Patty Hearst 40th Anniversary Of Her Infamous Arrest
On this date in 1975, Patty Hearst was arrested in San Francisco for her role in the Hibernia Bank robbery that took place earlier in the year.
Hearst -- who argued she was brainwashed during the time she was held hostage by the Symbionese Liberation Army -- was eventually sentenced to seven years in prison, but had her sentence commuted by President Jimmy Carter after serving 22 months.
She was later pardoned by President Bill Clinton.
