Colonel Jeremy Barnsby is the main antagonist in the 2009 videogame Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood.
Jeremy Barnsby is a colonel in the Confederate army who served in the Chattahoochee campaign who called for a retreat despite the fact that 2 brothers, Ray and Thomas McCall held the line. After the 2 brothers took leave to protect their family homestead (via threatening Sgt. O'Donnell), Barnsby accused them of desertion and swore vengeance against them as he held deserters like them accountable for the loss of Atlanta.
Even though the American Civil War ended in 1865, Barnsby never laid down his firearms and rallied ex-Confederate soldiers who weren't ready to accept defeat and robbed supply trains to the point they were hunted by the U.S Army and the Pinkertons. While awaiting extradition, Barnsby is rescued unwittingly by the McCall brothers, who believed they were liberating a gun runner to sell 300 rifles to a Mexican bandit named Juarez. Barnsby negotiated with Juarez to take the rifles and leave without the McCall brothers so he could exact revenge.
Barnsby interrogates the McCall brothers about why Juarez wanted 300 rusty rifles only to find out from the third brother William that it's payment for a medallion from the Apaches and that Juarez is swindling them. With the information he needed, Barnsby orders his right hand man O'Donnell to imprison the McCalls in a cabin, however, the three prisoners escape.
When the brothers reunite with Juarez, Juarez seemingly convinces them that Barnsby used him and they continue their journey for the medallion. However, Barnsby, with William’s information, secretly follows them in hopes of discovering the medallion so it could lead them to the gold and using that gold resurrect the Confederacy. The Apaches learn of Juarez’s deceit but the chieftain, Running River, spares the group at the request of his son, Seeing Farther, who is friends with William McCall who had warned him about the useless rifles. In exchange the Apache’s take their weapons, horses, and Marisa. Juarez, knowing Marisa was the one who originally knew about the rifles being defective and thus was the only one who could’ve told the McCalls about it, is more than happy to let the Apaches take her.
Seeing Farther, not wanting the medallion to fall into the wrong hands and seeing it’s potential to cause much more people to die, helps Ray and Thomas retrieve the sacred medallion. He entrusts William to have the medallion because of his passive religious nature which contrasts with the violent nature of his older brothers. Seeing Farther reveals Marisa’s love for Thomas which causes the brothers to fight which distracts the Apache men long enough for Seeing Farther help William escape with Marisa. Barnsby is then seen again with his soldiers leading an attack on the Apache village. Barnsby negotiates with Running River to meet him at the ghost settlement and hand over the medallion by sundown the next day or Running River dies.
Running River and the McCall brothers head to the ghost town and kill many more of Barnsby’s forces. O’Donnell then appears and demands a duel which the brothers accept. Barnsby retaliates by shooting Seeing Farther twice, mortally wounding him.
