520 "Norco '80 tells the story of how five heavily armed young
men--led by an apocalyptic born-again Christian--attempted
a bank robbery that turned into one of the most violent
criminal events in U.S. history, forever changing the face
of American law enforcement. Part action thriller and part
courtroom drama, Norco '80 transports the reader back to
the Southern California of the 1970s, an era of predatory
evangelical gurus, doomsday predictions, megachurches, and
soaring crime rates, with the threat of nuclear
obliteration looming over it all. In this riveting true
story, a group of landscapers transformed into a murderous
gang of bank robbers armed to the teeth with military-
grade weapons. Their desperate getaway turned the
surrounding towns into war zones. When it was over, three
were dead and close to twenty wounded; a police helicopter
was forced down from the sky, and thirty-two police
vehicles were destroyed by thousands of rounds of ammo.
The resulting trial shook the community to the core,
raising many issues that continue to plague society today:
from the epidemic of post-traumatic stress disorder within
law enforcement to religious extremism and the
militarization of local police forces." -- Dust jacket.
