LEWIS [OceanofPDF.com](OceanofPDF.com) Chapter 1 Pursuit “ H e’s like, kinda hot, right?” Well, that was not the first answer I expected to hear when I asked,“What do we know about Ted Bundy?” I pinch the bridge of my nose as snorts and giggles echo through the lecture hall. I hate introductory courses. I should’ve never agreed to fill in for Professor Park this semester—a mistake. They’re young. I have to remember that they’re young. I can’t expect concise and appropriate language from freshmen. Only two months ago, they were in high school. But even highschoolers should know the difference between tenses. That is basic knowledge. Elementary, even. The word ‘is’ refers to the present tense. Something that is currently happening. Seeing as Mr. Bundy has been deceased for over thirty years, he isn’t anything. He is not hot. He is not smart. He is not alive. Rightfully so. I would wager good money that my oh-so-articulate student is referring to the Hollywood biopic version of Ted Bundy, starring none other than a teenage heartthrob. That’s the problem with the entertainment industry. They take a vile and sick individual and transform them into a swoonworthy idol. Ted Bundy was attractive; that’s a fact. But hot? Hot refers to lustful, erotic, and amorous. Does my student find herself sexually drawn to Mr. Bundy? Let’s find out. I click the forward arrow on the slide advancer, and Ted Bundy’s true face appears on the projector screen. I stand to the side and lock my gaze on the vocal student. “Miss…” I check the attendance sheet.“Miss Laird.” I cock my head.“This is Ted Bundy. He kidnapped, raped, and murdered over thirty women between 1974 and 1978. He would lure women to his vehicle, bludgeon them, and then transport them to a secondary location.” I pause, the freshman squirming uncomfortably in her seat. “Do you still find Mr. Bundy hot, Miss Laird?” She presses her lips into a thin line, shaking her head.“No.” Her voice comes out softer, timid. I don’t want to be the reason why this girl loses her confidence, her fire, but words matter. The way in which we speak about these monsters matters. The way in which we speak about their victims, matters even more. “Mr. Bundy was attractive,” I say, addressing the rest of the class.“He was also charming, making it easier for him to commit these heinous crimes. Today, we’ll be discussing Ted Bundy’s modus operandi. You may know the term in its simplified vernacular—MO. Can anybody define and give me an example of a modus operandi?” Three hands shoot up from the front row. I rein in a grin. I’m not supposed to have favorites, but I appreciate those who abide by classroom guidelines and participate in discussions.
