On a Saturday night in March of 1882, the youngest of the fighting Earp brothers walked into a billiard hall on Allen Street and started a game of pool with the owner. He was off duty, unarmed, and for the first time in months nobody in Tombstone seemed to be hunting him. Then two rifle shots came through the glass door behind him, and Morgan Earp fell across the table with a bullet in his spine. He was thirty years old. So why did the men who killed him never spend a day in a courtroom?
