The Lie We Loved: Bonnie & Clyde and the Price of America’s Outlaw Romance | Deadly Truths: Morally Bankrupt

They were young, reckless, and deadly — and America couldn’t look away.

In this episode of Deadly Truths: Morally Bankrupt, Becca unravels the myth of Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow, the outlaw lovers who turned bloodshed into legend. From dusty backroads and stolen Fords to the FBI ambush that ended their story, this is the truth behind the glamour — the grief, the bodies, and the lies we told ourselves to make it all sound romantic.

Discover how newspapers turned criminals into celebrities, how Hollywood kept the fantasy alive, and why our obsession with outlaw love stories still won’t die.
