Antonio González Pacheco (10 October 1946 – 7 May 2020), known also as Billy the Kid (Billy el Niño[1][2]), was a Spanish police inspector in Francoist Spain who was charged with 13 counts of torture and sought for extradition by an Argentine judge in 2014.[3] María Romilda Servini had called for the indictment.[4] The request for extradition was refused by the Spanish High Court on the basis that the statute of limitations had run out on the accusation against him.[5]
