BONNIE AND CLYDE: Kidnap Dillard Darby and Sophia Stone

On April 27, 1934, two weeks after the Joplin shootout, the Barrow gang, consisting of Clyde and Buck Barrow, Buck’s wife Blanche, Bonnie Parker and W.D. Jones found themselves in Ruston, Louisiana, where they planned to rob the Ruston State Bank. For the job they needed a second car. Seeing an unattended car in front of the Brooks boarding house (with the keys in the ignition I might add), the gang let W.D. out to take it. They didn’t anticipate the car’s owner and his female neighbor giving chase. In anger Clyde took them along for a joyride into Arkansas. In the 1967 film, Bonnie and Clyde showed the couple, played by Gene Wilder and Evans Evans having a fabulous time. Watch this to find out what really happened to Dillard Darby and Sophia Stone in 1933. Oh, and yes, Dillard Darby was an undertaker who would indeed help embalm Bonnie and Clyde a year later just as Bonnie requested of him during their road-trip
