Eric Rudolph. On July 27, 1996, the world sat shocked to its core as a crudely made pipe bomb exploded in the middle of the crowded Centennial Olympic Park in Atlanta Georgia. 2 people were killed and over 100 people were injured. A bomb exploding in a park is terrorizing enough, but the timing of this bomb, One week into the 96 Summer Olympic games seemed to violate the Olympic spirit. It would take the FBI nearly 7 years to capture the Olympic bomber, and before his capture 3 more bombs would take the lives of 2 more people and injuring many others.
