I can’t say for certain that I wouldn’t have killed anyone. If it meant saving my family — this is what always tears me apart — I don’t know how far I would have gone to save them I wish he’d just killed me and got it over with. There was so much needless pain and suffering, when I should have been the object of his ire. But I think Charlie just liked killing. He never asked me to do anything like that, he was more than happy to do it himself. I remember hearing he said “I always wanted to be a criminal, but not this big a one.” But I don’t think that’s true. He loved the notoriety and he loved being feared.

Charles Starkweather & Caril Ann Fugate who inspired the movie “Natural Born Killers”. Charles ( who was 18 ) was the boyfriend of Caril ( who was 13 ). Charles murdered the parents of Caril, then both stayed in the house with the dead bodies, before went on a roadtrip where they killed several people.

Charlie and I dated for about a year when he started to become increasingly possessive, wanting to keep tabs on me at all times. I was beginning to think he might be crazy, so, after expressing my concerns to my mom, I decided to break things off with him. He wouldn’t accept that though. He kept showing up at the house and eventually my momma had to get involved and tell him he wasn’t welcome there anymore. He turned to me and said that he’d make sure no man could ever have me. That promise held true until I eventually got married at sixty-three years old.

I came home from school and Charlie was standing inside the door. My mom, my stepfather, and my baby sister were gone. They were at this woman’s house — a friend or acquaintance of his or something. As long as I did what he said, he told me, they’d be just fine. But if I didn’t, all he had to do was make a phone call and they’d be dead. I suppose I was naive to trust him, but what other choice did I have? We stayed in the house for about a week. He had me put a sign on the door to keep people away, watching over my shoulder as I wrote. “Stay away,” it read, “Everyone sick with the flu.” Then I signed it “Miss Bartlett.” The only “Miss Bartlett” in the house was my two year old sister. It wasn’t suspicious enough that he’d think anything of it, and I could just as easily have used “Miss” instead of “Mrs.” by accident. But my mother wouldn’t likely call herself “Miss,” and I underlined the name twice for emphasis, so I hoped someone would catch it, and realize something wasn’t right. No one ever did. My sister, my brother-in-law, my grandma, even Charlie’s brother — they all came knocking, but if I let them in or asked for help — Charlie was standing behind the door, gun in hand. I just kept praying they’d see it on my face or pick up on my little clue. Finally suspicious, but clearly not cautious, my grandmother threatened to call the police. I’ll never understand why she made the threat instead of just doing it, but its the moment when things went from bad to worse.

We got in the car and Charlie drove to a farm he’d hunted at before. The farmer was friendly. He wasn’t suspicious or rude. He said we could stay there. Charlie had no reason to shoot that man, but he did. He shot him and then beat his poor dog to death with the butt of his shotgun. I thought “If he could do that to someone who hadn’t upset him, what would he do to me? What would he do to my family?” There was so much rage inside of him and he treated killing as a welcome catharsis. That was the moment — as he stood there, splattered with blood, contented and admiring his handiwork — that his threats really began to sink in.

Charlie couldn’t figure out how to work the emergency brake on this car though, and when a man came up to help, Charlie pulled his shotgun on him. Much bigger than Charlie, the man fought with him for control of the gun. A sheriff saw the commotion and drove up. I guess I just saw my chance. There was so much going on — the cop pulling up, the man fighting Charlie for his life, and the dead man sitting at my feet. I don’t even remember thinking, I just knew it was now or never, and I ran towards the sheriff like he was my last hope. I told him who I was, who Charlie was, and what had happened as Charlie jumped in the other car and tried to flee. It wasn’t long before they caught him, but my ordeal was far from over.

How would you feel if the fate of your existence was being decided by a bitter ex? I think most of us would agree that their opinion of you could hardly be considered objective. And yet, the state of Nebraska decided that Charlie’s testimony was going to be the basis of their case against me. That and a couple of “surprise” testimonies where state officials went back on statements they’d made previously. Isn’t the Justice system grand? See, initially Charlie admitted that I was a hostage, and two deputies agreed to testify on my behalf, having already defended me to reporters. In court, however, Charlie started blaming me for some of the murders, and the deputies told the jury I’d confessed. Despite nothing to back up these claims, their words were enough, and there was no one to stand up for me, seeing as, you know, Charlie killed my family and all.

I thought a lot about what I could have done differently. Sometimes I still do. People criticized my reluctance to escape, that I missed multiple opportunities. Those people have never been held captive by a psychotic ex-boyfriend with the fate of their entire family resting on their shoulders. It’s easy to pick apart my decisions, or to envision your own actions were you in such a predicament. But that’s all just fantasy isn’t it? Those are imaginary scenarios and imaginary reactions to those imaginary scenarios. It becomes much more complicated when you’re actually facing those demons. Still, these things change you. I think about it every day, all the pain and suffering those people went through. Those feelings never fade. Happiness is such a fleeting thing and excitement feels grossly unnecessary. 💔The End💔

Caril Ann’s story is interesting not just for how bizarre the crime spree was: her ex-boyfriend Charles Starkweather killed 10 people over the course of two weeks, & had killed another just two months prior. The fascinating thing is how it speaks to our society, the way we view girls as older than they actually are, & the fact that guilt often boils down to perceptions. It took a bit of research to discover that the state never actually claimed Caril took part in any of the murders. The entire case against her was based on her attitude. Essentially, they decided that because she didn’t act like a proper kidnapping victim, she was just as guilty as Starkweather. The only thing that saved her from the chair was the fact that she was only 14. She was sentenced to life in prison, but released after 18 years for good behavior. She has always maintained her innocence. In this series, I’m obviously not portraying a 14 year-old Caril, and I must admit that her age made me hesitant to tackle this story. But I think it’s important to call attention to the way that we, as a collective society, view teenage girls. There’s this insistence on perceiving young girls as older than they are, & if she’s not hysterical and wildly sympathetic, she must be up to no good. There is no “in-between” the young, sweet, innocent stage, & all the expectations and scrutiny that come with womanhood. I think it’s important to note that grown women will only garner the same sympathy if they’re deemed helpless (i.e. childlike) enough; but behaving as Caril did — in a calm & collected manner that likely had more to do with shock than anything, is a surefire way to be perceived as cold and uncaring. This must be confusing for teenage girls, particularly when you’re raised to put everyone else’s happiness before your own. We learn to present ourselves in ways others expect of us, but attempting to behave like a grown woman when your brain is still operating as a child’s can have disastrous effects on one’s development. For Caril, her efforts were both tragically futile and catastrophic as she attempted to placate the very dangerous Starkweather in what she saw as an effort to save her family.

This is what you’re expecting, right? A sexed up, rebellious bad girl, with a cigarette in hand and a switchblade in her nylons. That’s what they all wanted when I was on trial anyway — the lethal Lolita, the budding femme fatale, the teenage Bonnie to Charlie’s Clyde. A lot of people seem to have this fascination with the twisted romanticism of a killer couple. Maybe there’s something sexy in the danger of it all, or we’ve heard one too many stories of teenagers who would do anything for forbidden romance. Maybe it’s just easier to assume malice or insanity than it is to wrap your head around the irrational choices of a pubescent girl. Unfortunately, if you’re looking for that wicked, experienced-beyond-her-years girl, I’m afraid you’ll leave here quite disappointed.

This all started when I was thirteen, and my older sister introduced me to a guy named Charlie. He was older, a high school drop out, and he dressed like James Dean. You know how there’s just this appeal of bad boys when you’re that age? Unfortunately Charlie was a little too bad. One time he gave me a stuffed bear that he’d acquired by killing and robbing a gas station attendant. Of course, I didn’t know that when he gave it to me, and by the time I’d figured out just how bad he was, it was too late, and I was in way over my head.

I think my biggest problem was that I appeared calm. I went through bouts of hysteria, sure, to the degree where they had to sedate me at one point, but that was when I first learned that my family was dead, when I realized I’d stayed by Charlie’s side for nothing. After that — after realizing that everything I cared about and was fighting for was gone, it was just easier to shut down. I was also placed in a criminal asylum for holding until my trial. After everything I’d seen Charlie do, and the horrors of the asylum, I felt numb. It was the only way to survive. I was so young, and I’d lived such a quiet, relatively sheltered life up until Charlie. Then it was so much in such a short period of time. My mind couldn’t really process everything that was going on, it all felt surreal. But people read that as cold and uncaring.

People tried to blame me for a lot — that was hard. They said I killed Carol in a jealous rage, they said I watched television while Charlie killed my family ... while he put a gun down my baby sister’s throat. I didn’t understand how they could say these things. There was nothing to indicate they were telling the truth, but they were just allowed to print whatever they wanted. The thought that I could have been so callous... it’s always haunted me.

Ultimately, Charlie was sent to the chair and I was sentenced to life in prison. I was a model prisoner, and granted parole by the time I’d reached my early thirties. I worked in a hospital — my criminal record prevented me from ever becoming a nurse, but I was able to do custodial work, contributing however I could. It was something. I didn’t date for quite some time. But in 2007, at age 63, I met Fred and everything changed. I told him everything, and he still wanted to marry me. I had a family again. I’ve lived a pretty quiet life ever since. I was nearly killed in a car accident that took my husband from me, and a friend of mine wrote a book that she hoped would change public opinion of me a little bit, but for the most part I live an uneventful life with my stepson and his family.
