The media has a fascination with covering these violent offenders. Not just in the “news” but in docudramas and true crime shows.
It seems they like a certain level of chaos in the culture.
Another wonderful rapist:
“During the Kimberly Leach trial, on February 9, 1980, Bundy took advantage of an old law still on the books in the state of Florida that allowed a “declaration” in court to constitute a legal marriage. Bundy proposed to former coworker Carole Ann Boone, who had moved to Florida to be near Bundy, in the courtroom while questioning her on the stand. She readily accepted and Bundy announced to the courtroom that they were married. Following numerous conjugal visits between Bundy and his new wife, Boone gave birth to a daughter in October 1982. However, in 1986 Boone moved back to Washington and never returned to Florida. The current whereabouts of Boone and her daughter are unknown
Interesting about the conjugal visits. I’m sure that didn’t continue to fuel anything.
Chaos sells. The news business thrives in times of chaos.
