Photo of Jesse James and the man who killed him

Sandra Mills of Spokane, Washington claims this photo depicts infamous outlaw Jesse James and Robert Ford, a member of James's gang who shot him in 1892 to score a $10,000 bounty.

"This photo was taken when the two men trusted each other and the younger Robert Ford wanted a picture of himself with the man who had become a legend in his own time," says Houston Police Department Lois Gibson, who compared the photo to others of both men.

Mills says that generations ago, her family welcomed the James Gang into their home when they were on the run. She received it from her grandmother in 2003 who encouraged her to sell it and buy property. She tried but nobody would bite.

"I'm just a farm girl, so nobody wanted to listen," Mills says. "We got no respect from anybody."
