Bonnie and Clyde

Bonnie and Clyde "met in January 1930 and were first linked in crime in a December 1932 automobile theft. For two years Bonnie and Clyde worked their way across the southwestern United States, holding up gas stations, restaurants and banks. They killed 12 people, mostly law enforcement officials. Because of his ruthlessness, Clyde earned the title 'public enemy number one of the Southwest'."


Crime Library's Story of Bonnie and Clyde

Wikipedia on Bonnie and Clyde ".. Bonnie Parker (October 1, 1910 – May 23, 1934) and Clyde Barrow (March 24, 1909 – May 23, 1934) were notorious outlaws, robbers and criminals who travelled the Central United States during the Great Depression. Their exploits were known nationwide. They captured the attention of the American press and its readership during what is sometimes referred to as the "public enemy era" between 1931 and 1935. Although this couple and their gang were notorious for their bank robberies, Clyde Barrow preferred to rob small stores or gas stations...."

Texas Hideout hoto Gallery: Bonnie and Clyde's Bullet-riddled car, graves, hideout, etc.

Bonnie and Clyde Haunts "... Clyde Barrow and Bonnie Parker were both natives of Dallas. Though Clyde, the son of sharecroppers, was born in Telico (Ellis County) and Bonnie's family moved to Dallas from Rowena (Runnels County) after the death of her father, they both considered the Eagle Ford area - West Dallas - home. After running from the law for a little over two years, while criss-crossing the Mid-West, they died together in a violent ambush near Lebanon, Louisiana (close to Arcadia, in Bienville Parish). Traces of their past can still be seen in the Dallas area and thereabouts..."

John Dillinger "Public Enemy Number One"

"Never trust a woman or a automatic weapon." John Dillinger (whose demise was the result of both)

The Crime Library: John Dillinger  ".... Banks were having miserable public relations problems in the Depression. Many of them failed, sweeping away the life savings of millions of hard working people.  Those that stayed in business foreclosed on people's homes, farms and businesses as the economy went from bad to worse.

"So bank robbers were not particularly viewed as terrible criminals by the average American.  There was even a touch of Robin Hood when bank robbers destroyed all of the mortgage records at the banks they hit.  The daring daytime robberies and skillful getaways were glamorous and exciting, especially if the robbers were handsome, polite and photogenic.

"And so, John Dillinger and Harry Pierpont, Baby Face Nelson and the rest of the Dillinger Gang were celebrities whose exploits were followed closely by a Depression-weary American public that followed their every adventure like a running television series.... "

The Official John Dillinger Family Website

John Dillinger: The Hidden Truth  Unanswered questions surrounding Dillinger's Life and Death. "... is an updated factual account about criminals of the nineteen twenties and thirties, and the heroic lawmen who tracked them down. John Dillinger became a "bigger than life" celebrity after his death in July of 1934. His reputation would triumph and soar upward to become a giant in his trade; fourteen months later his career would skid to a tradic end. Dillinger participated in three gangs, escaped from two jails, raided three police departments, escaped several police and FBI traps, and helped mastermind the biggest jailbreak in history from the Indiana State Penitentiary at Michigan City. It was a time of crime of corruption on both sides of the law. The line between the good guys and the bad guys was narrow if not indistinguishable...."

The John Dillinger Historical Crime Museum "... a combination of pictures, memorabilia and facts on the life and times of John Herbert Dillinger, public enemy number one..."

The John Dillinger Scrapbook "... There are over thirty pages in the Scrapbook full of information and links on the life of John Dillinger, his associates, and the lawmen that hunted them down...."

J.D. "Bulletproof" page. '.."Never trust a woman or a automatic weapon."
Famous Dillinger quote. It's just too bad that John Dillinger didn't take his own advice when he walked out of the Biograph Theater on that fateful night of July 22,1934. Step back into time and learn the real facts, not the FBI fairy tales that we were mislead to believe for many years...." This site is sort of a strange homage to John Dillinger, and full of fascinating information.

The John Dillinger File This is an extensive site, full of all sorts of documents and information on this infamous gangster.

John Dillinger Died for You Society

The John Dillinger Scrapbook  Includes many, many photos including one of John Dillinger at the morgue; John Dillinger Wanted Poster.

John Dillinger Museum contains "....the bloody wax display of him on the morgue table (a sign warns "Please control your children."), the casket used to transport his body to the grave site, his first tombstone, and more, more, more...."

Dillinger: Dead or Alive? "..Did John Dillinger really die outside the Biograph movie theater in Chicago in 1934? And does his allegedly prodigious pecker really reside pickled in a secluded corner of the Smithsonian or some other hallowed ground?..." See also "Dear Departed Member"

Dillinger: Dead or Alive--The Perfect Rebuttal ".. Since Dillinger’s demise at the hands of the G-men there have been those who believe that he somehow escaped his fate yet again. It began with reports of how different the man killed looked. Even when his sister, Audrey Hancock, identified the body as John, the rumors continued. In modern times this story continues to have its proponents...."

Dillinger on PBS "... From 1933 to 1934, America was thrilled and terrorized by John Dillinger, a desperado, a bank robber, a bad man no jail could hold. His reputation grew until he was named the country's first Public Enemy #1 and hunted by virtually every cop in America. Operating during a time of great hardship, Dillinger became a mythic figure who struggled against authority and garnered the support of many ordinary Americans, particularly those hardest hit by the Great Depression. Dillinger finally met his match in J. Edgar Hoover, who used the outlaw's celebrity to burnish his own reputation and that of his national law enforcement agency, the FBI. Hoover won the day making sure in the process that the moral of Dillinger's tale was "crime doesn't pay."..."

The Forgotten Harry Pierpont "... Harry Pierpont was one of the major members of the John Dillinger Gang. If history had it's chance to play itself out, he could have been a Public Enemy himself and may have surpassed Dillinger in legend...."

Dillinger's Mason City Robbery "... John Dillinger was a household name by the time he and his gang robbed the First National Bank in Mason City of $52,000 on March 13. 1934. He had been one a year long bank-robbing spree across the Midwest and was approaching the end of his run, weeks away from getting ambushed by FBI agents outside of a movie theater in Chicago on July 22, 1934...."

A Tribute to John Dillinger

Indiana State Archives on Dillinger "...John Dillinger's life and crimes made him Indiana's most notorious criminal. Interest in him and, consequently, in records of him at the Indiana State Archives is high. This text describes what is available on Dillinger and his gang in the Archives' collections...."

The Jewish Mob

The Jewish Mob According to Wikipedia "... Largely originating from the immigration from Eastern Europe during the late-19th and early 20th centuries, Jewish-American organized crime (sometimes referred to as the Kosher Nostra — a pun on the Italian term Cosa Nostra — Kosher Mafia, the Jewish Mob or the Jewish Mafia) emerged during the later years of the "Gangs of New York" era as Jewish gangs under gang lord Monk Eastman, whose ranks included Max "Kid Twist" Zwerbach, "Big" Jack Zelig and Vach "Cyclone Louie" Lewis, competed with Italian gang leader Paul Kelly's Five Points Gang for control of New York's underworld as the domination of Irish street gangs began to decline...."

Bugs Moran's Lake Como Retreat "... Back in the 1920s, dapper Chicago gangsters, including "Scarface" Capone, George "Bugs" Moran, Jack "Machine Gun" McGurn and John Dillinger, drove north for their rest and relaxation, away from the pressures of Prohibition. One of the hideaway retreats was the Lake Como Hotel, now The French Country Inn. Locals tell stories about an underground speakeasy called the Sewer, and the secret tunnels that connected to the building for fast getaways. That hideaway feeling is still evident. Practically invisible from the street, the only way in is via a narrow wooded road...."

Infamous Gangsters Death Certificates

Little Bohemia "...In 1931, Emil Wanatka purchased land and built the Little Bohemia Lodge, located off Highway 51, in Manitowish Waters, Wisconsin. When Wanatka needed advice on legal matters he would contact attorney Louis Piquett, who happened to also be John Dillinger's legal counsel. There was a connection between Piquett, Wanatka and Dillinger. Could it just be a coincidence that Louis Piquett represented both Emil Wanatka and John Dillinger? Is it also just a coincidence that Dillinger happened to choose the Little Bohemia Lodge for a vacation spot? No. ..."

The "Chicago Mob"... A legacy of brutality... deception... intrigue... and where they all eventually wound up: 6 feet under.

"The income tax law is a lot of bunk.  The government can't collect legal taxes from illegal money."  -- Attributed to Al Capone
Al Capone, 1930 
(National Archives, Still Picture Branch, 306-NT-163. 820C)

Al Capone  "On April 23, 1930, the Chicago Crime Commission issued its first Public Enemies List; there were 28 names on it, and Al Capone's was the first. Capone headed an enormous crime organization that netted huge profits from the illegal liquor trade and he became a legendary symbol of the violent gangsterism of the Prohibition era." Dubbed "Scarface" by the press (he hated the nickname!) 

My Capone Museum
by Mario Gomez, Capone-aholic.

"..."I thought I knew quite a bit about Chicago’s Prohibition Era mobsters -- until I encountered Mario Gomes. His knowledge of the period must exceed that of any person living, and his memory for details is rivaled only by his research capabilities. He should have been the keeper of Al Capone’s personal memoirs, except that we’d probably have lost him to Frank Nitti’s purge of old Outfit loyalists, or to some vengeful remnant of the North Side gang." -- William J. Helmer,

"No man alive knows Al Capone better than Mario Gomes. His aid to me has been incalculable and his Al Capone Museum website is the product of years of dedicated research and a tremendous ongoing crusade for both detail and accuracy. One could read every Capone biography to date and still not attain Mario's massive expertise on Capone and Twenties Chicago. This site blazes like a Tommygun." -- Rick Mattix
