Hardly a soul alive in north Louisiana isn’t familiar with the Bonnie and Clyde story and the way they died in nearby Gibsland, LA. Movies and documentaries have been made, and nearly every family has passed down the account of their life and death by word of mouth. 

Yet nobody knows if the accounts and renditions passed down are the entire truth, especially about their final days. That is until now!

Thanks to historian, Brad Dison, who is a resident of Bienville Parish and a weekly contributor of the column “Remember This” published by the Jackson Parish Journal, as well as many nationally syndicated periodicals and a YouTube contributor, no one has to wonder anymore if what they know is an actual account of what took place on May 23, 1944.

On Friday, the anniversary of that fateful day, 81 years ago, the book written by Dison entitled “The Trap” was released, giving a never-before-told account of what really took place by Bienville Parish Sheriff Henderson Jordan, the man who actually set up the ambush that killed north Louisiana’s most notorious outlaws.
