No, Joe Byrne did not turn in Ned Kelly. Joe Byrne shot his lifelong friend Aaron Sherritt because Sherritt informed on him and the Kelly gang to the police, betraying their position. Sherritt was killed, along with two troopers, in a confrontation with the Kelly Gang at Stringybark Creek. Because of this murder, the stakes were raised on the need to capture Ned Kelly.

How did the Kelly gang start?

The Kelly gang consisted of Ned Kelly, his brother Dan Kelly, Joe Byrne and Steve Hart. Steve Hart was a mate of Dan's. Ned met Joe Byrne through a mutual friend Aaron Sherritt whom Joe had met in gaol. Steve and Joe were almost accidental members of the gang, other members might have been Wild Wright, Aaron Sherritt or Tom Lloyd Jr., or any one of a number of others. The Kelly Outbreak was the cumulative result of many things, one being the poor treatment of Irish Catholics by the British Colonial Government, another being the problems of Squatters and Selectors squeezing poor settlers off good land, and the largely corrupt Victorian Police doing whatever they liked to whoever they liked. It was only a matter of time before the victims of Colonial oppression exploded.
