The outlaw who taught Jesse James to kill

Edit - I will give credit for this answer. We were going for the name, but I could not find any sources indicating that Jesse James killed anyone before becoming part of Bloody Bill's guerrillas, so it appears that Anderson could be considered responsible for teaching James to kill.
