- Synopsis
- Between 1940 and 1957, 33 bombs--strategically placed in Grand Central, Penn Station, Radio City Music Hall, Macys and other populous areas of New York--paralyzed the city, sending shockwaves of fear through an unsuspecting public. George Metesky, the “Mad Bomber,” unleashed a reign of terror that reverberated through Americas social, legal, and political landscape, ultimately spurring the birth of modern criminal profiling when a crime psychiatrist was called in to assist in the manhunt. Compelling historical true crime, The Mad Bomber of New York is the gripping tale of two individuals engaged in a deadly game of hide-and-seek, with the city of New York caught in the crosshairs.
