Wyatt Earp and Tombstone Justice in Contention City
The narrative recounts Wyatt Earp Virgil and Morgan facing a Contention City hearing on murder charges in 1882 with Johnny Behan resisting federal officers. Behan’s clash with Tombstone factions and Col Herrin’s vigilance committee lead to Phoenix style tension and the Earp tragedy that followed Morgan’s shooting and Virgil’s escape. The story frames Earp as pursuing justice within legal bounds amid rivalries and outlaw plots.
