15. The Patty Hearst Kidnapping

Patty Hearst was the heiress to a multi-million-dollar media company. In 1974, when reports emerged saying she’d been captured by the Symbionese Liberation Army, the world held its breath. But no one could have expected what happened next. This week, Laura digs into the details of the case, analysing what exactly happened to Patty during her time with the SLA and whether her decision to join their “fight against the capitalist state” was a true reinvention of herself or simply a bid for survival.
