37 holdups in one summer and she wasn't caught? Damn.
Love 'em or hate 'em - the omnipresent surveillance camera means something of this magnitude would be impossible today - altered hair color notwithstanding.
When I heard that, all I could think of was how exhausting that must have been! LOL. That's like one every 2-3 days. Well, no one could excuse her of being lazy!
She's like a character in a 1930's film noir Warner Brothers movie. Barbara Stanwyck would have played her.
You read my mind. That is a great movie.
I love Barbara Stanwyck movies. She always played hard-nosed, ladylike and intelligent characters. I need to revisit her movies. 💖
@@sunrae7680 She should have won an Oscar for Double Indemnity.
If they do make a movie about her I vote for Scarlett Johansson to play her.
Your stories are so intriguing and captivating! Your oratory skills and dedication to detail is top notch!! I love your channel! Hello from Texas in the USA!!
I was about to comment the same thing, you said it better. 🙂
"Wild parties": Stock footage of the smallest most unenthusiastic wine sip ever 😂
And it looked like water haha
THAT lady really needs to settle down lol
😂
Hashahahahaha!!!!!! I've given wilder parties sound asleep. That's actually true.
I spent 10 years in Glasgow Scotland. I quite enjoy listening to your Glaswegian accent narration.
I miss Glasgow! I'm from Knoydart
Back to back days? HECK YES
Another story I had never heard of! Loving your channel right now!
Wow! It’s amazing to see how far this channel has come. I think I subbed back when this channel was at like 10k or something. Couldn’t believe more people weren’t viewing this channel. It’s so great to see how much DC has grown. That 100k is just around the corner! Keep up the good work 🖤
After waitressing, holding people at gunpoint for money much have seemed fairly relaxing!
Hilariously true! Not that I know about the second part, but can imagine!
T t y⁵yþ¹_
clearly she was a bad person, but geez, this womans life would make an awesome movie
Agreed! I vote for Scarlett Johansson for the lead.
Reminiscent of Bonnie and Clyde
Media overhyped her involvement
Thank You Miss!!! Awsome Job!!! 🌹👍😎
Thank you, @Dark curiosities. You do good work!
You tell some great stories! I have only heard about 15% of the cases you bring to us - I love it. Thanks for bringing these older (and sometimes odder) cases to light.
What a fascinating world we live in :)
I saw an old Gangbusters show on Decades about “the blonde tigress.” I had NO idea that there was a real woman behind that sensational story.
Elizabeth Finkler Hanasaki Gangbusters stories are based on real criminals and real crimes like Dragnet.
My brain read that as ghostbusters.
We are getting spoiled! Thank you for another interesting video.
Your stories are always unique and beautifully told but this one was especilly engaging. Thanks.
I am from Sioux City and have friends who are related to Eleanor, yet they never heard of her. Really crazy to see this on YTube. A Sioux City legend that nobody heard of.
How do they know they're related to her if they've never heard of her
@@louisacapell My question too!
Not sure who you are friends with. I am Hattie Berendt's great granddaughter. This was totally kept quiet in the family out of shame. It is more talked about now.
@@pammarshall704
So where is she now?
there are a lot of jarmans in sioux city who arent direct descendants of eleanor so thats why they havent heard of her. I am one of her 2nd great granddaughters
Love your enchanting storytelling skills! I am awestruck and always super interested in all the people and stories you research. I am also amazed at the footage you find and put together. Thank you so much for doing this! You do such a beautiful job!
This was a great piece of history. Thank you for sharing.
That's a great story, amazing that I've never heard of it
What a voice, my favorite.
Have a listen to Kirsty Skye 😜👍🏼
PERFECT.
@@janetcw9808 known now
Just want to say thank you for your videos, they are absolutely great, especially that you go straight into the story without faffing about subscribing and blah blah and for that alone I have subscribed. Great job.
I love your voice and narration ❤️
It's just lovely, isn't it?
@@gSlover4reel Yes, it really is!
Polite recommendation, Kirsty Skye, you will love her too.
Best wishes x
To be honest, I can't imagine her family being so desperate to see her. She's a vicious, violent murderer. I guess it takes all sorts and they'd have a romanticised view of her. And, not too honest themselves, being in touch and even seeing her and not turning her in, knowing she should be behind bars.
Same with Bonnie and Clyde. They were pretty much serial killers.
It's easier to romanticize someone you don't have to live with.
She seemed to have no regard for others struggling in the depression. She kicked him after he was dead. I get it she needed money but to be cruel, robbing and killing? Surely a bit of kindness doesn’t cost a thing to show
She's awesome
I can't wait for the book.
New subscriber! Love the channel! I'm glad I happened upon you guys. Keep up the good work.
Thanks DC. Stay safe.💔😷🦌
Those family members who helped her all those years should be held accountable.....aiding and abetting a fugitive.
Would you turn your family member in?
Fantastic commentary! Thank you.
I found your channel last night thanks for your content. This helps me stay awake during my night shift. ❤️🙏🏼
Very well done telling this story. Enjoyed it very much. Thank you for sharing.
I binge watch your channel on my days off, thank you from Ohio, USA ✌
I want to cry for Gustav.
I _hate_ accidentally shooting a guy four times. Whenever it happens, it’s so embarrassing.
Enjoyed your video I love to hear you read.
Great and very professional presentation ♥️🖤🦌
Awesome Video💖Thanks So Much😉💙
Subscribed. Another good video thank you!
this is pretty neat this is my great great grandma on my moms side, really sucks she felt the need to leave my great grandpa leroy and his brother
A new book, "In Search of the Blonde Tigress: The Untold Story of Eleanor Jarman" (Lyons Press, 2023) by Silvia Pettem, is now available and sheds new light on this elusive woman.
If hollywood makes a movie I say Scarlett Johansson for the lead.
there's no such thing as getting away or escaping from punishment when you've done wrong, it's a spiritual law that is always fulfilled. She might've escaped and evaded the law for her entire life but she had no truly free life and forfeited a normal, happy life with her family for her "freedom".
Maybe she was happy when she was doing what she did? Lmao
What a fascinating lady! There’s very little about her on TH-cam and online. Thank you for telling us about her legend. I wish I could have helped her while she was alive. I would have liked to have been her friend and keep her secret:
I hope hollywood makes a movie on her.
Another interesting story! Thank you!👍👍👍👍
🖤 Dark Curiosities 🖤
Eloanor has no one to blame, but herself.😷
Covid’s over. Take off the mask. You look stupid.
Yeah, but 199 years for accessory?
Holy shit! The way they communicated is in the second episode of the Simpsons to feature Homer’s mother, Mona. That’s crazy
This story has to be the inspiration of Mona’s character
Many criminals used the ads to communicate with each other or family. She was not unique .
Yeah that’s the first thing I thought of. That was a lame episode, though.
My favorite channel!!
Perfect Tuesday afternoon!
And you thought there was only Bonnie and Clyde were the only bank robbing couple. Except Bonnie wasn’t a psycho.
No Bonnie and Clyde were doing what a lot of the era's 'outlaws' were doing:
trying to survive. The rest is the media and authorities painting them a certain.
Add myths and romanticising both them and the great depression: load of BS.
It was poverty on a level that destroyed the entire structure of America and beyond.
No wonder some took the law into their own hands? When you're trapped with no choice and been abandoned? You'll do anything.
Not even close to the only ones. And Bonnie might not have been a clinical psychopath, but she wasn't nice either.
@@davidhanson4909 quit being dishonest. You never ever knew her.
Some witnesses reported she was just as cold of a killer.
Really interesting.
What a fascinating story! A Film Noir come to life. Wonder where she is buried?
Thanks for another upload, it appears I have missed 5 videos! Making my way through them.
Gripping case and beautifully read.
That was a great one! Love it.
Her story would make for an interesting movie. Come on Netflix!!!
Yes but they would have to make up the part of her "new life" since nobody knows.
Screw the corrupt evil Netflix.
@@sstritmatter2158 Not exactly. It could be like "Escape from Alctraz."
Scarlett Johansson for the lead in my opinion.
Great story thank you DC, have listened slowly to grasp the full thing.
Didn't watch the pics as veg tending but.
In respect of some of the previous comments, what's the difference between a 'psycho' girl being married off at fifteen FIFTEEN 😱 then getting involved in complete badness to a couple going robbing and shooting pls?
Both scenarios seem to include poverty to me although hundreds of millions of people in poverty don't murder or - please all correct me if I'm wrong.
However.
Good wishes to you, all you love and followers Worldwide.
Blessed Be Xxx 🙏🏼 ❤️ 🗺️ 🍀 🏴
🖐🤣😂💕hope you are staying safe Janet. Good to see you again.
🍃Take care. 💜NYC🍃
I knew an older woman who died this year (at 99!!) who got married when she was 16... had been married to the same man for 75 years he sadly died 8 years ago... they were in poverty they just loved one another and got married.
Who is putting dislikes on these videos? These videos are well researched, and offer great respect and empathy to the victims and their families.
Don’t know but I actually loooooove her videos & I think that she has the most perfect & well spoken English I’ve ever heard & her pronunciation is flawless. What’s not to like……
Bizzare case. I live North of there.
Just a thousand more subscribers and you will reach your first milestone. Order the champagne 🥂
This is a whole different "disappearance" story of your channel!
What a life she has !!!
Refreshing To Hear Of A Decades Long Prison Escape Success Story -- She Survived
Some Nasty Odds In Her Career , Her Incarceration , And Her Second Life , Which We
Know Nothing About , To Have Her Last Nosethumb At Conventional Society . One BAD
WARRIOR !
Kind of wild to believe that she kept her nose clean for that long. 35 years from the escape until the last time her family saw her alive, while it is possible, it becomes problematic, in that she was called "the most violent" in the early 30s. But anyway this was a good one DC.
the 30s were all about sensationalism and trying to sell more papers. stretching the truth a little. that's not the problematic part. her not being arrested again doesn't mean she kept her nose squeaky clean but anything is possible. criminology isn't very sure of "all re-offend" like it pretends to be.
My daughters name is Eleanor. She's tough as nails and too smart for her own damn good! Don't mess with an Eleanor.
What is a blackjack saw? Google did not know.
Nat Ford Glad I’m not the only one. Whatever it is - I want one.
I think they meant a black jack it’s a leather lead weighted object that is used to wack people over the head with it they showed a picture of it in her hand while they were talking about it in this video.
A flap jack? Aka a black jack? As in not a saw but a bouncy metal paddle enclosed in leather that you can crack someones head open with. They're sold as self defense supplies
Binge reading right now.
No life of crime is worth being away from my boys "my nephew babies".
I know ppl are crazy in Cincinnati or Dayton Ohio I live in Middletown. 30 minutes from both places. We have to many crazy in this town. I waiting for the day I know someone 🤦🤷
It's sickening that not one person did the right thing & instead chose to help a vile heathen avoid being returned to the cage that she deserved to live in.
199 years?
I’m her great grandson, and with the family knowledge, I can say we believe the media overhyped her involvement in the crimes. Don’t speak on things you don’t really know about, we were still talking with her until the mid 90’s.
That's a real OG!!!!!!
Eleanor was my great great grandma, very cool to find this video. I was born in Sioux City. The family was in contact with her til the mid 90’s. I can tell you for a fact she was alive in 1993. I know the answer to some of that “mystery”
How would you feel if hollywood made a movie about her?
When I worked at the academy of the Illinois Dept. of Corrections I occasionally made trips to various prisons. One day I went to Dwight Women's "prison". I was surprised. Rather than the castle-like, ominous feel of Illinois' oldest prisons, Dwight was almost charming. Non-violent women lived in dormitories called cottages, basically four-plexs sprinkled around the grounds. Built in the 20s (?) in a quant style with screen porches and furnished throughout with wicker furniture built in male prisons. After seeing some of the mens archaic institutions I was happy that at least the women were treated with a little compassion. No walls, just fencing.,. The public in that era considered most female offenders to be brought down by actions of criminal husbands and boyfriends.
Cool story
I would assume there is a statute of limitations on escapees but apparently not.
If they ever make a movie I lobby Scarlett Johansson for the role.
That one was pretty good.
Great episode. Too bad though she was not apprehended. Many people have very difficult lives, there’s no mistake about that however it certainly seems to me that she had the comprehension of right and wrong and basically kicking this guy to death along with her two thug buddies would seem to me to be a fairly heinous crime. It really does not sound like she took any real responsibility and again blaming her woes on single parenthood etc. doesn’t wash. I hope she felt life on the run every hour of the day.
I Wouldn't Be Surprised If She Became A Victim Of A Crime...Perhaps, Poetic Justice???
Looks like we'll never know...
🎉
Eleanor seemed quite a character,good ☝,sweetly told as usual😉
They should do a movie on her escape like "Escape From Alcatraz." If they do I want Scarlett Johansson for the lead.
I think you meant 6232 Drexel Boulevard, not Avenue. There's both in Chicago.
You don't hear a ton about sioux city although they called it "little Chicago". I grew up near there.
Eleanor fought the law...and she won!
Like Frank Morris.
dude should have just let them get away wtf was he thinking
A shroud smooth criminal.
This reminds me of ma baker by boney m
Me too hahahahha
What is a blackjack saw?? I'm familiar with a blackjack, but isn't it just a weight encased in something that is used for clubbing?
Bonnie of Bonnie and Clyde should have learned a thing or two from Ellen. She got what she deserved. She stayed in hiding and she would rather spend her life on the run. She was stupid l think because I would not want a life like that. She should have turned herself in. Serving her sentence
I don't think she's stupid per say. I think her crimes were stupid. The fact that she escaped and disappeared is amazing.
The good old days before bleeding hearts took over and killers got what they deserved. Shame about the poor black people framed though.
Leroy must now deploy
That was a fantastic tale Kirsty. She vanished alright. Dangerous woman.🧚♀️
Dark Curiosities isn't me Finola! She is my twin sister 😁💙
@@KirstyCampbell22 Knew you were sisters but didn't know that you are twins.
ALWAYS promote you, and that's before I read this bit 💖
I would like ti know MORE..Im thinking i just so possibly am her GREAT GREAT GRANDDAUGHTER..I've heard stories butt.....can you tell me MORE?
im am one of her great great granddaughters, my family doesnt think she had any more children
What is a blackjack saw?
Perhaps she means sap rather than saw? I understood it to mean a weighted weapon for smacking people in the head from the illustration.
@Omara Oliver Please, do so on our behalf and let us all know what you find!
💛💛💛🤪
And spent the rest of her days looking over her shoulder using an alias. Some freedom.
Ah well she deserves that and so much more for her thriving murderous ways.
Wait how do you know that the haberdashery owner was suspicious because of the "cold stares" since you said he died during the robbery. How do we know his state of mind or experience of the event?
I wondered the same thing!
the og gaslight gatekeep girlboss
She was one hell of a lousy mother!😠
Nevertheless, her kids turned out alright.
Yeah but she was a sociopath so the kids were probably better off without her.
@@JM-vp3xb I wouldn't call her a sociopath. Criminal, thief, outlaw, crook... Those sum her up better.
They are evil plain and simple.
Who?
It’s not pronounced teegress lol, it’s tigress as in tiger .
I don't know why I thought it was pronounced tee-gress. Maybe I got confused with another word!
Dark Curiosities
👍🏿Excellent video, regardless the pronunciation.
Back then - as now - if more effort was put into rehabilitation and less emphasis on "punishment", we might live in a less heinous society. Neither the death sentence nor "life without parole" take into account the miscreant's capacity for repentance.
Unfortunately, rehabilitation is very difficult to assess acurately and can be faked easily by any criminal wishing early release. Many if not most people convicted of violent crimes have established this behavior as a way of life. It' their method of dealing with conflict, resolving differences, handling disagreements, etc. It"s how they get their way. I don't believe that, in most cases, that they don't realize that it is wrong. Quite the contrary in fact. Most use violence against weaker and unarmed victims, not those who are able to defend themselves. They use it in the commission of crimes, not in everyday coversations (usually!). My point is that effective rehabilitation means bringing about a complete paradigm shift in the inmate, not an easy task. Extremely difficult at best, and even harder to ascertain the degree of success. At some point it comes down to releasing them and crossing your fingers, hoping for the best. A bit iffy since most will be released right back into the domestic, economic and social circumstances that fostered and bred the personality and behavior that landed in the system to begin with. Those are powerful forces to resist or to deal with using unfamiliar and less successful methods than the violence they came to rely upon in the first place. Discouraging but unfortunately true that in their world, if you are not a predator, you are prey.
derby1884, you have led a very, very sheltered life!
