Bonnie and Clyde
Bonnie and Clyde, lovers and criminals who traveled the Central United
States during the Great Depression were not considered as romantic back
then as they are today. Their gang was responsible for at least nine
police officer and several civilian deaths. It is unsure how the couple
met but it is thought that it was love at a first sight. When Bonnie and
Clyde met (probably in 1930), the latter already had a criminal record
but that obviously did not bother Bonnie. She decided to join him in his
criminal undertakings and stayed with him until the very end. They were
ambushed by the police in Bienville Parish, Louisiana in 1934 and
killed. The couple wanted to be buried together but Bonnie’s family did
not allow it.
