Summary

In 1976, 3 armed men kidnapped a bus full of kids in Chowchilla, California. Along with their bus driver, Ed Ray, the kids were in for a harrowing experience. But the kidnappings for ransom did not go as the kidnappers had planned. Join Mike and Morf as they discuss the Chowchilla kidnappings. The phone lines were so jammed with calls from worried parents that the kidnappers couldn't phone in their demands. In the meantime, the kids and the bus driver attempted a daring escape. 24-year-old Frederick Woods and brothers James and Rick Schoenfeld were quickly identified as the masterminds behind the kidnappings for ransom.
