"I'm sure you know her history. She made a mistake, but she has led an exemplary life for more than 20 years now," Carter said in a handwritten note to Clinton on Jan. 10, 2001. "For her sake, and especially for the sake of her daughters, I hope you can find it in your heart to pardon her."

This Christian church is the congregation that Barack Obama and his family attends. The article mentions the active celebration of Kwanzaa which espouses the principles of the Symbionese Liberation Army. This church has what seems like an uncomfortably close relationship with the Nation Of Islam. Recently, Obama's wife Michelle made the comment “For the first time in my adult life being proud of America”. This curious cymicism is close to the attitude common with the Nation Of Islam and Louis Farrakhan. My guess is the wife Michelle Obama had more to do with the choice of the church (Oprah Winfrey is also a member). Here is the church website. http://www.tucc.org/
A few steps removed is Minnesota's own Representative Keith Ellison. Ellison is supporting Barak Obama. Ellison seemed to have a association or “affection” for the Nation of Islam and Louis Farrakhan that lasted until at least February 2000 when he made a speech mentioning Louis Farrakhan and a Soliah/Olson fund raiser “Ungagged 1”. http://presslord.com/speech.htm

Posted -23 sec ago
The family of Patricia Hearst is waiting to see how her terrorist kidnappers react to learning that their latest demand won't be met unless she is released unharmed.
Charles Gould, publisher of the Hearst-owned San Francisco Examiner, said Friday that, if Miss Hearst is freed, the Hearst Corp. will meet demands for an additional $4 million to bolster a $2 million free-food program for the needy set up at the kidnappers' insistence.
Gould said $2 million of the new money will be paid "immediately upon her release" and $2 million will be contributed in January, 1975.
Miss Hearst, a 20-year-old sophomore at the University of California at Berkley, was abducted Feb. 4 by members of the Symbionese Liberation Army (SLA).
The food program, called People in Need, began Friday with thousands of persons taking groceries, despite some confusion and violence that closed one of four distribution outlets in the San Francisco Bay area.
Gould spoke to reporters after the girl's father, Randolph Hearst, said he could not afford the new demand by the SLA. Hearst is chairman of the Hearst Corp. and editor and president of The Examiner.
To meet the original demand, Hearst put up $500,000 and the family's Hearst Foundation donated $1.5 million.
For sale: On this day in 1974, Sears was selling 35-mm Canonet cameras with automatic flashes for $119.98.
02-18-08 Telegraph Uk: “Patty Hearst - urban guerrilla brought to heel” click here
“Down the years there have been suggestions - some persuasive, some implausible - that Patty was rather less detached from the activist agenda of the time than she subsequently claimed. Jack Scott, a radical journalist who was close to the SLA's core leadership and became the group's unofficial historian, alleged, shortly before his death in 2001, that Ms Hearst had made contact with the SLA, and effectively arranged her own kidnapping. Lake Headley, a private investigator hired by the families of two other SLA members, further claimed that a year before the kidnapping she had visited a radical black convict, Donald DeFreeze, who later became the SLA's figurehead. Bill Harris, the only surviving member of the kidnap gang, says that Patty's embrace of the group was entirely voluntary and that he and some other SLA members actually opposed it.”
More defense nonsense. The Jack Scott claim when he was a day away from death of cancer. Then Soliah lawyer Susan Jordan made a rather simple error in the request for deposition which the judge caught. Jack Scott was conveniently deceased by the time of the revised deposition which was to be fast-tracked. At the time I wrote about how the time of death in terminal cancer can usually be easily determined. Basically the “Lite” or electrolytes get so out of balance that the organs can't operate and the body basically poisons itself. This is behind those “rush to the hospital” calls with terminal cancer. Inevitably the dying person is totally incoherent in those last dying days or hours. I couldn't find my comments on this immediately but Soliah in Context had a “Grist for the Mill” on this that I found on archive.org. I copied it http://jumbal.com/02-18-08Scott.html The source archive.org link is there but it's a very slow load.
As for the Lake Headly claim here is the wikipedia on DeFreeze http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_DeFreeze Note that a year before DeFreeze was still in Soledad prison. California prisons have detailed and meticulous identification procedures for prison vistors. Indeed Steve Soliah's albi by Emily Tobak was disproved when prison records showed she was at a prison visit when she claimed to be in bed with Steve Soliah. If it was found that Hearst had visited prisoners before her kidnapping it would have been huge news. At most it was hearsay, the quality of which was pretty bad.
Bill Harris “ the only surviving member of the kidnap gang” If Bill Harris can't even remember that his then wife Emily Montague (Harris) is telling “his side of the story” with six SLA members conveniently killed in the LA shootout.

02-08-08 Two more police officers killed by gunfire on 02-07-08 click here
The toll has been rising lately but but I get emails from the National Law Enforcement Memorial. http://www.nleomf.com/ In average year (excluding 1991/911) 150 + Police officers are killed in the line of duty. Around two-thirds are “transportation related” so there tends to be one per week killed by other “hostile” action, primarily gunfire. The number of incidents has been rising significantly in the last few years. With the one SWAT officer killed in LA Thursday, this is the first day I can remember in “modern times” that three law enforcement officers were killed by gunfire in a single calendar day. http://www.nleomf.org/TheMemorial/facts.htm

The Symbionese Liberation Army incident in 1974, too, got a lot of attention, and the SWAT team again was criticized, yes?
I'm actually building an exhibit in the museum on that very incident. It happened in May of 1974, when six members of the SLA holed up in a residence on 54th street in South L.A. and needed to be brought to justice for recent crimes, including the Patty Hearst kidnapping, the murder of Oakland school superintendent Marcus Foster, and more recently the robbery of Mel's Sporting Goods in Los Angeles. SWAT and FBI traced them to 1866 E. 54th Street. They were bullhorned 19 times the request to surrender. Then our SWAT team was met with gunfire from within the house. It was a lengthy and televised exchange. The house ultimately burned, and the remains of six people were later discovered. The belief was that the tear gas ignited the fire. The tear gas canisters then burned at a high temperature. Today the tear gas grenades burn at much lower rate.

A lot of good background info on the Hearst Castle.
The entrance fees were raised around 50% a few years back. It will not affect those making a “pilgrimage” as I hope to do someday, but it might deter repeat visitors.
As to the blast there the article states “And more visible. On Feb. 12, 1976, while Patty Hearst was on trial in Los Angeles in connection with her involvement with the Symbionese Liberation Army, a terrorist group called the New World Liberation Front bombed the balcony of one of the guest houses, causing about $1 million in damage.”
There were some reports placing Soliah/Olson in the area and someone who looked like James Kilgore at the site blast just before the explosion. If so, provisions of the Patriot Act override the statute of limitations so this can still be prosecuted. I have heard conflicting claims about weather Soliah and Kilgore were involved. One detail I heard was that the bomber “left a fecal deposit” as a statement. This was apparently cleaned up but such a “fecal deposit” today would be a prime source of usable DNA that would get someone convicted. The evidence cache should be reviewed for DNA evidence with the two prime suspects still in prison. It would become a “dumb criminal” classic if the perp were convicted because they decided to “make a statement” by “pooping”.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — In a Dec. 31 story about the release from prison of Sara Jane Moore, who attempted to kill President Ford in 1975, The Associated Press reported erroneously that she was involved with the Symbionese Liberation Army. Moore was involved with leftist political causes in the Bay area at the time, but her former defense attorney, Frank Bell, said he knew of no connection between Moore and the SLA.
From Solaih.com: “Detailed update of Moore's life in prison. Sara Jane Moore was the bookkeeper for the Hearst food giveaway. In a Playboy interview Moore boasted that she had a full set of Symbionese Liberation Army audio tapes and communiqués when arrested. In the Playboy interview Moore boasted of knowing people "very close to the SLA". While a fugitive Kathleen Ann Soliah used the alias "Sara Jane Olson. Note that like Moore's first name she used "Sara". I once checked on the Census Bureau and 75% of Sara(h) have the "h" at the end. During the March 2001 ABC 20/20 interview Soliah/Olson was asked about her choice of "Sara Jane". She cited a Bob Dylan song "Sarah Jane" which has "Sarah" spelled with an "h".”
