Ted Bundy
American serial killer (1946–1989)
Summary
Theodore Robert Bundy was an American serial killer who kidnapped, raped and murdered dozens of young women and girls throughout 1974, 1975, and 1978. His modus operandi typically consisted of convincing his target that he was in need of assistance or duping them into believing he was an authority figure. He would then lure his victim to his vehicle, at which point he would bludgeon them unconscious, then restrain them with handcuffs before driving them to a remote location to be sexually assaulted and killed.
