College Humor wasn't wrong in placing these plot points under the same umbrella as sexual assualt or violation in some fashion. And yet those films would be playing on my cable tv any given weekend.
I have a passion for music and when a song hits just right it must be shared. I often listen to mashups and covers, which brings out a special flavor to the ear. So with this series I get that chance to give props to thise beautiful piece.
Even though my TBR is endless as is, this one will be moved up in the line as one of my books acknowledging Women's Month this March.
This fictional novel takes the true crime story the media (and the judge) tried to spin which soley focused on and glamorized a despicable man, and even in court, down played the savagery in his long list of attcks and murders. I must say that the individual who **uses the court proceedings of a slaughtered 12yr girl, top propose to his latest *hybristophiliac love interest, is not someone I would call a Bright Young Man.
Just as Judge Edward Cowart followed the jury's finding, sentencing Bundy to death for "the sorority killings", this was his parting words:
"Take care of yourself young man. I say that to you sincerely - take care of yourself. It is a tragedy for this court to see such a total waste, I think, of humanity that I've experienced in this court. You're a bright young man. You would have made a good lawyer and I would have loved o have you practice in front of me - but you went another way, partner."**
Knoll does a beautiful job of bringing many questions to the forefront. Questions like, WTF. This event is one of many but certainy one of the most publicized and romantized to a bizarre level. He killed and attacked dozens of women and grew increasingly unhinged in his attacks, yet he is played by Zac Efron in the Netflix retelling. Telling women everywhere that it doesnt matter what he does as long as he is "good looking".
*Shout out to my girl @bozevstheworld on Youtube who hates hybristophiliacs almost as much as I do lol Peep this clip she found of some special cases.
