He was accused of kidnap as early as age 14 which he denied repeatedly, and again in 1969 for a kidnapping in New Jersey. It wasn't until 1974 that Ted starting killing in Seattle, WA. His first victim, Karen Sparks of University of Washington, was sleeping in her basement when Bundy broke in and assaulted her with a metal rod and sexually assaulted her. She suffered from severe brain damage but survived. Less than a month later he struck again, in the same sense, killing a University of Washington undergrad named Lynda Ann Healy, he beat her unconscious, dressed her and took her. These acts continued at about one victim per month. Local authorities didn't have the technology or evidence to solve the case.
Bundy was arrested in August of 1975, when he failed to pull over for a routine traffic stop. By this time police had been given a description of his Volkswagen Bug with the passenger seat pulled out,
Utah Highway Patrol officer searched his vehicle and found a ski mask, a pantyhose fashioned mask, a crowbar, handcuffs, trash bags, a coil of rope, an ice pick and other items used for burglary. Bundy escaped and was again arrested multiple times.
After meeting with psychologists, he revealed a horrible past life. In his early childhood Ted was introduced to violent pornography and was socially rejected by his school mates. It is believed that because of these experiences, Ted felt the need to hurt women and by assaulting them, he filled his sexual and physical needs that he didn't get as a teenager. His murders were an attempt to fit in. Psychologists classified Ted Bundy as a High Factor 1 Psychopath. Bundy was Unusually organized, and lacked sense of remorse, empathy and failed to accept responsibility for his actions. Bundy used his extensive knowledge of law enforcement to elude identification and capture for years. On January 23, 1989 Ted was executed by electric chair.
