   Some time back there was a very good article in one   
   of the scientific magazines showing the amazing   
   ability of forensic artists who reconstruct facial   
   features. Of course it's how depictions of prehistoric   
   peoples are created.   
      
   But all of this current nonsense ignores the fact   
   that there WAS a formal (for those times) coroner's   
   inquest with the usual sworn affidavits of witnesses   
   to the death of the Kid. It's highly unlikely   
   that all of those who witnessed and saw the body would   
   have been hoodwinked into identifying someone other   
   than the Kid, as well known as he was to all the   
   locals at that time.
