Summary
Ted Bundy may not have been an active Mormon church member at any point; FLOODLIT.org typically does not list individuals who were not active in the Mormon church at the time of alleged sexual misconduct.
However, FLOODLIT’s purpose is to provide clarity and awareness to the topic of sexual abuse in the Mormon church. Bundy’s case is so well-known that we decided to publish this case report, in order to help people interested in learning more about his case as it relates to Mormonism.
The case is also relevant to a discussion about Mormon teachings and culture, because of the way in which multiple LDS church members who knew Bundy came to his defense.
