George Waitman/Weightman

"One of the most vicious outlaws in Oklahoma, Weightman was thought to have originally come from Texas and earned his nickname for his flaming red hair. By the time he wound up in Oklahoma he had become a horse thief and killer, reportedly having already killed four men and willing to kill more for the price of just $50. One of the most feared outlaws in Indian Territory, he was said to have enjoyed killing and often bragged about his deeds." Marshals killed Red Buck 04 March 1896.
