I talked with Peter about bank robberies in California in the 1970's through the 1990's and why it was the bank robbery capital of the country. Peter's book is Norco 80 about a deadly robbery in CA in 1980. https://www.amazon.com/Norco-80-Spectacular-Robbery-American/dp/1640092129 Learn more about your ad choices.
