12. Billy the Kid
Read the Question.
Some people believed that Billy the Kid was not killed and went on to live a quiet life after his run-in with Pat Garret (or perhaps it never happened), why do you think that these types of beliefs are sometimes connected to individuals like Billy the Kid?
Scan the Blurb.
Billy the Kid was most likely born Henry McCarty and probably used the alias William H. Bonney during his lifetime. Billy the Kid made a name for himself through his shrewdness, confidence, and willingness to become involved in dangerous situations. Ultimately, it may have been these characteristics (and others) that led to his untimely death at the hands of Sheriff Pat Garret on July 14, 1881.
