He was found guilty of kidnapping, raping and killing over thirty women and girls in about seven states. Till date, the actual number of persons he has killed isn’t known.

However, he only confessed to 30 murders during trial after initially denying ever killing anyone for more than ten years.

He has also killed a few victims at their homes at night while they slept by bludgeoning them.

Bundy was eventually executed by electrocution at the Florida State Prison on January 24, 1989 after over ten years of trial.

Richard Bundy is the younger half brother of Ted Bundy. He was born in 1961 in Tacoma, Washington to Louise and Johnny Bundy.

He is about 15 years younger than Bundy but they were very good friends and saw him as an example while growing. Little did he know that he had certain dark secrets he didn’t know about.

Unlike his sisters who have gone silent over the years, Rich has granted a few interviews here and there while also pursuing a career in music.
