Bank robber Charlie Parrott recalls 20 heists in mixed Midwest towns
Adair County Oklahoman Charlie Parrott, 42, once labeled a coward robber, claims a career of about 20 bank robberies across Oklahoma Missouri Arkansas Kansas and sawed off by a five year statute of limitations. He says the crimes began in 1958 after bootlegging losses and notes his parole from a Kansas prison after seven years of a 20 year term. He describes the spree as random, with minimal police presence in small towns, while recounting acts of seeming charity to locals.
