The Fate of Billy The Kid

In this episode of History You Didn’t Know But Should, Ray and Christ dive into the fate of Billy the Kid. What really happened the night Pat Garrett pulled the trigger, and whether the story actually ends there. They explore the claim of Brushy Bill Roberts, who insisted he was Billy the Kid and lived to tell the tale. Along the way, they zoom out and talk about why conspiracy theories stick, how they grow, and what they reveal about our relationship with history. Sometimes the legend refuses to die...even when the history says it should.
