Another story broke the day terrorists attacked the World Trade Centre. The word watched in horror as passenger planes crashed into the World Trade Center on Sept. 11, 2001. But there was another story that made headlines that infamous morning. A 30-year-old cold case was solved. In his book "In Plane Sight:Before 911" former Toronto Star crime reporter Bob Mitchell tells the untold story behind the international search and arrest of a former black militant, who lived a double life as a respected teacher, model citizen, community activist and mentor of trouble youth in America's largest city. How Patrick Critton was captured just days before 911 is as amazing a story as his intriguing life journey. It's a tale of a rebel boy, who grew up in poverty, went to university, became an underground cell leader, a bank robber, a hijacker, and a Cuban sugar cane farmer before turning his life around.
With court documents, interviews, newspaper files and Critton's own words, Mitchell paints a revealing portrait of a fugitive, who spent three decades running away from his own conscience..
