Ep. 50 - Running Away with my Hearst
Today Lauren brings us the tale of the kidnapping of Patricia Hearst, granddaughter of newspaper tycoon and policitican William Randolph Hearst.

There's ransom, brainwashing, an attempted bank heist and then the police make some arrests.... but who they arrest is quite interesting.
