Both agreed that they had disposed of the body together.Ĭlark has always claimed that Bundy and Murray committed the murders and he was merely Bundy's fall guy.Ĭlark's trial was a pitch-black portrait of the San Fernando Valley underworld of the late 1970s, a world in which Bundy and Clark went on endless sexual adventures. Bundy had hired the girl for Clark's birthday. Bundy claimed Clark shot a prostitute in the head while the prostitute was in the act of fellatio. That murder took place in a car parked behind a gas station in East Hollywood. Later, Bundy also admitted that she had been present during one of the murders for which Clark was charged. Bundy eventually confessed to that murder but claimed it was self-defense.
Shortly before going to police Bundy, who worked as a nurse, had shot to death, stabbed and beheaded another lover, Jack Murray.
Bundy claimed initially that she knew nothing of the murders, "only what (Clark) told me". All had been shot with a gun Bundy had purchased. The case seemed to be solved after Bundy, a divorcee with two children living in the San Fernando Valley, went to police claiming that her lover, Clark, had told her he had killed several young women. The victims were young prostitutes or runaways. Bundy and Doug Clark became known as "The Sunset Strip Killers" after being convicted of a series of murders in Los Angeles during the late spring and early summer of 1980.
