Judith Clark, participant in 1981 Brinks armored car robbery.
When state Supreme Court Justice John Kelley looked at why the getaway driver in the deadly 1981 Brinks robbery was denied parole, he decided that the state Parole Board paid too much attention to the seriousness of the crime and not enough to whether Judith Clark’s release posed a danger to society.
He granted her Article 78 petition and called the board’s denial of her parole in the robbery, which resulted in the deaths of two Nyack police officers and a Brinks security guard, arbitrary and capricious.
