chevysoldier Posted January 9, 2011 Report Share Posted January 9, 2011 http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/12/31/richardson-declines-pardon-outlaw-billy-kid/Billy the Kid is still an outlaw. New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson announced Friday he would not grant a posthumous pardon to the infamous Old West bad guy, after drawing international attention by entertaining a petition on Billy the Kid's behalf during his final days in office. Richardson's term ends at midnight. The pardon request had centered on whether Billy the Kid, who was shot to death in 1881 after escaping jail where he awaited hanging in the killing of a sheriff, had been promised a pardon from New Mexico's territorial governor, Lew Wallace, in return for testimony in killings he had witnessed. The proposed pardon covered the 1878 killing of Lincoln County Sheriff William Brady. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
