When people think of serial killers, the name Ted Bundy is one of the first names that come to mind. The now deceased monster was described as handsome, charismatic and smart. All traits he used to lure women to violent deaths one as young as 12 years old in Florida. His crimes were beyond savage and there are still several missing person cases in the Western United States that Law Enforcement believes were done by Bundy. Bundy acknowledged thirty victims, but the number may be much higher. He was executed in Florida after he travelled there and murdered twelve year old Kimberly Leach and two female college students at Florida State University named Lisa Levy and Margaret Bowman.

It was announced that Ted Bundy is the murderer of seventeen year old Laura Ann Aime who went missing Halloween Eve of 1974 in Utah County in the state of Utah (USA). Her remains were found almost a month later in the American Fork Canyon. Bundy had been a longtime suspect and DNA evidence proves he was responsible.

It was one of Connecticut’s most brutal double murders. A toddler boy run over and killed with a car. His mother kidnapped, sexually assaulted and shot to death. All this done by their neighbor of high school age. He was sentenced to prison for the murders of 29 year old Elizabeth Hart and her 14 month old son Thomas. Sadly, the lone surviving member of that family has to continue to attend these hearings to make sure this monster never gets out.
