Have you ever known someone in childhood who became infamous or notorious later?

Today’s episode — the third in our “New True Crime Books” series, features a captivating story of an ordinary woman in an extraordinary circumstance. Like many of us,Jamie Gehring grew up with an eccentric neighbor - we all know the type. But in Jamie’s case, her neighbor’s solitude and “quirkiness” were anything but benign. Her neighbor was Ted Kaczynski.

In her book and in our conversation, Jamie reckons with her memories of Ted; what does she do with the pleasant ones given all she knows now? This conversation is full of nuance, memories, and an exploration of the classic nature vs. nurture debate. And of course, how to maintain integrity in true crime storytelling .
