Officials drop plan to exhume 'Billy the Kid'
Three New Mexico officials looking for answers about the death of Western legend Billy the Kid have dropped their request to exhume what are believed to be the outlaw’s remains.
Sheriff Tom Sullivan, joined by deputy and Capitan Mayor Steve Sederwall and Sheriff Gary Graves, launched an investigation last year into the outlaw’s escape in early 1881 and Sheriff Pat Garrett’s killing of the Kid later that year.
