Kathy Kleiner Rubin: Surviving Ted Bundy and the Chi Omega Attack
On January 15, 1978, serial killer Ted Bundy entered the Chi Omega sorority house at Florida State University, murdered Margaret Bowman and Lisa Levy, and brutally attacked Kathy Kleiner Rubin and Karen Chandler. Kathy survived but Ted Bundy was far from the first thing she had survived.
This week on When Killers Get Caught, Brittany Ransom takes a deep dive into Kathy's remarkable story and her memoir, A Light in the Dark: Surviving More Than Ted Bundy. We examine the increasingly reckless Bundy who arrived in Florida near the end of his killing spree, what happened inside Chi Omega, the survivors who are too often overshadowed by Bundy's mythology, and the moment Kathy faced him again in court.
But most importantly, this is about what happened after Ted Bundy left the room.
Because Bundy may be part of Kathy Kleiner Rubin's story, but he doesn't get to own it.
The truth always leaves a trail and sometimes that trail leads straight back to the survivor who lived long enough to tell it.
