Pancho Villa assassin’s kin say U.S. government still owes reward
Tagged: border, family
Nearly 85 years after he was killed in an ambush, Francisco “Pancho” Villa is remembered in this border town as both a revolutionary hero and the man who invaded the United States on a March morning 92 years ago today.
A statue of him riding his horse – gun drawn, hat pulled back – romanticizes his exploits.
But for the family of José Sáenz Pardo, one of Villa’s assassins, the statue is a reminder of a $50,000 reward he never received, a bounty reportedly offered by Uncle Sam for Villa’s capture or death.”*
