Detective Kenneth Mains On Why He Decided To Tell His Story In UNSOLVED NO MORE
The reason I decided to write this book is because I believe in doing the right thing. All too many times I see victims families not have any rights when it comes to cold cases. Law enforcement will tell them that they are still working the case and will not provide them with the opportunity to have a fresh set of eyes look at the case. As a veteran of law enforcement, I understand that the reason we do this is to not jeopardize the case in … [Read more...]

OUTLAW SOUTHWEST’s Ron Franscell On The Story Behind The Famous Photo Of Billy the Kid
Billy the Kid: Ten perfectly still seconds in eternity We know almost nothing of him, except her was a gypsy photographer, drifting the dusty roads of the territories. Trooping wearily from one far-flung town to another, he’d likely stop his dark-room wagon outside of busy saloons, brothels, maybe even a hanging.
