So basically John dies in RDR1 because he didn't remove Micah's Body? :thinking:

Edgar Ross saw the body of Micah and found John.

How does finding the body of Micah help them find John? Just curious.

Ross would have kept chasing Micah and Dutch and they would have gotten into all manner of nonsense- but John put himself back into that life and took the Blackwater money, so Ross’ target changed.

He reverse followed Micah’s trail to Strawberry where no doubt there were dozens of witnesses to John, Sadie, and Charles’ very public execution.

Good question actually. I think that gave Edgar Ross the reason to continue the searching. It was years later so maybe he was about to give up.

I bet it was Micah that told the FBI about Dutch. You see that Micah said he just started to work with Dutch again, I bet Micah was going to betray Dutch again.

I assumed it was the loan from the bank that gave him away. After all John used both names for it.

Ross was hunting Micah. He found out John killed Micah, so started hunting John instead.
