Pat Garrett
Patrick Floyd "Pat" Garrett (el 5 de junio de 1850 – el 29 de febrero de 1908) era un Viejo Oficial de la Policía del Oeste Americano, camarero y agente de aduanas que se hizo famoso por haber asesinado a Billy el Niño. También era el alguacil del Condado de Lincoln, Nuevo México así como del Condado de Doña Ana, Nuevo México. El 20 de diciembre de 1901, Theodore Roosevelt, que se hizo amigo personal de Garrett, lo eligió recaudador de aduanas en El Paso, Tejas. Garrett sirvió durante cinco años. Garrett era tanto el pistolero como el oficial de policía, matando al amigo y el enemigo. Al final, Garrett murió como vivió: por el arma. Es sepultado en el Cementerio Odd Fellows en Las Cruces, Nuevo México. Los hechos son que en la mañana del 29 de febrero de 1908, Garrett y un hombre llamado Carl Adamson conducían en la calesa de Garrett en la carretera de Organ a Las Cruces, Nuevo México. A poca distancia de Las Cruces se le apoderaron de un hombre a caballo, Jesse Wayne Brazel, y pocos minutos más tarde, Garrett fue muerto a tiros. El cuerpo, cubierto con un manto, lo dejaron donde había caído cerca de la parte sur de la carretera. Brazel ató su caballo detrás de la calesa y con Adamson, llevaron al grupo de yeguas alazán de Garrett hacia Las Cruces donde se rindió y fue encarcelado en La Cárcel del Condado de Doña Ana.
