Judith Clark, the getaway driver in a deadly Brinks truck robbery has been paroled.

New York State Parole Board: “After 38 years in prison and six months shy of her 70th birthday, Judith Clark was granted parole today by the State Parole Board.”

NY TIMES ARTICLE

“Today’s ruling by the parole board is a cruel and unjust slap in the face to the families of Sergeant Edward O’Grady, Officer Waverly “Chipper” Brown and Brinks guard Peter Paige. This perversion of justice is a sad continuation of the deadly assault on police officers happening across our Nation and signals to the criminal element that it is open season on cops. The parole board and the elected officials responsible for allowing this domestic terrorist to walk free should be ashamed.” – County Executive Ed Day

“I am not sure that we can adequately put into words the utter disgust and disappointment our members feel after today’s decision to grant Judith Clark parole. It is an understatement to say that this is an absolute travesty of justice. This decision is a total slap in the face to all Americans. It completely disregards the reckless and willful acts of a convicted domestic terrorist and should outrage every good citizen in our County, State and Nation. Please make no mistake about it, Judith Clark is a domestic terrorist. She was a member of the Weather Underground and played a key role in the murders of Police Officer Waverly “Chip'” Brown, Sergeant Edward O’Grady and Brinks Guard Peter Paige. This group’s anti-American sentiment was the driving force behind their terroristic activities. How ironic is it that the same America Judith Clark despised, has now afforded her freedom. I know that I speak for all the victims’ families, the residents of Rockland County, and Law Enforcement officers from here and all across this country in saying that I am disgusted by this decision.” – Larry Ayers, President – Rockland County PBA

Frozen Toilet During Extreme Cold? What Homeowners Should and Shouldn’t Do

With freezing temperatures expected across Rockland County, Fire and Emergency Services is reminding residents to take steps to prevent frozen and burst pipes, which can cause significant property damage and even lead to fires.

Officials recommend allowing faucets to drip slightly, especially overnight, to keep water moving through pipes. Residents should also open cabinet doors to allow warm air to circulate around plumbing, particularly in kitchens and bathrooms.

Fire and Emergency Services advises keeping homes heated to at least 55 degrees, even when away, and insulating exposed pipes in basements, crawl spaces, and garages. Residents are warned never to use open flames or unsafe heating devices to thaw frozen pipes.

If a pipe does freeze, officials recommend using a hair dryer or warm air to thaw it safely. Torches or other open-flame methods should never be used. A frozen toilet is inconvenient, but rushing the fix can turn a minor problem into major damage. Slow, careful warming is the safest solution, and professional help should be sought if the issue persists.

In the event of a burst pipe or water emergency, residents are urged to shut off the water immediately and contact emergency services or a licensed professional if needed.

Officials remind residents to stay warm, stay safe, and take preventative steps to protect their homes during extreme cold weather.
