Kaczynski’s Cabin to Be Shipped to Sacramento for Bombing Trial
The tiny cabin from which Unabomber suspect Theodore Kaczynski allegedly conducted his 18-year bombing rampage will be shipped to Sacramento this morning.
Kaczynski’s defense was making arrangements Monday night to move the cabin to Sacramento in its entirety. Defense lawyers want to use the dark, cramped shack to give jurors an insight into their client’s mind.
Officials at Malmstrom Air Force Base in Montana said the cabin was to be loaded on a flatbed truck this morning and trucked to Sacramento.
Prosecution spokeswoman Leesa Brown confirmed that the government had released the cabin to the defense.
Kaczynski is charged in the deaths of two men and the maiming of two others. If convicted in the last of the bombings--the only one to occur after the federal death penalty was reinstated--he could face execution.
The trial is in its fourth week of jury selection.
