The St. Paul Police Federation is fighting Sara Jane Olson's efforts to return to St. Paul after she's paroled Tuesday.
The union wrote to California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger on Wednesday to oppose her return, saying she committed her crimes in California, so she should serve her entire sentence there.
Federation President David Titus questions whether Olson's neighbors in St. Paul would report her if she violated parole.
The Los Angeles police union raised similar objections Monday.
Olson has served seven years in prison for attempted bombings of Los Angeles police cars in the 1970s and the shooting death of a bank customer in 1975.
Olson, who was formerly known as Kathleen Soliah, was charged in 1975 with attempting to bomb police cars with the Symbionese Liberation Army, a group best known for kidnapping newspaper heiress Patricia Hearst. The SLA was an urban guerrilla group started in 1973 when a handful of college-educated children from middle-class families with an ex-convict leader took up arms and nicknames and adopted revolutionary rhetoric.
But Olson vanished soon after she was charged and reinvented herself as a housewife - changing her name to Sara Jane Olson, marrying a doctor and becoming a mother of three in St. Paul, Minn. She was arrested in 1999 after FBI agents acted on a tip from TV's "America's Most Wanted."
In 2001, Olson pleaded guilty to the attempted bombings. She pleaded guilty in 2003 to second-degree murder in the 1975 shooting death of Myrna Opsahl, a customer during a bank robbery in Carmichael. After several adjustments, Olson's sentences, to be served consecutively, included 12 years for the attempted bombings and two years for the bank slaying, said Seth Unger, a Department of Corrections spokesman.
