Some authorities knew about what had happened and others had no idea. Holmes (1998, p. 10) states: “When Don Patehen, supervisor of the Tallahassee Police Department's Homicide and Assault Unit, interviewed Bundy regarding the 36 unsolved homicide victim cases, Ted calmly told the police officer veteran who could have added one dial the number." He also explained where he hid most of the bodies and that he sometimes returned to the decaying dead bodies and carried out sexual fantasies about the corpses. Authorities tried to find some of the bodies where Bundy he explained that they were buried, but nothing ever came of it. On January 24, 1989, Ted Bundy died in the electric chair
