Theodore Robert Bundy (né Cowell; November 24, 1946 – January 24, 1989) was an American serial killer who kidnapped, raped, and murdered dozens of young women and girls during the 1970s. He was nicknamed the "Campus Killer" and the "Lady Killer". After more than a decade of denials, he confessed to 30 murders committed in various states between 1974 and 1978. Bundy's modus operandi typically consisted of convincing his target that he was in need of assistance or duping her into believing he was an authority figure.
