Heavy Lifting

Contributed by Wayne Lawson on Feb 25, 2019

How To Be A Do-Gooder

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 8, 2022

Ted Bundy is well known for one thing; he was a serial killer. He was a nice looking young man and he favored killing pretty, dark-haired cheerleader type girls.

He would bludgeon his prey to death with blunt objects and was fond of raping and biting them. He was a clean-cut serial killer that confessed to 28 killings, but other estimates indicate that he brutally killed as many as 33 to 100 female victims during the 1970's. After numerous appeals, ...read more
