This application is intended as an educational and research resource. It is not designed to prove that any missing person or event is directly tied to Ted Bundy, and it should not be treated as a substitute for primary-source review, investigative judgment, or official case findings.
The timeline and supporting records have been compiled from well-known public sources, archival documents, case materials, and secondary research. Every effort has been made to present the information accurately, but historical records can conflict, and human error in transcription, interpretation, or source data remains possible.
To keep the working dataset focused and manageable, the missing-person comparison layer currently includes only female missing persons from 1950 through 1989. Additional categories, including Jane Doe records, are planned for a later release.
Probability labels are comparative tools, not conclusions. They reflect date and location relationships within the dataset and are meant to support review and discussion rather than establish culpability or confirm a direct connection.
Road routes are visual approximations based on modern mapping and present-day roads. They are included to illustrate a plausible route between points for geographic context only. The actual road network, traffic patterns, and available travel options at the time may have been materially different.
At present, the application includes confirmed Bundy-related people and selected missing-person records that fit the project scope. Because the source universe is intentionally limited, the absence of a person, event, route, or relationship from this tool should not be interpreted as evidence that no connection exists.
Dates, addresses, and location groupings may also reflect source ambiguity, generalized locations, or later editorial normalization for mapping purposes. Users should consult the cited records and underlying documents whenever a point is material to analysis.
