Unabomber’s Fatal Mistake | How a Manifesto Led to His Capture Part 2 | Profiling Evil

22 minutes

For years, the FBI chased a ghost. The Unabomber’s bombs left little forensic evidence, and his attacks appeared random—until he made a crucial mistake. In 1995, Ted Kaczynski insisted on publishing his manifesto, Industrial Society and Its Future, believing it would justify his violent ideology. Instead, it exposed him.
In this episode, we reveal how forensic linguistics, behavioral profiling, and one heartbreaking family betrayal led to the unmasking of America’s most elusive terrorist. Could his own words have been his greatest weakness all along? Don’t miss this gripping analysis of one of the most intense FBI manhunts in history.
