NYC’s Weather Underground townhouse still hasn’t found a buyer — 54 years after fatal blast

Kathy Boudin, who spent decades in prison for her part in the deadly 1981 Brink’s armored truck heist as a member of the radical militant group Weather Underground, died of cancer at the age of 78 in New York on Sunday.

In October 1981, Boudin and members of the group teamed up with the Black Liberation Army for the robbery to help fund their anti-government campaigns. They targeted a Brink’s armored truck, which they held up in Rockland County, making off with $1.6 million.

During the robbery, gunmen killed Brink’s security guard Peter Paige before transferring the money to a U-Haul truck a mile away, where a 38-year-old Boudin sat in the cabin.

The truck was stopped by police at a roadblock, where Boudin — unarmed — immediately surrendered. Gunmen in the back of the truck popped outside and began firing on the officers, killing two policemen — Sgt. Edward O’Grady and Officer Waverly Brown.

She pleaded guilty to first-degree robbery and second-degree murder in the death of Paige in 1984.

She spent 22 years in prison before she was paroled for good behavior in 2003.

The many lives of Weather Underground townhouse — 50 years after infamous bomb blast

After jail, she was hired by Columbia School of Social Work as an adjunct professor in 2008. She was hired as a full-time professor in 2013, lecturing about issues facing convicts and their families when a person is released from prison.

Boudin was the mother of San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin, who last year successfully lobbied former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo to commute the sentence of his father, David Gilbert — who was also a member of the Weather Underground who was imprisoned for his role in the stickup.

Gilbert, who served as a getaway driver, was serving a sentence of 75 years to life in prison with no possibility of parole until 2056. Gilbert is among the last surviving people involved in the robbery.

Judith Clark, another former Weather Underground member, served 35 years of a 75-years-to-life sentence for her role in the robbery at a mall in suburban Rockland County before her sentence was commuted by Cuomo in 2016. She was paroled in 2019.

David Gilbert Describes Journey From Activist to Brink’s Robbery Role at Parole Hearing

The former Weather Underground radical described his history as a teenage supporter of the civil rights movement and student activist at Columbia who grew increasingly radicalized

Police allege the attacker ambushes women from behind, wraps his legs around them, and forces himself on them.

Former Weather Underground radical David Gilbert described his path from nonviolent 1960s activist to would-be revolutionary during a 4 1/2-hour hearing before the New York state parole board panel that approved his parole in October, 40 years after he served as a getaway driver in the botched Brink’s robbery that left three men dead and several others wounded.

“The change for me came after Martin Luther King was assassinated,” Gilbert told a three-member panel of commissioners during his Oct. 19 parole hearing at Shawangunk Correctional Facility in the Hudson Valley.

The 171-page transcript of the parole hearing was released to The Associated Press on Thursday in response to a freedom of information request. Names of individuals and some other details were redacted.

’70s Radical David Gilbert Granted Parole in Brink’s Robbery

Cuomo Grants Clemency to Driver in ’81 Brinks Robbery, 5 Others in Last Act as Gov

Gilbert, who is now 77, told the parole commissioners that when riots erupted in cities across the U.S. following King’s 1968 killing and the murders of other civil rights workers, “that’s the point where I abandoned the nonviolent philosophy.”

Gilbert and other former members of the radical Weather Underground joined Black Liberation Army militants in the Oct. 20, 1981, armored car robbery near the Hudson River community of Nyack. Brink’s guard Peter Paige and two Nyack police officers, Sgt. Edward O’Grady and Officer Waverly Brown, were killed in the $1.6 million holdup and ensuing shootout.

Though unarmed, Gilbert was charged with robbery and murder for his role in the crime and sentenced to 75 years to life in prison.

Gilbert became eligible for parole when his sentence was commuted by former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo just before he left office in August. Cuomo, in announcing the commutation, said Gilbert’s convictions “were related to an incident in which he was the driver, not the murderer.”

NY Marks 40 Years Since Deadly Brink's Truck Heist

A Brinks truck heist that left three people dead was 40 years ago today. Lynda Baquero reports on remembrances of that day.

The board granted Gilbert parole on Oct. 26 and he was released from prison on Nov. 4. Commissioners cited Gilbert’s “sincere remorse” and his groundbreaking work developing AIDS education and prevention programs in prison in approving his release.

Gilbert’s attorney, Steve Zeidman, said Thursday that Gilbert is grateful to the parole board and is adjusting to life outside prison. “The board is to be commended for focusing on the present instead of the past,” Zeidman said.

Gilbert’s release was championed by supporters including his son, San Francisco District Attorney Chesa Boudin, but was opposed by law enforcement groups and members of the Brink’s victims’ families.

“Former Governor Andrew Cuomo and the Parole Board should be ashamed for allowing this domestic terrorist to walk free on our streets,” Rockland County Executive Ed Day said when Gilbert was granted parole in October. “There’s no reason that David Gilbert should not have to face the full consequences of his heinous crimes, no matter how much time has passed.”

Gilbert expressed sorrow for the victims repeatedly during his parole hearing.

Outrage After Cuomo Grants Clemency to Infamous Brinks Heist Driver

The getaway driver behind the wheel of a stolen Brinks truck was granted clemency by former Gov. Andrew Cuomo in one of his last acts as the state’s top executive. Lynda Baquero reports on the reaction from the families and communities affected by the crime.

“I mean, nothing repairs the horror and damage of the crime, nothing,” Gilbert said. He said nothing makes up for what “the families went through, wives carrying on without husbands and children without fathers and, as you pointed out, a number of other people wounded, a whole community’s sense of safety and security are shattered, so justice in that sense, there’s no way to repair that or make up for that.”

During the hearing, which one of the commissioners said lasted four and a half hours, Gilbert went over his history as a teenage supporter of the civil rights movement and a student activist at Columbia University who grew increasingly radicalized and joined the Weather Underground, a militant split-off from the activist group Students for a Democratic Society.

At the time of the Brink’s robbery, Gilbert had been underground for several years living under assumed names to escape the law as his fellow radicals planned bombings of government facilities. Gilbert said his role was mainly as an educator, leading classes and discussion groups while others were building bombs.

Gilbert’s partner at the time, Kathy Boudin, was also convicted in the Brink’s robbery and was released from prison in 2003. Chesa Boudin was a toddler when his parents were arrested.

“We actually dropped our son off — you know, the most adorable creature in the world — dropped him off at a babysitter and said we’ll be back in a few hours,” Gilbert told the parole board.

Chesa Boudin was elected San Francisco district attorney in 2019 as part of a national wave of progressive prosecutors determined to reform the criminal justice system. He faces a recall election in June spurred by critics who say he has failed to prosecute repeat offenders and allowed them to commit more crimes.
