Peter-Jürgen Boock, a repentant German leftist guerrilla convicted in the 1977 abduction-slaying of a banker, is free after 14 years in jail. Sitting with victims of German terrorism, the former Red Army Faction member said on TV last year that his crimes would always haunt him. Authorities said today that Boock was released last week from a Hamburg halfway house where he's been preparing for full release from his 1984 life sentence.
