What REALLY Happened To Billy The Kid 

You forgot to mention that Billy The Kid also met Jesse James and he hung out with his gang he also met Bella starr too and that was the only time he ever hung out with those outlaws wherever they're at in the great beyond they probably just laughing and having a good time

Ò😅​@@BrianLamar-es3my

Thank you so much for sticking to the facts instead of all that Brushy BS. This was very well done.

As soon as I heard the AI voice, I shut the video off. I didn't even last half a minute. So sick of AI voices and the ridiculous narrations.

What... no Young Guns footage? Horribly done

Where is this interview? I'd like to see it

Sounds like a fanciful tale.

Precisely my thoughts, friend ! It's sad that there are criminals in high places, but "the first shall be last" if power itself is what a man hungers for

Bushy Bill turned out to be a fraud.D.N.A proved that

thanks

He was railroaded

people crawling all over the capital and some say "they walked right in" or "just another tourist day"

Yea especially don duh Con Snorleone trumpf.

@@user-ly7np5rm5c lol that’s dude should be in prison a long time ago , but that money talks and bullshit walks

Billy's younger brother consistently stated he was born in New York in 1863. His stepfather said Catherine's husband died in New York. And all who knew Billy and spoke about it said he was from New York, because that is obviously what he told everyone. This includes Lew Wallace, a federal postal inspector that interviewed Billy in jail, as well as Ash Upson and Pat Garrett. I know what your source is, but even Morrison and Sonnichsen stated they could not prove any of this to be true, and nothing more than what the derelict Brushy Bill told them, sans any actual documentation or evidence. Meanwhile, Brushy's family has always maintained that he lived with various relatives virtually his whole life, still under his father's roof well into his twenties. But keep driving the fantasy, as it is very entertaining if absurd and silly.

I think Wallace was jealous of the attention Billy was getting. While he was in "jail" preparing to testify as promised, Wallace wrote of how the folks would come and make much of Billy, because they loved him so. Pretty sure Wallace never respected Billy and just used him, maybe never intending to honor the promise made.

@@Rollin_L I like and would agree with your point of view. Jealousy drives a lot of bad people into doing bad things. What don’t really surprise me is that fact that politicians back in those days were just as dirty as they are now.

Yep, it was Wichita Kansas

That was 10 years ago

no pat Garrett was not known to be a gun slinger he was a Buffalo hunter and a known lier

@@dennisdonovan2735 Name one lie told by Pat Garrett and provide a legitimate source for your claim.

Ok... I'll fall for it

No, that was J. Frank Dalton. 🤣

Several older films about the Kid, including some scenes from unrelated movies, I believe

Billy the kid on Apple TV series from 2020-2023 it was good that’s why I ended up here trying to see if there was a new season

Apple TV Billy the kid

@@michaelchapman6893 thank you, I was very curious. Looks pretty good

@@mgkatherman1 it really is i wish it had continued

Wild west extravaganza with A.i sounds like

You do know that they speak english in Ireland! Celtic gaelish is an ancient almost dead language that hasn’t been regularly spoken since 1400’s!

​@@ChristopherHughIm Irish,most Irish people have a certain level of the Irish language,quite a few are fluent.The language is far from dead and it is highly likely that Billy's mothers first language was Irish,passing it onto him..

@@buanobas9122 Thanks for the clarification!

@@ChristopherHugh Actually, in parts of Ireland the Irish language is primary, English the second language. This is true still today. I know of no evidence that Henry McCarty learned Irish as a child, but it is not unreasonable. It might well have been spoken among many in the slums of New York.

Looks like the Billy the Kid series on Amazon Prime.

It’s a tv show

When did Poe say that? It's a trick question. If you have actually READ what Poe and Garrett wrote, you will have the correct answer. If you don't, it will prove you never read their actual words and have no f-ing clue what you are talking about, Dennis the Menace.

Delusional. Pat Garrett gave the Acting Governor proof of the Kid's death just days after the killing, with his request for the $500 reward. The problem was that there was never a Territorial government offer of a reward, rather a personal offer from Lew Wallace published once in a newspaper, and Wallace had since resigned. The Acting Governor and the Attorney General even interviewed the newspaper editor, and determined that a special accommodation would be needed to pay from territorial treasury funds, so that it was 100% legal. In fact, the territorial legislature passed specific legislation, declaring that Pat Garrett had indeed killed the Kid and given ample proof, and authorizing the $500 reward. This is literally in the New Mexico government records, thoroughly documented. Billy Barlow is a fabrication of Brushy Bill's, end of story. The only person with that name in the region was two years old at the time, which makes him the same age as Brushy, interestingly. By the way, Billy's body WAS put on public display, for several hours in Fort Sumner, for all the village to see. Billy's own friends cleaned and dressed him, built a coffin and dug the grave. Well known members of the village (such as Paulita Maxwell and Jesus Silva) stated that virtually the whole population, around 200 people, saw Billy's body and attended his funeral. This is thoroughly documented from eyewitness testimony and sworn statements. Nothing you claim has a single piece of historic documentation. Not one page. But keep believing that religion. It helps keep the rest of us entertained.

@Rollin_L Brett Hall has more evidence than your same fabrications. Sorry but Garrett was a proven lair and a coward.

Yeah if you want to believe that Billy was killed and then in 1882 a good friend of his Jesse James met the same fate only by a cowardly move also Billy the kid and Jesse James met for the only times whatever happened during that 2 months when Jesse James was on the one only those two know

People always want to know something others do not. Billy was killed. Brushy BIll was a liar. And whole means complete

​@lancemorgan3400 you need to do some reading.

Brushy bill wasn't Billy the kid

brushy not billie

Aw, you mean Pat Garrett didn't take out his Kodak Instamatic and snap a picture of the body in the dark of night with his flash cube? This is just so dumb. Fort Sumner was a tiny village of 200 people. No doctor in town, no lawyer, certainly no photographer. Cameras were not owned by regular folk in 1881. It has been well documented that the nearest photographer was in Las Vegas, a 2-3 day ride in each direction. There would have been nothing but mush of any body in the July New Mexico heat after 5 or 6 days. What you are ignorant of is the fact that a handful of celebrated photos of dead outlaws in that time are outweighed by the hundreds or thousands of dead outlaws who didn't get their portraits taken. It was a very uncommon thing in reality. You had 200 villagers and other New Mexicans who saw the body, most all of whom knew Billy on sight. The standard procedure of the day was a Coroner's Jury, which was organized, signed off by both friends and enemies of the Kid, and that was the standard proof of the day required for all legal purposes. End of story.

A second photo was found on accident. Some guy bought what he thought was just a cool old tin picture. He got curious about its origin and got some “experts” to research and authenticate it. Turns out in the background of that cool old tin picture, Billy is playing croquet with Pals. True story. Look it up.

@@joshuawheeler8203 Yes...True

@@joshuawheeler8203 it's worth millions....bet that guy that sold it to him is kicking himself in the a--

@@michaellovetere8033 I actually laughed out loud when I read about it. If someone told me about the picture, then asked me to guess what he could have been doing in the background…Croquet would not have made my top 100.

Well if it were not for the whole 200 member population of Fort Sumner having seen Billy's body at the public wake and attended the funeral, you might have something. The bubble bursting is yours, pal.

You may be right on his original name, but there is no evidence Joseph was a step brother. Both were sons of Catherine McCarty by all accounts known, including that of stepfather William H. Antrim. Some have claimed Billy had a different father, but that is only speculation and not based on any known evidence. Pat Garrett lived by the gun and died by it as well. He killed nearly as many men as the Kid, and with no more legal authority. He shot without warning, admitting to giving orders to do so for his posse members. Billy Bonney was carrying warrants and was a deputy Constable during most of the killings attributed to him during the Lincoln County War. You didn't know that, did you? Justice of the Peace John Wilson issued the warrants and Constable Atanacio Martinez deputized Billy and other Regulators. According the U.S. Marshal Service Historian, David Turk, Billy Bonney was also deputized as a Federal Deputy Marshal by Robert Widenmann, and a record of this exists in the National Archives listing Bonney as part of the Marshal's posse. Historical fact, jack.
