Following her Judgement of Conviction and sentencing, Chesimard was
ultimately incarcerated at the clinton Correctional Institution for
Women.
Chesimard remained incarcerated until November 2, 1979. On that
date, Chesimard effected a successful armed escape from the Clinton
Correctional Institution for Women with the help of three other
individuals affiliated with the Black Liberation Army and several other
left wing domestic terrorist organizations.
She has remained a fugitive
ever since.
Had Chesimard not escaped, she would have remained
incarcerated in prison at least until the year 2ooo, the earliest date
upon which she would have been eligible for consideration for parole.

Chesimard and her confederates violently ended the life of a husband,.
father, and dedicated law enforcement officer.
In addition, since her arrival in Cuba in 1984, Chesimard has
received the support of the Cuban government and has given many anti-uS
speeches. In a videotaped interview with the media in 1998, Chesimard
reiterates her anti-government rhetoric and continues to deny her
culpability in Foerster's murder. The us government still views
Chesimard as a terrorist, a murderer, and an individual who, while she
remains at large, is spreading the violent, anti-government message of
terrorism.
In January, 2004, the FBI requested the Us Department of Justice
(DoJ) approve increasing the reward for information leading to.
Chesimard's arrest to one million us dollars, which was approved in May,
2005.
