Early life

Rosa was born in 1982 to Carole Anne Boone and Ted Bundy. It was, however, not a typical family since her father was on death row awaiting execution in Florida State Prison. Her conception has always been controversial.

Carol and Ted's love story

Rosa's parents met in 1974. They were both working in the Department of Emergency Services in Olympia, Washington. Carol had been married twice before and was in the middle of her second divorce when she met Ted.

Carol had a son, James, at the time. Ted was still dating Elizabeth "Liz" Kloepfer, and therefore, did not date her. The two were friends for years before dating. They continued with their relationship even after his initial arrest with Carole believing in his innocence throughout the trial.

In one of the court sessions, Carol was a character witness for the notorious killer. She was by his side throughout his trial. After his conviction, Carol assisted him to escape prison. He ended up in Florida, where he killed three more women.
