  • Brushy Bill Roberts, probablement né le 31 décembre 1859 et mort le 27 décembre 1950, de son vrai nom Ollie P. Roberts ou Ollie L. Roberts, est un américain qui a attiré l'attention en prétendant être Billy the Kid. Même si la revendication de Roberts a été rejetée par presque tous les historiens (et même certains de ses proches), son argumentation n'était pas entièrement dépourvue de preuves. L'affaire Brushy est promue par le « Billy the Kid Museum » dans sa ville natale de Hico dans le comté de Hamilton au Texas. Son histoire a encore été promue par le film Young Guns 2 (1990). Robert Stack fait un segment sur l'affaire Brushy au début de l'année 1990 sur la NBC dans l'émission Les Enquêtes extraordinaires. Ce projet a également soulevé la possibilité que l'histoire soit vraie. (fr)
