Joaquin Murrieta

Joaquin Murrieta Carrillo (sometimes misspelled Murieta or Murietta) (c. 1829 – July 25, 1853), also called the Robin Hood of the West or the Robin Hood of El Dorado, was a Mexican figure of disputed historicity. The novel The Life and Adventures of Joaquín Murieta: The Celebrated California Bandit (1854) by John Rollin Ridge is ostensibly his story. Legends subsequently arose about a notorious outlaw in California during the California Gold Rush of the 1850s, but evidence for a historical Murrieta is scarce. Read more on Wikipedia

His biography is available in different languages on Wikipedia. Joaquin Murrieta is the 178th most popular extremist (down from 129th in 2019), the 152nd most popular biography from Mexico (down from 105th in 2019) and the 2nd most popular Mexican Extremist.
