Joe

Joe is a minor character and an antagonist in Red Dead Redemption II. He first appears as an associate of Micah Bell, and aids the Van der Linde gang in their robbery of a US Army train in 1899. After Micah betrays the gang and leaves, Joe and Micah’s other associate Cleet join Micah in creating his own gang up in the mountains of Ambarino.

Years later in 1907, John Marston, Sadie Adler and Charles Smith learn that Micah is still alive and journey to kill him as revenge for his betrayal that ultimately led to the fall of the Van Der Linde Gang and the death of Arthur Morgan.

Joe, along with two other gang members, encounter John as he makes his way up the mountain. After a brief confrontation, John shoots and kills Joe and his allies, continuing on his trek toward Micah.
