Unabomber Ted Kaczynski murdered three people and injured 23 more with his mail bombs. The Unabomber sent his first mailbomb in 1978 and escaped justice for nearly 20 years before his family tipped off the FBI in 1996.
The court has ordered the Unabomber to pay $15 million in restitution to his victims, starting with the auction of materials seized from his Montana cabin.

The court has ordered the Unabomber to pay $15 million in restitution to his victims, starting with the auction of materials seized from his Montana cabin.
An online auction of "Unabomber" Ted Kaczynski's personal items was set to begin Wednesday, with proceeds to compensate some of his victims.
The online auction will run through June 2, the U.S. Marshals Service said last week. Among about 60 items up for sale are personal documents such as driver's licenses, birth certificates and checks; academic transcripts; typewriters; and "more than 20,000 pages of written documents, including the original handwritten and typewritten versions" of Kaczynski's manifesto, authorities said.
The auction will be conducted by the General Services Administration, the Marshals Service said. A catalog of the items will be available on the GSA's auction website when the sale begins.

I Don't Want to Bid in Unabomber Auction
+4if the funds go to the victims, I am all for it. I personally don't have the cash to burn on junk like this but I'm sure someone will. It's about time the actions of criminals start being punished fairly and some kind of monetary compensation is given the the victims. We need to do more, more to protect the innocent and punish the criminals more harsh
You just affirmed, you're NOT my W-1!
LOL
If I won an item I would unceremoniously destroy it...
