Rudolph's most famous attack was a bombing at the [[Atlanta Olympics]], which killed Alice Hawthorne and injured her daughter and 110 other spectators. The attack was originally blamed on the hero security guard who found the bag, [[Richard Jewell]], in a horrible case of trial by media. When it was recognized Rudolph was behind the attack, he was placed on the [[FBI]]'s [[most wanted list]]. He also bombed 2 abortion clinics, killing 2 (including an off duty policeman hiring himself out as a security guard), and a Gay and Lesbian night club, injuring 5.
