Joanne Chesimard, who goes by the name Assata Shakur, on the FBI’s most-wanted list for years. The reason? She is a convicted cop-killer who escaped from prison and fled to Cuba to avoid serving her life sentence in prison.
“On May 2, 1973, Chesimard, who was part of a revolutionary extremist organization known as the Black Liberation Army, and two accomplices were stopped for a motor vehicle violation on the New Jersey Turnpike by two troopers with the New Jersey State Police,” the FBI states. “At the time, Chesimard was wanted for her involvement in several felonies, including bank robbery.
