Myrna Opsahl

Myrna Opsahl (December 13, 1932 – April 21, 1975) was a church worker, a mother of four, and a murder victim of the Symbionese Liberation Army. She died in April 1975 during a Carmichael, California, bank robbery. Newspaper heiress and kidnapping/brainwashing victim Patty Hearst was a driver of one of the getaway cars, along with Wendy Yoshimura, during this robbery.

Her death led to a lengthy campaign for justice, which finally in 2002 led to murder charges against Emily Harris, William Harris, Kathleen Soliah (a.k.a. Sara Jane Olson), Michael Bortin, and James Kilgore for the murder. Emily Harris admitted to firing the fatal shotgun blast, but claimed it was an accident.
