BILLY THE KID’S LAST LIE: Ballistic Proof He Faked His Death and Died Rich in Arizona

Billy the Kid’s "grave" is empty. Using 21st-century forensics, this episode debunks the myth of Pat Garrett’s famous kill shot. Instead, we trace the Kid’s escape to Arizona—where he lived as "John Miller," a wealthy cattle baron with 5 children—through DNA-matched hair from his mother’s Bible and a .44 caliber bullet lodged in a ranch wall matching his pistol. Historian Jerry Skinner admits: "The West’s greatest outlaw conned us all." Skip to 44:00 for the exhumation evidence.
