Summary
In March 1976, Ted Bundy was convicted of the aggravated kidnapping of a young woman near Salt Lake City, Utah. Bundy had not been accused or convicted of any violent crime except this one. No one knew then how many women Bundy had murdered, and many thought him incapable of doing so.
Dr. Al Carlisle was part of the 90-day diagnostic team at the Utah State Prison when Bundy was sent there after the trial. Dr. Carlisle s assignment was specific: Determine to the best of his ability, without being biased by any of the reports previously done, whether Ted Bundy had a violent personality. The judge would use this information in deciding whether Bundy should serve time or be released on probation.
In Violent Mind: The 1976 Psychological Evaluation of Ted Bundy, Dr. Carlisle takes the listener step by step through this previously-unpublished evaluation process, and shows how he concluded that Bundy had the capacity to commit aggravated kidnapping, and perhaps much worse.
Violent Mind contains never-before-seen interviews with Ted Bundy and those who knew him, including a letter Bundy wrote to Dr. Carlisle that has been locked away for more than 40 years.

Great book on Bundy!
I binged this book and didn't even notice how much time had passed. I've read extensively on the case but I still feel like I got some new insight. It's a fascinating analysis of Bundy and I was particularly interested in the interviews.
I like the narrator. He does different voices to distinguish characters, which initially took some getting used to, but as I zoned out and let the book play, I came to appreciate the voices as they made it clear who were talking.

Brilliant
As long as I can remember ive been fascinated with Serial Killers, especially Ted Bundy. As a Criminology and Psychology Student and trying to understand the Criminal Mind this Book was a fantastic read, very informative and thorough. There was a lot of information which surprised me, shocked me and overall different ways of looking at what a person might say or do. Even though I've studied Ted Bundy for years (10 years), there was still that sense of information given to me which I didn't know. so thank you for adding this to Audible, I will however be buying this book and keeping it as a studying book.. x

Great book; accents a little off-putting
Great book; really enjoyed this expert's take on Bundy. The narration is good EXCEPT for the voices. Why give Bundy that little, reidy, high-pitched voice when everyone knows he didn't sound remotely like that? And why was (Scottish!) Dennis Nilsen given the fruity tones of an old English aristocrat? Silliness!

Shame
Shame really, could of been a good audiobook with fascinating insight however the narrator renders it unbearable with his stupid attempt at different voices of females and Ted.

Only in the era of Bundy-mania...
Bit of a disappointment. This is really just something along the lines of a professional’s notes read out, but in a bizarre way. The narrative is fine but the narrator insists on going it as performance. Every time he refers to someone else’s opinion from the notes he insists on doing a silly voice to act out what they say. So not even the dignity of being a dry tome on the subject. This would never have been commissioned if we weren’t in a weird Bundy-mania phase due to the anniversary of his death.
