Patricia Gros Levasseur

Patricia Gros Levasseur was part of the United Freedom Front, a clandestine left-wing organization active in the late 1970s and 1980s that combined political communiqués with criminal actions. The group framed its campaign as opposition to U.S. foreign policy and domestic injustice, and it became associated with a series of bombings of political and corporate targets and bank robberies carried out to fund underground activity.

After years living as a fugitive, Gros Levasseur was arrested on November 4, 1984, in Ohio alongside her partner Raymond Levasseur. She was convicted and served a prison sentence for charges tied to harboring a fugitive and the use of false identification. She was later prosecuted in a broader case involving racketeering and seditious conspiracy allegations against members of the underground network, and those charges resulted in acquittals.

Pat Gros (born Patricia Rowbottom, 1948), partner of Raymond Luc Levasseur, spent a decade underground as part of the United Freedom Front. Arrested with Levasseur and their three daughters near Deerfield, Ohio on November 4, 1984, she received a five-year sentence for harboring a fugitive and possessing fraudulent identification. As one of the "Ohio 7," she stood trial on sedition and racketeering charges and was acquitted of sedition in November 1989.
