Unabomber Chronicles: The Unabomber on Trial | Episode 7

  • Summary

  • The trial of Ted Kaczynski, aka the Unabomber, was a defining moment in U.S. criminal history. But beyond the headlines and the horror of his bombings, this case raised unsettling questions about justice, ideology, and mental health.

    In this episode, we explore:

    🔎 The massive FBI investigation that led to his arrest.

    ⚖️ How Kaczynski clashed with his own legal team to reject an insanity plea.

    🧠 The psychological impact of his chillingly calm courtroom demeanor.

    📜 The role of his anti-technology ideology in shaping the trial.

    📢 How the media and public shifted their perception of him throughout the case.

    Kaczynski wanted the world to see him as a man of conviction, not a mentally ill criminal. But was his refusal to plead insanity an act of control, or proof that his beliefs consumed him?
