Summary
Patty Hearst has just been arrested for the Hibernia Bank robbery, and the prosecution has a very solid case. First, they have photos of Patty robbing the joint. Second, they have tapes of her confessing to the crime. And third, America really, really hates a rich girl breaking bad.
But Patty’s new lawyer, F. Lee Bailey, thinks they can win this. They just need to take a risk and put Patty on the stand. If the jury hears her side, there’s no way they won’t acquit – and if they don’t … well, they’ll figure that out later.
