About this listen

In this episode, we strip away the mythology and examine Ted Bundy's methods and madness—not the legend he carefully constructed, but the mechanics of how he selected victims, gained trust, and maintained control while killing repeatedly. Bundy's greatest weapon wasn't intelligence or charm. It was access—and his uncanny ability to read social rules, weaponize sympathy, and exploit our reluctance to believe that evil can look familiar. We break down how Bundy manipulated women, law enforcement, the media, and even experts—while feeding a narrative that still distorts how we understand serial predators today. Drawing on confessions, behavioral analysis, and what we now know about psychopathy and entitlement rage, this episode examines how Bundy operated, why people believed him, and what his behavior teaches us about modern predators who rely less on force and more on persuasion. This is not a retelling of crimes you already know. It's an examination of how Ted Bundy worked—and why we're still vulnerable to men like him. If you think you know the Ted Bundy story, this episode will challenge what you think you understand. 🔔 If This Episode Stayed With You… Follow Crime Stands Still for investigative episodes that go deeper than headlines Share this episode with someone who thinks "evil" looks obvious Leave a review—it helps these stories reach the people who need to hear them 👉 For deeper insight into surviving the mind games of a psychopath, get my book Surviving a Psychopath. https://kerriedroban.com/surviving-psychopath ✅ Join my Masterclass: https://kerrie-zhivago.mykajabi.com/surviving-a-psychopath Could YOU spot a psychopath?
