[00:00:00]Ted Bundy fooled everyone with a simple trick. He'd put his arm in a fake cast, walk up to women with crutches, ask for help loading books into his car. They followed him willingly, believing they were helping an injured stranger. His charm was so convincing that judges trusted him, lawyers respected him, police officers let their guard down. He escaped from custody twice. Bundy had studied law. He represented himself in court, cross-examined witnesses, played the system perfectly, but forensic science caught up. Bite marks on a victim's body matched his teeth exactly.
