In this premiere episode of WTX, host Jody Slaughter dives into the wild life of Judge Roy Bean, the self-proclaimed "Law West of the Pecos."
Step into the blistering heat of the 1890s in the remote town of Langtry, Texas. Here, amidst the dust and desert, Judge Bean held court in the Jersey Lilly Saloon with a pet bear by his side and a fearless grip on frontier justice.
Follow Bean's journey from a dirt-poor youth in Kentucky to his rise as a saloon-owning, gun-slinging judge who imposed fines on corpses and ruled with an iron fist. Discover the turbulent events that forged his legend—from deadly duels and tamale jailbreaks to his controversial rulings that left townsfolk in awe and disbelief.
This isn’t your typical history lesson. It’s a no-holds-barred look at the man who became a law unto himself in the wildest corner of Texas.
