  • John Harris Behan (October 24, 1844 – June 7, 1912) was an American law enforcement officer and politician who served as Sheriff of Cochise County in the Arizona Territory, during the gunfight at the O.K. Corral and was known for his opposition to the Earps. Behan was sheriff of Yavapai County from 1871 to 1873. He was married and had two children, but his wife divorced him, accusing him of consorting with prostitutes. He was elected to the Seventh Arizona Legislative Assembly, representing Yavapai County. In 1881, Wyatt Earp served for about five months as undersheriff of the eastern half of Pima County. When Wyatt resigned, Behan was appointed to fill his place, which included the mining boomtown Tombstone. When Cochise County was formed in February 1881, Behan was appointed as its first sheriff. Tombstone became the new county seat and the location of Behan's office. Sadie Marcus was his mistress, possibly as early as 1875 in Tip Top, Arizona, and certainly from 1880 until she found him in bed with another woman and kicked him out in mid-1881. After the Gunfight at the O.K. Corral, Behan testified at length against the Earps. He supported the Cowboys' statements that they had raised their hands and offered no resistance, and that the Earps and Doc Holliday had murdered three cowboys. After the Earps were exonerated, Deputy U.S. Marshal Virgil Earp was maimed in an ambush on December 28, 1881, and assistant deputy Morgan Earp was killed by assassins on March 18, 1882. The outlaw Cowboys named as suspects in both shootings were either let go on a technicality or were provided alibis by fellow Cowboys. Wyatt Earp killed one of the suspects, Frank Stilwell, in Tucson. Deputy U.S. Marshal Wyatt and his federal posse set out after other suspects, pursued by Behan and his county posse composed mostly of Cowboys. Behan's posse never caught up with the much smaller federal posse. The Earps left Tombstone under a cloud of suspicion. Sadie left Tombstone for San Francisco in early 1882, and Wyatt Earp followed her to San Francisco, where they began a lifelong relationship that lasted 46 years. Behan was arrested for graft and later failed to win re-election as sheriff. He later was appointed as the warden of the Yuma Territorial Prison and had various other government jobs until his death in 1912. (en)
  • John Harris Behan (Kansas City, 23 ottobre 1844 – Tucson, 7 giugno 1912) è stato, per ventuno mesi di un mandato di due anni, (febbraio 1881-novembre 1882) sceriffo della Contea di Cochise (Arizona), da poco costituita intorno all'importante centro minerario di Tombstone (Arizona). Behan era sceriffo al tempo della famosa sparatoria all'O.K. Corral tra i fratelli Earp (Wyatt, Virgil e Morgan) ed i Clanton-McLaury (Ike Clanton, Billy Clanton, Frank McLaury, Tom McLaury). Quando Wyatt Earp assassinò il suo aiutante Frank Stilwell (20 marzo 1882), Behan ottenne un mandato di cattura generale e tentò di fermare la Vendetta degli Earp, senza però riuscire ad arrestare Wyatt. Deposto il destintivo di sceriffo, Behan servì poi come guardia nel famoso Carcere di Yuma e combatté nella Guerra ispano-americana. Morì a Tucson (Arizona), nell'ospedale "St. Mary's Catholic", per arteriosclerosi o complicazioni dovuti alla sifilide. (it)
