What do you make of the fact that Bundy whitewashed all the bad stuff out of his childhood? He wasn’t raised in a normal two parent family. He was born in a home for unwed mothers and was brought up believing his mother was his sister. His grandfather, whom he thought was his father [and may well have been] tortured animals - as did Bundy as a child [he mutilated animals with knives]. Why does Bundy mention none of this? Could it be that he is just giving Dobson what he wants to hear?

My impression was that he simply that he didn't want to shift blame onto someone else.

It didn't strike me so much as noble as just trying to cut to the bottom line because he knew his time was short.

Did you notice how he responded to the phone ringing in the background? I'll bet his first thought was "it's the Governor!," followed quickly by..."who the h$ll am I kidding..."

Well, well, well.

And I had always thought that Ted Bundy was an exception to the pretty reliable rule that sexual deviancy in males stems from the lack of a strong, NORMAL father figure.

Turns out he had a pretty f-ed up childhood like so many others.
