Unabomber Ted Kaczynski's Death Ruled as Suicide in Federal Prison.
Ted Kaczynski, the "Unabomber," previously attempted suicide in jail by hanging himself with his own underwear after a failed bid to fire his lawyers. He was caught and sentenced to more than four life terms in May 1998 for his 17-year bombing spree that killed three and injured 23 others. Kaczynski was found unresponsive in his cell on Saturday and was pronounced dead at a hospital later that morning, with multiple sources suggesting he committed suicide. He had been moved to a medical facility in North Carolina in December 2021 due to late-stage cancer.
