Dinner with Edwin Alonzo Boyd

Source: http://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.com/en/article/edwin-alonzo-boyd/

I chose Edwin because he is known as a notorious Canadian bank robber and I've always wanted to meet a real bank robber just to learn their point of view and see how they see why they think what they do is right. Five questions I would ask Edwin would be; How much did you end up getting away with? What ere the thoughts on 2 of your gang members killing the police detective? As a police officers son why did you resort to robbing banks? How did you escape prison twice? and after a life sentence why were you released after only 10 years? From Edwin we can learn that people will do anything for money even rob and kill. I do not believe Edwin would be a good role model because as much as people can change in prison some life dissensions can not be erased.

  1. There is a pretty good Canadian movie about this guy (who came from Hamilton, I think). It's called Edwin Boyd: Citizen Gangster.
