The murdered rancher had been considered a new father by Billy, who along with workers and friends obtained arrest warrants, granted by Judge Wilson de Santa Fe, against the murderers of Tunstall, forming a persecution group that was known to Los Regulators These orders were later annulled by the district judge who was a supporter of Murphy, leaving the group in an illegal situation.
