooner! Can anyone recall Ted's comment: "There is no way that killing me will bring all those people back"
How ##% self-serving and evil does THAT sound???
Girls and women are not human in this animals mind, probably the same with men too but to a lesser degree. I was not surprised when it said that. All it cared about was how people could serve it and fit its needs, they are objects in its mind. It had a black soul, which thrived on death, not life. The creative source of life was gone I’d say.
psycopath and a malignant narcisist, he can never believe he is wrong. The only life that means anything to him is his own.
Isn't that weird! For some reason, Georgeann is one of the women I always think about too!..🤘
You're right to refer to Bundy as an "it." This monster probably forfeited his status as a human being as a teenager, from what I've read about it.
He was a psychopath!!!
What did you think he would do?
Cry?
I’m sure docs like this have saved countless lives.
Teach your children well.
Crosby, Stills & Nash!
Yep. You have to teach them peoples evil ways when the child is very young, and you have to play the “what if” game too. When my were young, shootings in restaurants was happening a lot, so I taught my kids where to sit, find exit doors, and pay attention to who’s coming in the door.
Once it happened to me I asked for lift I was in Goa, INDIA
It was getting dark and I had to get back to the city from the beach
I got lift and I was offered a seat between the driver and another male passenger, I knew in my heart something was wrong when the driver drove toward the industrial area , I remained calm, and expressed that can I sit by the window as I was feeling like vomit, and they obliged as soon as the car stopped, I got down and ran, luckily a local bus was just approaching and it stopped and it had many passengers
I think I'm alive today because I listened to my heart.. Thank God
Come on Gia India? Anyone who's travelled the world knows Goa it doesn't correlate to this demon.
Taking a lift in the first place w/2 men in the vehicle seems like very risky behaviour. You may be luckier to be alive than you realize. Poor judgement has gotten many in terrible trouble.
So Gosh if only those girls that got in the car with Bundy had just asked to be let out, then they'd still be alive. Hmmm.........I wonder why they didn't just ask Ted not to kill them,. and let them go? Could have been so easy.

I love that almost the entire sorority killing portion of the story was about the girls. Ted's name wasn't mentioned for the longest time and it was all about what they and the community went thru. This documentary did a very good job of balancing talking about Ted but also lingering heavily on the women and girls that died.
Then again, he had a brother and girlfriend and stepdaughter who apparently loved him. So he wasn't alone per se. So he had all the opportunity to be a normal man and upstanding man even. So nah, he was off despite the fortunate circumstances.
I think the same. This poor women and girls are more than Pictures and victims. They are belovend Childs, Sisters and Family members. RIP 🙏
Precisely

I read a book about his last victim, little Kimberly Leach and it was so, so sickening. A fireman had seen Bundy taking Kimberly from the school grounds, and then putting her in a van and driving off. He said she was crying and looked hestitant to go. He didn't interfere, because he thought it was a dad picking up his daughter from school after getting in trouble. Another lady later on was behind the van and saw Bundy screaming at someone who was on down on the floorboard. She didn't interfere either, because she didn't know he had a kidnapped child in the van. She just saw a man screaming at someone who was sitting on the floor of the van. I cannot imagine the horror that child went through at the hands of that mutant. He was a frightening looking individual with close-set dead eyes, bushy hair and a huge head. How those groupies could've liked him is beyond understanding. He was a violent pedophile who enjoyed making females suffer. Awful!!
He was so mean 😢 big meanie.
Very well said!
White people and their good looks !!Phew
He's still in hell ... There's no deliverance for him he will live in fear for all eternity .. he was judged by god and I believe god saw no repentance in Ted ..
Ted couldn't escape judgement !
On earth and especially by God 🙏
Name of the book pls?
this is one of the best documentaries about Bundy that I’ve seen
HBO has a special crazy not insane it is very disturbing I won’t spoil it but watch how it ends
Sadly the psychologist from Crazy Not Insane has been majorly discredited with her work in the Leticia Stauch case.
(That is also another case with more twists and turns and very different and worthwhile watch)
Dr Lewis sadly believes anyone who says they have multiple personalities.
I will say in Ted's case she was actually correct.
His accent and mannerisms changed often and he signed his grandfather's name Sam even in grade school and letters to his girlfriend from prison. @@Irjackson2287
No matter that he was a chameleon, or a nice intelligent guy, whichever one thinks, his eyes were always telling. Cold eyes.
True
Dead eyes , like a doll's
Not really.
People say this all the time after the fact, but it's probably just confirmation bias. You're already aware of his deeds and believe he is evil, so you interpret or find things to confirm it, such as "cold eyes" or "he looked creepy in his baby/childhood pictures." Not saying there aren't people who would've picked up a vibe, but I'd bet my sack that a lot, maybe most of the people that say they would've noticed would have had a conversation or worked with Bundy or Dahmer and been none the wiser.
True cold
I cannot get over how many breaks the prime suspect in a series of murders got .
From getting a room with a view , not wearing handcuffs to being told "hey man , he's next door climbing around in the ceiling" Unbelievable
Right ? All the woman who were murdered due to their careless disregard for ho was dangerous he was is sickening . Those women would still be alive in Florida if authorities had done their jobs properly .
The cops missed a box of incriminating photos when searching his place.
Only a world that massively undervalues women and girls could have failed to properly secure a prolific serial sex killer like Ted Bundy. That second and final prison escape was another totally outrageous security fail. It left two young women and a little girl brutally murdered, and three other women hospitalised, at a time the maniac had been identified as such, caught and incarcerated - and should have been under 24-7 surveillance, after his previous break.
I don't agree with the death penalty, but for Bundy it was absolutely the right solution. Firstly there was no question about his guilt, and second he would have continued to try and break out to kill again - and may well, yet again, have succeeded.
But even if he'd been properly secured, thank God Bundy didn't live through the internet age from the 'nineties onward, when the flourishing true crime genre would have made him a superstar. He would have loved his fame and the fan mail he'd have inevitably received behind bars. He would also have got a ton of interview requests, not only from the mass media but also from the new breed of true crime UA-cam channels and podcasts.
For the sake of justice and the victims, I'm glad the narcissistic creep never got his ego fed like that, but instead was euthanized like the dangerous dog he was.
This has happened so many times. Seems like every serial killer I learn about has gotten away several times before they were finally taken down. Robert Hansen was another one that law enforcement seriously dropped the ball on.
No one wants to acknowledge the elephant in the room.
Judge Cowart was brilliant in the way he handled this trial. It seemed at times that he was actually on Bundy's side and was giving him preferential treatment when all along he was handing this dope all the rope he needed to hang himself. He coerced Bundy into wrecking his defense by massaging his ego and encouraging him to do the stupid things that he did like that disastrous cross examination of the crime scene witness. Cowart encouraged Bundy to walk to the electric chair and sit down on his own. The Judge deserves a lot of credit for Bundy being dead.
That’s why the saying “ you get more bees with honey” always works. You never know how much information you can pull out of someone by beating them at their own game.
Just a shame Bundy went out the easy way unlike all the victims
To be clear, Bundy was a monster and he was an idiot to defend himself in a capital crime trial. That being said, it is astounding that you would honor the judge who clearly manipulated the trial and encouraged the defendant to incriminate themself. I guess if the judge gets the result that YOU want, they did a good job.
@@6859ben I'm sorry for your loss of an opportunity to indulge in your blood lust. Thankfully you made it clear that the person you want to see suffer is a criminal, making it possible for us to tell the difference between you and him.
@@TwilightxKnight13 I've only seen snippets but it seems the judge was indeed at least formally/nominally responsible for letting the trial devolve into what contemporary observers have described as a "circus" with Bundy throwing tantrums, relishing the accounts of the crimes he was being accused of, acting out his (other) fantasies of power and grandeur as a defense attorney and going as far as to use the court room as a setting for a wedding proposal. In hindsight it's hard to say if this was strategy or incompetence on the judge's part, but either seems wrong, because it's not a judge's role to get the defendant convicted. That's the prosecutor's job.

I’ll always feel that Ted knew he’d be found guilty, but wanted to relive his crimes in the spot light and in front of thousands of people, and basically say “look upon my works” and show off what he’d done before going away forever.
Pure narcissist!
naw he was trying to expose the fact he had help from affluent individuals
@@poindextertunesThat's complete bullshite. Where's your evidence? The space in your head? Prove it. Cite. Your. Sources.
not really they like to get away with their murders
he represented him self is more truth to your question
to get away with it not to be found guilty no...
Interesting that his life was so valuable to him, yet every other life was completely disposable.
Oh big time. Psychopaths are all about self-pity, and self-gratification.
Yes. Lordy, what is it that drives them to do these evil acts.
It’s called narcissism
A serial killer changed his modus operandi because he hurt his finger trying to kill one of the earlier victims (Anthony Allen Shore ) so yea.
Big champs like Ramirez and DeAngelo fled the scene when women gave a tough fight right away or alerted people early on...
Thats, what I was about to comment too. A narcissistic psychopath!!!@picassomooon
I think it’s so important that we keep these girls memories alive. Everyone remembers the perpetrator ( not just in this case) but the victims fade into non existence to all but those who knew and loved them. I think this is so wrong. I’ve made the effort to learn as much as I can about the victims. I listen to their families and especially their mothers. As a mother myself it breaks my heart. I do feel sad for Bundy’s mother as she seemed like a lovely woman who did her best. I also come from a single mum and I know how hard that job is. No mother wants or expects their child to grow up to become a serial killer
I agree . Bundy had so many known victims that it's hard to remember all their names , but I have made it a priority to never forget the victims of "Jack the Ripper" and the real name of the "Black Dahlia" .
With any person that does a horrible crime it’s devastating how the family of the individual is treated. We have to remember in MOST CASES the suspects family are also victims
Ted is way better though… nobody cares for whoever the girls were
I saw part of an interview with his mom recently and it was heartbreaking because even though he was in jail and convicted of at least some of his crimes she still wanted to hold on to her love for him and believe he was innocent and it was all just a mistake. I can’t imagine what it must have been like to be a single unwed mother in those times but she did the best she could and he was still a monster. His brother, who sounds exactly like him, has also had a very hard time and suffered because of what Ted did. It’s so sad that they were treated so badly because of something they had no knowledge of or control over. I always, well almost always, feel bad for the perpetrator’s families. They are usually victims also but not a lot of people see them that way.
Yeah, we need to keep the memories of the victims alive that’s for sure! & and i feel for Louise bundy too, that horrible pain she must have felt it’s just terrible. She seemed like a
lovable person to me, it must have shocked her when she heard the tapes of her son’s confessions.
If all those girls that thought he was so cute and innocent got to see what that main investigator from the FSU murders saw when he told Bundy they found 12 yr old Kimberly Leeches body they would have changed their tune real quick. The guy said when he told Ted about the body being found that he transformed into that monster right front of his eyes physically changing said his whole facial features changed, his eyes turned black, his muscles morphed and were like pulsing, he started sweating profusely and stinking of body odor and went off screaming and yelling like a maniac because he knew he was fked. Said it terrified him more than anything in his whole life before or since to see him actually physically turn into that monster that very few people that lived to tell about it got to see. It freaked me out just the way he's said it. He said he thinks that was his only victim that even disgusted himself that as reverse and sick as he was he knew that one went too far, and it was ironic it was his last victim. He said Ted acted like there no way he could have done that to that kid oh not me not Ted, don't you dare accuse me of that. And right before he was executed he confessed to it. Most people who knew him and his cases think he had upwards of 100 victims and started killing long before 1974. I think everybody at some time in their lives should take a minute to give a prayer to those girls who's bodies were never found and that are still laying out there somewhere cold and alone to this day.
Bundy was busted-- he loved his handiwork. During the last interview when Kimberly's name came up he had to change the subject before he "discharged" into his jumpsuit pants. He was reliving it.
+++++
If anything, doesn't that prove that Ted wasn't in control when he did those things. Whatever was wrong with Bundy it was strong enough to change his eyes, his muscles, his smell. Can a man really be expected to be able to fight off something so strong? I mean, I find it difficult to cool off over a simple argument at work. Imagine having to calm yourself down with the problems Ted had.
Sensationalist drivel... he may as well transformed into a werewolf lol)))

He lived for many years, something he denied most of his victims. Those who survived have their own tortures to endure. ❤️🙏
His own mother - what a victim! She must think every hour of every day - why? What did I do wrong? God love her. I feel some people are clearly born evil and the world has to accept that as a fact.
But he got his punishment and he had the privilege of knowing the date
As well as their grieving families
@@camlacasse3760ikr. It would break my heart for the rest of my life if I was in her place.
At least his time on death row was not pleasant. In the end, he died in terror which is what he inflicted on his victims. People who described the execution say he was in absolute fear. I'm bot a big believer in the death penalty but I would not lift a finger to help this man.
I really thought that i watched all Bundy Documntaries and thoroughly googled to convince myself for being a "Bundyologist".
But then here on Carols channel i was once again taught better... Thank you!
I just don’t think the sketch looked like Ted but thank goodness people did think so
It never ceases to amaze me how different the police sketch is to the actual suspect, or in this case, the actual serial killer.
I used to get offered rides all the time when I was young. At the age of 13, I had a man pull up to me and my friend and asked where the High school was. (It was summer vacation). When I tried to explain to him where it was, he said I’ll never find it, can you get in the car and show me? We ran. This was in the 70s.
In 1994, a week or two before I turned 15, a guy tried to get me to go in his car. My older brother had started working at a store in a brand new shopping center. The store he worked at was the only building completed, so it was pretty deserted in the early evening when my family visited. I was standing outside waiting for the rest of my family to come out when this guy with aviator sunglasses pulled up in a gold Trans Am. He had this whole 70s look about him. I was quite a few feet away from him, kinda of in front of his car standing on the curb. He asked for directions to the interstate. We didn’t even live near the area, so I just told him I didn’t know. He was just so insistent right off the bat. He went from asking directions to immediately telling me I needed to get in his car and show him the way. That’s what I remember most, he just repeated that over and over. He was getting more and more furious and yelling at me to get in the car and banging his fists on the steering wheel. He was really starting to make a scene. I didn’t think I had time to run back to the store entrance because he was closer to it than me and I think the store exit was one of those where you would have to wait for someone to come out first. Luckily, this older couple taking an evening walk through the shopping center showed up right then and he finally took off. They were so nice and made sure I was OK.
This happened the same year I bought Ann Rule’s book, but I hadn’t read it yet. I’m 42 now and I just bought pepper spray for the first time a few years ago. Even being 5’11” I though it would be good to have.
My word !! You told the police
Had the sane thing happen to myself in the 70s although he stalked me for 2 weeks then just disappeared. I should have reported it to police but it was the 70s I thought he was just another crazy,he looked like Ted and drove a VW

@@deadmanswife3625IDIOT!!!!

I feel like society praises Bundy, and it disgusts me, but it is such a double-edged sword because we NEED the education. It's terrifying. We really need to spotlight the victims. Thank you, Carol, for your courage and for all you do.
I think its just interesting how someone can do all those things and have all those thoughts but yet seem normal, charismatic and smart
Idk....I think mostly like housewife type women (the gossipy kind) or some more fervent feminists would be the only viewers interested in the victims for more than just one go-round.
No young high-school girls do lol the rest are like wtf
Had Carol NOT escaped, Ted most likely would not have been caught for years. If ever. And He would have killed her too.
I'm glad you escaped Carol.
Que bueno que escapo Carol y pudo dar su declaración en contra de Ted Bundi el no hubiera dudado ni un segundo en matarla.
He would have been caught regardless because of the paper trail he left in gas credit card receipts. He was clever, but not that clever.
@@ValleyoftheRogue I don't think many Younger people can fathom just how much easier it was to get away with almost any Crime the further you go back in History for the most part even while making plenty of small mistakes along the way.. With technology advances he would have absolutely got found out sooner then later with the way he was doing things regardless like you said. I see people still talking about Bonnie and Clyde these days but realistically they would have probably got caught immediately in Current times and nobody would have a clue who they even are. Ted was clearly an absolute Monster and fairly intelligent but he's nothing compared to the many, many Serial Killers that were/still are never caught.. Those are the people that scare the hell out of me personally because they can literally be anyone.
I can’t watch this doc, or anything about this man, I’m just a man, every time I hear of a man killing some one. Then or yesterday I become saddened, a your women and her boyfriend, UA-cam-er they had an argument the police put the girl in there car. But decided to let her go back with her boyfriend, you’ve heard of this girl being killed by her boyfriend. It’s so sick why do some men feel the need to kill a beautiful person of mind and sole. I was 19 in the time of this man it’s was one of the biggest stories. The there was the Tate kill by Manson. Some of Manson’s women sat on 16 street during his trial here in California protesting his arrest. He was a sick-O too.
"A man who is his own lawyer has a fool for a client."
- English proverb
Ted Bundy was many things - intelligent, good-looking, personable. He was also manipulative, arrogant, cruel, narcissistic and evil. He was the devil incarnate. The world rid itself of a burgeoning malignancy that January morning in 1989.
Thank you for uploading this outstanding documentary. People really need to know about the potential malevolence out there in order to survive.
Right, short explanation... he's a psychopath. They can't be fixed. It sickens me to even try to imagine what this monster was like when he was in a frenzy like in the sorority house!!!
@@polarbearsrus6980 Yes, he was quite the psychopath. If you think about how he behaved in the sorority house you'll have nightmares. Just be happy you're still here and he's not.
Well, he had "book smarts"' but not really that smart. And as for looks, I never understood the attraction. He looked like a little worm to me.

@@frivolityrestores9608 Wrong, they're narcissists and sociopaths. Not the same as a psychopath, you need to study.
He looked exactly like his mother. I'm so glad you escaped. I lived in Colorado when he escaped from jail on 1977. There was a huge announcement warning women to not travel alone and stay in after dark. I was 21 years old.
They have the same distinctive nose
He escaped twice while in Colorado custody, once in Aspen and the final time (when he got to Florida) from Glenwood Springs.
He grew.up believing she was his sister.
Ted was your classic narcissist. Thought he was smarter than everyone, and it was always somebody else’s fault, never his own.
Got to say, this is one of the very best docs like this. And I'm a little obsessed with documentaries so it's not easy to impress me. Yall have done a great job
I watch documentaries more than any other genre out there, and I agree!
The guilt of the parents of a serial killer has to be unimaginable. Has to be a living hell dealing with the daily emotions
Actually, parents of sociopaths/psychopaths are often enablers who live in deep denial of reality.
@@sc4112 - 100%, nail on the head. I have first hand insight on this through a lifetime's experience of being cast as the 'devil' second brother to the grotesque effigy of a man raised on the conceited whim of rabid smotherhood.
Smother departed shortly before last Christmas, mission accomplished: i.e. brother never graduated from emotional kindergarten. She was good for a £50 cash gift at Christmas so even there she managed to begrudge me right to the end.
Father was no better: i.e. similarly emotionally stunted oldest sister. Although she at least took a proactive role in her own development and didn't end up (as yet) a feeble 250lb incontinent diabetic.
Yet she was still widdling the bed well into her teens and on one occasion tried to frame your hero for her filthy abomination by switching sheets before Smother did the laundry round. Smother's wrongteous indignation was brought down to earth upon rare instance of inspection beyond the veneer. The mattress, my dear Watson.
Sis figuratively reprised the same party trick well into middle age by accounting for the wreck of father's lent car as vigorous opening of the passenger door by your faithful correspondent. I wouldn't be at all surprised if she crashed the car on purpose to distract from ruined upholstery.
But my brother is 10X worse.
Anyway, yes, absolutely as you say. My instinctive reaction to Bundy's mother while watching this was - you could maybe reflect a little deeper on your influence.
absolutely just look what came out of your house Mrs. Bundy
@@sc4112explains his mother very well
@@sc4112 Absolutely. Ted had a juvenile criminal record--so she knew and lied when she spoke of his idyllic boyhood days. Bundy's mother taught him how to compartmentalize. The mother of torture-murderer Dean Corll was once approached by a teen boy who work in her candy company. The boy told her that her son Dean had tried to molest him--Corll's mother fired the teen on the spot. These killers are born with a pre-disposition towards violence and cruelty and then their environment refines it. We now know that Ted was not the product of incest but I suspect that Louise may have been raped by Ted's biological father, thus all of the secrecy and lies.
Only in the 70s if you felt suicidal and rang a helpline you could get Ted Bundy on the phone trying to stop you
Why kill yourself when ted van do it for you.
And a year to the day after he helped a suicidal girl not die by calling the Emts he killed Linda , according to Anne Rule
What? The 70's had nothing to do with it. This guy was a bomb waiting to go off whatever generation. What a ridiculous comment.

I didn't know he ate hamburgers after Lake Sammamish and didn't know Denise Naslund's mom was tortured yet again by being asked to write a letter to save Ted's life. It's striking how much trauma one person can inflict. It starts with trauma changing a brain, which is passed on organically or by people spreading it through society. There are a ton of variables, but whether trauma is internalized or externalized, it's the most long standing and most dangerous pandemic upon the human race IMO. God bless every soul who has been affected by it generationally or directly.
Eleanor Naslund was tortured more than just that. The police lost Denise's remain's aswell. Her Mother kept that pink coffin she purchased for Denise for 14 years. It was finally buried with a letter in It from her Mom and some of her personel items. It's very very sad how much devastation one person inflicted on so many lives.

They never put enough light on the victims,only the cowardly Serial killers. Movies,endless books,interviews. As if killing an unsuspecting victim is some kind of difficult,noble act.

The whole business of Ted Bundy blaming pron is ridiculous! It brings back flashbacks of being a teenager, and private school teachers saying, essentially, "Stay away from pron or you will become a serial killer like Ted Bundy". Of course, Dr Dobson bought it hook, line, and sinker; NO surprise there!
He should’ve apologized to the victims families instead of “warning parents” about porn. I understand his attorneys were still trying to get a last minute stay when he was doing this interview but at least apologize to the families of the ones he confessed too.

I was born in WA in the late 70s, grew up less than 20 miles from where the remains were found.
Bundys shadow was long over the area back then. I remember being young and my dad as delicately as he could telling me about him and what he did, when he was finally sent to final judgement. I was told never go with a man that approaches you when you are alone minding your own business, even if he looks nice, seems friendly or appears to need help. He could be a Ted Bundy.
What infuriates me is when they catch a kidnapper or a pedo, or someone quite dangerous and they let them go. Like once is enough its terrible.

What a guy and a shame of mankind. They did get him in the end. A great programme and details I did not know about. Thank you and no commercial breaks.
The reason why Carol DeRonch got away is because she fought him. Ted said she was the only one who did. He’d marvel why, when he’d tell them if they cooperated he’d let them go, why the girls believed that.
What a twisted sadistic thing to do.
If anyone ever finds themselves in a situation of an attack, FIGHT. Do NOT go willingly, DO NOT go to the next location, that’s when they’ll do their worst.
Bundy is far from the last one to do this. It happens every day somewhere in the US, someone is attacked. That includes boys.
Educate kids YOUNG. Take kids to self defense classes. The best way to stay protected is through education and FIGHTING.
I know from personal experience. At 14yrs old I was attacked by a complete stranger. In broad daylight. In the nice suburbs. He almost raped and killed me. Almost, because I FOUGHT. I got away severely beaten, but I’m happy to say he wasn’t expecting the fist fight and hard time I gave him. He under estimated the little girl, 5”1, and 105lb. He was never caught. That’s haunted me all these years later. This was in 1977, the years Bundy was around.
I knew he’d never stop. I’ve wondered for years how many girls he ruined before he was stopped.
Take your kids and grandkids to self defense classes. Prepare your loved ones to be alert just in case.
RIP all the girls Bundy ruined. I hope Bundy is in hell.
Stop blaming women for the actions of a murderer. You know a number of his victims were abducted/killed in their sleep, right? You know that he abducted at least two victims in broad daylight on the same day, in front of other people, right? How does your useless "advice" help women? It is not women's responsibility not to be victimized, understand? The onus lies squarely on the perps. BTW, if women want to be safe, they need to refuse to date, live with, or marry men. It is those "good" men who pose the greatest risk to women's lives and safety, not strangers. Too bad what happened to you, but don't assume the situation is the same with the great majority of women.

The Netflix series is excellent
A psychiatrist pointed out at the time that all the girls resembled the beautiful, athletic, dark haired middle class girl who turned him down age 17. She stated he tracked her down years later & made a point of turning down her offer of meeting up.
He actually got back together with her and dated her so that he could basically ghost her as a sort of revenge! If I am remembering correctly he asked her to marry him, she said yes, then he just disappeared because he was so mad that she’d dumped him before because she didn’t feel he was going anywhere and thought he had no direction. Once he was in college and all that he tracked her down just so he could hurt her back. When she called him to find out wtf happened and why he’d just sort of disappeared on her he acted like he didn’t know who she was or what she was talking about. So Petty!
Good point. All of that was described in detail in Ann Rule’s book. Interestingly, that complex revenge on Diane didn’t bring Ted the relief he was looking for, as he decided to abduct more and more girls that looked like her. Some psychologist said that he kept “killing Diane over and over again and couldn’t get enough”, all bc (in his mind) she had humiliated him
Yes, this was the kick-start of his killing spree.

Nope, she couldn't become a cop due to her nearsightedness. She worked in Law enforcement in various capacities and eventually became a true crime author.
If i had been related to one of the sorority girls, I would have sued the jail which permitted the monster to escape. Prisoners told the guards that they could hear Bundy going through the hatch into the ceiling area. WTF! Those Girls didn’t need to die
and the other ones didn’t need to be injured.
My exact thoughts, too. People were so focused on Bundy that they FORGOT to raise a public outcry against the lazy negligent jailhouse guards.
If I am not mistaken, the families of the girls killed after his escape DID sue, and they received sizable judgments.
Thank you so much for uploading! I love this show!

I've heard so many documentaries but this was the first time I got to hear how unbelievably difficult it was to prosecute him. Kudos to the law enforcement
how did Colorado allow him to escape and kill more women?
Oh yeah kudos to law enforcement who let him escape twice. Which caused more killings.
This documentation deserves recognition for it's historical record, I was a freshman in high-school in January 1978 and remember all this. Unbelievably slick tongue demon. His eyes are that of a predator looking for a weaker than himself victim, the eyes are definitely a clear killer. I pray we find these demons everywhere they are.

The news media spun his story shamefully. He was a near-30 year old man with no career, no marriage, no kids, driving around in a ratty VW bug tricking good women into his sick world. I don't know if times have changed or what, but none of his interviews sounded like an "articulate, calm" person to me. He always talked like a psychopath.
That's called duper's delight.
He closed his eyes as he said no bc he knows it’s a lie so he’s not confident and scared he’s eyes will say he had bc ofc he had
The question was 'So you NEVER physically hurt anyone?' So he answers no, because he did hurt people.
I was two cells down, in Florida State Prison, from Bundy. He and I had many conversations, Bundy was a true psychopath.
You should write a book or expand on what you know to psychologists ... they would love to know, as would I. Thank you.
You can see the evil in his eyes especially when when he looked like he was on a rampage, and when he’s sly smiling and referring to a second person to divert the issues of himself. What a master of evil.
Exactly That’s How I Know He’s Evil And Showing No Emotion
Thank you for this...haven't seen it in years.
I live on the pacific northwest now...whenever I drive out of town I look at the huge trees and jagged, steep and nearly impenetrable woods along the road and I am amazed that they ever can find anyone, living or...not.
Seriously no end to the rugged wilderness up here.
God Bless you Carol thank you for your channel and sharing 🙏 Great Upload!!!
Ann Rule, a very good writer, wrote a book called "The Stranger Beside Me" which was also made into a movie of the same title. Before Ted Bundy went on his killing spree he and Ann worked
together on a crisis line helping anyone who was struggling. They got along fine and it was difficult for Ann to come to terms with what Ted was accused of doing. Don't get me wrong, she was
a very intelligent woman. Once she attended one of his court hearings, she realized he was indeed guilty of killing many young woman. I'd say Ann Rule is one of the best, if not the best, sources if you have any interest in learning about Ted Bundy.
This is what makes this case so depressing. A lot of people who knew him or thought they did had to live with guilt all these years because of thinking of what they could have done to prevent it or were there signs something was amiss. It wasn't their fault.
Ann Rule is my favorite true crime author.
The girl that survived his grips in that car , she heard his voice , after her testimony in court It must have sent a chill into every officer in that room . The grip of the law now had it’s control , unraveling his smile to show the composure behind the maniac tendencies. Justice finally secured him then made the judgement final with 12 jurors listening over the gruesome evidence.
The focus on the victims made it more scary to think about bundy.
Hearing from their family and close friends really makes it more real doesn’t it? When I am researching a case like this I’m usually looking at the perpetrator, their history and background mostly, and trying to understand something that is incomprehensible. The perpetrator becomes almost just a case study, it’s the only way I can remove myself from it if that makes any sense? Focusing on the victims and hearing from the families makes it all real again. I had goosebumps and tears through a good bit of this video for sure!
When I think of the times I stupidly went off with strange men when I was 18, hitchhiking and on motorcycle adventures, I could have been killed ten times over! 😮😞😥🙄😟
wow you were brave lol
Same for me, as a teenager I hitch-hiked alone sometimes and one summer 'ran away' to go with 2 guys I'd just met the day before, on a cross country road trip, I wanted a summer adventure... how STUPID was that ! Luckily they weren't bad guys, but still. My poor mom said I must have had a guardian angel on my shoulder, now I think so too
Whew.... good. 👍🏻😘
Same here, it was a different. Era.....we didn't know to be vigilant like
that....now I watch everything and everyone.
Wolves in sheep's clothing can be anyone.Never really know what deep down Inside of aomeone.
Most people are not killers though.
Well put together documentary. Very informative. Thanks CD.
Miss Carol, thank you for uploading this informative documentary. I watch true crime bc I want to learn how to protect myself, loved ones and strangers alike. I just want to say to you, Miss Carol, I’m so grateful that you’re alive! I’m so proud of you for standing up to this monster in court! I can’t begin to imagine what you’ve endured, and I won’t pretend to. I just want you to know that you’re appreciated, loved, prayed for and looked up to by many women & ppl in general. May God continue to keep and bless you and your family, Miss Carol, in Jesus’ name. 🙏🏾🥰♥️🤗🙏🏾
I am 81 now, but lived in NYC in my early twenties, alone and w/o any family. I used my gut feeling and got hang of that NYC way of not looking, but at the same time seeing everything. Never went to Bars or anywhere alone at night time. However, did ride the subway at times when I had to work late, but was always careful and in well lighted areas. I have travelled the world over three times, and still used that old NYC feeling and my gut and it has always saved me from danger. Thank you God for always protecting me and for giving me a very unique guardian angel, always forever thankful and humbled by your Greatness.
@@camlacasse3760I guess God has his favorites. What's up with that? God spared you. It was luck kiddo. When 100s of kids are found dead by the hands of a psychopath, where was God, Jesus? You think this is true? smh.
@lindadavis5668 God gives man freewill, even to do evil. If we call on Him, He will protect. We also have to remember we are in a fallen world & need to do our part in preserving our lives. As far as those children who have been trafficked & killed, Jesus said it would be better for a person to tie a millstone around their neck & throw themselves into the sea then to harm His little ones. There is a special place in hell for people like that & it is worse then you can imagine & there is no escape.
This is a great upload. Well done, thank you!
Thank you for this upload. I always learn something new with these documentaries.
i lived in Renton Wa. and was going thru a divorce. I called Seattle Crisis Clinic at times and spoke to a nice man several times. i had no car but needed to work three jobs to purchase one, so i was hitch- hiking, with my long dark hair, miniskirt, and a nice looking man stopped and asked if i needed a ride. He had opened the VWs passenger door and my hands were on the car door and roof, when i realized the door handle was gone!! If i got in, i wasnt getting out so i declined a ride from Ted!!
I remember reading a creepy story Ted Buddy’s aunt said, she woke up one morning with sharp knives placed in bed all pointed at her. She looked up and there was 4 year old Ted with a huge smile staring at her. From that moment on she knew something was not right with him.
I so enjoyed reading all the comments from all the TB Experts!
Right ? LOL
call me Bundyologist pls
that monster didnt deserve that kind media coverage
Yes it did, so that way people could see what a true monster could actually look and act like in order to know don't trust anyone.
Well--- it'd been a few years since the Manson family circus.
I wonder if one of those women he killed hit him in the mouth that cracked his front teeth like that somebody hit him and I'd like to know who they deserve recognition
My friend was in the same college class in the state of Washington as old Bundy. She said he always came to class in a business suit and would just stare and stare at her and other women. He asked her out, but she had other plans. I'm so glad she didn't date him, as she could have ended up dead, like so many other women did at the hands of Bundy.
I dated a guy who sat next to Ted in law school. He said that Ted only rarely attended.
Ted Bundy taught us all that sometimes predators don't look like Frankenstein's Monster, that they can be handsome as movie stars and slick as butter.
And he looks to camera and tells us he's being treated like a monster and "i'm not'
You really think that the thing was good looking? Most women say “No “and that it looks like Smithers from that Simpson show.😂
So says somebody who never met him or encountered him on the street, probably wasn't born when the killings happened, and from the vantage point of fifty years later.
Shiiit. He looks like Frankenstein to me. If Bundy was a movie star, he would be that creature in Jeepers Creepers. Stalking his prey in human disguise.
lol he doesn’t look like a movie star. Sweet unibrow tho!
You don’t negotiate with a murder
I am a guy, an athlete, used to be a collegiate basketball player, point guard, about 6’1”, walking at night late at campus, I did not have a car back then, the bus 🚌 was beyond being late and I called, it’s canceled. I walked a lone in the dark. It was over 35 mins walk back to my apartment. Strangely , several cars offered me a ride. I was not scared at all Two of them were girls. I said “ I am good. Thx”. Lol I just didn’t trust anyone.
hitchhikin was way more common in the 70s
@@isildurany2888 before women were afraid of people like Ted. Everyone's afraid to hitch now.
The thing about the hairstyles is, almost all the girls had hair like that, so that shouldn’t ever have been considered anything unusual. I think the fact that he liked them skinny, and petite says more. They would put up less of a fight , and he could easily control them.
He was so weak and cawered that he hit them from behind or while asleep
Not only did he kill so many women, by strangulation or blunt force trauma, etc.. but he was also feeding off of the victims' fear in their final moments, as he sexually assaulted them. Even visited their dead bodies to relive those moments or whatever... I mean, this guy was a real jerk!
Idiota ?? Era un perverso che faceva sesso coi cadaveri disotterrati, uccideva a.morsi e lo faceva con gusto.Era pericolosissimo, psicopatico e perverso,altro che idiota.
He did one of the worst things one can do with a body-he did sexual things with it.
Excellent doc, thank you for sharing. I lived in Jacksonville in 89 when he was executed, later we lived in WASHINGTON and the terror that was Ted Bundy was constantly around you.
One thing that I have learned is that "monsters" look like you and I.
Like many of the experts, I don't think we'll ever know the truth about the number of victims he really had.
I am a true crime junkie and I have seen and read quite a bit about Ted, this was very detailed and had some information I had never heard.
To all women... please stay safe and always, always be aware and careful!
a
Please stop with the nonsense women have to be "careful" while letting predatory, even murderous, men off the hook. The responsibility for these murders rests solely on Bundy. Remember, he killed women when they slept. You act like it was all the victims' fault for what HE did.
I remember being a kid, and a car had pulled up infront of our house, the gentlemen in the car, ask me did I want some candy, being a kids I said yes, and walk towards the car. Unbeknown to be my mother had came out the house door, before I could reached the sidewalk I got smack upside the head. I spun around and looked at her, she stated 'get your arse in the house, you don't talk to strangers'. Fast-forward 20+ years my children and their friend and I were walking home. They were about 3 houses ahead of me in distance. A van passed me and stopped near them, the kids were approaching the van. I ran towards them, no smacking, but got in the middle of them and the van. I was sithing. Profanity came out first. The driver and old man, stated he was just asking for direction. My reply 'No MF, you aint asking kids for direction, when you just passed up a whole adult, me'. If he'd had a gun, it would have been a clear shot. But he was going to have to un-alive me for mine. The van sped a way. My kids looked puzzled, and embarrassed. I explain to them my reaction. I didn't have a cellphone at the time, but when I got home I called the police. I remember all the FKs of the past, Bundy, Rameriz, Hillside, and others. I couldn't let that happen to my kids. Talk to you kids people..
Why didn't you teach them that before they went to the van?
That thumbnail pic is the true monster inside; read a book about him when I was 22. Scared me to death, when my car broke down & I started walking to my kids daycare, an off duty cop gave me a ride but I checked his inside door handles & ID before I got in. He said “you’re a smart lady”, truthfully I was terrified. I feel so sorry for these young women & their families. Tragic.
One time I went off the road and into a field on a Texas back road. I took off my rings, watch, everything of any value. Locked my doors and pretended I was talking to someone. I waved pass anyone who came into the field and they left. Then a truck came and I saw it had writing on the side. I took a glance and saw it was the forest department's truck and so I did lower my window half way and told him to simply call 911 and rolled my window back u and waited for LE to arrive. Never leave your vehicle is Rule #1. Rule #2 is no good if you forget Rule #1.
@@camlacasse3760 Good tips; this was in the days before 911 & cell phones etc … I was literally stranded. Left my car w/flashers on; on a two lane road~bridge where engine had died & started the short walk. I was very lucky 😊
Nobody should ever have this happen to them ever under any circumstances but it really strikes me how many of Bundy's victims really were nice girls I mean really nice. I can't imagine harming someone that is being nice I mean I couldn't imagine harming someone like this at all but I wouldn't even want to be rude to someone like that. It takes evil to hurt a kind nice person. And these girls really seemed to be by all accounts nice girls that treated other people well that we're just decent people it's very sad.
Just the way he targeted people tells me they were all kind, giving, helpful people. That’s what he used to lure them, their kindness. Just makes it that much more sick!
@@pinkfluffydino8217 exactly, yes
So so sad. Terrible
More innocent then than young girls are today.
"Our son is the best son in the World"...mama Bundy didn't believe that...you could hear it in the cracking of her voice.
She knew more then she can tell but something was holding her back
By all accounts he definitely was the best son in the world to her. He gave her no problems, was a good brother to his siblings, was responsible for his future endeavors like school and finding a job, volunteered to help people, and was an affectionate son. To her and those he knew he truly was a good person. They just didn’t know his dark side; he said in an interview that he kept
It well hidden and “compartmentalized”.
She was only slight wrong. She should have said "worst pile of shit" in the world.
So many things must have been wrong within that mother-son relationship itself, with him being told that his mother was his sister. I was watching Anne Rule's interview and she said Ted's maternal grandfather might actually have been his bio. father. So the mother being his sister might have been true.
Also, there's one type of criminals who hold their parents in an extremely high regard for no apparent reason, even though they may have been neglected / abused. And then there's another type where the criminals acknowledge the abuse to themselves and eventually kill the parent sometimes.
Ted fell in first category. Everything in his life was an extension of his self image, and wanted that to be absolutely spotless.
Maybe she desperately wanted to believe that. No mom wants to admit they brought into this world a monster.
This idea of blaming anyone but Ted Bundy for his criminal acts is almost criminal too. It takes the focus off the victims. Kimberly Leach was 12!!
From what I’ve seen your survival instincts kicked in and your strength and will to live saved your life I’m so sorry the other families have no closure but you are a hero Carol I hope if I’m ever confronted with that kind of horror I can stay composed enough to outsmart the evil in this world
Exactly why I have a bat in my room and other things around my house and every time I leave lol
What a wicked man and waste of life
His potential was infinite and he decided to be a MONSTER
Any TV show that is in parts should tell you at what time stamp you can fast forward or go away and come back to avoid the countless recaps. People are watching the show, they're invested and are probably paying attention to know what came moments ago. No one reasonably starts watching at part 4, expecting to get the gist of the 3 previous parts in a massive recap. I wish they would stop repeating info as if we're not paying attention. EVERY show on the planet does this, recapping even after a 2 minute ad break. I have spent so much time fast forwarding this trying to see the events in some sort of chronological logic. Probably 30+ minutes of this is recap. I am grateful the ads are cut though and I am glad to see such a complete documentary in one place so I am glad it's here.
You could post time stamps for this video in your comment. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It’s because it was ok television and they did that/do that for people who have just tuned into the channel. Especially in the days before DVR and all the other similar options available now.
Any poster here can do that. Post the time stamps 😉
Yup, lots of recaps
Dont like it? Reupload it yourself! Add your own timestamps.
My mother lived down the street from Anne Rule growing up, she also went to high school with Brenda Ball, and she has a friend who knows Carol Da Ronch. I also have relatives that live not far from Lake Sammamish.
Like all of the girls Carol was small/petite….But wow was she mighty! She certainly surprised pervert/killer Ted. She survived with all of her might. Such a horrible person Ted was….So sad for the victims and their friends and families…
I always get chills when someone says Ted buddy... woman always be aware of your surroundings never get in a car with someone you don’t know and also if you can keep something to defend your self with u
It doesn't matter if men encounter a serial killer then?
And dont part your hair down the middle.
ahhh yes, the infamous Ted “Buddy” lol
@@maddiebalderas208 Ha! Nice one...
Her brother's toy bear came to life, and now whenever it's raining he calls out "Ted ... buddy," and they sing the Thunder Buddies song. Gives her the chills every time...
@@maddiebalderas208 I always get really confused when people say 'Ted Buddy' to me
He was a master at talking for hours and telling you absolutely nothing….
In a way my heart went out to Bundy's mother. No mother wants to accept that her son is evil. She was in such deep denial.
@@deadmanswife3625 How do you know? How mean.
@@catherinelw9365How was my comment mean? Clearly she was in denial because she did not want to believe or accept her son was a monster and that he committed these atrocities. She believed in his innocence even though he was so obliviously guilty. I'm not degrading or belittling her.
