Burmah White Why did she go along with it?



No one asked why Tom White perpetrated the crimes, or asked his sister any questions about his past. But for months after the shootings and Burmah’s arrest, newspapers and radio stations tried to make sense of a young woman from a “good home” who would go along with such a villain. 

The Blonde Rattlesnake Burmah White a teenage hairdresser married alleged gangster, Tom White. On their honeymoon they committed armed robbery against 20 people and that wasn't the beginning or ending of their crime spree together.

 In the Summer of 1933, L.A. Had Its Own Bonnie Parker: The Blonde Rattlesnake However, she had suffered a traumatic head injury as a teenager, which may or may not account for her behavior during her courtship with Tom.

“I didn’t even know he was a bandit until he was killed” Burmah claimed she was a victim. “He made me do it — threatened me.” She said she didn’t knew he was an ex-convict.

 Couples Who Murdered Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow weren't the first criminal couple, and Blake Fitzgerald and Brittany Harper certainly won't be the last – from bank robbery and kidnapping to rape, murder and even cannibalism, some of the most shocking crime sprees have been pulled off by outlaw lovers. Whether motivated by a mundane need to pay the household bills, a twisted desire to prove their devotion, or nightmarish sexual perversions, these 10 notorious partners in crime give love a very bad name.
