For the right price, you could be the proud owner of Unabomber Ted Kaczynski's iconic sunglasses and hoodie. The US Marshals are auctioning off Kaczynski's personal effects with the profits to go to Kaczynski's victims. The auction — which includes his university diplomas, tools, books, and even the original handwritten and typed "Unabom Manifesto" — runs until June 2. From a US government press release:
"The U.S. Marshals Service has been given a unique opportunity to help the victims of Theodore Kaczynski's horrific crimes," said U.S. Marshal Albert Nájera of the Eastern District of California. "We will use the technology that Kaczynski railed against in his various manifestos to sell artifacts of his life. The proceeds will go to his victims and, in a very small way, offset some of the hardships they have suffered."
