Interview with a Man Who Assassinated Pancho Villa​

Picture
In the story of Mexico, few figures divide the imagination as sharply as Pancho Villa. To some, he was a hero, a symbol of rebellion and rough-edged justice. To others, he was a violent outlaw who preyed on, tortured, and killed his own people. 
​

In this recorded interview, history opens one of its rarest doors through the testimony of José Sáenz Pardo, one of the eight men who assassinated Pancho Villa on July 20, 1923, in Parral, Chihuahua.

Listen to the conversation that complicates the myth, reveals the man, and brings us closer to understanding the tangled legacy of Pancho Villa.
