CONCLUSION In Bundy?s opinion there are very few true psychotic killers, that is, those driven by voices and visions. The majority are like himself ? intelligent people capable of making rational decisions in relation to their crimes. In a last ditch effort to save his miserable life, Bundy began a recital of all the murders he committed, twenty-three in all. His last nervous words were: ?Give my love to my family and friends.?
