Patty Hearst

"This is not how I remember the case. I remember watching a number of shows
with my Dad where she was portrayed as a rebellious, deliquent, spoiled,
rich, white kid."
Patty's connections didn't do much for her sugar coated image as she graced
many magazine covers in camouflage holding a machine gun.

And for another view........ I remember thinking that it could be a rather
radicalizing experience to think you were this great gem to your family but that
they were unwilling to make any financial sacrifices or financial risks to hope
for your safe return. All we kept hearing was how the bulk of the assets
were tied up in trust................but a few incredulous journalists pointed
out that plenty of personal belongings (I believe mention was made of an
extensive private art collection) were NOT being carried out and sold.
Brought the concept of "poor little rich girl" home.
I was not the only one in my circle who "knew" that my parents or my family
would strip bank accounts, mortgage homes................to pay extraordinary
medical expenses, to raise bail, or to show a good faith sacrifice to buy
their child's life. Yep. Similar to the radicalizing experience of certain
journalists covering peaceful, legal, civil demonstrations who were mistaken
for participants instead of reporters and got to experience firsthand what
happened during and after the roundups by officers with tape over their
badges.....
Folks talk about the 60's but there was plenty of turmoil and pain in the 70's.
(Kent State was May 4, 1970..............and for many was the BEGINNING of a
political awakening as well as disillusionment).

At the time, I found the Stockholm syndrome idea hard to fathom.
But now, setting Patty aside, I can understand the possibility a little
better. Certainly children who have terrorizing parents still manage to love
them and warp their behavior a lot to try to please them. That sounds kind of
like the Stocklholm syndrome to me. So it seems there is a valid underpinning
for this concept, tied to basic human behavior.

However, one can not brainwash the brains behind the kidnapping.
