Similarities Between Ted Bundy, Lamar Johnson And The Zodiac Killer

The definition of justice is “just behavior or treatment”, a synonym would be “fairness” or “equity”. Although this is the definition of justice, these words do not come to mind in many serial killer cases. Some cases, such as the Ted Bundy, Lamar Johnson, and the Zodiac killer, the victims never received equity or fairness due to the hints waisted and unsolved suspects.
