Content: Finally, in November 2001, Gary Ridgway was arrested and found guilty of the murders. The profile Bundy helped create matched Ridgway perfectly and was considered an important contribution to the investigation. 7 The Exhausting Appeals to Delay Execution
Just seven hours before Bundy’s pending execution, his defense lawyers issued an appeal that he was mentally incompetent when he stood trial in 1980 for the murder of a 12-year-old Kimberly Leach in Lake City, Florida. They argued that Bundy’s bizarre outbursts in court whilst he was representing himself as his own lawyer was clear enough evidence that he was not fit to stand trial. Bundy’s legal team managed to win him an extra day on the planet, as three judges of the United States Court of Appeals agreed there was insufficient time before the scheduled 7 am execution to assess the appeal. Considering they would need longer to hear his attorney’s arguments they were granted a court order to temporarily suspend the execution. This was Bundy’s second successful attempt to dodge the death penalty, however, the appeal was eventually unsuccessful. Governor Bob Martinez, who personally signed Bundy’s death warrant, stated, “Justice has been on hold for a decade and it’s about time Ted Bundy paid for his crimes.” 6 His Final Confession
