The Force is Strong With This One
I have noticed that there are a few comments here and there on the forum about Ted Bundy but nothing of a concrete study of his profoundly disturbing psychological profile. Therefore I am starting this thread as I think it can provide further insight into the mind of a psychopath (or at the very least a cunning sociopath).
Recently I came upon Ted Bundy's last interview, which can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9LYL1PTrtXo
The interview (which takes place only a day before his execution and a few days after his full confession ... which apparently took 11 years to come out) is very disturbing, candid and gives a real open look into the mind of a very sick individual and into the development over time of radically violent behaviour. On one hand he seems very desperate, broken down, vulnerable and honest about his actions and the state he was in. He even mentions accepting God and learning to live in the moment. However, one cannot help but wonder is it is all not just an act to win another stay of execution. It appears the doctor that interviews him falls for the act and fails to ask the really tough questions.
For more of a rounded out insight into his character, check out this interview from 1977 (at that point I think he had at least 8 victims) where he flat out denies his guilt and says that there was someone else out there that waas responsible: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AEWsxCrMM1U
Here is also an interesting documentary providing insight into his life, his character and his crimes, a lot of which he fails to mention in his last interview (particularly details of his family life): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zriSw1UBqv8
