The mastermind behind the 1981 Brinks armored-car robbery, in which two Nyack police officers and a security guard were killed, has been released from federal prison after serving half his 60-year sentence.
Mutulu Shakur, once the leader of the radical Black Liberation Army and a Harlem-based acupuncturist, was released Wednesday from the high-security penitentiary in Victorville, California, according to the federal Bureau of Prisons' website.
