BUNDY
The Childhood of a Serial Killer
Chapter One - Enviromental Loading 101
After the execution, John Wilson, a journalist and news anchor for Fox 13 Tampa, actually summed up my entire reason for writing this book. Thank you, John. He said, “We need to know more about our society and who
we are, and what makes us what we have become. We don’t know nearly enough about that.”
​
Well, here goes my attempt at this very conversation. How did it all start? Where in the world did this guy come from? We will
commence Ted’s side of the story with the very first sign that anything was awry with him or the people around him. It is an eerie example of behavior and an alarming glimpse into his beginning years that shaped the killer.
What They Are Saying
Very Readable, His Story Grabs Your Interest Right Away!
"Ted Bundy is a familiar name if you were around the NW, especially the Seattle area in the 70s and 80s. Carol explains how this monstrous killer endured an extremely troubled infancy and youth, almost driving your feelings towards empathy. I was fascinated with his story as well as additional examples of the lives of other serial killers."
