Unabomber, DNA traces on the exhibits could reopen the never-ending case

It could be a turning point in the hunt for the attacker who terrorized Veneto and Friuli Venezia Giulia between 1994 and 2006

ROME – Unabomber, the never-ending case is not yet closed.

The identity of the attacker (or attackers) who terrorized Veneto and Friuli Venezia Giulia between 1994 and 2006 by detonating over 30 bombs has never been established.

How reports The Post the “new” traces of DNA would have been found on some hairs that were on an unexploded can of streamers found on March 6, 2000 in San Vito al Tagliamento, in the province of Pordenone; on an unexploded “egg bomb” found on 31 October 2000 in a supermarket in Portogruaro, in the province of Venice; on the insulating tape used to close a tube of concentrated tomato that exploded in the hand of a woman in the same supermarket in Portogruaro on 6 November 2000; and on the insulating tape of the unexploded bomb hidden in a tube of mayonnaise in Roveredo in Piano, in the province of Pordenone, on 17 November 2000.
