I was just reading about this. What a bizarre story.

For those who, like me, only just heard about this guy the cleveland.com story covers a lot.

Ted was in my World History class, sophomore year. In 1977 when I was a candidate for Council I went over to our class secretary's house (Sue Verdova Mandrella) to review the names of classmates coming to our 10th reunion. Under the "F" was FBI! Sue said they were coming to see if Ted showed up!

A movie adaptation of the story would seem to write itself.
