Wild Bill Returns to Shawnee

 


The midnight shift of the Shawnee Police Department visited their predecessor Wild Bill on what they called "his first midnight shift in over a century." The sculpture on Shawnee Mission Parkway was to have been created by artist Charles Goslin who passed the commission to Maretta Kennedy, according to posts on the Shawnee PD's social media.

A few years ago, I appeared in an episode of AHC's Gunslingers series on James B. Hickok. I had several friends involved in that segment--Thom Ross, Johnny D. Boggs, Paul Hutton, Drew Gomber, Bob Boze Bell. Even though it was recorded back in 2013, it still airs regularly. Watch the trailer here: https://youtu.be/2UbGYExkiI8
