Kuwasi Balagoon
Kuwasi Balagoon was a defendant in the Panther 21 case in the
late sixties, and a member of the Black Liberation Army. Captured and
convicted of various crimes against the State, he spent much of the
1970s in prison, escaping twice. After each escape, he went underground
and resumed BLA activity. He was captured in December 1981, charged
with participating in an armored truck expropriation in West Nyack,
New York, on October 21 of that year, an action in which two police
officers and a money courier were killed. Convicted and sentenced to
life imprisonment, he died of pneumocystis carninii pneumonia, an
AIDS-related illness, on December 13, 1986.
