nearly 20 years, a former professor of mathematics terrorized the United States, sending mail bombs to scientists and entrepreneurs. After Ted Kaczynski passed his brother, a terrorist, is widely known as the "Unabomber," admitted schizophrenic and sentenced to life imprisonment. Compatriots wrote him touching letters, and in 1996 the magazine «People» Kaczynski named one of the 25 most interesting people in the world. And now Ted asked the court to return his property, including one of the bombs. Most of the belongings "Unabomber" wants to convey to the University of Michigan for "serious study by researchers»

Now Kaczynski wants the government gave him back the books, personal papers and chemicals, which he used to make bombs. Ted gave the court in Sacramento list of all books, documents and personal belongings that were confiscated from him after his arrest. The Court has yet to respond to the request of the killer, but most likely will be denied.

Theodore Kaczynski was born in 1942 in Chicago. His mathematical abilities were seen as early as elementary school. He graduated from high school early, then got diplomas of Michigan and Harvard University. In 1967 he became an assistant professor of one of the most prestigious US universities - the University of California at Berkeley. Colleagues and friends predicted his brilliant career in mathematics. And in 1969 he suddenly resigned and disappeared. It turned out he was disappointed in modern civilization and wanted to return people back to nature, however, a very peculiar way. From 1976 to 1995, he terrorized his country, sending mail bombs to scientists and entrepreneurs related to their activities with computers, airlines or exploitation of natural resources.



Victims of the "Unabomber" became vice president of the largest advertising firms in the oil company «Exxon», Thomas Mosser; "Chief forester" America and the leader of the largest private firm for the sale of timber and owner Gilbert Murray Computer Corporation and renowned engineer Hugh Campbell. The terrorist made disabled pioneer in the study of the microwaves Angelakosa Diogenes, a brilliant chemist Buckley Krista, renowned geneticist and researcher Charles Epstein's syndrome, a leading specialist in the study of American artificial intelligence and developer of several programming languages ​​Gelentera David, president of airline «United Airlines» Percy Wood and many others. FBI a reward of a million dollars on his head. To search were involved even psychics.

In 1995, the "Unabomber" wrote an open letter in «The New York Times» and «The Washington Post». He promised to stop the attacks if the newspaper will publish its manifesto. After much consultation with the FBI journalists agreed. Bob Guccione, publisher and multimillionaire «Penthouse», pleaded terrorist publish the work in his journal, and offered him a monthly column. Pretty soon, the manifesto was released in book form and in great demand. Boston cultures-terrorist group "Church of Euthanasia" even started presidential campaign "Unabomber" with a full set of posters and propaganda material: selling cars bumper stickers and slogans "Smile! You are under observation "and" There is no alternative - vote for the Unabomber! "A few months after the publication of the FBI turned a David Kaczynski, who pointed out the similarity of the manifesto" Unabomber "with the letters of his brother, Ted Kaczynski. Bureau of Investigation interested and soon discovered became legendary terrorist in squalid hut in the mountains of Montana - he lived by hunting and fishing, and his home had no electricity, not even a bathroom and toilet (this is especially shocked Americans). The trial lasted two years Kaczynski, then Ted admitted schizophrenic and sentenced to life imprisonment.

When Ted was in the chamber, I began to receive letters from their fellow citizens. And the letters keep coming almost weekly. Theodore Kaczynski careful in their personal relationships. For example, he never answers the romantic American women, who are attacking his requests for an intimate correspondence. Some of these women familiarly called him "darling Ted" and some officially referred to as "Mr. Kaczynski».

Yet he wrote scholars and students of mathematics, asking him to meet the challenge. They were, he replied that his theoretical mathematics are still interested. Sometimes he writes insane and radical Christians. They agree with his views, but the dream to save his soul and urged him to repent, but this does not answer Kaczynski.

One day he received a letter from the applicant at the Harvard Divinity School. The young man wanted to impress the selection committee and asked "Unabomber" give him a recommendation for admission. & Quot; ... This is the first time I write, and I think I will fulfill your request ... You are incompetent as an analyst. However, I can tell all the philosophers whose works I have read. You are politically incorrect, therefore I recommend you at Harvard Divinity School. Maybe even your parish will make a breath of fresh air in this musty institution ... & quot ;, - said Ted.

But most of all he writes ordinary Americans from the province. They want to support him and send him gifts - stamps, calendars, postcards, even beer mugs. They understand complex written academic language manifesto as they could. They write to him about his loneliness, his measured and incredibly boring life in the American West, of his powerlessness to change anything ...
