Summary

Within three hours of beginning the search, investigators found a three-ring notebook. Investigator Sachtleben later said of his findings, and I quote: “I also observed notebooks that contain what I recognize to be diagrams and notes that are consistent with the manufacture of destructive devices such as pipe bombs. Ten three-ring binders. These binders contain page after page of meticulous writings and sketches which I recognize to be diagrams of explosive devices. These diagrams depict cross-sections of pipes and electrical circuitry commonly used with boxes which could be used to contain, conceal and transport explosive devices. The notebooks also contain hand-written notes in Spanish and English which describe, in part, chemical compounds which can be used in various combinations to create explosive charges for use in explosive devices.

I am your humble host, Thomas Rosaland Weiburg Thune.

It has been quite the journey covering the

0:57.3

Unabomber, a serial killer who does not fit any mould. He stands apart from all other serial

1:05.9

killers I have covered on this podcast all these years. He was not a sex killer who hunted pretty girls.

1:13.6

He could torture and kill, nor was he a homosexual killer who did the same thing to young men

1:20.6

and boys. Neither was he a killer who simply thrived on domination and control over his victims.

1:28.9

But he was probably a sadist who found pleasure in causing pain and suffering,

1:34.6

but not indiscriminately.

1:36.9

He targeted very specific people whom he harbored a burning hatred towards.

1:43.8

He also did not care if his bombs killed innocent bystanders.

1:48.6

To him, human life was apparently not very valuable.

1:53.4

At the same time, he saw himself as a prophet of sorts that would lead a revolution to save

mankind. He was a loner, a recluse, a genius,

a modern-day Thoreau, and of course a terrorist and serial killer. Tonight, dear listener, I
