Product Description
THE UNABOMBER recounts how, for 17 years, a gifted mathematician lived a hermits existence in rural Montana and waged a war against innocent Americans. Ted Kaczynski fastidiously prepared bombs and sent them to the mailboxes academics, airline officials and advertising executives seemingly at random. For almost 17 years, Kaczynski was known as the Unabomber, an unknown phantom whose identity and motives baffled the investigators trying desperately to identify him and track him down. He managed to reach mythical staus in the press. It reached it’s zenith when the New York Times and Washington Post printed Kaczynski’s "Manifesto," a rambling anti-technology rant. The exposure proved to be his downfall. This program presents the story of an American Anti-hero who was ultimately brought down by his own family. The brother who had looked up to his brilliant older sibling recognized the crazed hand writings in the papers and felt compelled to turn Kaczynski in. The program presents interviews with those closest to the case and to Kaczynski , including FBI profilers, the law enforcement officers that arrested Kaczynski, the leader of the UNABOMB Task Force, a psychology professor, an analyst of Kaczynski ‘s writings, Kaczynski harvard roomate, friends of Kaczynski and the prosecutor in the case.
