00:00:07.060 --> 00:00:09.820
- [Narrator] In the hay day
of depression era outlaws,

00:00:09.820 --> 00:00:13.300
the most notorious was
Indiana's John Dillinger.

00:00:13.300 --> 00:00:17.090
His gang robbed banks, the
arsenals of police stations

00:00:17.090 --> 00:00:18.870
and killed 10 men.

00:00:18.870 --> 00:00:21.270
Dillinger escaped from jail twice,

00:00:21.270 --> 00:00:23.807
once with a wooden gun
he claimed he widdled

00:00:23.807 --> 00:00:26.610
but he was charged with homicide just once

00:00:26.610 --> 00:00:28.740
returning fire after policemen shot

00:00:28.740 --> 00:00:31.200
into Dillinger's bullet proof vest.

00:00:31.200 --> 00:00:34.260
He shook police in four
states for nearly a year,

00:00:34.260 --> 00:00:37.400
capturing the attention of
depression worn America.

00:00:37.400 --> 00:00:40.030
Wounded, he recovered at
his father's farmhouse

00:00:40.030 --> 00:00:44.030
in Mooresville, returning
to Chicago and his doom.

00:00:44.030 --> 00:00:47.020
Fleeing from federal
agents as he left a movie,

00:00:47.020 --> 00:00:50.520
he was shot and killed
but his infamous legend

00:00:50.520 --> 00:00:51.980
continued to grow.

00:00:51.980 --> 00:00:53.090
I'm Jane Pauley.
