Bonnie Parker (and a little bit on Clyde Barrow - Minisode)

Bonnie and Clyde are sometimes viewed as a romantic story - the couple who lived life on the road, outside the norms and laws of society and without any regrets. In reality, their lives were not like this at all - neither glamorous nor romantic. It was a life of campsites and small cabins, living in their car and constantly looking over their shoulders for the police who were, eventually, only one step behind them. Bonnie Parker got swept into this life of crime, and although she (probably) didn’t kill anyone herself she was definitely an accomplice to both murder and bank robbery. She was well aware that, in choosing to stand with Clyde, she was dooming herself to a short life - but she didn’t care.Sources/Further Reading[Letter to Alice Sheppard describing the post-mortem condition of Bonnie Parker's body.] https://digitalcollections.smu.edu/digital/collection/gcd/id/155/Historynet.com: Bonnie and Clydes Revenge on Eastham https://www.historynet.com/bonnie-clydes-revenge-on-eastham/Milner, E.R: The LIves and times of Bonnie and ClydeTreherne, J.E: The Strange History of Bonnie and ClydeBarrow, Blanche Caldwell: My Life with Bonnie and ClydeGilmore, John: On the run with Bonnie and ClydeWikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonnie_and_Clyde Hosted on Acast.
