High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Benito "Bloody Sword" Bonito is the subject of a legend about a pirate who raided the west coast of the Americas. His career began around 1818 (supposedly because he could not sing) but from there on sources differ. According to one legend his ship was boarded by a British man-o`-war after Bonito exited Port Phillip Bay after hiding the so called "Lost Loot of Lima" sometime in 1821. He was given a drumhead trial and hanged.
