Ted Bundy Guilty Verdict- Murder of Lisa Levy

An extraordinary piece of true crime history, this original court document records the jury’s verdict in one of the most infamous criminal trials of the 20th century. Dated July 24, 1979, the document stems from the State of Florida’s prosecution of Theodore Robert Bundy and reflects the jury’s decision regarding the murder of Lisa Levy, one of the victims of the brutal Chi Omega sorority house attacks at Florida State University.

The verdict explicitly states that the jury found Bundy “GUILTY, AS CHARGED” on Count Three of the indictment: Murder in the First Degree upon one Lisa Levy. Signed by the jury foreman and bearing the official court filing stamp, this historic document represents the moment the jury formally convicted Bundy of one of the crimes that ultimately led to his death sentence.

Few cases have left a greater impact on the public consciousness than that of Ted Bundy. The Chi Omega murders marked a pivotal chapter in his criminal history and brought an end to years of terror that spanned multiple states. Original court records from Bundy’s trials are exceptionally scarce, making this an important artifact for collectors of true crime history, legal documents, and museum-quality criminal justice memorabilia.
