What this episode covers
The 70's were a crazy time to be alive. Between the war in Vietnam, dozens of political assassinations, and hundreds, if not thousands, of domestic bombings, it seemed as though you couldn't go a day without some new form of armed, radical action. However, the most famous came when, in 1974, Patty Hearst, who was raised in ultra-rich high society, was kidnapped by members of the Symbionese Liberation Army. The country watched as she sent messages to her family, and police instigated a massive manhunt. However, no one expected that Patty herself would rob a bank in Northern California alongside her kidnappers, and those images would go on to live in infamy. What followed was years of bombings, shootouts, and brainwashing. Still, no one knows the answer to what actually happened to Patty Hearst?
