Characteristics Of Ted Bundy
Ted Bundy was graduated in Psychology, and he was a highly intelligent and intellectual person. He knew how to influence people through his talks and actions. He tried to look insane or sometimes sane intentionally. In reality, he was the combo of both these states of life. He was narcissist type person, who always thought out of the box. He was facing certain mental and personality disorders. Being a psychopath a person could not be insane, by definition insane is a person who is unaware regarding his actions.
A person who has narcissist characteristics are found extremely intelligent. Moreover, these people including Ted are considered as insane or abnormal by society. He was not insane by law because he was intelligent and he was fully aware of his actions. Insane by law is not responsible for his actions if he might harm a person or someone's property. Because he doesn't seem aware of what he does, due to episodic disease or persistent psychiatric illness, an insane person cannot differentiate between right and wrong, furthermore insane person doesn't understand the criminal in nature actions1. He was well aware about his actions, and he knew that his actions were illegal and immoral. Aside from the insanity, he had certain psychiatric disorders. However, these disorders have no relation with insanity, and unawareness of a person to differentiate right from wrong. Additionally, he was aware that his actions and behaviors were criminal.
He had the antisocial personality disorder (ASPD), the patients of this disorder have a lower sense of empathy, and a higher level of selfless, as they hold their definition of right and wrong to select their alternatives for life. Ted had these problems due to extreme exposure to violent pornography, that led his sexual satisfaction through violent behavior. All the discussion proved that he was a sane and sound person, he had certain mental disorders, however legally that doesn't prove his insanity.
