In May of 1978, Rondo and Billy Ray were hired by John Quincy Wydell to track down and apprehend three members of the murderous Firefly family; Otis B. Driftwood, Baby Firefly and Captain Spaulding. As an upstanding officer of the law, Wydell didn't necesarilly approve of the Unholy Two's methods, but in a short span of time, his obsession with the Fireflys overrode his moral sense of right and wrong.
Rondo and Billy Ray tracked the three killers to a Ruggsville brothel known as Charlie's Frontier Fun Town. He came up behind a prostitute named Casey in a bath house and cut her throat. Hethen got the drop on Baby Firefly and handed her over to Sheriff Wydell. [1]
