George Dale

George Dale

George Dale (born 1895; died April 20, 1934) was the lover and criminal partner of Eleanor Jarman, dubbed by the press "The Blonde Tigress", and was executed by the state of Illinois for the murder of Chicago clothier Gustav Hoeh.

Dale was the triggerman in the robbery of Hoeh's store, and was the only one of the gang (the other member was Leo Minnici) to get the death penalty. Both Minnici and Jarman were sentenced to 199 years for the August 1933 murder. Minnici was paroled in 1954. Jarman escaped from prison in 1940 and was never caught.

One of Dale's last acts before his electrocution was to write a love letter to Jarman.
