This document contains correspondence that took place in 1986 that Ted Bundy established with John Hinckley Jr.. Hinckley wrote to Bundy while he was on death row, and the pair wrote letters back and forth for about about four months. Two of Ted’s letters were found when Hinckley’s room at St. Elizabeth’s Psychiatric Hospital (where he was confined to after he was found not guilty by reason of insanity after trying to kill Ronald Reagan over a 19 year old Jodie Foster) was tossed. The letters created a media sensation in April 1987 when prosecutors used them to protest Hinckley’s request for a “holiday furlough from the hospital,” saying that they helped prove his obsession with serial killer Ted Bundy. During the aftermath there was an investigation, where Bundy claimed he destroyed his letters from his new friend. Typical Ted, he lied and passed the correspondence on to a friend to hold onto, fearing that the Secret Service would want to get their hands on them (turns out he was right about that); he later gave the letters to his attorneys.
