Bonnie Brown Heady was born on the 15th July 1912 in Burlington Junction, Missouri.A former gangster’s moll and prostitute, Heady along with her accomplice Carl Austin Hall abducted 6-year-old Robert Greenlease Jr. on the 28th September 1953. Heady collected Robert from his school in Kansas City, where she’d told a teacher she was an aunt who’d come to take him to visit his “sick” mother. The Greenlease family received a ransom note the following day for $600,000, despite Hall having already shot and buried young Robert. On receiving the money, Bonnie and Hall went to St. Louis where theypartied until Hall deserted Bonnie; he was arrested a few days later. On the 7th October 1953 Robert Greenlease’s body was unearthed at Heady’s home in St. Joseph, Missouri.Hall and Heady were subsequently charged with murder and sentenced to death in the gas chamber at the Missouri state penitentiary in Jefferson City on the 18th December 1953.
