About

Ruchell "Cinque" Magee is an African-American man who pled guilty to aggravated kidnapping in the Marin County Civic Center attacks in San Rafael, California. Judge Harold Haley was killed in that attack, as were all of those involved in taking him and other hostages from the courthouse, with the exception of Magee—the only Black survivor of the August 7, 1970 event.
