Former radical activist Judith Clark was granted parole Wednesday after serving more than 37 years behind bars for her role as a getaway driver in the 1981 Brink's armored truck robbery that left two police officers and a security guard dead.

“We are grateful that the Parole Board affirmed what everyone who has interacted with Judy already knows—that she is a rehabilitated, remorseful woman who poses no threat to society,” said Michael Cardozo, who represents Clark pro bono as co-counsel with Steve Zeidman. “My great hope is that the Parole Board continues to honor the work people do to transform their lives while in prison and lets more families' loved ones come home,” said Clark's daughter, Harriet Clark, in a statement.

Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo praised Clark's behavior as a model prisoner when he commuted her 75-years-to-life sentence in 2016 to make her eligible for parole. The 69-year-old inmate has earned a master's degree, trained service dogs, founded an AIDS education program and counseled mothers behind bars during her time in prison.
