Altri nomi: Тед Банди
Theodore Robert Bundy è stato un serial killer statunitense, autore di almeno 30 omicidi ai danni di giovani donne negli Stati Uniti tra il 1974 e il 1978; potrebbe avere colpito anche prima, a partire dagli anni '60.
Bundy è ricordato come un uomo affascinante, tratto che sfruttava per conquistare la fiducia delle sue vittime. Era solito attirare la loro attenzione fingendo di essere disabile o in difficoltà, oppure impersonando una figura autoritaria, per poi aggredirle e stuprarle in luoghi appartati. Talvolta ritornava sulla scena del crimine per avere rapporti sessuali con i cadaveri in decomposizione, almeno finché la putrefazione non era tale da rendere questi atti impraticabili.
Fu inizialmente incarcerato nello Utah nel 1975 per sequestro di persona con tentata aggressione, e successivamente fu sospettato di diversi altri omicidi irrisolti in molti altri stati americani. Di fronte alle accuse di omicidio in Colorado, progettò due fughe per poi compiere altre aggressioni, tra cui tre omicidi, finché non fu nuovamente catturato in Florida nel 1978. Ricevette tre condanne a morte in due processi separati per gli omicidi in Florida. Morì sulla sedia elettrica il 24 gennaio 1989 alla Raiford Prison di Starke, Florida.
La sua biografa e conoscente personale Ann Rule lo ha descritto come "un sadico sociopatico, che traeva piacere dal dolore altrui e dal senso di potere che provava verso le sue vittime, sia quando stavano per morire, che dopo". Si è definito "[...] il più insensibile figlio di puttana che tu abbia mai visto". Il procuratore Polly Nelson, uno dei membri che aveva il compito di difenderlo in tribunale, scrisse che "era la precisa definizione del male".

„…this guy is responsible for twenty or thirty more deaths at least, and there's a certain aspect of possessiveness in that. I think that's one way of describing it in rather bland terms, a possessiveness where the corpse could easily be as important as the live victim, in some respects. I mean, it's that physical possession and ownership, a taking, if you will, that is just part of the syndrome. I think that sense of power and ownership is one of the reasons why I think in some cases—not all, certainly—is why I think he might be individually intending to return to the scene to either view his victim, or in fact, interact with the body in some way.“

„People say "Ted Bundy didn't show any emotion, there must be something in there". I showed emotion. You know what people said? "See, he really can get violent and angry."“

„Guilt. It's this mechanism we use to control people. It's an illusion. It's a kind of social control mechanism and it's very unhealthy. It does terrible things to our body.“

„Sure, I get angry. I get very, very angry and indignant. I don't like being locked up for something I didn't do, and I don't like my liberty taken away, and I don't like being treated like an animal, and I don't like people walking around and ogling me like I'm some sort of weirdo, because I'm not.“

„I'm not gonna be in this room when that jury walks in. I'm not going through this and you knew that, your honor. You know how far you can push me….. You wanna make a circus? You got a circus. [points to prosecutor] I'll rain on your parade Jack. You'll see a thunderstorm. This will not be the pat little drama you've arranged.“

„…just like anybody else with an obsession, whether it be fishing, bowling or skiing, he has ways he can vicariously satisfy it. Maybe he is going to peep shows and reading detective magazines. I think there's an excellent chance that one way he gets off is by going to look at what that call the slasher films.“

„Those of use who are, who have been so much influenced by violence in the media, in particular pornographic violence, are not some kinds of inherent monsters. We are your sons and we are your husbands. And we grew up in regular families. And pornography can reach out and snatch a kid out of any house today. It snatched me out of my home twenty, thirty years ago.“
