Following the trailer, Billy, the orphaned teenager, draws his outcast ways from Jesse, who has already dived deeper into the life of crimes- castle rustling and robbing stores. Billy is allured by Jesse’s reckless and wild character and becomes his duplication in all fields. Jesse wholeheartedly welcomes Billy over into his outrageous ways.
Billy joins a New Mexican squad of cattle rustlers after growing into a wanted criminal for murdering a blacksmith in 1877. In 1878, Billy was blamed for eliminating three men in the Lincoln County War, including W. J. Brady, the Lincoln County Sheriff.
Billy was detained and convicted to hang, although, in 1881, he escaped from the jail, murdering two deputies in the procedure. At 21 years old, Billy the Kid dies from a bullet fired by Sheriff Pat Garrett.
