## Resource

In 1931, two Missouri inmates pulled off a jaw-dropping escape that turned into a full-blown crime spree—kidnapping four people in one day. Starting with a hotwired prison truck, they carjacked a woman, robbed a taxi driver (even stealing his pants), and forced another driver to take them to Omaha. The driver who swapped clothes with them ended up helping cops catch them. Despite the chaos, both got light sentences—five years for one, three for the other—and were paroled within three years.
