COA included
Theodore Robert Bundy (November 24, 1946 – January 24, 1989) was an American serial killer, kidnapper, and rapist who committed numerous murders across multiple states between 1974 and 1978. Bundy was known for his intelligence, charm, and ability to gain the trust of his victims—typically young women—before assaulting and killing them. He often revisited crime scenes and engaged in acts of necrophilia.
After multiple arrests and escapes from custody, Bundy was finally apprehended in Florida in 1978. He confessed to over 30 murders, though the true number remains unknown. In 1979, he was convicted and sentenced to death for the murder of two women at Florida State University’s Chi Omega sorority house. Bundy was executed by electric chair at Florida State Prison on January 24, 1989. His case has been widely studied in criminal psychology for insights into psychopathy and manipulative behavior.
