This was the home of Francine Bardole and her son, Larry Tucker. Just down the street, lived Leslie Knutson and her son, Josh. Although Francine and Leslie were friends, the real glue to that relationship was the friendship between Larry and Josh. Courtesy Francine Bardole
Aspen Courthouse in Aspen, Colorado. In June 1977, Bundy would jump out the far-left window on the top floor to make his escape into the wilds of Colorado.

This is the location of the McMillan Elementary School in Murray, Utah where Bundy attacked Carol DaRonch after stopping his VW in this bus drop-off lane in front of the school.

The walkway that runs in front of the library at CWSC, where Bundy was hunting for victims on April 17, 1974.
The area at CWSC where Bundy parked his car and led Susan Rancourt to it on the night of April 17, 1974 and abducted her after knocking her out with a crowbar. The train trestle at CWSC (where his VW was parked) crossed this road at an angle approximately where the red car is located. Bundy and his first potential victim, as well as victim Susan Rancourt, came from the left of the picture, having crossed the small bridge and Black Hall which is also on the left and not shown in this picture. The trail they took would have caused them to enter the area about where the asphalt separates the concrete sidewalk on the left of the photo. It’s important to note that the buildings in the foreground were not there in 1974, making it perhaps the most secluded area on campus.
The Rogers rooming house in Seattle, WA, where Bundy maintained a room on the second floor for almost six years, until he moved to Utah in September 1974.
The rooming house of Lynda Ann Healy near the University of Washington. It was here, in the early morning hours of February 1, 1974, when Ted Bundy would enter through an unlocked door, and after walking down to the basement, he attacked Healy and carried her unconscious into the night. Her partial remains would later be discovered on Taylor Mountain along with other known Bundy victims.

There is an interesting, and what appears to be an impromptu, photograph taken of Bundy on the day he graduated from Woodrow Wilson High School, where he stopped on this walkway. The black and white photo is grainy but still a good shot. And this is that walkway and Bundy was standing about a foot in front of the walkway separating line closest to the photographer, with his feet almost touching the grass. (Courtesy of Gina Wilmoth)
The Bundy residence at 3214 North 20th Street, Tacoma, Washington. The Bundy’s moved here in the mid-1960s.
Leslie Parmenter, who, at age14, barely escaped from Ted Bundy in a K-Mart parking lot in Jacksonville. Florida on February 8, 1978. This photograph of Leslie was taken one year later.
Dawn Kraut
On the evening of May 6, 1974, Kathy Parks and Lorraine Fargo, both Oregon State University students, spent a few minutes talking on the sidewalk area seen in the above photo. Afterward, Kathy crossed the small street and entered the Memorial Union Commons by way of the steps seen on the right; the steps being partly obscured by the street light. Minutes later, Ted Bundy introduced himself to Kathy and convinced her to leave with him.

I read the first four books and learned so many new details I never knew even though I grew up in Tallahassee. One thing I wondered is that while I don’t think Linda healey was the first murder of Ted she does resemble Diane Edwards the most they could be twins. No one seems to mention that. It does seem to appear he stalked her awhile. I also have a lot of curiosity about other possible victims still not atributed to Ted.
Hi APH,
First, thanks for the good words about my Bundy books!
You’re correct, Healy was not his first murder, but it was the first after he launched himself into unabated murder at the dawn of 1974, knowing he was never going to stop until he was either captured or killed. And yes, both Healy and Edwards were dark haired and quite striking to look at. And one could easily say that the similarity in looks could have contributed to Lynda’s disappearance; that is, Bundy chose her because of her looks. Unfortunately that is something we’ll never know. From all of my years of experience studying and writing about this case, I am of two minds when it comes to the abduction of Lynda Healy: On the one hand, it may be that he knew Lynda and was stalking her. This is something I’ve considered. However, I’ve also considered that the attack on the home that night/early morning, may have been totally random (after he spotted a group of women at Dante’s and followed them home), and that Bundy had no idea who was actually in that room when he entered it? We will never know conclusively one way or another. My personal feeling is that he knew of Healy (rather than “knowing” her), and he may have recognized her in Dante’s Tavern earlier in the evening. That said, he may have had his eyes on the other two women with her too (there was a guy with them as well), and perhaps he wanted one of them that night? Again, these are things we will never know. There were one or two odd calls to the house later that night around, I believe, 8:00 p.m. on that Feb. 1st – some 16 or 17 hours after Lynda vanished. After one of the women answered it, they could only hear breathing over the line, and they caller refused to talk. I can’t prove it, but I believe that was Bundy. Anyway, i hope this helps.
Thanks for the contact. 🙂
Thanks for sharing this, Kevin. Your Encyclopaedia is on my wish list.
You’re most welcome, Fiz. And thanks! 🙂
