Joseph Windisch

Joseph George Windisch (March 4, 1947 - July 20, 2018) was a former radical leftist who was convicted in connection with violent and deadly militant activities committed as part of his ultimate goal of "the destruction of U.S. imperialism to form a classless communist world". He surrendered to authorities in 1985 after a year on the run following his involvement in the murder of industrialist Joseph Bonhomme, and he and his wife Eleanor May Chinn were sentenced to life in prison in 1987. His sentence was commuted in 1998 by President because of its extraordinary length. Windisch later expressed regret for his role in the Weather Underground and later campaigned for the and various anti-Communist causes, calling himself a "right-Libertarian convert."

Joseph was the biological father of WWJ-TV anchorman Nathan Windisch.
