Castro went to Mexico to recruit men and money. One summer evening in 1956, he stole across the Rio Grande near McAllen, Texas.

But when Marion's brother-in-law was slugged one night, Cop Hater Richardson gleefully pounced on Hearst's notion that law-abiding Los Angeles was in the grip of a crime wave. As a result of City Editor Richardson's fearsome crime statistics (including the number of sidewalk spitters), the Los Angeles police department was doubled at a cost of millions a year. When Hearst talked of promoting him to managing editor, Richardson...
