Kathy Boudin, a Weather Underground militant who participated in a deadly 1981 robbery, is dead at 78.
Militants first stopped the Brink's armored truck, killing security guard Peter Paige. They then left with roughly $1.6 million in cash and transferred to a nearby U-Haul vehicle, where Boudin was waiting.
She soon ran into a police roadblock, however.

Boudin last made waves when Columbia University announced it had enlisted her as an adjunct professor at the university's school of social work in 2008. It then hired her as a full time professor in 2013,
