Julienne Bušić (maiden name: Julienne Eden Schultz, born 1948) is an American writer, activist, and the wife of Zvonko Bušić. She was arrested in 1976 after hijacking TWA Flight 355 and sentenced to life in prison, with early parole.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=United States of America, Plaintiff-appellee, v. Zvonko Busic, Julienne Busic, Petar Matanic, Frane Pesut,defendants-appellants - 592 F.2d 13 )〕 ==Biography== According to her memoir, she was born in Eugene, Oregon, USA and was raised in Portland, Oregon. She graduated from the University of Oregon, attended Vienna University (Austria), and obtained a master's degree in German language, literature, and linguistics at Portland State University.〔 In Oregon, she worked as a nurse's aid, teacher, and mental health therapist for abused teenagers. She married Zvonko Bušić in 1972 and they lived together in Austria, Germany, Oregon, and Ohio before moving to New York City. They were active in publicizing human rights abuses in the former Yugoslavia, especially the murder of Croatian dissidents by the Yugoslav secret police organization UDBA in the so-called "black program," and in promoting the cause of Croatian independence.〔〔 Julienne Bušić and a friend were imprisoned briefly in Zagreb in the early 1970s for disseminating literature critical of the Yugoslavian government.〔 On September 10, 1976, she, her husband, and three others hijacked domestic Trans World Airlines flight 355 departing from New York for Chicago, using the threat of a bomb, which later turned out to be a harmless pressure cooker. They flew the airliner over London, where they dropped pamphlets promoting Croatian independence from Yugoslavia. The group surrendered without bloodshed; however, Brian Murray, a member of the NYPD bomb squad, was killed and three others squad members injured while attempting to defuse an explosive left behind in a storage locker at Grand Central Terminal. Zvonko and Julienne Bušić were convicted of air piracy resulting in death, which carried a mandatory life sentence with parole eligibility after 10 years.〔 In 1979, she was attacked in prison by Manson Family member Lynette Fromme. She was released from federal prison in 1989 after serving 13 years in the minimum security Federal Correctional Institution in Dublin, California.〔〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Green Light Interview with Julienne Bušić )〕 During and after her stint in prison, Julienne corresponded at length with Kathleen Murray Moran, the wife of the bomb squad member killed during the incident. Kathleen advocated for Julie's early release.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=New York Times article about Kathleen Murray Moran and Julienne Busic ) Kathleen later stated in an interview that Julienne played her. In their last meeting after Julienne came out of prison, Julienne was asking Kathleen to write to the parole board for the release of her husband.〕 Julienne subsequently moved to Croatia and has supported Croatian humanitarian causes in the U.S. and Europe. She has been involved in publishing, translation, and literary projects, and written for literary journals both in Croatia and the United States, including Ooligan Press,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ooligan Press website )〕 Verbatim,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Verbatim magazine website )〕 Gobshite Quarterly,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Gobshite Quarterly website )〕 and Vijenac.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Vijenac website )〕 She is also a weekly columnist for the Croatian news portal Dalje.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Dalje )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Julienne Bušić」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
