One of the many problems contemporary researchers have is that over the years, Tombstone had several fires and a lot of the original documentation was lost. It's also true that a lot of witnesses were lying their asses off. It's been said that there was one and only one non-participant that saw the entire gunfight, and did so from the safety of a second or third story window - Doc's mistress Kate Elder. The problem with Kate was that her testimony could be bought with a bottle of liquor and the last bottle would get the testimony the donor wanted. She was considered so unreliable that neither side called her as a witness. After all the testimony heard, and not all of it still exists, the coroner decided there was only one way to determine the truth. Any testimony by either side that was contradicted by the other was tossed out. His decision was based entirely on the facts both sides agreed with. Given the high running emotions and the lies, this isn't the worst way to come to a decision. Based on that, he decided in the Earp's favor. One witness rarely mentioned in these videos is a Canadian railroad engineer who just got into town maybe an hour or so before the gunfight. This man has no dog in this race. He testified that he overheard the Clanton-McLaury group say they were going to kill Virgil Earp. He ran around town looking for Virgil having no idea who he was. When he learned he was the marshal, he found Virgil and told him what he overheard, and then Virgil et al decided to confront the group. His testimony has survived, and it's a strong indication that the Earp side is more accurate.
I had actually already seen the Lancaster/Douglas version, where Deforest Kelly was one of the Earp's, and I had also seen the Hugh O'Brian Wyatt Earp, so the Star Trek episode confused me. Especially since I had even seen in books that the Earp's were the Heroes.
Born 1963 and raised in San Diego in 1887 two years after the railroads came to National City the population went from 5g to 45 g. City leaders wanted to change San Diego s image from a Wild West rowdy town to a more cultured city. A world famous concert pianist named Jesse Shepard was invited to town and a place of the arts was financed Called Villa Montezuma was built on 20 tj and K streets. While Shepard gave concerts to local bigwigs. Wyatt Earp was the owner manager of two gambling parlors and a saloon/brothel a few blocks away in the gas lamp quarter. Shepard took out a mortgage on the Villa to go to France to get his first book published. Using one of his middle names Francis and mothers maiden Grierson he would write about ten books. But when Shepard returned from France in 1890 the boom had busted and Jesses financiers John and William High had gone bust so the Villa was foreclosed upon and would have 12 different owners from 1890 to 1970. When visitors came to the Villa Montezuma they were always amazed and astonished to learn Wyatt Earp was running three errrrr businesses in San Diego at the same time. I was never sure if Wyatt sold out before the boom busted. Or if he lost everything like the High Brothers and so many other speculators did in 1889-90.

No heroes no real villains though all eyewitness accounts credit Holliday with the first shot. These were hard men with hard ways. Wyatt didn't want this neither did Ike Clanton but.........................
Thanks for the comment I agree they were hard men, when you look at most of the pictures of them all especially the Earp brothers it is in the eyes. I would not want to be on their bad side.

Your point was well taken, there is so much information on The OK Corral I had to cut out 20 minutes of material about the aftermath, witnesses, etc. That is why I put in the Star Trek clip because it is outrageous how out of the truth the hearing and deliberations were. It almost sounded like today's fake news. Then there are the first couple of movies and the Star Trek episode that are way off. The editing in my clips is even funny because it goes back and forth between the Wyatt Earp movie and Tombstone. Wyatt Earp {the movie} just about nailed the witness testimony of how the gunfight went. But there are funny things everywhere I could go on for days. In Tombstone Sam Elliot {Virgil} never drops Doc's cane even after being shot he still gets up with it in his hand. Thanks for the comment!

Thanks for the comment. I did the best I could to be as accurate as possible based on what I could gather on the internet. If I made any photographic errors it was not meant to mislead anyone. I appreciate the input, Alan.
Ike clanton is my grandfathers half brother and always tells me wyatt and their crew were the real outlaws they did a drive buy with no success and thats how the ok corral had pomped off
Wow, awesome comment. I don't doubt what you say, it is all in the eyes. The Earps look downright crazy in some pictures. What I mean is if you were on the wrong side of their ego you are in trouble. Ike Clanton looks relatively normal in the pictures I could find. Not the crazy eyes. I did see the hidden hand in several photos. Was Ike a Freemason? Just curious. Both my grandfathers were Freemasons and you would see that occasionally. Thanks for the information.

Great upload,very interesting, thank you😀😀😀
I'm glad you found it interesting! Your support means a lot to me.

Thanks so much for the information!
interesting and nicely illustrated but musicians in the background play far too loud ! good year to ya all !
Noted! Thanks for the input.
I think you got one of the pictures of Wyatt Earp mixed up with Morgan Earp at the beginning
Thanks for the comment It was hard to tell.
I had actually already seen the Lancaster/Douglas version, where Deforest Kelly was one of the Earp's, and I had also seen the Hugh O'Brian Wyatt Earp, so the Star Trek episode confused me. Especially since I had even seen in books that the Earp's were the Heroes.
The Star Trek version had me scratching my head, it is just so dark, weird, and off.
@@uscityfacts Notice on the Star Trek version there are so many more holes in the fence than there are cartridges in the firearms.
It was intense.
Thanks for watching! I’m glad you felt the intensity-I really wanted to capture those high-stakes moments!

Great info!
Sorry just to clarify I was the site-manager and live in caretaker of the Villa Montezuma Jesse Shepard house from 1997 to 2004.
Thank you for sharing your experience! It’s fascinating to hear from someone who was so closely involved with the Villa Montezuma.

It’s definitely a wild cycle! The world of gangsters is intense and complex. What are your thoughts on the motivations behind it?
@@uscityfactsmoney, same as always, just like all the gangster's killing one another in the River Quay when and where I was growing up.
Clanton was known for running his mouth and talking big, then backing down or outright running away when it came to backing his mouth up.
It's interesting how some people love to talk a big game but can't follow through. It definitely adds to the drama!

U77⁷and my sister are going on Saturday night so we can go out there soon ⁰
Growing up, I thought they were the bad guys- because- of you guessed it- the Star Trek episode.
Such a dumb episode they must have been hurting for material when that Star Trek episode was made. Makes no sense.

No you have what Richard Rule "says" happened and what Rule "says" witnessess said. None of us were there.

The gun fight took place on Allen St, not at the Ok coral.
Thank you for pointing that out! It’s always great to have viewers who know their history and help keep things accurate.

I will try not to, lol. Thanks for watching!
In my opinion, there weren't heroes or villains really. It all depended on who's side you were on.
Totally agree the story is ironic that it was about gun control and smuggling over the border, only the other direction.
Which pretty much means both sides were villains.
Many of these photos are misidentified.
