Billy the Kid & The Lincoln County War: Advise Persons Never to Engage in Killing
This is the tenth episode of eleven that will discuss Billy the Kid and the Lincoln County War that took place in New Mexico.
In this episode, Billy the Kid, Billy Wilson, Rudabaugh, and Tom Pickett are taken from Stinking Springs to Fort Sumner before heading to Las Vegas and then to Santa Fe. There is a tense moment on the train platform in Las Vegas. The men are interviewed by various newspapers. The Governor still ignores Billy & his pardon as the men sit in the Santa Fe jail. Finally, Billy’s taken to Mesilla to sit in the corrupt Judge Bristol’s court.
I end the episode with the court hearing, the verdict, and the sealing of Billy the Kid’s fate.
