Hunting Eric Rudolph: Inside the Investigation

Worldwide attention is focused on a manhunt based in the remote mountainous regions of Pakistan and Afghanistan, targeting Osama bin Laden. Yet, recent history holds lessons and insight from an amazing fugitive story based on American soil, seeking the capture of the notorious Olympic Park Bomber, Eric Rudolph. Henry Schuster, senior producer of CNN's Investigative Unit, expertly chronicles one of the most massive manhunts of the modern era in Hunting Eric Rudolph. Schuster covered the entire case and draws many lessons from a fascinating situation that he argues could have been avoided from the very beginning. Schuster, who specializes in the coverage of terrorism, will discuss the case, as well as the threat of domestic terrorism and what connection or parallels exist with al Qaeda.
