I think Ted Bundy would fall under the Beccaria theory, he based his theory on pain-pleasure principle. He thought the cause of criminal behavior was that people seek to do whatever brings them pleasure to avoid what causes them pain. I believe that Ted bundy was in pain when he found out that his grandparents and his mother have been lying to him so half of his life. He was also in pain when his first love didn 't want to marry him and broke his heart. Ted Bundy is someone people don’t see as a bad guy, but is someone who has a mask of

Theodore’s father was a businessman and philanthropist. Theodore’s mother was also born from an affluent family. Starting at a very early age, Theodore suffered from a heavy case of asthma and had horrible eyesight throughout his whole life. He did a lot of physical activity and developed a very strong physique. Despite physical barriers, Theodore had a very strong outlook on life and was very strong physically and mentally. Theodore was also very intelligent and he attended Harvard College and Columbia Law School.
Ted Bundy was a brutal serial killer. He was also very charming and handsome to
He was intelligent, articulate and handsome. During a gruesome killing spree, Ted Bundy slaughtered more than thirty five women within the span of five years, becoming one of the most notorious serial killers in American history. He grew up believing that his grandparents were his parents and his unwed mother to be his older sister. He was not very good at building relationships and had a lot of conflict with his stepfather and enjoyed the terms of violence and sex as a child. Ted shoplifted during his teenage years and enjoyed being above the law. He was generally very shy and gained a lot of popularity and self esteem in high school because of his good looks. It was there that he met his high school girlfriend Stephanie Brooks with whom he become obsessed, but the relationship did not last very long as she did not feel the same way for him so she broke up with him. Depressed by the break up, Ted dropped out of college and returned home with his family where he found out the truth about his biological mother. This left Ted in a state of confusion about his identity and he felt betrayed by the women in his life. He went back to high school where he and Stephanie got back together but right after she agreed to marry him, he broke up with her to seek revenge. After this charade his killing spree began, luring young women with lies, abducting, raping, physically abusing and killing them.
Known by many as the Unabomber, Theodore John "Ted" Kaczynski was born on May 22, 1942, in Chicago Illinois. According to Paul Ferguson in his article “Ted Kaczynski: Evil Man, or Tortured Soul?” featured on CNN, as a toddler, Kaczynski spent much of his time in the hospital when he was diagnosed with an allergic reaction that caused him to have Hives all over his body. According to Ferguson, hospital staff who photographed Ted stated that he looked terrorized. In their article “An Adlerian Analysis of the Unabomber,” Amy M. Leeper and her colleagues at the University of Texas explain that Ted’s “childhood was spent largely with his mother, who devoted all of her time to the education and care of her two sons”(169-70). In their article “Tracking down the Unabomber” Nancy Gibbs and Sam Allis suggest that Ted had the mind of a genius. According to “…...
Theodore Robert Bundy was born November 24th, 1946 in Burlinton, Vermont to a 21 year old mother. Ted's mom never told him much about his father except that he was in the armed forces and they had only dated a few times. Ted was left in foster care for two months while his mom and parents decided what to do with him. In 1946 an illegitimate child was extremely looked down upon by society. Once they decided to keep Ted, his grandparents told everyone he was their adopted son.
Teddy Roosevelt was born October 27, 1858. He grew up in New York City. His father, was a businessman and philanthropist. His mother, was a Southerner, raised on a plantation in Georgia. At Harvard, Teddy studied natural science but soon developed an interest in politics. After he graduated from Harvard in 1880, he decided to go to Columbia Law School to study law. After just a short year he dropped out of law school to further his career in politics.
Ted Bundy was an American born rapist, a necrophile; a serial killer and a kidnapper who assaulted and murdered several young women during the 1970’s. The criminal kept on denying the charges for more than ten years and later confessed of having committed the thirty homicide crimes in seven different states before his execution (Rule, 2009). Bundy’s handsome and charismatic appearance made it possible for him to easily win the confidence of young women who were always his targets. He broke into the dwellings of his victims at night and bludgeoned them as they slept. He also approached young women in public places where he impersonated as an authority figure or feigned injury on his victim before empowering and assaulting at a more secluded area where he left them dead (Rule, 2009).
Additionally, Ted Bundy first lived in Philadelphia with his maternal grandparents. Ted’s grandfather was an extremely violent individual who would abuse animals, beat people who made him angry and read pornography daily. When Bundy was interviewed as an adult, he said he could only recall fond and enjoyable memories of his grandfather (“Bundy Psychological Problems”, 1989). This is an example of repression in which an individual buries a traumatic event or memory in their unconscious. Bundy could not remember his grandfather being a horribly frightening person or the horrendous acts he committed. Ted had blocked out scarring incidents which indicates his traumatizing childhood.
Ted continued studying at the University of Michigan, after graduating from Harvard University. He became a teacher on dissertation, and later earned a degree from Michigan University as well, yet still remaining in isolation from personal interactions with people.
Ted was a bright but shy child. He was antisocial as a kid but excelled as a student. It's said that around age three Bundy became fascinated with knives. He graduated high school and then attended the University of Puget Sound but then transferred to the University
Ted Bundy who was he, what was his childhood like, what were his interest, and what lead him to purse these horrid acts? These are all the things you need to learn to try and understand when it comes to understanding killers and their motives. Bundy was born November 24th, 1946 in Burlington, Vermont to a woman who was so embarrassed of him he grew up calling her his sister.
He was an extrovert and that was why he needed to kill and rape multiple women not just one. He says it was not his family’s fault he was like this and that is true but somewhere in his DNA caused him to do these crazy things. He also had some type of stress that made him snap and never go back to the way he was. I wonder if Ted Bundy would have been different if he put himself in a different environment. Bundy blamed the environment is what caused him to make these crimes but I don’t think so plenty of men watch porn and do not go around killing
I believe that the Social Control Theory best explains Ted Bundy’s criminal behavior. In the Social Control Theory the deviants care about what others think about them and then conform to social expectations because they accept what other expect. Bundy’s true and first love broke up with him after she felt that he didn’t “have a successful future”. Bundy accepted this expectation of himself so he dropped out of school. It was during this time that he began his killing spree to gain confidence.
Introduction: On the spectrum of criminal activity, serial killers are rather rare. Rarer still is a serial killer like Ted Bundy. Bundy confessed to killing 28 women in the 1970s in ghastly fashion and some believe he may have killed far more. It is hard to imagine what could cause any person to cross the mental boundary into such macabre behavior as Bundy perpetrated. Nevertheless, it is important to try to understand that behavior because only though such an understanding would society be able to identify and deter mass murderers in order to save lives.
Theodore Bundy was born on November 24th 1946. He was born to an unwed mother who was told that she was his sister. He was raised by his grandparents who portrayed themselves as his parents throughout his early childhood years. According to the article I read Ted’s grandfather was abusive towards Ted and his other siblings (Montaldo). Ted was shy and said to be sociably awkward, but during high school he developed into good looking guy and was liked by many.
