In this series, private investigators pick up where the historians left off, taking on a series of major cold cases in history, starting with the mishandling of evidence relating to the life and times of Billy the Kid.Cold Case: Billy the Kid tackles the myths and legends about the notorious outlaw one by one, considering the evidence from contemporary sources and looking at the physical evidence still extant today to consider the veracity of historical claims and considering the evidence through the lens of a legal investigation. In this first book, the writers tackle the evolution of an outlaw in myth and lore, claiming that Billy the Kid as a notorious outlaw is a manufactured concept. They offer evidence that the Kid was little more than one of several small time cattle and horse thieves whose rustling netted him only a small amount of intermittent income. He killed no fewer, and probably no more, than four or five men. For the most part he worked on ranches, notably those of John Chisum and John Henry Tunstall. The Kid, as a cattle thief, was known to many in southern New Mexico and the Texas Panhandle, along with a number of other troublesome rustlers.

Gale Cooper, a Harvard Medical School educated M.D. forensic psychiatrist, draws on her 20 years of Billy the Kid writings and research to write Cold Case Billy the Kid: The Plot to Steal Billy the Kid's Identity and to Defame Sheriff Pat Garrett as a Murderer. It is the definitive debunking of Billy the Kid imposter hoaxes: old men who claimed to have survived Sheriff Pat Garrett's famous July 14, 1881 shooting and to have lived to old age, and their profiteering promoting authors. For the first time, in one big book, with meticulous exposés and profuse sources, are included the 20th century pretenders, Oliver "Brushy Bill" Roberts and John Miller; and their 21st century revivals in the "Billy the Kid Case" forensic DNA hoax, and the Cold Case Billy the Kid megahoax, which combined them all. Not only are profiteering charlatans debunked; but, in contrast, the art, science, and labor of discovering real history are demonstrated. Additional concerns are voiced about irresponsible promotion of the antiquated pretenders and their false conspiracy theories in documentaries hawking "history's mysteries" and victimizing their unsuspecting audience. Hardcover and Paperback. 936 pages.

The one and only time Billy the Kid made the front page of the New York Times was when Cold West detective Steve Sederwall re-opened the century old cold case of two deputies murdered by the notorious outlaw when he escaped from the Lincoln County Jail. Now , for the first time, Steve tells the story of his investigation in detail.Excerpt"The Little Rat-Bastard", was pretty much the kindest description I could muster for Billy the Kid. I saw him as little more than saddle trash, on the opposite side of everything for which I've ever stood and as a result, I had no use for this buck-toothed derelict. I've worn a badge my entire adult life, I bleed blue, and admittedly it's from that perspective I had formed my opinion. As a result, I had no problem with Pat Garrett voiding this scumbag's birth certificate. Well, that is until I saw the "dirty". Everyone has a secret they hope will remain hidden; cops call that "the dirty". It's not until you see the dirty do you understand the entire truth. When secrets are hidden, there's someone who doesn't want the truth known.Cops understand the truth cannot be reached until you see the raw evidence and facts void of the spin. You'll overlook the dirty if you're unable to pick up the "tells". Those signs, always present, pointing to the evidence, which, if followed, will drop you off at the doorstep of truth.In a criminal investigation, you may find evidence pointing to guilt, or uncover evidence clearing the suspect; in legal jargon, the evidence in the suspect's favor is called exculpatory. The state is bound by law to disclose exculpatory evidence; however, the same does not apply to history.

Investigating History's Mysteries The assassination of Sheriff Pat Garrett, one of the most notorious lawmen of the American West, remained one of the most puzzling and perplexing unsolved mysteries for more than a century. As a result of sophisticated forensic analysis of the historical crime scene, as well as the discovery of new evidence, the mystery has been solved. Most know Pat Garrett as the self-proclaimed slayer of the outlaw, Billy the Kid, on the night of July 14, 1881, in Fort Sumner, New Mexico. The event propelled Garrett into regional and national headlines and generated a momentum that led the lawman to consider seeking higher political offices. Garrett's plans were thwarted by his self-destructiveness, however. In spite of his notoriety, he was a bumbling lawman, a debtor, an alcoholic, an adulterer, and addicted to gambling. After being removed from his position as sheriff, he retired to a ranch in Uvalde, Texas, only to be summoned back to New Mexico to investigate the disappearance of Colonel Albert Jennings Fountain. In this pursuit, he failed once again. Garrett's downward spiral created a sense of desperation in the lawman, and his continuing difficulties caused him to lose what few friends he had and generate numerous enemies. In time, his enemies had had enough of him and decided he had to go.

Gale Cooper's The Coroner's Jury Report of Billy the Kid: The Inquest that Sealed the Fame of Billy Bonney and Pat Garrett, 436 pages in Hardcover and Paperback, proves that it takes just that one Report to end all the Billy the Kid imposter hoaxes.

Even before he was shot and killed in 1881, Billy the Kid’s charisma and murderous career were generating stories that belied his brief life—and that only multiplied, growing to legendary proportions after his death at age twenty-one. In Thunder in the West, Richard W. Etulain takes the true measure of Billy, the man and the legend, and presents the clearest picture yet of his life and his ever-shifting place and presence in the cultural landscape of the Old West. Billy the Kid—born Henry McCarty in 1859, and also known as William H. Bonney—emerges from these pages in all his complexity, at once a gentleman and gregarious companion, and a thief and violent murderer. Tapping new depths of research, Etulain traces Billy’s short life from his mysterious origins in the East through his wanderings in New Mexico, Arizona, and Texas. As we move from his peripatetic early years through the wild West to his fatal involvement in the Lincoln County Wars, we see the impressionable boy give way to the conflicted young man and, finally, to the opportunistic and often amoral outlaw who was out for himself, for revenge, and for whatever he could steal along the way. Against this deftly drawn portrait, Etulain considers the stories and myths spawned by Billy’s life and death. Beginning with the dime novels featuring Billy the Kid, even during his lifetime, and ranging across the myriad newspaper accounts, novels, and movies that alternately celebrated his outlaw life and condemned his exploits, Etulain offers a uniquely informed view of the changing interpretations that have shaped and reshaped the reputation of this enduring icon of the Old West. In his portrayal, Billy the Kid lives on, not as a cut-throat desperado or a young charmer but as both—hero and villain, myth and man, fully realized in this twenty-first-century interpretation.

From the late 1870s to mid-1880s, Tombstone, Arizona, enjoyed impressive growth and prosperity as a result of the discovery of major silver deposits nearby. As in many boomtowns in the American West, its sudden prosperity attracted businessmen, outlaws, grifters, gamblers, prostitutes, and preachers. It wasn’t long before there was a desperate need for lawmen and law enforcement. Outlaws like Johnny Ringo, Curly Bill Brocius, Buckskin Frank Leslie, Burt Alvord, and a handful of other lesser known criminals, all faced off with the legendary lawmen, including the Earp brothers—Wyatt, Virgil, Morgan, and Warren—who to one degree or another represented law enforcement in this wild, no-holds-barred town. In addition to Tombstone’s reputation as a setting for colorful outlaw-lawman confrontations, it is also associated with a number of compelling and baffling mysteries. Ghosts are reported to roam the old taverns, hotels, opera houses, and other buildings. Eerie and unexplainable sounds and sights have been associated with Boot Hill, the famous cemetery, as well as the New City Cemetery. Cold Case: The Tombstone Mysteries investigates the real stories behind the mysteries, including unsolved crimes that await a solution. These old west cold cases continue to attract researchers and investigators to the town too tough to die.

Mains has investigated thousands of crimes, including working undercover with the FBI, solving cold case homicides, investigating the Mafia, and leading one of the greatest cold case organizations ever assembled. This is his story and that of the victims for whom he speaks. “A tremendous amount of respect for his investigative insights and his integrity.” —Jim Clemente, former FBI profiler and writer for Criminal Minds Unsolved No More will take readers on a journey with a struggling kid who barely graduated high school to a teenager who joined the Marine Corps and finally a man who put himself through college to accomplish his lifelong goal of becoming a police detective. Mains, who is routinely sought out by law enforcement and victims’ families to help solve cold cases, writes about his own investigations to show readers how he goes about solving crimes others had given up on. “Kenneth Mains is a law enforcement equivalent of a surgeon of cold cases . . . he diagnoses the issues and, working with precision, dissects the cases with consummate skill and care . . . I highly recommend this wonderful book if you want to understand the cold case investigatory process or if you want to dive into some cases that are filled with twists, turns, and more than a few surprises.” —Blaine Pardoe, New York Times–bestselling author
