what if Bonnie Parker had gotten pregnant with Clyde Barrow's Child? what if the government had found out?, would they still be killed?
I'm sure that the government wouldn't kill a pregnant woman? or would they?, would Bonnie Be killed after she had been given birth to the child?, and where would the child go? you can also make names for the child too.
 
There would likely be more effort invested in capturing Bonnie alive, and her hanging would be delayed until giving birth, but there is no way in hell the government is going to stop the manhunt, and they would have been killed if necessary. They were going on a killing spree, and there is no way in hell the authorities would have declared a nine-month pause just for the sake of one unborn fetus.

Oh wow, but assume that the baby is born. Would the baby be put up for adoption?, or would someone in the family taken it?, and what if the public found out?, wouldn't the people have at least tried to stop the local government from killing Bonnie?

Basically the above. They wouldn't stop the man-hunt and if they police had to shoot to kill, I imagine they still would. If she is arrested and is pregnant, they'll either wait until she has given birth then kill her and put the child up for adoption, or a more sympathetic court, might downgrade her sentence to life without parole to raise the child for the first few years, depending on the mother's state of remorse in that regard. The law isn't as black and white as people think and a baby is something that would probably factor into a judge's sentence, though it would depend on the personality of the man residing. Clyde would still hang I imagine.
 
Does she give birth before her death in OTL? Does the child know who its real parents are?

If so I imagine they would probably try to give the child to relatives. How that child grows up could be very interesting, especially if they go into legitimate banking as a total irony.
