1. Ted Bundy
In August 1975, nefarious serial killer Ted Bundy was first arrested for kidnapping after one of his victims escaped and gave police a description of his Volkswagen Beetle. Bundy was convicted of the kidnapping in 1977 and given a 15-year sentence.
However, prosecutors were still pursuing murder charges against him. In June 1977 in Aspen, Colorado, Bundy was alone in a court library preparing his defense when he found an open window. He jumped from the second story, walked down Main Street, and disappeared. With authorities swarming around Aspen, Bundy was captured six days later. Luckily, he didn’t kill anyone on that escape.

Unfortunately, that wasn’t the only time he escaped. On December 31, 1977, Bundy, who had lost 15 kilograms (30 lb), was able to slip through a hole he had cut in the ceiling of his cell in the Glenwood Springs’ jail. Prison officials didn’t realize Bundy was gone until 15 hours later. That gave Bundy the time he needed to make his way to Tallahassee, Florida.
On January 14, 1978, Bundy broke into a Florida State University sorority house and beat four women sleeping there, killing two and seriously injuring a third. Hours later, he broke into another house where he beat dance student Cheryl Thomas almost to death. Her neighbors heard the commotion and called police. Aware of what happened at the sorority house, police arrived within four minutes, but Bundy was gone.
In February 1978, Bundy made his way to Lake City, Florida, where he kidnapped 12-year-old Kimberly Leach from her school. The next day, Bundy was put on the FBI’s Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list. But Kimberly’s body wasn’t found until two months later.
On February 15, Bundy was arrested while driving a stolen Volkswagen Beetle in Pensacola, Florida. Ultimately convicted of the murders he committed while on the lam, Bundy was given the death sentence. He admitted to a total of 30 murders, but it’s believed that he committed more.Bundy was executed on January 24, 1989.
