can we do away with the narrative that ted bundy was this charismatic mastermind?

people who knew him growing up said he never fit in, was socially disconnected and weird, and constantly tried to frame himself as better than he was.

he wasn’t constantly wooing women—he had few girlfriends and one his victims who survived his attack literally described him as creepy. his college sweetheart dumped him for being pathetic, directionless, and insecure. the women who wrote him love letters had clear issues with men and were warped into finding “bad boys” attractive.

his victims were not won over by his charm—he either broke into their homes at night, attacked them when they were alone, targeted children, or played the part of a cop or man with a broken arm in need of help loading something into his car. he used violence and subterfuge, not charm, to hurt women and girls.

one of his lawyers described him as unpleasant and blatantly self obsessed. if you listen to his interviews, he sounds blatantly fake, like someone trying too hard to seem intelligent, normal, and likable. it’s a facade and not even a good one.

the media created the image of a charming man because he was a white, average looking, conservative dude and that automatically put him in a positive light in their eyes.

this is why I loved the netflix documentary so much. they showed just how disturbed he was and how he was awkward and painfully average in all aspects of his life, and that the only reason he got away with as much as he did was because the technology back then couldn’t detect all of the things it can now. like for fucks sake, he would escape and then get caught again because of MINOR TRAFFIC VIOLATIONS come on man if you’re an escaped convict at least make sure you don’t make any illegal u-turns the fuck?? he was a clever narcissist who knew how to get away with shit when he wanted to, but was dumb enough to let his arrogance sabotage every chance at freedom he got. not to mention the obvious fact that he was just a sick and twisted human being, of course.
