Chapter Eleven an Angel in Tombstone 1880 – 1881
Baker/Toughnut Angel/11 1 Chapter Eleven An Angel in Tombstone 1880 – 1881 Tombstone, Arizona Territory, 1800s (Courtesy Tombstone Courthouse) Nellie stepped off the stage onto Allen Street’s dusty board sidewalk. She turned to catch her carpetbag when the stage driver lifted it down, but stumbled over the hem of her skirt into the path of a dark-haired man with a full mustache. The stranger grabbed Baker/Toughnut Angel/11 2 her waist. “Whoa. Welcome to Tombstone! Got your balance there, Ma’am?” Nellie pulled her traveling skirt out from under her button-down shoe and noticed the man wore a silver star on his blue shirt. He took her grip from the driver and set it on the sidewalk. “My name’s Virgil Earp.” Next to him two other men attempted not to laugh. Virgil smiled, and indicated the other two with his hand. “May I present my brother, Wyatt, and Doc Holliday?” Earp, not a common name. These must be the Earps who had served as lawmen in Dodge City. She’d read newspaper articles and one of T.J.’s dime novels about Wyatt Earp. Doc Holliday stopped stamping his black boots to remove the dust, bowed at the waist and swept his bowler hat from his head. He smelled of leather and, what was that? Sage? “Indeed, welcome to Tombstone, lovely lady.” He drawled in a bass voice from under another wide black mustache. That made Nellie think of how Papa had always joked that men with mustaches were trying to hide something -- their upper lips.

Copyright: Copyright remains with Arizona State Parks and Trails, an agency of the State of Arizona.

Background Information History: Arizona State Parks and Trails was created in 1957 with the goal to “select, acquire, preserve, establish, and maintain area of natural features, scenic beauty, historical and scientific interest, zoos and botanical gardens, for education, pleasure, recreation and the health of the people…” Tombstone Courthouse became the agency’s second state park in 1959. The courthouse was built in 1882 in order to house the records for the newly formed Cochise County. The courthouse quickly became part of the successful effort to bring security and order to an area of loose organization and governance. After the county seat was relocated to Bisbee in 1929, Tombstone’s courthouse largely sat vacant until it was opened to the public as a historic park.

2014 Annual Report
YAVAPI COUNTY SHERIFF’S OFFICE ANNUAL REPORT Sheriff Scott Mascher FULL SERVICE FOR 150 YEARS SINCE 1864 WORD FROM THE SHERIFF The Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office mission is to enhance the quality of life by working cooperatively with the public to prevent crime, enforce the law, preserve the peace, and provide a safe environment through professional education programs aimed at promoting community involvement in various community services and crime prevention education. Currently the Sheriff’s Office has over 400 authorized positions. Of that number, 139 are certified officers assigned throughout the county and 210 are assigned to the Camp Verde Jail. The other positions are various support positions assigned throughout the county. The Sheriff’s Office also has over 1,000 volunteers at our disposal to assist use in our mission at any time. The Agency has three very distinct divisions that manage the specialty services offered by the Sheriff’s Office. The Detention Services Division manages both detention facilities, Camp Verde and Prescott. The Law Enforcement Services Division manages the field operations of certified officers throughout the county. The Support Services Division manages the entire agency’s records, both jail and law enforcement, along with countywide communications/dispatch services and the recruitment and training of personnel for the entire agency. The Sheriff’s Office has not published an Annual Report since 2003 and I believe it is a notable resource for the public so I decided to create one. I wanted to take a moment, thank everyone for their support of the Sheriff’s Office, and share some of the accomplishments this agency has achieved.

Tombstone Arizona's History and Information Journal
Tombstone Arizona’s History and Information Journal - September 2014 - Vol. 12 - Issue 09 - ISSN 1942-096X Interesting historical tidbits of news and information from the Town Too Tough to die. Tombstone Epitpah - December 15, 1927 “Oh! Oh! What a Night ‘Twas Says A. H. Gardner, Tombstone, Ariz. That Night Before Christmas “The evening’s entertainment began with a knockout. Johnny Walker – John W. Walker, you understand, then federal court reporter and fresh from Chicago – and I were just about putting the finishing touches to a roast mallard duck supper at the old Kreuder Café on Allen Street when Kreuder met one of his customers at the cashier’s counter and laid him cold with an uppercut that would have at that time done credit to even hard hitting bog Fitzsimmons. There were no frills to the affair. Kreuder just waited until his man came down the aisle, gave one glance at the check he handed to the cashier, and then applied a clenched fist to the point of his customer’s jaw. All was over but the shouting. “The proceedings struck me as not only being odd but as being carried out in a rather cold-blooded, businesslike manner. Being just from New York City, one might think that such an occurrence would have little effect on me. But I had never seen anything in which Kreuder laid low the man which 5 his establishment had just feasted. “Oh, yes! I did forget to tell you why Kreuder took a punch at his customer. It was this way. “I supposed the customer got some peculiar notion that a 50 per cent discount should be made on all T-bone steak dinners which he ate at Kreuder’s for every time a check for 50 cents was handed to him, he erased the ‘0,’ put a ‘2’ in front of the ‘5’ and then put the ‘cents’ mark – ‘c’ – after the ‘25.’ It seemed that the cashier became suspicious, told Kreuder CORNER OF 5TH & ALLEN STREETS about it, and according to the customs of old Tombstone of a quarter-century ago, the customer ‘had it coming to him.’ Forthwith Kreuder was duly bound to see that ‘it’ arrived in true western style.

CORRAL PRINCIPLE": FINDING THE PROPER ROLE FOR JUDICIAL NOTICE IN POLICE MISCONDUCT MATTERS BRUCE W. BURTON* I. INTRODUCTION For more than a century, American courts' varying uses of judicial notice in police misconduct matters have produced some notable political controversies. The contrasting models for such use of judicial notice illustrate the classic tension between authoritarian and libertarian values which informs so much of America's political history. Controversy has occurred regardless of whether judicial notice was exercised in conformity with a model that fears law enforcement's unique powers, presuming that the police are often driven by inherently predatory tendencies which threaten individual liberties, or by the contrasting model of judicial notice that sees criminal activity as a mortal threat to civil order. The latter model views the powers of law enforcement as society's last, and perhaps only effective, line of defense. A shootout of mythic proportions in 1881 near the O.K.

Wyatt Earp Program Transcript
Page 1 Wyatt Earp Program Transcript Narrator: Wyatt Earp loved cowboy movies. In the 1920s he would travel from one end of Los Angeles to the other just to watch the latest releases. Wyatt was always glad for an escape from the monotony of his tiny bungalow. But even more, he hoped the movies would vindicate him. Forty years earlier, in an Arizona mining town, Wyatt and his brothers were drawn into a bitter conflict that echoed through the West. Tombstone and the OK Corral had haunted him ever since. Casey Tefertiller, Writer: His one brother had been maimed, another murdered. He went out and got the guys who did it. There weren’t any doubts, there weren’t any questions, he believed he’d done right, but it would always come back to him. Narrator: Wyatt had long since grown tired of the looks and questions, of wondering whether the strangers just wanted to shake the hand of a killer. He spent his days imagining a movie that would set them all straight, starring Hollywood’s most famous cowboy, William S. Hart. “If the story were exploited on the screen by you,” he wrote Hart, “it would do much toward setting me right before a public which has always been fed lies about me.” Hart never made Wyatt’s movie, and Wyatt didn’t live to see his redemption. But within a few years of his death, writers and filmmakers turned Wyatt Earp into a new kind of western hero. This story of a man who took the law into his own hands answered a deep longing in a society that had been transformed by vast, impersonal forces.
