Firstly you are confusing two different terms. "Parlay" is a gambling term, meaning "to use one's money, talent, or other assets..." (in Bundy's case this would be his knowledge of his actual crimes, to reveal his actions to authorities and to his victims' surviving loved ones, to reveal where bodies or parts were buried etc) "...to achieve a desired objective, as spectacular wealth or success" (or, in Bundy's case better jail accommodations, more jail privileges, to put off the day of his execution, etc.) "Parley" means "to speak, to discuss".
