Early life and crime careerJarman was the youngest of eight children born to Julius and Amelia Berendt, in Sioux City, Iowa. She married and had two children with a man called Leroy Jarman. When Jarman left the family, she moved to Chicago, Illinois, and worked in odd jobs until she met George Dale. Dale supported her, although Jarman later claimed that she did not know Dale did it by robbery. On August 4, 1933, Dale, Jarman and Leo Minneci tried to rob a clothing store in Chicago's far West Side. In a struggle with the shop owner, Gustav Hoeh, Jarman clawed at him, but then Dale shot him. When the robbers drove away, several witnesses noted the license plate. That led police to Minneci, who blamed the other two, who were soon arrested. Dale blamed Minneci for the robbery. Jarman said that she did not know which one did it. She claimed she was in the back room looking for clothes. However, witnesses described how Jarman and Dale had entered the store and claimed she had threatened the clerk. Press made her a major player in all of Dale's crimes, dubbed her "the Blond Tigress" and compared her to Bonnie Parker (of Bonnie and Clyde). Jarman was not tried for robberies but for complicity in Hoeh's murder. Her defense attorney was A. Jefferson Schultze. The prosecuting attorney, Wilbur Crowley, called for the death penalty. George Dale was sentenced to die in the electric chair. As his last wish, he wrote a love letter to Jarman. Minneci and Jarman were sentenced to jail—Jarman for 199 years,[1][2] one of the longest criminal sentences ever imposed at the time. Her children were sent to live with her older sister and her husband, Hattie and Joe Stocker, in Sioux City, Iowa. After imprisonmentA model prisonerFor the next seven years, Jarman was a model prisoner at the Dwight Correctional Center (Illinois). In 1940, according to her family, she heard that her son was about to run away, and concerned about her children, escaped the prison on August 8, 1940,[3] with another inmate, Mary Foster.[4] She apparently went to Sioux City, Iowa, confirmed that her children were all right and then went underground. She was put into the FBI's Most Wanted list, but was never found. The 1975 meetingOver the next 35 years, Jarman maintained surreptitious contact with her family through classified ads.[3] In 1975, she arranged a secret meeting with her brother and sister-in-law, Otto and Dorothy Berendt, and her son Leroy who was in his 50s at the time. During this meeting, which the family disclosed decades later, Leroy tried to persuade Jarman to give herself up. She refused, and she said she was not worried about capture, believing the authorities had long since stopped looking for her. Communications with her family through newspaper ads tapered off in the mid-1990s.[3] A 1993 petition to grant Jarman a pardon failed.[5] Although Jarman officially remains a fugitive, she was born in {{Start date and age|1904|df=yes|p=yes}}, so it is likely that she is dead, and that her death was recorded under an alias.
