Bonnie & Clyde, do you know the story of this American legend?

In a 2-year period in 1923-1924, at the peak of depression Great in America, two already famous celebrities, Bonnie and Clyde were turned by petty thieves, bank robbers and murderers. The theft they made to banks and shop owners, in one In rural America, where bankruptcy was plagued, led to their exploitation as well as their relationship, which was romanticised by a postx0> yellow” that flourished at the time. In reality, the moment they died, their gang was already responsible for at least 13 murders, including 2 police officers, dozens of robberies and kidnappings, as well as many injuries.

BONNIA Thin and only 1 and 50 long, Bonnie Parker was the second of three children in a poor Texas family. In January 1930, when he met Clyde Barroa and engaged her, Bonnie was 19 years old and worked as a waitress to support herself. Her husband in the last three years, Roy Thornton, was in prison for murder. They never divorced. Although in most times nearby Clyde and his gang, at the time of his death, had no warrants against her or murder charges. In fact, very little if no evidence exists that she shot and killed someone, but already in 1934, her fate was inextricably linked to that of her loved one, Clyde Baroe.

CLYDE
When Clyde met Bonnie in January 1930, he was 21-year-old and alone. The fifth of seven children, the lin-dung in a poor farmer family in Texas, the one with his brother Buck kept himself from committing petty theft. Shortly after meeting Bonnie, at the home of a mutual friend of theirs, Clyde went to prison for robbery. He had left a huge impression on Bonnie, until she managed to smuggle into prison a gun and help her escape. When he was arrested, Clyde was sentenced to two years in prison. In February 1932, he was released on parole and was then reunited with Bonnie.

By these moments, Clyde was mainly involved in minor crimes, more of an opportunistic character. State Prison, however Texas was evidently very different. It was at the time of his stay in prison that he reportedly killed another prisoner who had beaten and raped him. By the time Clyde was released in 1932, he had already become a very harsh man.

CRIMES
It wasn't long before Clyde got back into criminal activity, this time recruiting a lot of people, including Ralph Fults, to create what later became known as the Barroa gang. After Clyde and Fults had attacked and robbed a metal equipment store, they later joined Bonnie, but at this moment they were spotted and thus launched a high-speed police chase. Despite Skills Clyde in the direction of the vehicle, they were forced to steal mules to go through the farms of a living village and both Bonnie and Fults were arrested. Clyde managed to escape. Bonnie claimed she had been kidnapped by the gang but, despite the jury failing to condemn her, she stayed for two months in the Kaufman Prison in Texas. Right after the release, she joined Clyde again.

The Barroa gang consisted of Raymond Hamilton, Henry Methvin, Joe Palmer, LED Jones and Clyde's brother, Ivan M. Buck Barrow. During a short period of time, the gang committed much robbery and kidnapping, some of which had the authorship of Bonnie and Clyde.
Their actions “heroeic” caused a wave of tales and mythology based on very little evidence, and more on gossip and words. In some respects, the gang was admired and they were regarded as the Robin Hood of modern times, while others reviled them and considered them mere criminals of state laws.

However, it was the first time Clyde had been fighting for murder that brought them even greater fame. The Federal Bureau of Investigation, then called the Bureau of Investigation, began to show a slight interest in Barroa as well as his female companion in December 1932. What would later turn into the greatest chase by bandits at the time began with very little awareness of how elusive and persistent these young ones would become. By the time Bonnie was still in prison in Texas, Clyde was identified as the driver driving after a bank robbery. Later, when Clyde and Hamilton were drinking in violation of the law at a party in Oklahoma, a local sheriff and a companion approached them. Both the cops were shot and killed when Clyde and Hamilton tried to escape.

If the public had any sympathy for the Barroa gang, she was quickly hanged after killing the two sheriffs. On March 22, 1932, Clyde was hiding in a lonely residence in Joplin, Missouri, along with his brother Buck and his sister-in-law, Blanche. NED Jones and Bonnie were also present. But this time tensions were very high, as some members of the gang insisted that Clyde should turn himself in.

There is no doubt that Bonnie would take Clyde's side to get on the road. Although there is little evidence to support the <x0mitological perspective” that they were in love, there is no doubt that the couple were inseparable. The gang began to be constantly disturbed by law enforcement and very soon, a shootout occurred, where it was seriously injured D Jones, but not before Clyde shot and killed one cop and fatally injured another.

Band including Blanche ) then left the apartment, leaving behind many of their items, including a camera. The film that was later released revealed many photographs that later turned into famous images Bonnie and Clyde, who represented their weapons, and who were later reproduced into millions of books over the decades.
Indeed, life on the run for the gang was far from fascinating.

They argued constantly and rarely had the time or opportunity to spend what they earned from criminal activity. During an incident, Bonnie was hurt when Clyde slipped into a creek and caught her under the car. Bonnie suffered severe burning in her leg and right this time, Clyde thought they should take a break to enable the healing of Bonnie.

This withdrawal from chaos was short term when Buck killed a police officer in the city during a robbery that went wrong. Once again, the gang had to move on. It seemed that they were unable to leave any trace of destruction behind, wherever they went, a trace that always fell into the hands of lawkeepers, mainly because of the gang's suspicious behavior.

On July 18, 1933, the gang rented two cabins in Plate City, Missouri. During the night, an armoured car parked very near the cabins. Authorities were notified when one of the gang members went to a pharmacy Platte City to buy medicine. The exchange of fire between police and the Barroa gang was intense. As a result, Clyde's brother Buck took a bullet to the head. Strangely, despite human power of the police force, the gang was once again able to escape.

AVERSATION
The escape of the gang and the departure of the authorities did not last long. Blanche was already suffering from an earlier battle when she was hit in the eye by some glass fragments and was almost blind. Then, on July 24th, the Barroa gang was ambushed. Buck was shot several times and both he and Blanche were caught.

Buck, already badly injured, died in the hospital five days later. In the coming months, there was unprecedented bloodshed as the gang was ambushed, and then they escaped when a prison guard was killed, when they attacked Eastham Prison to free members of the gang, Raymond Hamilton and Joe Palmer. During this encounter, it was Palmer who shot and killed an innocent victim. It was this sort of cold - blooded murder, especially of civil servants who hardened the stand of the authorities as well as their position to bring to justice the gang, alive or dead.

On April 1, 1934, Clyde Barrow's reputation for his indecibility was permanently cemented when he and the other gang member Henry Methwin pointed their guns at two highway guards in Grepevine, Texas. The latest incident confirmed once again a consensus among agents FBI and Authorities Louisiana to deal with Bonnie and Clyde already in a way that would permanently eliminate the danger they posed to the public.

FU JOY DIVING
It was a quiet day, he saw many events on May 23, 1934, when Bonnie and Clyde were driving down a secondary road near where they were hiding, in Bienville Parish, Louisiana.

Unbeknownst to them, a group of volunteers, of four police officers from Texas, as well as two officers ran from Louisiana led by Ranger captain Frank Hammer, waiting. Hammer had been after the gang since February of that year, when he received a directive from the Minister's Department of Punishment to eliminate Bonnie and Clyde.

Hammer, along with other agents, had visited the parents' home of the gang member, Henry Methvin in Shreveport, Louisiana, to get information about gang movements. Methvin's house was designed as a safe place, as well as meeting point from Clyde, if the gang were to break up in any of the gunfights.

On May 23, Hammer and his volunteers were patiently waiting in the bushes until Bonnie and Clyde returned to the top. Highway 154 between Gibbsland and Sailes. They stayed there one day and were very close to abandoning the plan when they were finally rewarded as Ford V-8, stolen from Clyde, approached.

At first, Clyde stopped to talk to Methvin's father, Henry standing next to a truck that was put there earlier by Hammer to distract Clyde as well as to draw him into the range of Rangers' weapons. Within seconds, all of them opened fire releasing approximately 130 bullets to Bonnie and Clyde.

Clyde died immediately, after a single blow to the head that came from the gun of one of the Rangers, Prentis Oakley. But Bonnie was heard screaming out of pain as bullets went through her body, sifting her and the car. Afterward, the Rangers recharged their guns, changing rifles, shos, and then pistols as the car stopped falling into a ditch. Even though it stopped, the guns kept firing.
With modern standards, such an incident would have caused an investigation, especially when a rebel police officer like Hammer took over the law.

Despite having had no arrest warrants against Bonnie to justify her murder, Hammer and the Lousiana authorities had decided the execution was the preferred option. Whatever the view of such an act from a moral perspective, what surely is behavior to question Hammer and some of his volunteers, is that they kept many of the stolen weapons they found in Bonnie and Clyde's car as souvenirs, and later sold them.

In the city of Gibbsland, Louisiana annually is held “Bonnie Festival and Clyde” in 154th Highway, just on their death anniversary. It is sad, but the innocent victims of the Vandra Barroa, who were in total of thirty-four, are not remembered with similar worship.

Along with disgusting memorable, a romanticized film that even Oscar has won and a poem written by itself Bonnie has been published for the world to read, the mythology of two cold-blooded and illiterate criminals continues unspoiled.
