The Truth About Bonnie and Clyde that Historians Kept Quiet

Clyde's Burial

Barrow's funeral was held in private on May 25. He was placed to rest in the Western heights Cemetary in Dallas, TX. He joined his brother Marvin (Buck), and the brothers shared a tombstone.

Today, the bullet-destroyed Ford and the suit Barrow wore are on display in the Whiskey Pete Casino in Primm, Nevada. Though many of the officers were promised large sums of money, one, in particular, was offered $26,000 ($498,630 today). However, none of these debts were fulfilled. Barrow and Parker's insurances were paid in full to their families, which changed the law for future criminal insurance policies.
