One of the most infamous cases in US history involves a a brilliant man who became disenchanted with the world as machines and technology began to replace the natural world that he loved so much.

Over a 17 year span, Theodore "Ted" Kaczynski sent 16 bombs, killing 3 and injuring 23, all in an effort to get revenge on those who built houses in his favorite meadow.

It wasn't until he wrote and shared his 35,000 word manifesto did Kaczynski finally leave enough evidence for law enforcement to track him down.

Listen in to learn how forensic linguistics provided the identity of a man who escaped capture for 18 long years.
