Eric Rudolph is an American terrorist who has been convicted for a series of bombings including the one at the Atlanta’s Centennial Olympic Park in 1996 which led to the death of two people and injury of over hundred. He was also convicted for bombing an abortion clinic in Atlanta, a women’s clinic in Birmingham and a lesbian nightclub in Atlanta which led to the death and injury of more people. He was charged in 1998 and a massive manhunt was launched to capture him. He was also placed in the FBI's Ten Most Wanted Fugitive list. However, a skilled outdoorsman, he manged to evade the authorities for five years before being ultimately caught by a rookie policeman. He subsequently agreed to a plea bargain – to save himself from death sentence – and pled guilty to the charges against him in all four bombings. He is currently serving four life terms at the ADX Florence Supermax prison near Florence, Colorado.
