How many bombs did Ted Kaczynski send?

American domestic terrorist, Ted Kaczynski was charged for coming numerous crimes, largely bombings from 1978 to 1995. At the peak of his bad deeds, he killed three people and injured 23 more during a mass mail-bombing spree.

He terrorized the United States for years and became the focus of the FBI. At some point, he was on the top list of the FBI’s most wanted and was considered the person who made the Bureau spend their most expensive budget on a criminal.

In 1996, he was sentenced to life without parole after evading capture for almost 20 years. His brother, David received a $1 million reward from the FBI for assisting with his capture in 1996. The reward was funded by a Congressional appropriation for the Justice Department.

He conducted his first attacks in the late ’70s. It targeted Northwestern University in Illinois. The two bombings occurred on May 25, 1978, and May 9, 1979, and left two people injured. In November 1979, an altitude-triggered bomb he mailed went off aboard an American Airlines Flight. Twelve people suffered from smoke inhalation.
