A man who injured 30 people with a pressure cooker bomb has been trying to train inmates in Manhattan’s Metropolitan Correction Center to follow in his footsteps.

Ahmad Khan Rahimi was convicted in October of charges, which include using a weapon of mass destruction and bombing a public place when he set off a pressure-cooker bomb, which sent shrapnel ripping through 30 people on 23rd Street in Chelsea.
