Hearst Grilling Continues In Federal Bank Robbery Trial
Patricia Hearst faced cross examination over her 1974 SLA kidnapping and bank robbery tale. Prosecutor Browning seeks details on the September 1974 to September 1975 period, while defense lawyer Bailey blocks questions about that year, asserting fear and coercion shaped her actions. Hearst testified of ongoing fear from SLA remnants and FBI threats, and described abduction, rape, and captivity highlights. The judge limited cross examination, and the jury heard a May 1974 SLA shootout tape.
