Unabomber Ted Kaczynski Found Dead In Prison


Convicted terrorist Ted Kaczynski better known as the Unabomber was found dead inside his prison cell in a Federal North Carolina.

Kaczynski died at the age of 81 and at the time of his death he was serving a life sentence after pleading “guilty to setting 16 explosions that killed three people and injured 23 others in various parts of the country between 1978 and 1995.”

Kaczynski gained his moniker the Unabomber after he threatened to bomb more victims if the Washington Post and the New York Times refused to publish his manifesto titled Industrial Society and Its Future

Before his path of terror, Kaczynski was an early recipient of the MKULTRA program when he attended Harvard.

Here’s what Fox News reported:

Ted Kaczynski, the convict known as the Unabomber, was found dead in his prison cell Saturday morning, according to multiple reports. He was 81.

Kaczynski was found dead around 8 a.m. at a federal prison in North Carolina, a Bureau of Prisons spokesperson said. A cause of death was not immediately known.

He had been moved to the federal prison medical facility in North Carolina in December 2021 after spending two decades in a federal Supermax prison in Colorado for a series of bombings that targeted scientists.

Kaczynski was serving life without the possibility of parole following his 1996 arrest at the primitive cabin where he was living in western Montana. He pleaded guilty to setting 16 explosions that killed three people and injured 23 others in various parts of the country between 1978 and 1995.

Here’s  what ABC News reported:

Ted Kaczynski, the convicted terrorist known as the Unabomber, was found dead in his prison cell Saturday morning, according to a Federal Bureau of Prisons spokesperson. He was 81.

Kaczynski was previously in a maximum security facility in Colorado but was moved to a medical facility in North Carolina in December 2021 due to poor health.

Kaczynski, who went nearly 20 years without being captured until his arrest in 1996, was considered America’s most prolific bomber.

In 1995, before he was identified as the Unabomber, he demanded newspapers to publish a long manuscript he had written, saying the killings would continue otherwise. Both the New York Times and Washington Post published the 35,000-word manifesto later that year at the recommendation of the U.S. Attorney General and the director of the FBI.
