Kaczynski to receive four life terms in plea deal
Theodore Kaczynski faces four life terms plus 30 years after a plea bargain on the eve of opening statements, ending an 18 year bombing campaign that disrupted air travel and killed three men while maiming two others. The former professor is to be sent to a high security prison, with victims and relatives expected to address the judge. Prosecutors describe him as a cold killer rather than a disturbed environmentalist.
