Bart Cavanaugh is a minor character featured in Red Dead Redemption 2.
History[]
Background[]
Born in northern West Elizabeth, Bart Cavanaugh was a cowhand and petty thug who joined the Laramie Gang, a group of hired guns. He was eventually forced to go on the run after being caught sleeping with the daughter of a cattleman he worked for, resulting in a bounty being placed on his head. Cavanaugh is wanted by the sheriff's office in Strawberry for multiple counts of assault, intimidation, and wanton destruction of property, with a reward of $60.
Events in Red Dead Redemption 2[]
The player can acquire his bounty at the Strawberry Jail after completing Gainful Employment. The player is tasked to locate the camp of Cavanaugh and his fellow gang members, only to find them mostly incapacitated by drunkenness and severe dysentery from drinking bootlegged liquor. After dealing with the other Laramies, the player can kill or hogtie Cavanaugh. If brought in alive, Cavanaugh will talk about how fun the partying was and insult the player as a coward for ambushing someone while they're sleeping. He also vomits while on the way to Strawberry.
