Found the name I couldn't remember yesterday:  James Kilgore.  He is still at large, and has been for 27 years.  Heck, he could live next door to any one of us, I suppose.  Michael Bortin is the most recent fugitive tracked down.  This trial looks like it's going to be huge, when and if it ever gets underway.   Could be almost as much hype as OJ's.

I still have problems with Patty Hearst testifying.  She's calling them all "dangerous radicals," and she was right in there with them.  True Sara Olson never yet paid for her involvement in the failed pipe bombing, but she appears to be as reformed as Patty Hearst seems to be.  They were formerly sisters in crime, and that, combined with Patty Hearst's wealth-advantage, is a scary thing to me when it comes to giving fair trials.  What on earth does Patty Hearst have to gain from all of this except heightened exposure that will further her aspirations in acting, I wonder.  I hope that those bringing Sara to trial for Myrna Opdahl's murder have more evidence than just Patty Hearst.
