Summary:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Patricia Hearst, known at the time only as the heiress to the Hearst newspaper empire, was kidnapped in February 1974 by a little known radical group called the Symbionese Liberation Army. In the days that followed, as the SLA laid out conditions for Hearst\u2019s release, members of Peoples Temple offered themselves as hostages in exchange for her freedom. This tape includes a number of stories about the aftermath of the kidnapping, including one television news report of the Temple offer.<\/p>\n

The tape opens with a short, non-contextual exchange between two unknown members of Peoples Temple about the performance of Bob Davis, a Temple member who would die in Jonestown.<\/p>\n
