Lifelong Democrat Richardson gave only halfhearted support to such Hearst causes as I Am An American Day and the career of Marion Davies. 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.
