Bonnie was never a criminal until she fell in love with Clyde. His influence on her fragile state turned her into what she became known for. Since he was a robber, the most important thing to her was money. The worse the crimes were, the closer their relationship and love for each other became. Clyde’s values were to kill and run away for money. Bonnie followed right in his footsteps looking at him like he is her prince charming when really he is just a criminal. This theory really focuses on how one learns from the influencer. Bonnie could probably never shoot a gun or know how to run from the police with a bag of cash. Her background and childhood shows none of this for a future. The only think on Bonnie Parker’s mind during this rampage was Clyde. He was the most important factor to her new lifestyle and he is the reason she went to downhill. Bonnie Parker said herself, “Never go crooked. It’s for the love of a man that I'm gonna have to die. I don’t know when, but I know it cant be long.”
