wikipedia notes: In April 1974, following the Hibernia Bank robbery in San Francisco, U.S. Attorney General William B. Saxbe publicly stated that Patricia Hearst was "not a reluctant participant" and labeled her a "common criminal" . These remarks were made shortly after surveillance footage showed Hearst wielding a firearm during the robbery and identifying herself as "Tania," the alias given to her by the Symbionese Liberation Army (SLA) .
