He is notoriously referred to as the Unabomber. He oversaw the Federal Bureau's lengthiest and most costly inquiry to date. He was extraordinary in every way, a true genius. Harvard is where he obtained his bachelor's degree in mathematics. He began attending the University of Michigan in 1962 and graduated with a master's and a doctorate in mathematics in 1964 and 1967.
A member of Kaczynski's dissertation committee named Maxwell Reade came to the conclusion that "maybe 10 or 12 people in the country understood" his dissertation. Kaczynski's PhD advisor, Allen Shields, referred to his work as the "best he has ever directed."
He was the University of California, Berkeley's youngest assistant professor of mathematics in teaching history.
Ted then tendered his resignation on June 30, 1969.
He constructed a secluded cabin outside Lincoln, Montana, after resigning. He reasoned that he could get by with very little money, without running water or electricity, and lead a simple existence. He began to feel that living in solitude and severing his ties to society was insufficient by 1978. Being self-sufficient was insufficient. He believed that the one thing he truly loved—nature—was being destroyed by technology.
He left twenty-three people injured and three dead.
This is where he really put the hurt on things. These bombs were sent by mail or delivered by hand. The bombs became increasingly sophisticated over time. On occasion, Kaczynski would affix unusual initials or false fingerprints to them.
One of his first explosives was dropped inside an American Airlines aircraft's cargo compartment. It was defective and failed to explode. It caused an emergency landing and generated smoke. Based on its potential explosive strength, the bomb would have "obliterated the plane" if it had exploded.
Kaczynski surrounded every bomb he mailed with deceptive clues. Initials cast into metal plates. Occasionally, tiny messages would be found within bombs that didn't explode. The boxes were sent by him using awkward $1 stamps. Among his a Sloan Wilson novel contained one of his bombs. Wood fragments and branches in other boxes.
He was practically hard to find because he didn't follow any obvious pattern and seemed to attack people at random. He was quite careful not to leave any fingerprints. The fingerprints of several of his later devices were eventually discovered by the FBI, but they did not match Kaczysnki.
There was nothing at all. even after Ted began about 20 years ago. That is, until Ted's brother's wife persuaded him to investigate his whereabouts further.
Ted was employed at his father's foam rubber firm in 1978, along with his brother. He was fired by his brother for sending derogatory letters to a female supervisor he was interested in dating.
Ted sent letters to newspapers and magazines in 1995 requesting that they publish his 35,000 word essay, Industrial Society and its Future. Later on, this was called the Unabomber Manifesto by David, his brother, observed the manifesto's writing style after reading it. He discovered letters Ted had sent to newspapers criticizing the effects of technology on people and the environment when going through old family records. At that moment, his brother employed a lawyer and a private investigator to obtain information that he would later provide to the FBI.
Any information leading to the Unabomber's identity would earn the FBI a million dollars. The issue with this is that the FBI had thousands of false leads and suspects to look through after numerous letters claiming to be this individual.
The only thing that went wrong with Ted's plan after 20 years was that he made any attempt to contact the media and that his brother was documenting the graphic details of the acts of terrorism he was doing all over the nation. If not, no one ever truly got to know him.
Prior to David's involvement, the FBI was certain that Kaczynski was a native of the Chicago region, had some ties to Salt Lake City, and had some ties to the San Francisco region in the 1990s.
Put differently, they possessed nothing. 20 years or more later.
His brother was the one who recognized him. who provided vital information to the FBI about his residence in Montana's remote country.
Nobody, in my opinion, could defend Ted Kaczynski's actions. It's blatantly inhumane and revolting.
