Watching finale now.
Others than Ted and the details of the investigation, I’ve learned 1 important thing..
Holy shite What the hell were men thinking back then. They dressed and looked like Oompa Loompas and Sex Predators

I found the men's attire to be so cheesy, too. Also, when the judge said "You’re a bright young man. You’d have made a good lawyer and I would have loved to have you practice in front of me, but you went another way, partner. I don’t feel any animosity toward you. I want you to know that."
No animosity? Really?

yeah Bundy is a serial killer i didn't know much about but the gf put this doc on a few nights ago and we watched them all
then i listened to the LPOTL episodes and i was like WHOA NELLY. the doc completely glossed over his actual crimes
dude would frick the dead bodies until they turned into goo, basically. he also kept the heads for long periods of times
How did you have time to get a girlfriend

It’s most fascinating and terrifying that people like that walk among us. Nothing about Ted Bundy hinted at him being a sociopathic mass murderer. He was attractive, highly educated, well spoken, had a normal and likeable personality with exceptional social skills. The fact that someone like that can systematically murder 30+ people is horrifying.
This is what absolutely terrifies me. Bundy was in the news in 1989 prior to and followings his execution. It freaked me out. In the majority of the images, Bundy was extremely handsome. I had a hard time reconciling how someone that handsome could be the devil. Thanks to Bundy, I haven't trusted a strange man since 1989. I made my daughters watch this. Evil comes in all shapes and forms.
The Aspen sheriff giggling about Bundy's first escape needed his arse kicked.
I had no idea he had a daughter - fathered while he was on death row.

I suspect that was kept very hush hush. Who would want the burden of the entire world knowing you are the offspring of Ted Bundy?

Anti-death-penalty people will latch on to anything to rationalize a stay of execution.

Finished the Netflix doc
Fascinating that when he was acting normal he’d have light blue eyes but when discussing his crimes in detail they would turn dark black, like you could see him morphing into his alter ego. He really was a man with a dozen different faces.
I found it interesting that this documentary left out the fact that he was engaged to his first girlfriend (LPOTL explains that entire situation. One of the host apparently went to FSU and once said "So this is the Ted Bundy house". He was immediately asked to leave.)
I've always been curious about his first escape. If he didn't twist his ankle during his jump from the court building. He might have gotten further away. His lake of food and the cold weather sent him into a downward spiral.
His second escape left me speechless.
One funny note in the doc. The fact that Colorado PD arrested 100 ppl and seized 200 pounds of marijuana during the manhunt for Bundy.

Hell of a lot of manic depressives that don’t murder dozens of women and defile their corpse
At some point you can’t just write off your crimes with mental health issues.

It definitely started him down a dark path. He was killing animals, was a peeping Tom and was breaking and entering at an early age.
But when he ended up committing multiple brutal murders of young women coupled with necrophilia, go directly do death row, do not pass go.

With that being said, he's one of the very few serial killers that didn't have the hallmark signs as a kid (Outside of the entire deal with his mother and grandfather).
I really hope the conversations with a killer highlights other cases (The Hillside Strangler, Green River Killer etc)

No I get that, but I think the person in the doc certainly was trying to do that.

I've always gone with the LPOTL perspective that a great deal of this has to do with the inadequacy he felt off and on during his first relationship in Seattle.

Did anyone else find the crowd out of the FL prison interesting? It's like one of the detectives said "Most of those college kids were 10 years old when Bundy killed those girls. It was just a reason to get drunk and party"

I am a nerd when it comes to serial killers and like to read about and watch films on them so I knew the Ted Bundy story already. I was interested in hearing him talk on the tapes but we basically just got a documentary about Bundy with 15 minutes of him talking on the tapes.
Am I the only one that felt a little cheated by the title and the way this was sold to us?

I think he helped finding the Green River killer because he told the detectives that if they found bodies to not touch them. The killer would be back because he most likely was going to come back to "play" with the bodies. Pretty gross! yay!
I may be wrong about that but I'm pretty sure I read that somewhere.

I thought the same thing. Obviously wasn’t your daughter, was it, Judge?
Just this side of “celebrity-fascination”. Probably exactly that.

Probably covering his tracks for an appeal given the issues he had with Bundy during the trial

It was an unnecessary statement. Some judges absolutely give these people a tongue-lashing on the closing, after the verdict. This judge could have just kept silent after the "different path" statement. It was almost like forgiveness, absolution, or crawfishing. It just was an odd statement and sat badly with me.
Posted on 1/29/19 at 8:58 pm to liz18lsu
Dude was scum and a POS. I had read and seen enough about the crimes but the courtroom stuff got me. Making that officer recount finding the body for his obvious own gratification? He was manipulating everyone nonstop - but some of his courtroom behavior was so odd. Was he just a sociopath playing a game? He basically made the prosecution’s points for them.. and the shite with firing his attorneys. Bizarre
I just think about how easy it would have been to prevent so many of the murders with even a fraction of the technology available today.

I know what you mean, but I think we got a decent amount of him talking. For months, the guy did say he couldnt get anything out of him worth a damn

Buddy of mine told me this today
