Judge Edward Cowart "It is ordered that you be put to death by a current of electricity, that current be passed through your body until you are dead. Take care of yourself, young man. I say that to you sincerely; take care of yourself. It's a tragedy for this court to see such a total waste of humanity as I've experienced in this courtroom. You're a bright young man. You'd have made a good lawyer, and I'd have loved to have you practice in front of me, but you went the wrong way, partner. Take care of yourself. I don't have any animosity to you. I want you to know that. Take care of yourself."

Contradicting sources Disappearing date on Caryn Campbell was 1974-1975. Two other websites said he had escaped twice in Colorado. (one Colorado one Utah) It was said that he would hang heads of the women that he killed in his home. It was also said that Bundy has two of the same kind of car. One he used for his crimes and the other for everyday things.) Two sources contradicted each other by saying he had a girlfriend during the first killings
