Rattlesnake Dick Placer Unsolved

Was Rattlesnake Dick really the mastermind of the Trinity Mountain Express Robbery?  Did he and his accomplices really steal $80K in gold?  Is half of it actually still buried out here in Placer County?  And if so, can we find it?  Is the sheriff's posse truly responsible for Rattlesnake Dick's death?  And is he even buried where his headstone sits in the Old Auburn Cemetery?
