The Man Who Found Living Proof of Billy the Kid for Just $2

The whole team learned a lot about the timeline of how things happened when they looked further into the details. On February 19, 1878 Billy and Fred Waite went to serve a warrant for the death of their boss John Tunstall with Constable Atanacio Martinez. All three were thrown in the slammer by Sherriff Brady but Martinez was let free. Billy the Kid was left in jail with his good friend and forced to miss Tunstall’s funeral. So the rumors that Billy the Kid swore vengeance at Tunstall’s funeral were proved false. Furthermore, his anger towards Brady only increased when he was not able to send off his good friend.
