He lives in a ten by twelve cell. He escaped the death penalty. Hes given cooking tips to a secret agent and written a screed on how Oklahoma bomber Timothy McVeigh got it wrong.

In short, hes full of gratuitous advice on how to run the world.

Hes Unabomber Ted Kaczynski one of societys most obnoxious.

His biggest worry? People will call him crazy.

He was born Theodore John Kaczynski in Chicago, on the 22nd of May 1942.

He has one younger brother, David.

His mother Wanda was widowed in 1990 when her husband Richard learned he had terminal cancer and took his own life.

Wanda and David were left to wonder how this son and brother evolved from brilliant academic to Americas most wanted terrorist.

His mother had to face the cruel reality that her firstborn bombed, killed and maimed innocent people for nearly eighteen years in a mindless crusade against progress.
