Harold J. Haley (November 14, 1904 � August 7, 1970) was a Superior Court judge in Marin County, California. He was taken hostage in his courtroom, along with several others, during the course of a trial, and murdered during the attempted escape of his captors with their hostages.

On August 7, 1970, Jonathan Jackson brought guns into Judge Haley's courtroom, where San Quentin inmate James McClain was on trial. McClain was freed along with two other San Quentin inmates, Ruchell Magee and William Christmas, who were present at the trial as witnesses. Jackson and the prisoners took Haley and four other people hostage and attempted to escape.

Haley, Jackson, McClain and Christmas were killed as the abductors attempted to drive away from the courthouse. Haley was apparently hit by fire from a sawed-off shotgun that had been fastened to his neck with adhesive tape by the abductors. Two of the other hostages were wounded.[1]

Photographs of the event were taken by news photographers Jim Kean and Roger Bockrath.[1][2] The best-known photograph by Bockrath shows McClain leading out the hostages, pointing a revolver at police with his right hand while holding a shotgun taped around Haley's neck with his left hand.

The police investigation determined that the shotgun used had been owned by Angela Davis. Charges were brought against Davis and Magee, the sole survivor among the abductors. The case was appealed during trial in Magee v. Superior Court (34 Cal. App.3d 201) (1973) on the issue of permitting former U.S. Attorney General Ramsey Clark to join the defense team. Davis was acquitted while Magee was convicted for Haley's kidnapping and murder and sentenced to life imprisonment, which he is serving in Corcoran State Prison.


Johathan Jackson was George Jacksons younger brother. (Jackson of Soledad Brother & San Quentin Six infamy) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Jackson_(Black_Panther)

I have the honor of helping to ensure that Hugo Pinell, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hugo_Pinell last of the San Quentin Six, remains locked up in CA's Pelican Bay State Prison.

The violence of these individuals and the Black Panthers was the worst of what the Sixties turned into as socialist dogma came to the fore front in that era.

We should never forget that people like Barack Obama and the leaders of the Democratic party see these violent people as heros of the revolution, to be held up as an inspiration.
