New York activist paroled in Peru

http://a.abcnews.com/images/US/ap_berenson_091208_mn.jpgActivist Lori Berenson walked out of prison smiling Thursday but got a chilly reception from her new neighbors after serving three-quarters of a 20-year sentence for aiding leftist rebels.

Now 40, the New Yorker has spent more than a third of her life behind bars – getting married, giving birth, undergoing back surgery – but never denouncing the Tupac Amaru Revolutionary Movement she was convicted of abetting.
