Legend of Pancho Villa

Clip: Season 3 Episode 1 | 43sVideo has Closed Captions

Genealogy Roadshow details the life, death, and legend of Pancho Villa.

Pancho Villa was a Mexican revolutionary -- a Robin Hood of sorts. He stole from the rich and gave to the poor. But he was also a killer and a bandit. And because of his Robin Hood status, that made him somewhat of a folk hero.
