Clyde: Bonnie And

Bonnie Elizabeth Parker and Clyde Chestnut Barrow were notorious American outlaws who led a violent crime spree across the Central United States during the Great Depression. Between 1932 and 1934, their "Barrow Gang" was responsible for at least 13 murders—including nine law enforcement officers—and numerous robberies and kidnappings. Despite their later romanticization as glamorous anti-heroes, historical accounts from sources like the FBI describe them as small-time criminals whose reality was one of constant fear, injury, and meager loot.
